Get Into HOW
• Enter one of HOW's annual design competitions: Self-Promotion Competition (late March deadline); International Design Competition (late September deadline); or Interactive Design Competition (early November deadline). Read more about competitions.

• Put us on your mailing list. Make us aware that you're out there by including us in promotional mailings, as you would a client or prospect.

• Get to know HOW's editorial calendar. Familiarize yourself with the recurring issue themes, and target your pitches to a specific subject that's the focus of an upcoming issue.

• Send information about a new project you think is noteworthy, along with a JPG or PDF image. Please note in the subject line of your email that your submission is for Behind the Design.

• Regular HOW columns that feature designers' work include Disciplines, LOOK and Behind the Design. These columns generally profile a project from a particular angle—look at back issues for guidance. If you've completed a project that fits the topic of a specific column, let us know. We require a digital image of the project.

• Consider writing for the magazine. If you're interested in a freelance writing assignment, get to know our editorial calendar and check out our Writer's Guidelines. Then submit an article pitch, including an opening paragraph, outline and previous writing samples.

• Submit digital images your innovative office design for consideration in our Workspace column.

Don't be discouraged if we can't include your firm in an article right now. We have a limited number of pages to fill, and we must run the information we deem of most interest to our readers.
