Palace Skateboards Guest Edits Wallpaper* October 2026 Issue
Palace Skateboards, the cult streetwear brand founded by Lev Tanju and Gareth Skewis in 2009, guest edits the October 2026 issue of Wallpaper* magazine. The cover features artwork by Ben Drury and the brand's iconic 'Tri-Ferg' logo by Fergus Purcell. The issue spotlights the Palace community, including friends, collaborators, and muses from skating, fashion, art, and music. Tanju emphasizes inclusivity: 'Palace is for everyone.' The brand originated from London's Southbank Centre skate scene, where Tanju and Skewis skated daily. Known for irreverent takes on luxury logos, Palace gained fame with its 'Tri-Ferg' logo and collaborations with Gucci, Nike, Polo Ralph Lauren, Mercedes-AMG, Wedgwood, Stella Artois, and Rizla. The brand operates stores in London, New York, LA, Seoul, Tokyo, and Shanghai, and opened Manor Place, a community space in south London with Nike, in 2025. The guest edit profiles various creatives, including Alexandrino Da Silva, Bonnie Prince Billy, Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, and others, each describing their work. Stuart Hammond, a founding member of the Palace Wayward Boys Choir, serves as lead creative. The issue is available from 3 September in print, on the Wallpaper* app, and on Apple News+.
