An independent Australian journal about living slowly.

SLOW journal is an independent bi-annual publication that explores slow living and sustainability.

Through galleries, editorials and articles we welcome a community of contributors from across the globe who share their own understanding of what it means to live slowly.

Available world wide, we also plant 1 tree with each order via one tree planted.

The Makers

Issue Fifteen explores the life and craft of The Makers—capturing stories through photography and film, giving new life to old wares, beachcombing treasures to craft sustainable jewellery, and embracing a humble tree change from city life to a farm, which sparked the journey of a candle maker.

Our very first Makers Market celebrates a vibrant collective of authentic makers, each sharing their unique stories and pursuing their passions with purpose and heart.

Please promise you will never stop creating - The world needs your art!

The good, the bad and all the stuff in between. 

So I started living more slowly…
