As a practice fundamentally concerned with the reproduction and distribution of language, graphic design—The National Grid suggests—is significantly more interesting, and more impactful, than purely market-led or ‘value added’ narratives tend to imply. Not quite ‘magazine’ and not quite ‘academic journal’, The National Grid attempts to chart a path through the murky wasteland between professional practice and academia, art and design.The National Grid was originally published across eight issues between 2005 and 2012, edited and designed by Luke Wood and Jonty Valentine. Revived in 2025 with the generous support of the University of Canterbury’s School of Fine Arts, the periodical returns under the editorship of Luke Wood, Katie Kerr, and Matthew Galloway, and is co-published by Ilam Press and GLORIA Books.The National Grid #9 takes on the current climate of design education, looks back to Pasifika publishing histories and sketches out diagrams for possible futures—and more! It features contributions from Hana Pera Aoake, Luke Shaw, Sheahan Huri, Cameron Tonkinwise, Andrea Low, Wanda Iremia-Allan, Paula Legel, Nell May, Tyrone Ohia, Max Quinn-Tapara, Eva Charlton, David Bennewith, and Warren Olds.Editors:Luke Wood (Ōtautahi Christchurch) is a senior lecturer in graphic design at the University of Canterbury’s School of Fine Arts.
