A lively hotspot in the heart of Amsterdam in emerald green tones.

Unfortunately it’s not in Amsterdam but De Pont, museum of contemporary art is worth the 1,5 hour trip with the train. The building itself is beautiful, it’s a former wool mill but also there collection is worth seeing!

Her I enjoy the quit and concentrated atmosphere. I go to the library if I need some new input or just want to work somewhere else than in my studio. You can also just go there to relax at one of the beautiful spots in the building. Or have some food at the top floor with a beautiful view over Amsterdam.

De Plantage is a bright, elegant brasserie beside Artis where great design.

Simple but refined dishes. Reserve space for the madeleines!
