Warner Robins / Gallery

This is probably my favorite venue in the middle Georgia area. I have seen a ton of great bands play here, plus my band has played here a few times. Bonus points for having a small gallery upstairs.

Warner Robins / Market

This place is wonderful. It's like a magic place where you can find ugly sweaters, neat furniture, old cameras, very used records, and more. It is a little intimidating from the outside though.

Warner Robins / Restaurant

The best pizza buffet in town is right behind the house I grew up in. They will make pretty much any pizza you want, plus there is a Mortal Kombat arcade machine in the back. How sweet is that?

Warner Robins / Place

I grew up just down the street from this place, and once it closed down me and my friends had a heyday skating there all the time. I don't skate much anymore, but I credit those years as my formative years of creativity. I guess now it has turned into a gallery for amateur graffiti artists.

Warner Robins / Bar

I think it was around last summer I started frequenting an open mic here. It was every Saturday for a long time. I met a ton of good musicians and great people here, so if you are in the area when they have an open mic you should check it out. Oh yeah, and they have coffee too.

Valencia / Designer

Leading Kutarq studio, architect and designer Jordi López Aguiló designs lighting, objects and furniture with a unique and pragmatic perspective. Each project involves a methodical process that emphasizes both material and research. With the constant challenge of revealing the "soul" behind his objects, he offers their users not just an aesthetic piece but rather a design with personality and a life of its own. After spending time abroad collaborating with prestigious architecture and design firms in Paris and Copenhagen, he finished his master in Barcelona and decided to finally settle down in his home town Valencia where he's been leading his own studio since 2012. His work has been exhibited internationally, including at Paris Design Week, Milan Design Week, Frankfurt Light & Building and the Stockholm Furniture Fair.

Hamburg / Creative Director

Ahoy. Most of my time I spend with Work&Travel. Exploring, relaxing and getting inspired while trailing is the best way to have a break after a long project. Also meeting people, write and experience new stories of life is what makes not only a trip but also the creative work lasting longer.

Rotterdam / Artist
