IRL is a new annual magazine in which the design of each issue is entrusted to a different designer. This first issue is handled by Émilie Ferrat (espace Ness), a specialist in editorial design, print design and visual identity development.

This first edition is focused on money. How do you make a living as a graphic designer? Illustrator? Or media designer? What is a fair price for our activities? What working conditions are we, as young professionals, prepared to accept to launch a career based on taste, interest and passion? Can we make a living from artists' residencies and public subsidies? How do you assert your authors' rights?

To these questions, nine guests provide concrete answers based on their own experience, with generosity, pragmatism and humour.
