A table with holes
Wednesday, 26 February 2014
All of us have read Mickey Mouse even once. I had also earned medals as a young explorer but I cannot remember in which competition or collection points, I still have the diplomas that they sent me at home, but… But… I’ve never eaten a meal sitting at a table in the shape of cheese

Shots of silence. Riccardo Varini and photography in Reggio Emilia
Wednesday, 12 February 2014
Today it’s snowing. Big and light flakes that slowly cover roofs, trees and the resting fields. A photographer will certainly go out with his camera, he will reach the hills and capture light and greatly charming images.

Design in 400 words: Silvia Censi
Wednesday, 29 January 2014
I met Silvia during a cooking course which was held in a friends’ restaurant, not that I’m a cooking-lover woman… not nearly. I do not know how yet, but I created some tortelli, physically making the pasta and the filling, amazing! It’s just like chef Gusteau says in Disney’s “Ratatouille”: “anyone can cook”. Returning to
DESIGN IN 400 WORDS: Giorgio Tartaro, who interview us who interview?
Wednesday, 15 January 2014
Insiders know Giorgio Tartaro since the beginning of his career, but “next door” design enthusiasts approach his professional career following his Tv shows. The simplicity he uses to bring this discipline in our homes helped everyone turn some corner of their home in a special corner. A thesis on Enzo Mari, why a degree in
Design in 400 words: the screens by Romeo Sozzi
Wednesday, 27 November 2013
I meet Romeo Sozzi in his showroom in Via Bagutta, Milan, during the Salone del Mobile, a quick meeting, a presentation, a handshake of the landlord in a beautiful outdoor concept, almost exotic in an interior, classic, downtown Milan. At the invitation of my dear friend Fabio, showroom manager, I begin a journey into the

The enchanting Shahrazād of Art: Anne Bachelier
Wednesday, 27 November 2013
Anne Bachelier is a pure surrealist, Bretonnian in the philological sense of the term. Her surrealism is purely theoretical because even though her art spouses in toto “wonder, dream, madness” as in her manifesto, she’s able to transform it, at some point, in flesh and blood. Bachelier invites those who are about to observe her

Design in 400 words: Alessi
Wednesday, 13 November 2013
Since I started my “house setting up” I have changed about 7/8 of it; along the way I removed furniture reducing in the end everything to large sofas and large tables. The pieces that on the contrary continued to increase were the funny objects of everyday utility made by Alberto Alessi and his designers. Who
Strange geometries for dreams of color: Federica Ubaldo

We must not go too far to fill our eyes with wonder, often beautiful things are so close we could almost touch them. This is the case of the young and talented Federica Ubaldo, specialized in illustration for children and editorial illustration. It is easy to imagine her in her studio in Milan, to the
