"Yards. Acres. Heaps. Oceans.
This edition of Offie Mag is about SPACE.
Not the kind billionaires are trying to holiday in, but the kind that’s vital to our enjoyment of our time on this here earth.
Across a hundred pages, ISSUE SEVENTEEN explores both the meta and the physical. Bedrooms and boardrooms. Dancefloors and the flaws of the dance. Who’s taking it up, who needs to give some up, and who — by creating their own — has created space for others.
Inside:
keiyaA on rediscovering creative space, filling Corsica Studios — a South London venue we’re soon set to lose, in Elephant & Castle, a place some feel has already been lost.
Mad Professor on Ariwa Sounds — a room turned studio turned cornerstone of Black British music. Nearly fifty years on, still standing. Proof that longevity is its own kind of resistance.
A Q&A interview with Stella Zekri on playing vinyl exclusively, building intentional queer spaces, and why “taste first, technique after” still wins."
