Paris / Bookstore

Temple of alternative culture, full of underground comics, graphics and literature.

Vienna / Church

The „Kirche am Steinhof“ church is located off the beaten tourist path in the 14th district in the Steinhof Psychiatric Hospital (yes, you heard it right). The interior of the church is beautiful and designed to the tiniest detail by the famous Jugendstil architect Otto Wagner. He used new construction techniques and combined them with the necessities of the patients. For example the seating was designed so that there were no sharp edges. The bus 48A takes you there directly.

Barcelona / Beach

I only recommend walking around the Barceloneta beach at sunset, there are fewer people and in the fall and spring seasons is very nice to sit on a terrace watching the sea and entertaining yourself with the activities of the area.

New York / Restaurant

My boyfriend and I have come to ATOBOY over 30 times since its opening last year, and it is our second home. The menu is incredible and ever-evolving; they also received 2 stars in the New York Times this summer!

San Francisco / Cafe

Very friendly neighborhood coffee shop with a tasty simple brunch menu. You can find me there Sunday morning reading.

Sydney / Bookstore

Yes, a fantastic selection of books, but I especially love their book-themed t-shirts (so that everyone can see what a nerd you really are)

New York / Park

A spin around the park on a bike makes me feel good. One lap is about 6.13 miles. I've trained here for longer rides (including this London to Paris ride on a track bike that was 86 miles one day, rest on the second day, and 136 miles on the third day). I've sat there on a Sunday afternoon and have done as many as 10 laps (with rests in between). I switch in-between my carbon road bike and my steel track bike.

London / Place

Not long in the custody of the National Trust, designed by Philip Webb and commissioned by William Morris, in 1859. Tucked away in Beckenham. William and Jane Morris only lived here for five years; not a happy time of their marriage. But there is humility, authority and even bite, in the domestic scale. The rigorous, holistic design-hand at work belies any sense of souvenir shop Morris-lite. The vegetable garden in late Summer is the place to be.

Osaka / Cafe

Cute little coffee place we stumbled across in Osaka.

Paris / Gallery

La Villa Rose is an elegant and beautiful private town house in Paris with a gallery and many events as cocktails, presentations, showrooms, dinners. I love the decorative identity combining artistic contributions, a collection of design objects and rare pieces of furniture to be discovered throughout the year.

New York / Place

An hour away from NYC, there lies a summer camp on a pristine lake which was abandoned 15 years ago. I cant tell you where this is, but some research can lead you to the right place.

Oslo / Cafe

Perfect place for a slow Sunday morning, good food and nice atmosphere. It´s sometimes full, but you can hang in the little store until a table is available.

Leeza Pritychenko (b.1992) — Graphic Designer/Art Director with interest for VJ-ing, digital art and 3D graphics, currently based in The Hague, The Netherlands. In her work she is enjoying creating as expressive, as minimalistic projects with an eye for subtle yet quirky details; and combining goofiness with dark existentialism, while questioning the habitual reality around us. She wrote bachelor thesis on hoaxes and visual credibility, and did a VR project about hyperreality. She is also interested in possibilities that new media and technologies offer to the field of graphic design and storytelling and vice versa.
