About Pages of Magazine

While our tagline is “culture and urbanism” we’re interested in everything and anything. Really! We like good stories and strong, individual points of view. We’re not a magazine about food or architecture or philosophy or science, but about all of those things and about none of those things.

PAGES OF is a place for specialists to write about the things they don’t specialise in, and for photographers and illustrators to show the work that they do for love, when they aren’t being commissioned to make it.

We also feel strongly that there are too many barriers of access to the printed page, too much reliance on the voice of the expert. Not only is this boring, but it excludes many people who have the most interesting stories to tell. This is why we not only work with groups who don’t often appear in magazines (teenage youth groups and kids from refugee camps), but why each issue features a regular column called “everyone has a story” where we ask ordinary people to tell us about their extraordinary lives.

It’s often said that you can’t be all things to all people, and perhaps that’s true. But it certainly doesn’t hurt to try. Intricate in detail or vast in scope, anything goes as long as it’s good and brings a new way of looking to even the most familiar of subjects. Perhaps more than anything, we hope the stories you read in PAGES OF are stories you won’t read anywhere else.

About Issue 1
PAGES OF is an oversize format at 320 x 255 mm and printed on high-quality newsprint paper (MFC Satin 60gsm, for all you paper junkies out there). PAGES OF is light enough to be rolled up and carried around in your bag until you’ve finished reading it, while still retaining a print quality that means you’d be proud to have it share space with your glossiest coffee table books.

Issue 1 clocks in at 88 pages and includes: a gorgeous photo essay about two twin sisters in Paris by Maja Daniels; an e-mail essay between two psychologists trying to get to grips with sexuality; a provocative piece looking at the relationship between online trolls, homeopathy, and the placebo effect by artist Hestia Peppe; a not-quite how-to guide to making your own beehive butter by chef Josh Pollen; a tour of Paris’ alternative art scene by Rémi Mercier; a slightly bonkers but very funny story about a stapler by 18-year-old Joe Winters; and a look by Tom Jeffreys at how nationhood, notions of time, and identity are all wrapped up in the beautiful game of cricket.
