Monocle Magazine
Monocle is the creation of Tyler Brul�, the founder of Wallpaper* magazine. With design and travel elements similar to Wallpaper, Monocle adds politics, economics, fashion, property and even manga cartoons.

Now entering it's fourth year, Monocle's non-print media, available on iTunes, includes well-produced…

It's also refreshing that it's inclusive of both heterosexual and same-sex unions as well as multi-ethnic couples.

Yet I actually enjoy reading this one*- it's got a good mix of do-it-yourself projects and inspiring photos of homes, plus the font they use makes me want to take up calligraphy. (*We also are quite fond of them because they listed us in one of their first magazines as a top website for home furnishings, so that means they have…

Wallpaper* Retail Di...
Wallpaper* Magazine is launching an extensive retail directory, which can be seen in both the November issue of Wallpaper*, and online later today. The directory will not only feature fashion and home furnishing must-sees, but other retail categories as well and will no doubt be a indispensable resource for travelers and shoppers alike.

Frame Magazine
Oh my, this is expensive but it's a really great resource. Ton's of furniture and design photos and designer interviews. And, if you order a year's subscription you get a free Marcel Wanders t-shirt.
