London / Shop

Fantastic selection of magazines !

Los Angeles / Cafe

It’s so unassuming from the street, but the build out and design are gorgeous. But the food is 💪🏽

London / Museum

Founded in 1828 the museum houses around 67,000 specimens many of which are now extinct or endangered. My favorite is the skull of a Bottlenose Whale from 1860.

Stockholm / Shop

One of Stockholms most popular tattoo parlors, Swahili Bob´s keep dishing out those rockabilly style tatoos for the ever-craving recidents of Södermalm.

London / Transport

London is so vast I end up spending hours travelling on trains. They are by far the best way to travel around on and are always full of weird and wonderful characters.

Florence / Art

Inspiring Hidden place in the Hearth of Florence.

London / Cinema

Beautiful architecture and setting, ideal place for catching the latest art-house flick or to enjoy evening tea and a journal session. Friendly staff, ambient atmosphere and a wonderful crowd.

Geneva / Bar

“La pointe de la Jonction” is the place where the Arve and the Rhone meet. Both banks have paths, lined with poplars of Italy. A long wooden platform facilitates swimming in the Rhône and relaxation in the sun. This equipment is part of a set of developments enhancing the banks of the Rhone. In swimsuit or dressed, people enjoy festive drinks on beach chairs, they listen to good music, they are happy to be there, by dozens when the sky is covered, by hundreds when it is discovered, the most courted terrace of Geneva living at the rhythm weather reports. Big musical program (concerts amplified or acoustic and more than 50 DJs), with some of the best in Geneva. All styles of music will be represented (salsa, cumbia, regga, rock, funk, soul, jazz, house, techno...). DJ sets and concerts will be held on Saturdays and Sundays from 3pm to 7pm.

Amsterdam / Place

I've always been inspired by old industrial buildings like factories, but unfortunately such buildings have become rather rare in the Netherlands. At the moment you can still find some of the remains of the old harbour of Amsterdam called the ‘NDSM werf’ on the other side of the river ‘IJ,’ but this area seems to be in transition as well. For the time being the NDSM werf is a creative place where a lot of activities are taking place. The best part for me is the 'Y-helling' to enjoy the (modest) skyline of Amsterdam and to write graffiti.  

London / Art

Architecture collective Assemble has transformed a former public swimming pool to create a new art centre for Goldsmiths college. The baths were closed to public in 1999. The space now accommodated seven new gallery spaces, a cafe and event space.

Frankfurt / Gallery

A kind of Claustrophobia. At the moment an exhibition about "documentary sculptures" (Eyal Weizman) - three-dimensional prints made from scans of crime scenes.

Paris / Restaurant

Very nice place where you can take your time for a coffee or eat french cooking by a Japanese chef. The design is like you're at home and there are different artist displayed on the walls.

Vancouver / Musician

Fupper is Simon Hughes, a musician from London currently living in Vancouver, BC, Canada. The latest Fupper release is “Foreign Bodies”; it is his 18th album in 20 years. The music sounds like an electronic Moondog with luscious guitars, harmonized vocals, spoken word, lyrics of streaming consciousness, found sounds and field recordings. “I have given a list of some of my favorite Vancouver haunts. Besides these, drink in the nature and get wet.”

Sausalito / Illustrator

Bristol based Illustrator, currently in Sausalito, California.

Jogjakarta / Visual Artist

Teguh Hartanto and Su Tomesen are visual artists based in Jogjakarta. Teguh's mainly works with the media painting and screen printing but he also does street art with graffiti and stencil. He works spontaneously; the outcome is unpredictable and surprising. For him, the process is more important than the result. Su's work consists of videos, photographs and installations, and she travels a lot. Working in the context of a residence abroad or on location is a means of putting her (European) position, ideas and being into discussion. She has been artist-in-residence in Belgrade, Amman and Johannesburg, and worked for an international video art project in Port-au-Prince, Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro.
