Crossfields is a series of publications from London based agency Wire aiming to encourage creative debate around important, topical issues. Each edition will have its own theme and identity. The theme of the latest issue is Home.

A sense of home is widely regarded to be one of the most basic human needs – to be comfortable, secure and at ease in personal surroundings. Yet whilst evaluating what constitutes this emotion, it’s easy to become lost, leading to the question: where is home?

Crossfields Issue 2: Home, explores ideas of home, with contributions from a broad spectrum of creatives, from many different fields. The result is a collection of imaginative, personal interpretations of the subject. Contributors include: The Designers Republic, Jonathan Ellery, Why Not Associates, Paul Davis and the Big Issue Writing Group. Home is an excellent, visually driven contribution to the subject and is a worthy purchase for anyone interested in design and contemporary culture. Available from www.crossfields.org

Graphic designers, photographers, illustrators, writers, poets, film-makers and all creatives who are interesed in contributing to the next issue of Crossfields. The theme of Issue 3 is 'Ego'.

The submission deadline date is 31st March 2007. Fully detailed brief is available from www.crossfields.org
