Anna Masó – Director, Founder and Editor-In-Chief

This photography book by Sofia Coppola brings together a carefully curated selection of images that reflect her aesthetic universe: intimate, delicate, and cinematic. A visual work that captures everyday moments, nostalgia, and beauty through her distinctive personal perspective.

Carlota Cuesta – Creative Director

I like it because it’s not your typical linear story; it’s like a puzzle the whole time, and you have to keep thinking. Each character sees reality differently, and that blows my mind because everything literally changes depending on their perspective. Plus, it has this elegant, slightly dark vibe—nothing basic—and there’s a kind of chaos, but at the same time, everything is incredibly well thought out. It’s one of those books that forces you to engage with it and understand it; it’s not passive, and that’s what really hooks me.

Mora Giordana – Fashion Director

A snapshot of the Los Angeles cultural scene of the 1970s, seen through two very different lenses: Joan Didion and Eve Babitz, quintessential frenemies. A fictionalized biography of the friendship and rivalry between two cultural icons of the late 20th century, interspersed with anecdotes about the era.

Eduard Gil – Culture and Partnerships Strategist

The Picture of Dorian Gray is one of the most celebrated novels by the Irish author Oscar Wilde. The story explores themes of vanity, beauty, and moral corruption through the life of a young and handsome man who becomes obsessed with the idea of eternal youth. The novel remains strikingly relevant today, as it reflects society’s ongoing fixation on physical beauty, image, and the fear of aging, reminding readers of the dangers of prioritizing appearance over integrity and the inevitable cost of living without moral responsibility.

Álvaro Ramos – Global Features Editor

With this one, Brandon Taylor is depicting the society that has founded the predominant culture worldwide as broken. Iowa serves as a container of multitudes of characters that reflects the difficulties of living in a nation (and a world) that is carried by consumerism. Through dance, art and sexuality a youth is defined by their traumas and experience, is raw and effective at the same time. A fiercely intimidating text that juxtaposes the last gasp of the great bourgeoisie in American society with the social reality that access to money required money, all through a queer lens.

Isabel Martín – Graphic Designer

In this book, Delphine de Vigan focuses on something very personal: the thin line between what we show and what we truly live. Through the story of a family exposed on social media, the book poses an uncomfortable but necessary question: at what point do we stop being present and start constructing a version of our lives for others? In a world where everything is shared, De Vigan reminds us of the importance of pausing, observing, and being aware of the impact this exposure has, especially on those we love most. This book invites us to reconnect with reality, to protect what is intimate, and to nurture relationships beyond the screen.
