MacGuffin No 08: The Desk explores the desk as both a functional object and a personal stage for creativity, work, and daily rituals. This issue of the biannual design and crafts magazine uncovers the stories hidden in and around desks—from iconic designs and improvised workspaces to the habits and personalities that shape them. Through essays, interviews, and rich visual material, The Desk offers a thoughtful and collectible perspective on one of the most familiar objects in everyday life.

At Misc Store we also carry MacGuffin No 15: The Stitch and No 13: The Letter.

MacGuffin is a publication platform dedicated to the hidden lives of ordinary objects. Each issue focuses on a single thing, using essays, visual work, and research to explore how it is shaped by—and in turn shapes—culture, language, technology, and daily use.

At Misc Store, the magazine sits comfortably alongside objects and publications that invite closer attention to the everyday—where familiar things reveal unexpected layers when looked at more closely.
