Kinfolk Magazine – Issue 54

Kinfolk Magazine Issue 54 (the Party Issue) is available now on loremnotipsum.com. This issue of Kinfolk, which publishes just in time for the holiday season, draws on our origins as a guide for small gatherings and celebrates coming together—whether round a table, at a wedding, for cocktails or during the holidays—as a meaningful pursuit.

Of course, the art of togetherness can be a little more complicated for those hosting. To make the process easier, we’ve approached creative cooks, florists and artists for their expert ideas, tips and advice, creating a 64-page section full of inspiration for your next party. You’ll find ideas for every occasion, from simple recipes for new drinks to serve on a Saturday night to advice on decorating a low-key (and low-cost) wedding.

Elsewhere in the issue, we meet A.G. Cook, the hyperpop music producer who makes a case that even the most overplayed tunes on the radio can be feats of intense creative exploration. In Toronto, Matty Matheson shares insights from his experience as a chef, restauranteur and actor. Plus, we meet a muralist, ask whether millennials have ruined weddings, tour a restored Roman villa, and check in with a curator, a baby name consultant, a comedian and more.

Kinfolk is a slow lifestyle magazine published by Ouur that explores ways for readers to simplify their lives, cultivate community and spend more time with their friends and family. Founded in 2011, Kinfolk is now the leading independent lifestyle magazine for young creative professionals and also produces international editions in Japan, China, Korea and Russia. Published quarterly, Kinfolk maintains a vibrant contributor base from Copenhagen to Cape Town. Every element of Kinfolk—the features, photography, and general aesthetics—are consistent with the way we feel entertaining should be: simple, uncomplicated, and less contrived. Kinfolk is the marriage of our appreciation for art and design and our love for spending time with family and friends.
