Discover the design secrets of Tonic, one of South Africa’s leading design teams and guest editors of VISI 57, on sale from 12 October 2011.
With their 2011 Absolut VISI Designer of the Year Award, Greg Gamble and Philippe van der Merwe of Tonic won the privilege of becoming editors of one issue of the magazine. VISI 57 features great South African decor, design and architecture through their eyes and under their editorial theme: the hidden secrets of great design.
