Fast Company Names New Creative Leadership

It’s all systems grow at Fast Company, which today announced a slate of new hires (remember those?). Taking over at the creative helm of the magazine, which just published its 150th issue (pictured), will be Florian Bachleda, who replaces outgoing art director Dean Markadakis, while Leslie dela Vega has been appointed photography director, replacing Meghan Hurley. Bachleda and dela Vega start at Fast Company on November 8. Other recent additions to the masthead include senior editor Nancy Cook from Newsweek and staff editor Emily Biuso from The New York Times Magazine.

A former president of the Society of Publication Designers, Bachleda served as creative director of titles including Latina and Vibe after honing his art directing chops at everywhere from Entertainment Weekly to McKinsey & Company.
