Marco Velardi (Apartmento Magazine) + Christopher Nying (Our Legacy)

The Avant/Garde Diaries presents "Marching Ahead" with Marco Velardi, Editor-in-Chief of Apartamento Magazine, and Christopher Nying, co-founder/creative director of Our Legacy. The video explores the creative commonalities and visions that bond the two, and affords us a glimpse into their process.

Besides publishing the magazine, Marco Velardi, at his very young age of 28, works as a creative consultant, lecturer and freelance writer for publications like The New York Times’ T Magazine and Interview Magazine.
