Great Bookshop: Magma Books, London

In my humble opinion, this is like the mother of all hip art and design bookshops. At the very least, its the one that first stole my heart. I used to pop in every single time I was anywhere near Seven Dials (which was a lot), and now still make a pilgrimage back there every time I'm back in London.

Graphic design, architecture, street art, subculture, magazines, art toys and more, wonderful, beautiful unique books and products, all crammed into a shop the size of a large bathroom.
