In the 2023 Bolia journal, we embraced a more editorial stance to the publication. Our ambition was not merely to create to a catalogue for sales, but to craft a journal worthy of gracing coffee tables around the world.

The editorial content translates a deeper storytelling throughout the journal, inviting readers into the captivating design universe of Bolia. Here, the voices of our designers resonate, contributing with profound insights into their creative processes and the genesis of our designs, unraveling how the designs came to life. The editorial approach translates into our design of the journal itself - evolving from a traditional catalogue into a magazine-like aesthetic. It is a deliberate choice, intended to enhance the reader’s experience.

The 276-page journal is translated into four languages - English, Spanish, French and German, ensuring that Bolia’s design stories resonate with audiences worldwide and fostering a truly global dialogue on aesthetic excellence.

Text is set in Comorant, a typeface that seamlessly blends classical elegance with modern flair. From its meticulously crafted counters and stylishly drawn serifs to its velvety smooth curves and refined accents, Comorant exudes sophistication in every detail. Whether rendered in small sized or enlarged, this typeface remains highly legible and exquisitely refined, making it the ideal choice for articulating Bolia’s aesthetic design narratives.

Our grid based layout system is designed for a captivating and unique experience. Every spread is distinct, mirroring the dynamic and unpredictable and adding an engaging and vibrant expression throughout the book.

Printed in aproximately 320,000 copies and distributed across every Bolia store in Europe, it serves as an integral part of the Bolia shopping experience. With the same meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship found in every furniture and home accessories in stores or at Bolia.com, the journal embodies the essence of Bolia’s design philosophy. The journal stands as a testament to our commitment to excellence where each page is a canvas, meticulously curated to inspire and elevate the imagination.
