OUR SUMMER ISSUE IS OUT NOW
Konfekt is an elegant and expansive quarterly magazine launched in 2020 by the creators of Monocle. Edited in London by Sophie Grove – with bureaux in Paris, Tokyo and Zürich – its essays, interviews and deep reportage cover the worlds of fashion, food, craft, travel and design.
Focusing on unhurried prose with plenty of long, lingering suppers and brisk, reviving swims – Konfekt is a celebration of spirited hosts, inimitable style, hikes in the wilds and beautifully crafted things. It’s a meditation on the meaning of modern luxury and a reflection on the essence of living well.
Each issue is brimming with inspiring travel itineraries, considered interiors, tasty recipes and winning seasonal looks.
Keep up to date with all things Konfekt via our fortnightly newsletter and monthly podcast.

We’re in Dakar with designer Khadija Aisha Ba of L’Artisane. Then: we speak with Claridge’s archivist, Kate Hudson, about the hotel’s art-deco heritage. Plus: perfumer Maya Njie, who blends precision with deep personal narratives.
Our travel themed issue offers long-reads and lots of sun-drenched escapism to inspire and inform the season’s journeys and adventures. From a whizz across Lake Zürich in a svelte runabout to a dive into the azure Adriatic after an epic train journey, the latest edition of Konfekt is an ode to those fresh and free aquatic moments that only summer can offer.
As an extra treat, you can now buy a Konfekt subscription and have the next four issues in the series delivered straight to your door – wherever you are in the world.
