\u201cPapercut has become one of Stockholm\u2019s most influential independent stores.\u201d<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Papercut x The Unusual Barcelona & The Unusual Travel Guide Madrid<\/h6>\n

The presence of The Unusual Barcelona<\/em> and The Unusual Travel Guide Madrid<\/em> at Papercut<\/em> is much more than an international distribution: it is a meeting of two independent projects that share the same editorial philosophy. Both value quality, visual storytelling and the power of printed objects as vehicles of experience and connection.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

An alternative perspective on a city as vibrant as Madrid<\/h6>\n

The third edition of The Unusual Travel Guide Madrid<\/em><\/a> is our most carefully crafted and personal guide to a city like Madrid, which has so much to tell.<\/p>\n

This edition has been renewed, expanded and meticulously edited, following the success of its first two instalments. Not only does it retain its original essence \u2014 a refined selection of places with soul, experiences with intention and corners that enchant \u2014 but it also delves more deeply into what really makes Madrid unique: its vibrant character, its unmistakable light, its welcoming people, and the city\u2019s infinite capacity to surprise at every turn.<\/p>\n

\u201cDesigned for curious travellers, lovers of design and culture, this guide is an invitation to look at Madrid with fresh eyes.\u201d<\/h2>\n

Designed for curious travellers, lovers of design, culture and authenticity, this guide is an invitation to look at Madrid with fresh eyes. And as a special new feature, it includes the personal recommendations of the renowned artist and designer Jaime Hayon<\/strong><\/a>, who shares his favourite spots in the city: from creative spaces to corners endowed with inspiration.<\/p>\n

What will you find in this 3rd edition?<\/strong><\/p>\n

– Over 400 carefully selected recommendations organised by neighbourhood.<\/p>\n

– New inclusions that reflect the evolution of the city: cultural spaces, concept stores, caf\u00e9s, restaurants, creative workshops, bookshops, art galleries and hotels.<\/p>\n

– An editorial narrative that accompanies you like a friend who knows the city well.<\/p>\n

– A design guide printed on premium Fedrigoni<\/em> papers, presented in recyclable PET vacuum packaging. Every copy comes with a postcard specially designed for this edition.<\/p>\n

A visual and narrative tribute to Barcelona<\/h6>\n

Just like the Madrid edition, the Barcelona publication has been curated by Cecilia Camacho<\/em>, editor-in-chief and creative director of CC\/magazine<\/em>. This new edition is a statement of intent: to see, feel and live Barcelona from an aesthetic, emotional and honest perspective.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis 4th edition becomes a magazine & guide that marries inspiration and recommendations.\u201d<\/h2>\n

An evolutionary leap: from alternative guide to magazine and guide<\/strong><\/p>\n

What began as an alternative guide for curious travellers now solidifies as a hybrid editorial format that expands its ambition and depth.<\/p>\n

The 4th edition of The Unusual Barcelona<\/em> represents a significant transformation in its approach: 128 pages printed on premium Fedrigoni papers, with Japanese binding and visible spine, and presented in recyclable PET vacuum packaging. Each copy comes with a postcard specially designed for this edition.<\/p>\n

Behind this format, refined down to the smallest detail, there is a clear philosophy: to make the reading and exploration experience memorable. The guide becomes a magazine you can savour at home, read like one explores a book of art and culture; but also a guide you can carry with you, accompanying you as you explore the city from a new perspective.<\/p>\n

Over 400 selected recommendations with discernment and sensitivity<\/h6>\n

One of the great values of this magazine?guide is its curation. It is not about amassing addresses, but about carefully choosing over 400 updated recommendations organised by district and category. You will find restaurants, caf\u00e9s, bakeries, wine bars, shops, galleries, museums, hotels, bookshops, artist workshops and those secret corners known only to those who deeply love this city.<\/p>\n

Everything is designed to offer an intimate and contemporary map of Barcelona. A guide that not only serves the visitor arriving for the first time, but also the Barcelonian looking to reconnect with their city from another sensibility. Because there are many Barcelonas within Barcelona, and this publication is an invitation to discover those that speak to us, inspire us and are part of our most personal view of the city.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Voices that inspire: interviews and creative visions of the city<\/strong><\/p>\n

What truly distinguishes The Unusual Barcelona<\/em> from any other guide is the incorporation of local voices that bring a personal and emotional viewpoint.<\/p>\n

In its pages you will find interviews and features with significant figures in the world of culture, art, design and the Barcelona lifestyle. People like Nuria Val<\/em>, Helena Agust\u00ed (La Culture House)<\/em>, Ver\u00f2nica Fuerte (Hey Studio)<\/em> or In\u00e9s Sans (Casa Bonay)<\/em> share their favourite places, those that form part of their personal map of the city.<\/p>\n

These narratives offer much more than recommendations: they open windows onto a Barcelona lived, felt and reinterpreted from creative perspectives. All contribute a different view of Barcelona and help build a collective, more personal and diverse vision of the city.<\/p>\n

Features and interviews that capture the soul of Barcelona<\/strong><\/p>\n

Alongside the recommendations, the magazine includes articles and interviews.<\/p>\n

All of them invite you to view Barcelona from various angles: art, architecture, design, everyday life\u2026 Content crafted to inspire, move and connect with what makes this city unique.<\/p>\n

This edition includes interviews and features with figures such as photographer Salva L\u00f3pez<\/em>, artist Chidy Wayne<\/em>, the architecture studio Mesura<\/em> and the experimental floral stylists Flowers by Bornay<\/em>. Their visions and testimonies bring unique perspectives that emotionally connect with the reader and capture Barcelona\u2019s most authentic and vibrant soul.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

If that\u2019s not enough, it also features photographs from admired photographers such as Martina Matencio (@lalovenenoso)<\/em>, Fabrizio Colque<\/em>, Guillaume Lavrut<\/em>, Marta Vidal<\/em>, among others; an illustrated map by Carmen Casado (@holasoykaaa)<\/em> and inspirational quotes sprinkled throughout its pages, among other novelties that enrich both the reading and the visual experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Unusual Barcelona includes interviews, features and voices of local artists, designers and creatives.\u201d<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n
