The ReadyMade Story
In December 2001, Grace Hawthorne and Shoshana Berger launched ReadyMade to serve a niche that existing do-it-yourself magazines weren’t reaching: 20 and 30-something trendsetters who love to make things and crave good design. ReadyMade was an overnight success. Celebrating innovation and a "green" sensibility, the magazine has won an ardent following among readers who respond to its 21st century values and spunky voice.
ReadyMade took its name from avant-garde artist Marcel Duchamp. He coined the phrase "ready-made" to describe commonplace artifact, such as a bicycle wheel, displayed as a work of art.
ReadyMade inspires readers to design and customize their life.
