Nicks Newsstand

A pop-up reference library

Database of Taste — v1.0.0

Ephemera Studies

Nick’s Newsstand is a pop-up library based in San Francisco. It’s an index of printed matter for designers and the visually curious. Come browse, scan, and dig into how layouts, type systems, and materials have shaped culture. For the full archive and hands-on access (this site’s more of a catalog and inventory reference), stop by a research day or reach out. Nothing’s for sale, but everything can be scanned or cited.
