Founded by Jeremy Leslie as a blog about editorial design in 2006, magCulture opened as a shop in Clerkenwell in 2015 (just half a mile away from the presses that produced The Gentleman’s Magazine in 1731, which was the first time a publication used the word magazine), stocking over 600 titles from around the world. Great care is taken in the presentation of all these titles – the shop is a celebration of design after all, so it’s only right that all the amazing design created by the publishers gets a chance to shine. As well as stocking all the mags you could possibly want, the shop hosts regular events so it’s a real haven for indie publishing.
