Aurillac / Place

Nested in the valley of the river Jordanne, the plots are incredibly numerous, exuberant of colours, little streams, of course of vegetables and fruits, secret passages and little cabins, it is always a delight to be in contact with the fruitful soil in such a place.

Aurillac / Museum

The discoveries are often very interesting in this huge ancient stable built in the 19th century and transformed into a place for exhibitions of contemporary art.

Aurillac / Park

From this quiet and beautiful high place you can see an amazing view on the city and its surroundings : the bell tower of the church of Saint Géraud, the tile roofs of the old houses, the hills...

Aurillac / Shop

Every time I need inspiration for a present for friends or family, I go to this store and inevitably discover something intriguing, exciting and unique. Books, clothes, luxurious old fabrics, bizarre little objects, and a lovely owner whose passion for antiques is communicative.

Aurillac / Restaurant

I love this tiny but refined restaurant. The cook and owner is generous and passionate, he likes to spend some time within the tables and share some truculent tales with the clients. The products are mainly from the local area and the wine cellar is excellent.

Aurillac / Art Centre

This place is dedicated to art and creation and harbors studios for illustration, clothes, terracotta, potery, leather... Every room has its own beauty and from time to time you can meet the artists and see how they work. The theater company Béliâshe is also present in this old high school and proposes classes, workshops, exhibitions and an interesting program of shows.

Antwerp / Artist

Woche is a collection of jewelry that can be worn on a daily basis until it almost becomes second skin. Its name translates to ‘week’ in German. Wearing these pieces makes them adjust to the body, with small changes in patina, colour and shape. The Belgian label, established in 2016 by Clarisse Bruynbroeck, does not work according to a seasonal approach but rather evolves through time as an unfettered collection. Coincidence and imperfection are aspects that return within the handmade pieces, in shape, material and technique. The apparent fragility only contributes to the aesthetics and does not affect the wearability of the jewelry.
