Konfekt Issue 2

Konfekt offers inspiring, inviting interiors, intrepid reporting and elegant fashion reportage.

In Issue 2

1. How to flambé (Finnish style).

That is, cut with jallu brandy. A tutorial over the stove with actress Alma Pöysti, who stars in the recent biopic of Moomin creator Tove Jansson.


2. How to rewrite the rules of fashion retail.

A conversation with the Berlin-based founders of Gembalies, a brand that uses salons to engage (and gauge) its customers. It turns out that getting to know your clientele is a winning ticket.

3. The call of the sea.

Take to the waves with artist and fashion designer Marguerite Bartherotte, who works in a bosky alfresco studio on the tip of the Cap Ferret peninsula in France.

4. How to play town and country mouse.

We introduce a Parisian couple who have decamped to Lisbon, acquired a faded urban 18th-century palácio and built a sleek simple timber seaside cabin on the beach.

5. A lesson in mixing the perfect shakerato.

The iced espresso is a staple of Italian zinc countertops and ideal to put a spring in your step on balmy days.Missed our big debut? The launch issue ofKonfektmagazine is available to buyhere.
