The World Of Interiors: November 2026

The World of Interiors’ fondness for obscurity and unearthing forgotten architectural treasures from around the globe has earned it cult-like status among many who wouldn’t ordinarily pick up an interiors magazine. It is a chateau among hovels in the land of glossy interiors magazines. Despite the luxury advertising and ample dose of villas, manors and modernist rarities, there’s always something about the WoI that feels unaffected by the aspirationalism saturating the pages of its peers.

This November 2026 edition leads with WoI’s annual ‘Art & Antiques’ supplement; this time, it’s a 52-page affair, showcasing a covetable selection of decorative art and homeware, and delivering reports on exhibitions in London and Oxford, including an intimate look at the personal ephemera of 20th century artists at London’s Two Poems Gallery. Elsewhere, Will Ferreira Dyke pays homage to the late artist Barton Benes, a first-generation AIDS veteran whose curio-filled Greenwich Village studio is now on show at the North Dakota Museum of Modern Art, and a look at the imperfectly preserved Lower East Side loft of Fluxus artists Nam June Paik and partner Shigeko Kubota.

On the Journal:
At Work With Emily Tobin: ‘World of Interiors is the original indie mag. Much imitated but never bettered. Our archive is extraordinary, every interior you’ve ever glimpsed on social media has most likely featured in the magazine over our 45 year history.’
