Years ago in a quaint café in Paris, Platform was conceived as an idea which wouldn’t quite go away and so the initiative took shape in the form of a magazine. Our main focus at Platform is to preserve the past, honour the present and shape the future, while simultaneously focusing on what the talent knows rather than whom they know. Today, we find ourselves following that same vision and take pride in the fact that along the way, we have helped build portfolios and contributed to the rise of many creative minds — be it through their first editorial coverage in print or showcasing their first art series or interviewing them for their debut film or novel. Platform literally gives a platform to the deserving so they can stand tall and share their brilliance and sensibility with the rest of the world. It’s our small way of helping them take their first step to greater heights. Along with promoting the young and talented we applaud the Masters as well. Our focus is to present fresh profiles, cutting edge imagery and engaging content… In a nut shell we are a creative playground that celebrates all things arts.

As we complete 15 years, we are excited about both the future and the past. While our all-new Platform bookazine is a reflection and culmination of our evolution, our past issues constitute our legacy. Hence, to celebrate this milestone, we will also explore our extensive archive, full of intriguing stories, conversations, visuals and talent. Every week, as we revisit our repository, we will be bringing some of it to you as well, in different ways, so that you can be a part of this excursion down the memory lane with us. Stay tuned!
