Wallpaper* City Guide Liverpool

Imagine our delight when we found a Wallpaper* City Guide dedicated to Liverpool - our home city! The minute it landed in the Utility warehouse we couldn't keep our mitts off this pocket sized beauty packed full all our favourite places. Amongst the pages of beautiful architecture, historical sights and the best places to rest your head is a double page spread dedicated to Utility! With pride fit to burst we must give the guys at Wallpaper a huge thanks for the nod and the stunning image of our Home Store on Bold Street. Here you can spy some our favourite products such as String Shelving, the Gubi Grasshopper Floor Lamp and a healthy sprinkling of Eames Plastic Chairs from Vitra. What more could we ask for with our friends Puschka who are also noted as one of the must places to dine! Eight clear sections reveal shopping, hotels, landmarks, escapes and urban life which are all easy to thumb your way through. We have road tested many of these places (in our spare time) and it definitely gets a thumbs up from all of us and feel it captures our charming city perfectly.

Foldable City Guides

For those who love travelling to distant lands or simply exploring areas of cities untouched by tourists then these charming foldable city maps, from Herb Lester, will take you on an unforgettable journey. With a collection spanning from Barcelona At Ease to Untamed London and Supertime Amsterdam, each offer a unique and tailored glimpse into a world only known by natives and locals or are simply forgotten. Pocket sized, these guides unfold to reveal their secrets of dimly-lit bars, beautifully kept parks and vintage markets. On the reverse a map pinpoints those listed helping you on your journey. What really gives these city maps their individual character, though, is the witty descriptions and customised illustrations by guest designers which help capture the essence of its subject - so lovely they are you won't want to crease them!

Wow, it looks fab!
