Works That Work Works That Work is an international magazine for the curious mind, intending to surprise its readers with a rich mix of diverse subjects connected by the theme of unexpected creativity that improved our lives. It publishes original, in-depth essays and stories on subjects connected with design, presenting projects that challenge and change the way you perceive them.

A self-described accumulation of design-related stories that would make good dinner discussions with friends, this second instalment of ‘Works That Work’ follows a thread of interest that begins with Kester Freriks’ focus on the noise-reducing landscape surrounding Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport, then sees Ed van Hinte recounting the remarkable story of the Boeing 747, which was designed around the specifications of the intermodal container, the complex global impact of which is described by Marc Levinson. Globalisation is further investigated by Suzanne Wales and Peter Bil’ak, through smuggling, trade and the portable lamp, and Hans Wilschut finds fake trees in Johannesburg.
