Launched in February 2007, Monocle is a global briefing covering international affairs, business, culture and design. Headquartered in London with bureaux in Tokyo, Sydney, Zürich and New York, Monocle appears 10 times a year in print and is updated constantly at monocle.com. Developed for an international audience hungry for information across a variety of sectors, Monocle offers a comprehensive global briefing under a single editorial brand. In print and online, writers and photographers are dispatched to over 50 countries every issue to deliver stories on forgotten states, alluring political figures, emerging brands, fresh forces in popular culture and inspiring design solutions. This year Design Miami staged an installation at Salone del Mobile that created a public atelier for emerging designers to make and show their work. Monocle's design editor Sarah Balmond looks at CRAFT PUNK's celebration of contemporary craftsmanship.

Monocle is launching a new series of travel guide books that you can buy in our shops (including online). We start with London and New York and in the coming weeks these will be joined by Hong Kong and Tokyo. Each 148-page guide gives you our take on the city and the things that make us excited about it – from local retail to fun cafés, good runs to neighbourhood walks. Quirky, opinionated and revealing, they are the guide books you need to pack. [Available to order now at The Monocle Shop.](/shop/books-and-music/travel-guides/)
