Monocle, June 2026

Not the Harvard-produced satire of the ’60s, Monocle reports the parts of international affairs, policy, culture and social trends that are relevant to people also interested in furniture design, exotic travel and development theory. If this is you, then you’ve just found a new reason to get up in the morning. Newly created by the same team originally responsible for Wallpaper*, reading Monocle will make yourself more interesting. A cosmopolitan internationalist look at the world – a magazine for the thinking person.

In this issue:

Monocle’s June issue is now out. Dip in for our 18-page coffee special (and discover 25 of our favourite cafés), meet seven experts from around the world offering tips on how to become a great collector of art, design and even dinosaurs, and stop off for a conversation with Le Figaro’s editor in chief. Plus: we visit the firm at the centre of the UAE’s arms industry, take a road trip along Spain’s Costa Brava and introduce this year’s emerging stars in art, politics, architecture and beyond with Monocle’s Class of 2026.
