The very best places to be lost or found

CABIN PORN! Don't be put off by the name...this website just shows the most beautiful, original little houses and cabins that are in the middle of nowhere and completely cut-off from almost everything. Each photo is as idyllic as the next, and I thought for our theme of Lost & Found this would give some good inspiration! Keep those submissions coming, the email is helicon.magazine@gmail.com

It would be so good to just be lost in one of these places, have a little holiday away from the usual busy life, and cut off from technology. I can never decide if I prefer the ones by the water, or in a wood? The treehouse ones are so cool, but then maybe you could catch your own fish if you were by a lake!

Here a few of my favourites, it's impossible to choose though, there are pages and pages on the site!

Submit work for this term's issue!


LOST & FOUND

Helicon is back for the Autumn term and we are excited to announce the theme for this terms magazine. We would love you interpret Lost & Found in anyway you like, and in any creative medium of your choosing.

Send us your poetry, creative writing, art, photography or any creative idea to helicon.magazine@gmail.com before 4th November to be considered for publication in our Winter issue.

To get some ideas brewing, here’s a dose of inspiration…

Rediscovering objects from childhood...


Hidden places found...


The rediscovery of something you used to love...


Collections of found objects...



Lost letters...


Derelict spaces and ghost towns...



... Or objects put away for someone else to find.



We really look forward to seeing your submissions!
