Contribute to Ephemera Atelier

Ephemera Atelier is a space dedicated to design, visual culture, and thoughtful creative storytelling. We invite writers, designers, artists, photographers, researchers, and thinkers to contribute their voices to our evolving collection of essays, interviews, visual narratives, and reflections.

What We’re Looking For

We publish slow, intentional content that bridges disciplines — design, art, philosophy, identity, aesthetics, and culture. If you have a story, idea, or visual project that deserves a timeless platform, we’d love to hear from you.

We welcome contributions in the following formats:

  • Personal essays on creative practice, process, or philosophy
  • Visual explorations (photographic essays, sketchbook series, studio tours)
  • Interviews with designers, artists, or cultural voices
  • Think pieces that explore trends, ethics, or movements in art and design
  • Short reflections and poetic interpretations of creative life
  • Experimental formats that blend words and visuals in unique ways

We care less about credentials and more about clarity, originality, and the ability to make someone stop and think.

Submission Guidelines

Before submitting, please read the following:

  • Articles should be original and not published elsewhere.
  • Word count can range from 600–2,000 words depending on style and format.
  • Visual submissions must include high-resolution images and captions.
  • We reserve the right to edit for clarity, tone, or length while preserving your voice.
  • We may also archive or highlight your work on our social platforms and newsletters.

If you’re unsure whether your idea is the right fit, feel free to pitch it first.

How to Submit

Please send your pitch or complete draft, along with a short bio and any relevant links or images, to:

Email: [email protected]
Website: ephemeraatelier.com

Include “Submission: [Your Article Title]” in the subject line.

We respond to all submissions within 10 business days. If selected, we will work closely with you to refine the piece for publication.

Contributor Credits

We currently operate as an independent platform, and while we may not be able to offer monetary compensation for every piece, we take great care in presenting your work with editorial attention, proper credit, and visual polish. Your contribution will remain part of a curated, evergreen archive.

Let’s Build Thoughtful Stories

Ephemera Atelier isn’t about trends or algorithms — it’s about beauty, insight, and creative sincerity. If that sounds like your rhythm, we’d be honored to feature your work.

We look forward to hearing from you.
