Welcome to TOPIA
Where anything goes – as long as it’s good
TOPIA is your guide to an extraordinary world in metamorphosis
Welcome to the mashup world of TOPIA: a kaleidoscopic new culture, nature and positive impact magazine spotlighting the remarkable people – and creatures – keeping the planet cool. Packed with matters that impact everyone from design to conservation, it’s for anyone who wants to be inspired by good stories. We like to say it’s a place “where anything goes – as long as it’s good”.
A richly representative place where different voices – including those from nature – can tell their story, consider TOPIA your portal into a creative wonderland of anarchic joy, with alchemy inspired by the impossibility-denying and multicoloured mind-melt that is Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.
TOPIA
is Lewis Carroll meets Tina Fey in the canteen at National Geographic. It’s a multicoloured cabinet of curiosities, where diverse voices report from the world’s wildest edges.
The Rabbit Hole
Like a magical mystery tour of weird and wonderful stories from our extraordinary world in metamorphosis, TOPIA is a great place to get lost. The joy is in the mix. Although we are happy to guide you around our wild wonderland, feel free to choose your own adventure. Click on the Rabbit Hole randomiser at the top and bottom of the page – as many times as you like – to be inspired by a different feature each time.

Humans love stories. So Our Mission is simple. We use the power of creativity to empower others. We want to engage curious and downright perplexed minds in what’s important by foraging for and telling incredible tales with brilliant storytelling, powerful visuals and editorial integrity. Because…
