Barcelona / Architecture

"Fundació Joan Miró" it's my favorite museum in Barcelona. They do beautiful & interesting exhibitions, but what really mesmerizes me is their architecture by Josep Lluís Sert. It's located at Montjuic mountain but very close to city center, so you can breathe clean air and enjoy art master pieces. The shop and bookstore it's also a place where I can spend many hours.

Barcelona / Bakery

This is the perfect place to read a book while you enjoy a good coffee and a tasty and organic piece of cake. They also do a delicious brunch.

Barcelona / Bar

If I had to choose one singular and authentic bar in Barcelona, I'll say "Mendizábal". This is not a fancy bar, and that's what I love of Mendizábal. But it doesn't mean it isn't a cute one with a beautiful decoration and good prices. They have a two very differentiated spaces: one privileged terrace in the city center, and the interior salon. Them both are awesome, and it's perfect because you can decide which one fits better with the situation. They do tapas, sandwich, juices, burgers and veggi burgers. In my opinion, they have the best vegetarian sandwich offer in town. But the most important, you can leave the bar without eating their "patatas bravas"

Barcelona / Illustrator

I live in Barcelona and I spend most of my time creating creatures, designing logos and flyers for night clubs, printing t-shirts and painting big black spots pictures. I have made graffiti, painting, designing, illustration and I guess that is why my work is more and more a combination of all these matters.

Barcelona / Artist

Emil Kozak is from a small town in Denmark, and was inspired to take on graphic design as a result of his life long passion for skateboarding. He began at an early age to develop his skills, inspired by skateboard-art and album covers. Growing up in Denmark, the long tradition of scandinavian functional minimalism, is inevitable and the result today is a unique artist with brilliant ideas running a studio, a clothing/surfing brand and exhibiting in art-galleries all over the world. He is motivated by a simple goal that resonates throughout his work: ”I hope that my work can remind us that imagination can defy gravity and bend time. It is our own responsibility to enjoy every second of the day. Nobody else can do that for us. Have fun, do what you love, love what you do. We might get thrown off this spinning ball of iron and mantle tomorrow.” He currently lives and works in Barcelona.
