Our Spaces
From global discovery online to real-world experiences in print.
At Unique Magazines, our website connects readers around the world with thousands of mainstream, specialist and independent magazines. Our physical home in the North East gives people the opportunity to experience that world of print in a completely different way.
We’ve created three dedicated spaces, each designed with a different purpose. Whether you’re here to browse and discover, get creative, attend an event or share a conversation, our spaces bring people closer to magazines and the ideas and people behind them.
Together, The Mag Room, The Mag Studio and The Mag Lounge are helping us create a physical home for print, creativity and connection.

Three spaces, each offering a different way to experience the world of magazines.
The Mag Room
A space to slow down, browse and discover.
Home to hundreds of full-facing magazines, The Mag Room has been designed to make discovering print part of the experience. Browse mainstream favourites alongside independent, specialist and international titles, explore our curated collections and find something you might never have thought to search for online.
The Mag Studio
A space to create, learn and connect.
The Mag Studio is our dedicated creative and events space, bringing people together through workshops, talks, live experiences and collaboration.
It’s home to The Mag Studio Makes and Sessions, The Curation Club and a growing programme of activity with students, universities, publishers and the wider creative community.
The Mag Lounge
A space for stories, ideas and conversation.
The Mag Lounge is our dedicated podcast and conversation space, giving publishers, creatives, students and collaborators somewhere to share their experiences, ideas and stories.
Through podcasts and creative conversations, it gives us another way to introduce people to the voices behind magazines, creativity and print.
More Than Just Rooms
These spaces are different, but they’re all part of the same idea: creating more ways for people to connect with print.
You might discover a magazine in The Mag Room, hear from the person who created it in The Mag Lounge, or use its pages as inspiration during an experience in The Mag Studio. Together, the spaces allow magazines to become more than something we simply sell.
