Brownbook Magazine Issue 69 (the Tokyo Issue) is available now on loremnotipsum.com. Brownbook celebrates its 16th year in print by creating a new issue dedicated to Tokyo.

Inside you’ll find guides to Tokyo’s halal cuisine and buoyant curry culture, and a look at Muslim life during the holy month of Ramadan. There are interviews with Noh actress Soraya, the first pro sumo wrestler from Africa, Ōsunaarashi and the brand founder of Unas Tokyo, Yazeed Ahmad. You’ll also find architectural articles covering everything from the mosques of Japan to the shelf-pod house that’s a treasure trove of Islamic literature.

After a break of several years, Brownbook returns with a new direction. This new edition examines the Middle East diaspora in Tokyo. ‘The relationship between the East and the West has been discussed extensively; we wanted to share stories that reflect relations between the East and Middle East. What does the image of the region look like in Japan?’

Aside from that change, those familiar with the earlier iteration of the magazine will recognise its interest in architecture, fashion, culture and art. And while it is visually familiar too, the whole thing has been given a design polish courtesy of indie specialist Alex Hunting (Kinfolk, Kindling, Courier et al).

Brownbook is a bi-monthly magazine that acts as an urban guide to the Middle East and North Africa. The magazine has endured a decade within its field, researching hundreds of cities in the region and Arab diasporas around the world. Over the ten years of publishing, the magazine in its own pace has gone through radical editorial and design changes, but maintained its stand first as an observer of the region’s urban evolution. The magazine focuses on three main genres: Interviews, Architecture & Cities.
