On the 20th of June 2023, as Pharrell made his debut at Louis Vuitton, I had the chance to interview a very inspiring guest at Drouant, a famous restaurant in the second arrondissement of Paris.

Meet Nick Vogelson, a multifaceted individual who serves as both the editor-in-chief and creative director of Document Journal. Established in New York in 2012, Document Journal is an independent magazine that delves into culture, arts, and fashion. Published biannually and distributed worldwide, it provides a platform for remarkable voices in art, literature, and fashion, with a keen focus on American and global culture.

The magazine boasts an impressive array of contributors, including renowned figures such as Inez & Vinoodh, Mert and Marcus, Juergen Teller, Bruce Weber, Mario Sorrenti, Grace Coddington, Hedi Slimane, Richard Prince, Collier Schorr, Craig McDean, Larry Clark, and Rei Kawakubo.

Beyond Document Journal, Nick is also the visionary Founder and Creative Director of Idea Culture, an innovative advertising agency.

I embarked on this interview with Nick to gain insights into the genesis and vision of Document Journal. I was curious about how he managed to conceive such grand aspirations at the tender age of 26, when he launched the magazine. Furthermore, I sought to understand his collaboration with some of the foremost talents in the art and fashion industries. Once again, we witness the fusion of creativity and innovation with the realm of business.


What you’ll learn during the episode : 

  • His Background, childhood and education
  • The genesis of Document Journal
  • How he convinced top Industry Figures to Collaborate
  • His creative Process and radical ideas
  • How he built Partnerships with Brands
  • The genesis of Idea Culture and focusing on consulting
  • His approach to working with photographers and models
  • How to overcome challenges and staying positive about the future
  • His ingredients for success 
  • His vision of happiness and the concept of living in the present moment
  • How to balance the desire for more with contentment
