Monocle travel guide
From a three-Michelin star restaurant to a new mobile kitchen in Berlin, we take a quick tour of what’s new and noteworthy for a trip to Germany.
Teutonic lights
Monocle crosses the real Germany to discover the people shaping its future. Our journey aims to update outdated notions of the country’s character and global outlook, profiling the nation’s innovators.
Printed perfection
Germany produces some of the finest art books in the world, from picture-laden coffee table tomes to aesthetic theory. Monocle went to Berlin to pore over a buoyant and diverse publishing industry.
Soft focus
Since the fall of the Wall, Germany’s foreign office has become a master of gently promoting ‘Brand Germany’, with Berlin as the jewel in its decidely understated crown.
Double vision
In a fickle art world, gallery owners Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers have nurtured artists for 26 years. Their old-fashioned, persistent approach has paid off, making them ones to watch.
Monocle travel guide
Basque culinary fireworks in Paris, bed and breakfast on the Oregon coast, a new Oslo alehouse and a Berlin foodstore to set your creative energies ablaze. This is this month’s Monocle round-up.
The lake show
We head to the suburb of Wannsee, and its popular swimming spot Strandbad, to show off our selection of smart weekend wear and grab a late summer splash.
On the edge
While “suburban” isn’t often a compliment, not all suburbs are created equal. Wannsee, on Berlin's edge, boasts high quality of life and diversity, thanks to idyllic geography and unique geopolitics.
Design/Architecture
A new entry to the tiltrotor market, the finest small naval craft, and the best portable mess kit.
