The New York City/London-based creative consultant stops by to tell us what she's been into.
March 5, 2026
Isabella Burley is a New York City/London-based creative consultant. In 2020, she founded Climax Books, a go-to destination for the wildest finds, from first editions to vintage ephemera, including CDs and magazines. The shop has collaborated with Chopova Lowena and makes its own cute merch. They also host a really neat interview series called 'Under the Cover' on Instagram featuring guests like Dev Hynes and Kyle MacLachlan discussing their favorite books. In September 2024, Climax opened its New York City storefront, and it just opened a new location in London too. She also previously made history as the youngest editor-in-chief of Dazed and served as CMO at Acne Studios. Lucky for us, Isabella’s here to tell us what she’s been into.

My love language. I love seeing them around! This is one I saw at Seattle airport last year. They make me so happy that anyone can come and find a book, take one or donate one. There used to be one on my street in NYC.
