I commission film writing for i-D and I like people with interesting, thoughtful and left field ideas. If something’s been on your mind – films new or old – and you think the i-D audience would be interested in it, let me know.

Over the past century, kitchens have evolved more than any room in the home. In the August issue of BBC History Magazine, @DeborahSuggRyan charts Britain’s long quest for space and efficiency – from fly-repellent cabinets to the ubiquitous air-fryer.
