The Monocle Book of Homes is a guide to navigate between architecture and interior, with some tips on how to make the most of your living space.
The book is divided into three parts: in the first find a tour of 20 inspiring properties, from a converted cottage on an Australian island to a contemporary retreat in the middle of Jakarta, via Mexico, Finland, Lebanon and more. The second part is dedicated instead to urban developments and community-led neighborhoods, spaces that are worth more than just a stroll. We also discover the benefits of adding a touch of greenery, whether it's a full-fledged vegetable garden or a simple potted plant.

Monocle is the magazine launched in 2017 by Tyler Brûlé and considered the leading "independent" magazine in the world.
Halfway between lifestyle and current affairs, Monocle has been defined by CBS journalist Harry Forestell "a meeting between the Financial Times and Vanity Fair", or rather as a magazine able to go into the depth of the most disparate issues (from extra-luxury travel to the islands remote areas of the country, to the hottest American and world political and economic issues, passing through fashion, design and culture) without sacrificing the elegance that a beautiful paper object can give.
The magazine is designed for an international audience and jet setters and has been able to create a real community so much that it has become a brand agency with a radio, podcasts, travel guides, books and several stores around the world to its credit. (in Italy you can find the Monocle shop in Merano)
