Concessions.<br />
People say you have to make something happen if you want to be able to make your way in life.<br />
You start with a project, an idea; where you put<br />
all your heart and soul, you have a vision, a really<br />
good view of the goal you want to hit - but the<br />
thing is, the whole thing is not really working the<br />
way you would like it to. So to make it work you<br />
have to allow for concessions; have to accept the<br />
fact that by transforming the thing, it may actually<br />
finally work. The question is, how much are<br />
you ready to give away? How many concessions<br />
are you ready to make in this process, and where<br />
is the limit? What about if you make too many<br />
concessions and you’re even not able to recognize<br />
this thing as your own anymore? It may indeed<br />
feel as though it is not yours anymore, because<br />
it's too far from the vision you originally had.<br />
This is a really delicate process, and you have to<br />
be open for changes, of course; but also ready to<br />
accept that your initial idea was maybe not as<br />
good as you once thought it would be. This is<br />
not just about your project, at the end - this is<br />
also about yourself and to be able to look at your<br />
actions with some distance, and to be able to readjust.<br />
When I heard that we had to reduce 400<br />
pages of our beloved collection down to 200, I<br />
was angry and sad, because I thought if we only<br />
print 200 pages, that this is not us anymore, this<br />
is not what we created. However with a good<br />
long look at it, and seeing with an open mind<br />
the facts and the way they are, I can truly say<br />
that this Collection [Noire] is by far the best we<br />
have done yet. The content is thick-and-tight,<br />
really fits the theme, and the editorials and the<br />
interviews are just on point. Here we are, always<br />
trying to push ourselves to be able to present a<br />
beautiful product to our readers, and for once we<br />
can stand proud, and be sure that you’ll understand.<br />
We are in constant evolution, because we<br />
try to evolve with you. Thank you to everyone<br />
who has helped to make it possible this time, and<br />
god knows that they are a lot of people to name.<br />
Thank you for being fidele. I really hope you did enjoy it.<br />
Yours Nicolas<br />
