Cities
Zürich is considering artificial islands to house its growing population and there’s a global push to unearth forgotten rivers.
Fashion
We ponder whether fashion brands can sell happiness, plus the best autumn/winter looks from Margaret Howell and New Zealand's Kowtow, among others.
The list: mend your ways
If you’re tooling up to fix that wonky door or spruce up the box room, this is the kit for you.
Behind the scenes
Ruben Östlund couldn’t create his idiosyncratic – and award-winning – films without his trusted team. From make-up artist to sound engineer, they’re the backbone of the creative process.
Beware of the bear
The Nordic nations are increasingly wary of Russia. We head to Sweden to see how it is preparing to defend itself.
Economy
Mexico and Canada reveal their Nafta red lines, Sweden and Denmark feel the effects of war in Syria, and Namibia pins its hopes on uranium.
At the vanguard
Stockholm has seen increased violence and worsening segregation. But its mayor, Karin Wanngård, is leading the charge against crime and inequality – and shows no signs of giving in.
Willing and able
We meet the volunteer firefighters in Tokyo, coastguards in Stockholm and medical workers in Jerusalem who provide their enthusiastic and expert services for the common good, keeping their fellow citizens safe.
