BERLIN CIT Y GUIDE for DESIGN LOVERS Since the fall of the Wall, Berlin quickly emerged as one of the most cosmopolitan, creative and exciting cities in Europe for art, museums, architecture, history, and nightlife. From exhibitions and events, openings, and vernissages to open air festivals – there is always something happening in this city. While Berlin has always attracted visitors for its nightlife and modern art scene, a big movement over the past five years can be seen in Berlin’s booming food scene, thanks to an influence of international creative minds moving to the city. Berlin is the place in Germany, where food trends happen first. With a countless number of good bars, restaurants and cafes to choose from, this Berlin Guide will show you a curated selection of our favorite places to “sleep, eat, drink, shop and explore”. From cozy cafés and coffee roasters to restaurants with menus boasting products from local artisans and growers to Berlin’s most prestigious fashion shops hidden in a backyard, this guide will lead you away from the tourist hubs to some of Berlin’s hidden local gems. DIN A5, 15 x 21 cm, 224 pages, full colour, softcover with silk matt foil, English 2nd Edition, 03/2020 ISBN 978-3-9821148-8-0 24 Euro 9
C APE TOWN CIT Y GUIDE for DESIGN LOVERS Crowned by the magnificent Table Mountain and surrounded by superb beaches, there is nothing quite like Cape Town. Offering a blend of cultures, history, an exquisite wine and food scene, stunning nature and some of the most exciting wildlife in the world, Cape Town is also establishing itself internationally as a hub for art and design. This Cape Town guide provides a curated selection of the locals’ favourite places to “sleep, eat, drink, shop and explore”. From serious coffee culture, farm markets and internationally acclaimed gourmet restaurants and award-winning wine estates to one of the oldest fishing villages along the West Coast, this guide will lead you away from the tourist hubs to some of Cape Town’s hidden gems. DIN A5, 15 x 21 cm, 224 pages, full colour, softcover with silk matt foil, English 2nd Edition, 10/2019 ISBN 978-3-9819822-4-2 24 Euro 11
MIL AN CIT Y GUIDE for DESIGN LOVERS Lately, the Italian design capital has been mentioned with the word “renaissance”, describing a shift. Milan is more than a Fashion and Design destination. It is the “place to be” for the European culinary scene. Besides the classical trattoria (serving spaghetti and ‘80s salads), Milan offers a selection of sophisticated dining locations, always ready to host stylish guests during Fashion Week. In every way, Milan is not afraid to experiment, and while the city has certainly embraced each and every food trend, from ethnic hybridization to the brunch and gourmet fast-food obsessions, it never lost sight of its original vocation for great, timeless cuisine. That’s why the Milanese restaurant scene can be relied on for the three major ingredients: tradition, innovation and nobility. Milan is the home of world-renowned brands like Prada, Armani and Versace, and today this legacy goes further. Modern architectural projects have transformed the cityscape with a contemporary touch. Considering that 2019 marks 500 years since the death of Leonardo da Vinci, there has never been a better time to visit this Northern Italy metropolis. DIN A5, 15 x 21 cm, 204 pages, full colour, softcover with silk matt foil, English 1st Edition, 07/2019 ISBN 978-3-9819822-8-2 24 Euro 13
PALMA CIT Y GUIDE for DESIGN LOVERS Excellent restaurants, vibrant Tapas Bars, cozy beach and city cafés, glamorous boutique hotels, rich in history, and splendid beaches with crystal clear water - Palma has the benefits of both a traditional, yet modern and vibrant city and a striking seafront location. An explosion of new trendy places during the last years changed the so-called ‘pearl of the Mediterranean’ considerably and makes it more beautiful today than ever. Yet, despite the modernity, the Mediterranean flair can still be felt in every corner. This Palma Guide will show you a curated selection of our favorite places to “sleep, eat, drink, shop and explore”. From cozy coffeeshops, where young, trendy people sip their lattes, local Tapas Bars and internationally acclaimed gourmet restaurants, to some of the most beautiful Finca retreats, this guide will lead you away from the tourist hubs to some of Palma’s hidden local gems. DIN A5, 15 x 21 cm, 220 pages, full colour, softcover with silk matt foil, English 1st Edition, 08/2018 ISBN 978-3-9819822-2-0 24 Euro 15
PARIS CIT Y GUIDE for DESIGN LOVERS Poets, artists, and writers have all written about their love of Paris. It’s hard not to fall in love with this city – a place of elegance, sophistication and style. Paris is the home of haute couture and exquisite cuisine. In fact, the art of French cooking owes its success to the mastery of classic basics updated by today’s chefs. It’s known that the French prefer quality to quantity, especially when it comes to food. And the glimmering Seine with its elegant bridges has arguably made Paris the most recognisable and romanticised cityscape in the world. Paris holds hundreds of years of history – of monarchy, revolution, revolt and artistic innovation – and at the same time, Paris radiates with increasingly futuristic architecture and lifestyle concepts. In 2024 Paris will show a new vision of Olympism in action, celebrating its unique spirit of old and new, and everything in between. Spending long afternoons getting lost in the Louvre or exploring the Musée d‘Orsay are possible as well as discovering plenty of contemporary life in the less tourist-trodden outer arrondissements. DIN A5, 15 x 21 cm, 224 pages, full colour, softcover with silk matt foil, English 1st Edition, 08/2019 ISBN 978-3-9819822-0-4 24 Euro 17
RE YK JAVIK CIT Y GUIDE for DESIGN LOVERS Everyone has heard of Iceland’s dramatic nature - glaciers right next to active volcanoes, bubbling geysers and hot springs, black lava beaches and the graceful dancing Northern Lights every visitor secretly hopes to see. With the dramatic rise of tourism, Iceland has quietly gained a worldwide reputation for its surprisingly dynamic food scene. Foodies in Reykjavik will find plenty of restaurants serving traditional ingredients in a creative, new way. While Iceland used to be a seemingly remote island of isolation, it has turned into an international hot spot. If you’re planning on spending time in Reykjavík, you’ll be easily seduced by its exciting food and drink scene, Nordic architecture and the pop art scene, as well as the vibrant nightlife that shows how different this city is to anywhere else in the world. From local coffee roasters and Iceland’s first Michelin- star restaurant, to Iceland’s iconic fashion and design companies, this guide will show you a curated selection of our favourite places to “sleep, eat, drink, shop and explore” in Reykjavík - the world’s most northerly capital. DIN A5, 15 x 21 cm, 220 pages, full colour, softcover with silk matt foil, English 1st Edition, 12/2018 ISBN 978-3-9819822-6-8 24 Euro 19
NEW STOCKHOLM CIT Y GUIDE for DESIGN LOVERS Sweden is one of the happiest countries in the world and Stockholm is Scandinavia’s undisputed capital of cool and style. Design is not a luxury, it‘s a right. The coffee culture, the world-class fine-dining scene, and award- winning design of innovative and functional buildings all make the city a popular place to visit. An ever-growing awareness of sustainable and ethical lifestyle practices has given rise to a conscious-driven society that seems centuries ahead of others. Sweden’s flexible approach to working hours is also one reason why Stockholm was recently ranked best in the world for work-life balance. Stockholm is not known for its warmth, however, in summer, the days are long and the Nordic sunsets are spectacular. Stockholmers are savvy and they know how to make the most of their city; and with some insider tips, so will you. DIN A5, 15 x 21 cm, 224 pages, full colour, softcover with silk matt foil, English 1st Edition, 10/2019 ISBN 978-3-9821148-6-6 24 Euro 21
NEW TBILISI CIT Y GUIDE for DESIGN LOVERS Enchanting courtyards, Moorish facades, churches and temples. Gothic motifs merged with Art Nouveau and stylised Medieval Georgian architectural decor. And, Soviet heritage adds yet another aspect of architectural design. Tbilisi is characterised by many styles and it’s no wonder: in the Georgian capital, the most diverse cultures crossed – and, over the centuries, the Caucasian metropolis was reinvented again and again. These multicultural influences have shaped Tbilisi. Persians, Arabs, Turks, Mongols and Russians instilled a bit of their culture and, in 1817, a small German community from Swabia also lived in the area. If one were unknowingly exposed to the capital, one probably would not know where on earth one is at all. Nowadays some call Tbilisi “The Asian Paris”, some “The next Berlin”. But, there is currently a spirit of departure from the old and a fierce subconscious drive to create new trends, style and culture. Today, the Georgian capital is also regarded as one of the emerging fashion heartlands. Since 2015, Tbilisi has its own Fashion Week filled with a lot of cool flair. There are many reasons to visit Tbilisi – whether budget or luxury, action or art, cultural or culinary experiences, Tbilisi has it all.
