A merry Monocle christmas

It's that time of year again my 10th Monocle christmas guide. I love seeing what Josh at Monocle gets in for the gift guide and this year was a great one I wanted to take 90% of it home which is always a good sign!

This year was a sneak peek into the front room to see what Monocle santa had left for the big day.

Monocle cover

This month I was fortunate to be asked to shoot two covers for the latest edition of Monocle the first is the front cover and the second is the design directory 2011/2012 cover.The issues main theme is "How do you jump-start Japan?" which is obviously a very poignant subject at the moment. Monocle has produced a limited edition leather support Japan bracelet with all the proceeds going to Civic Force who are helping with the relief effort after the earthquakes. Worth having a look.

Issue 43 is out now check it out.
