Vienna / Bar

This bar is in the foyer of the viennese popular theater. the name as well as the interior refer to the socialist direction, but if one imagines a dusty place full of missent ex-marxists it nowadays really is just a place with the ambiance of another time, that houses parties and changing clubs. I love the curtains, the fact that it is in the middle of the city and that one really feels a heavy ancient mood, that is forever related to the image of imperial vienna. it is this certain amount of pretentious pomp that makes going there, regardless of what club it is, surreal and nice.

Amsterdam / Gallery

Ex theatre, ex d.i.y squat exhibition space, the W139 has now evolved into an official playground for contemporary art. Most works are made site specifically and are not for sale. This creates an exciting platform for experimentation. This gigantic space; absurd oasis in the middle of the invasion of sex toys, plastic pizzas & weed souvenirs of the Red Light District, is a must see. The openings are legendary and gather all the art kids in town. I use to work here as a host, as a barman, and I even designed their invitations from 2007 to 2008. All of my friends work or exhibited here, and it's one of my regular stops when biking around.

Barcelona / Bar

Eat embutidos while drinking Champagne. It is a fun place, always very crowded!

Berlin / Park

Secret place that is almost always empty.

New York / Cinema

I've seen so many great classic movies on film here. Being able to have that experience is one of the things that I feel lucky living in this city.

Saint Petersburg / Shop

One of the best second-hand shops I've ever been to. A lot of stuff like Raf Simons, Jil Sander, Our Legacy, etc, all for unbelievably low prices.

New York / Restaurant

I have been getting burgers here since I first moved to NYC. I think it is 1000 years old or something like that. Only two types of burgers, with or without bacon. I like easy decisions and this place is full of them. There is usually a line to be seated, but it always seems to go fast with $2.50 mugs of McSorley's. It's also at this strange vortex in the west village where 4th street and 12th street cross. Maybe that's why the line never takes too long and everything is so cheap.

Milan / Restaurant

A small family restaurant with very tasty Italian cuisine (be sure to make reservations for the evening)

Paris / Restaurant

Le Verre volé is a cool place where I like to have a deliciously outstanding and friendly lunch. By the way, the no sulfite wines such as “Dard et Ribo” are amazing.

Antwerp / Restaurant

A great place in the South of Antwerp for a healthy and tasty brunch/lunch

Toronto / Shop

A must visit, if you are into design, this is the place for you to go. Pure Scandinavian and Japanese inspiration. Mjölk is a design store in Toronto where you can find beautifully crafted products, from furniture to handcraft useful and unique objects. Located in the Junction neighborhood of Toronto.

London / Pub

Treviso / Music Producer

The music of Isaac de Martin, otherwise known as IKE, blends jazz and electronic influences into warm, smooth, and often cinematic soundscapes. A certain eclecticism is not surprising considering that the composer, producer and guitarist was born in Italy into a musical family with British roots, lived 10 years in Berlin, studied classical guitar, graduated in jazz and went on to develop his personal style through creative experimentation, live touring and collaborative work with artists from a variety of disciplines and countries.
