Founded by Andrew Montell, Acclaim Magazine is one of the most well known and respected street culture magazines in the world. It is based out of Melbourne, Australia and houses a number of writers and photographers globally to bring first hand access to cultural content. The magazine primarily focuses on contemporary fashion, art, music and the many other interconnecting aspects of street culture today. Every aspect of Acclaim is driven by style, integrity and quality.

Andrew is also the founder of the renown Carbon festival in Melbourne. It is an event that brings together some of today’s most interesting creative minds to present, discuss and share their experiences with local audiences via a series of four discussion forums, each focused on a specific aspect of contemporary street fashion, design and culture. These forums are surrounded by multiple side-events including art shows, parties and concerts.
