How to submit to the modernist

the modernist magazine is published three times a year. You can submit an article or a photo story at any time, although we do work ahead of schedule on a theme-by-theme basis.

Our next call for submissions will be posted mid-September 2025...so watch this space.

If you have an idea, we'd love to hear from you - please get in touch if you are interested in submitting an article. We look for essays or photo stories (around 1,000 words) that focus on set themes related to twentieth century architecture and design. 

Our main focus is twentieth century architecture, as well as art and design related to architecture such as interiors, glass, murals, furniture etc. These can be from anywhere in the world, but we do like to feature lesser-known examples.  As always, we invite contributors to interpret our advertised themes in their own inimitable manner and with a broad imagination.

Please note, the modernist magazine is a not for profit social enterprise run on a shoestring, and relies on the generosity of like minded people and fellow travellers to share their ideas, words and pictures with us and our readers. There is unfortunately no budget available to pay fees for contributions as articles and photographs are requested in a spirit of community and friendly collaboration.

We might not be able to reply to every submission. Our apologies if you do not receive a response.

For further information and general submission enquiries please contact the editor editor@modernist-society.org

Thank you

the modernist
