Ambidextrous Magazine is a project of the Stanford d.school. It is a magazine for the wider design community, which includes engineers and ethnographers, psychologists, and philosophers. Rather than focusing on promoting product, Ambidextrous exposes the people and processes involved in design.
Ambidextrous is a forum for the cross-disciplinary, cross-market community of people with an academic, professional and personal interest in design. The magazine is geared toward high subscriber participation and interaction. It is expressly designed to be informal, irreverent, and fun to read.
