For the past decade, Wallpaper* has championed
the best design. It has become the international
authority on the cutting edge and the classic, the
new and the rediscovered. It’s all about the best.
From fashion to travel, from interiors to jewellery,
and from architecture to motoring, the aesthetic
that surrounds you was first championed
by Wallpaper*. With an unrivalled stable of
international contributors and editors, distribution
in over 70 countries and unparalleled success in
reaching the design élite the world over, Wallpaper*
has gained global awareness and appeal.
Wallpaper* has attracted the world’s media
attention and is now the official commentator on
contemporary design. With regular features in
a range of national and international media outlets,
such as
The New York Times
Financial Times
and
Creative Review
to name a few, Wallpaper* is often
described as a style bible.

To Wallpaper* readers, the internal movement
of a watch is just as important as the exterior
design, so when they invest several thousand

made a discerning purchase. Watches and
jewellery play an increasing role in Wallpaper’s
editorial mix as the most delectable pieces grace
more and more pages of our creative shoots,
from beauty to interiors. Our watch features are
both provocative and interesting as we challenge
readers to consider everything from a brand’s
international status to its collectability.

about style and fun. In a jet-set life, a car
provides a getaway, an escape from timetables,
visas and security checks. Wallpaper’s motoring

concept cars to slick sports convertibles
guaranteed to turn heads. Our readers also
have an appetite for superiorly designed cars
and are keen to know about industry innovations.
Our unique and authoritative editorial, input

ahead of trends.

Wallpaper* recognises that the television is
now as much a piece of furniture as it is a gadget,
and the same care goes into choosing one as
it does into purchasing a sofa. Equally, your
choice of mobile phone says as much about
you as your watch. With iconic designers
working more and more with hi-tech
manufacturers, the choice of technology for
the home is becoming increasingly exciting,
and our interiors pages feature technological
products that seamlessly integrate into the
world of interior design, creating a whole new
shopping list for the interiors-conscious reader.
A few reader statistics
Technology friendly: 53% own an iPod and
23% have another brand of MP3 player

Wallpaper* readers take great pride in their
appearance, investing in their favourite, trusted,
internationally known brands, as well as
experimenting with more quirky, individual
brands and products, too. In a typical Wallpaper*
way, we look at the design of products and their
packaging and, importantly, how they fit into
our readers’ lives. Among our pages, readers of
both sexes find plenty of appealing products,
beauty retailers, concept spas and health resorts
to help them maintain their well-groomed looks
and to complement their lifestyle.
A few reader statistics

Wallpaper* has a distinctive new approach to
creative solutions: beautiful Bespoke* features
produced by the Wallpaper* team, using the
best photographers and stylists worldwide,
creating a new and fresh approach to products
and complementing advertisers’ display
campaigns. Wallpaper* is raising and challenging
industry standards by producing Bespoke*
spreads that look as good as the magazine’s
editorial pieces, and which are treated with
the same level of importance. They are overseen
by Wallpaper’s Editor-in-Chief and Creative
Director. For clients in all categories, Wallpaper’s
Bespoke* solution is the perfect way to
communicate stories that clients do not already
feature in their display campaigns.
Wallpaper’s new Bespoke* promotions
take creative campaigns to a whole new
level of refinement, such as in our
ten-page feature for Chivas Regal shot
in the Baccarat Museum in Paris (W*88).
