Write for us

We welcome pitches that help readers think more clearly about the shared places around them, from the small details of upkeep to the choices that make a space easier to use.

What makes a good pitch

Send a focused proposal with a working title, the central question and a short account of what readers will take away. Strong ideas have a distinct angle, explain why the subject matters and stay useful without depending on unverified claims, statistics or specialist instructions.

A clear, grounded voice

We favour precise, unhurried writing that helps readers picture a place and understand the choices involved. Comparisons, explanations and reflective guides can all fit, provided the piece has one clear purpose. Please make any relevant interests or relationships clear in your proposal.

Send your proposal

Use the Contact page to send your pitch and select the editorial question option. A proposal is not a promise of publication; we will consider its fit with the publication and the clarity of its approach.
