Aviles / Cafe

Cute cafe in the old town, with a nice garden to enjoy a their yummy pastries :)

London / Nature

Epping Forest is a 2,400 hectares area of ancient woodland between Epping in the north and Wanstead in the south, straddling the border between Greater London and Essex. I tend to get off at Loughton Tube Station (Central Line), which is about 10–12min walk to the forest.

Carrboro / Shop

An awesome place that's a combination gas station, convenience store and countrystyle gourmet restaurant – they even have a biodiesel pump stocked with diesel made from recycled restaurant fry fat and a deep wine selection.

New York / Music Venue

At independent record label RVNG’s Commend Records you can shop for vinyl from artists like….along with an eclectic mix of clothing, ceramics, and more.

Munich / Bar

It is a big room furnished with dark and massive-wood chairs, a good number of billiard tables, and walls full of random objects and portraits. Everything is nice about it. And especially the deep atmosphere created by this mix wood and the green light reflected by the billiard carpet. If you go there early in the morning you get a large coffee served on a Formica plate with a biscuit. Before 11a.m., it seems to be just a quiet Tearoom where only grannies meat for a Bretzel. But the first players arrive, and by the end of the afternoon it full. It’s quite a joy full place and you can always get a chance to play a round.

Los Angeles / Restaurant

Part restaurant, part market, part publication, Botanica is a lively space in LA’s Silver Lake neighborhood. We converted the former drop ceiling liquor store by peeling the space back to its original shell and opening up the back wall and patio creating a space that reflects their personality and cooking – bright, lively and communal.

Youngstown / Bar

Broasted chicken = broiled + roasted chicken. This is what you'll find at The Elmton, and your mouth will thank you. The pizza is also well worth adding to the order. It's in a residential neighborhood and not near anything else, but you won't find anything else like it (have you ever heard of "broasted" chicken? didn't think so). Plus, it's hard to spend more than $20.

London / Shop

A beautifully curated mix of plants from mature palms to microscopic succulents. It is impossible to leave empty-handed.

Los Angeles / Place

I consistently spend a lot of time here. It's the most relaxing place in the city.

Antwerp / Restaurant

The interior of this place is so beautiful. The atmosphere is just perfect for a romantic evening. Upstairs there's a nice bar as well.

Paris / Garden Centre

Yes we did their branding and website but their talent really worth it! One of the best place for flower creations.

Zürich / Shop

The Opia is a nice store focussing on asian independent fashion designers. In the basement Julian Zigerli is working on his new collection and if you're lucky, you'll meet Gipfeli, the dog of the house.

Madrid / Film Director

I am a filmmaker living in Madrid. I am part of DVEIN, a two-headed director: the other one is called Teo. We do commercials, music videos and film, and we love to experiment. That is why our work is characterized by the hybridization of ideas and techniques with which we merge real and digital in mix-media approached projects. We attempt to explore the limits of live action, animation or CGI on them, and to create our own visual and aesthetic language.
