  • South Africa’s Hidden Hub of Creativity

    Durban’s creative scene remains relatively unknown on the world
    stage, but given the innovative businesses and projects coming out
    of this coastal city, it might soon earn its place on the map, as
    Megan and Wesley van Eeden discover.

  • Jogging Stockholm

    Surrounded by water and open
    spaces, it’s little wonder that jogging
    is such a popular pastime in Sweden’s
    capital. Jazz musician Robert Ikiz
    shares some of the best locations
    to run around the city.

  • ZÅMM Coffee, Vienna

    Every issue we turn the spotlight to one of our favourite stockists
    around the world. Nestled in central Vienna, Austria, ZÅMM Coffee
    is a shop that came about from a love of good coffee, design, and
    independent magazines. We talk to founder Maximilian Huber.

  • The Attendant, London

    An underground public toilet might not be the first place you’d expect
    to find great coffee and delicious food, but for Lagom’s first-ever Eatery
    Spotlight, we discovered just that in The Attendant — as well as a story
    of sustainability that goes far beyond upcycled urinals.

  • Wanderlust, Singapore

    Located amidst the historic and colourful district of Little India
    in Singapore, Wanderlust combines old-world charm and bold,
    modern design in an unexpected way, where a step onto each
    floor is an adventure.

  • Foundations of a Community

    Look behind the crumbling walls of Spanish House, in
    Belgrade’s Savamala district, and you’ll find a diverse
    community of artists and activists creating
    a public space shaped by local people.

  • Making waves

    A passion for surfing is what binds lifestyle and
    livelihood together for Kyle Black, founder of
    Brooklyn Surf Company. He shares what drives
    him to push the boundaries of surfboard design.

  • McBess

    Artist Matthieu Bessudo — better known as McBess — creates stunning
    black and cream illustrations inspired by 1920s cartoons, but with
    a dark twist and a knowing wink. We speak to him about his
    approach, his attitude to commercial work, and, of course, meat.

  • Carving Among Icebergs

    Talia Carlisle and Thomas Seear-Budd visit carver Kim
    Kristensen’s studio nestled high on the hills of Greenland’s
    west coast, and discover his passion for carving and
    carrying on Greenlandic tradition.

  • Sense of Place

    Barnaby Steel, of virtual reality agency Marshmallow
    Laser Feast, allows people to experience
    a world beyond human senses. We look behind
    the doors of his home and warehouse studio.

  • Milan’s Hidden Kitchen

    Most kitchens would be shut down for having insects behind their
    doors — but not Milan’s Taboolata, which has them on their menu.
    We take a look at the restaurant that boldly sets out to challenge
    Western society’s popular culinary perceptions.

  • The Sound of Silence

    Portuguese musician Pedro Marques Pereira challenges the notion
    that playing live music to accompany silent films is a thing of the
    past, bringing it boldly into the 21st century in the guise of colourful
    character Charlie Mancini.

  • On the Right Track

    Drogo Michie juggles the hectic life of an art director with the
    adrenalin-fuelled pastime of flat track bike racing. Although the two
    worlds often collide — sometimes quite literally — the sport enables him
    to find a true escape from the everyday.

  • Trading Places

    Powered by the wind and aided by the latest information technology,
    New Dawn Traders take cargo shipping back to its roots,
    as founder Alexandra Geldenhuys explains, by transporting rum
    and chocolate around the world in a traditional sail ship.

  • A Taste of Paradise

    Transport yourself to the tropics
    with Alexandra Geldenhuys’s
    favourite rum cocktail recipes.
