Copenhagen / Architecture

If you like beautiful architecture and want to escape the city for a few hours, head north of the city along the coast. Bellevue beach is one of the most popular beaches in the Copenhagen area, on the northern outskirts of the city. The Beach is a sandy beach, approx. 700m long, and feature characteristic blue-striped lifeguard towers and a geometric kiosk, all designed by the Danish architect and furniture designer Arne Jacobsen in the 1930s. The beach is used by everybody – from young families to nudists, they all share the same space (this is Denmark after all). If you take the coastal road up to the beach you will pass the Skovshoved Petrol Station designed by the same man. The functionalist style Petrol Station built in the early 1930s is still in operation. Whilst the pumps still functions as a petrol station, the building now functions as a cafe. The roof of the station is oval-shaped, hence the nickname ‘The Mushroom’, and is illuminated at night to highlight the beautiful designed building.

Los Angeles / Park

A nice way to combine a beach walk and a mountain hike. The hike's elevation will offer a great view of the PCH highway.

Munich / Attraction

The White Rose was a non-violent, intellectual resistance group in Nazi Germany which was led by five students (and one professor) in front of the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. The ‘monument’ isn’t really a monument. The leaflets show up as tiles embedded in the pavement in front of the university, and commemorate the movement brilliantly. Poignant and moving.

Berlin / Architecture

Historical district with buildings designed by Alvar Aalto, Walter Gropius, Oscar Niemeyer and many more.

Vienna / Creative Space

An island of countryside-like idyll in one of Vienna’s youngest districts, surrounded on all sides by the city’s newest apartment blocks. Notgalerie’s wooden church was once rescued from demolition to be completely reassembled and now hosts a programme of art events appreciative of the character and leisurely pace of its new location.

Paris / Bookstore

Great selection of design / illustration books

Montreal / Shop

La Founderie sums up the best of Montreal style. The place is filled with hand picked vintage gems.

Milan / Shop

Best designer clothing store in Milan (in my humble opinion!).

Mexico City / Art Director

Orly Anan is a visual artist and set designer interested in the intersection between ritual and contemporary art. Her research has led her to explore the traditions of various countries, The work of Orly Anan is born of the mysticism implicated in everyday life, in which spirituality is defined as the consciousness of the energy that unites and interweaves everything. She decontextualizes objects as an act of awareness, exchange, and feedback, giving rise to a highly personal aesthetic. She focuses mainly on scenography and space intervention, using everyday objects as tools of exploration.

Amsterdam / Designer

Hi I’m Luca. I live and work in Amsterdam, from a small atelier full of colors in an old naval warehouse. During my days I draw space rockets, fantastic creatures, imaginary characters and fast cars, turning them into toys.
