Up to you Anthology is an online store that hosts, as its first special collection, internationally renowned furniture designers who have created unique bags. Its founder has decided to inaugurate this new platform by combining two sectors, giving interior designers the opportunity to meet fashion. The amazing result attracted great attention exactly during one of the most delicate moments for a brand: the launch. Travels, on the other hand, are a source of inspiration for Milanese architecture and design studio Яevolution Archstudio, which, by interiorizing the encounters with nature, atmospheres and urban spaces experienced by the founder in Asia, has produced a furnishing line that mixes materials and functions. MS Chang containers are made of wood and parchment and hide video projectors behind small doors. Hospitality meets history and culture, art and architecture in the Vik Gallery in Milan: 89 rooms, each characterized by a unique style, decorated in line with an ad hoc project that includes specially selected works of art. Also the gastronomic offer blends with art thanks to the exhibition of several unique pieces in the restaurant. Man’s World Taste Experience was an experience that, last November, at Superstudio Più in Milan, combined the excellences of Made in Italy in the food, design, beverage, sport, fashion, automotive, technology fields. In short, it provided an opportunity for meetings, events and exhibitions that enhanced some of the best Italian brands and presented an overview on lifestyle musts for men. Geographical influences are the ones that can be found and enjoyed at the Gunè restaurant in Florence. Its menu blends two very strong and popular regional cultures, from Tuscany and Basilicata. The chef draws his inspiration from nouvelle cuisine, trying to evoke the taste of ancient recipes. Temporal, cultural and sexual influences can be found in the Camp style, which finds its home in the fashion and furniture fields. Male and female, present and future, good and bad, high and low culture: this phenomenon from the ’60s is back and Cristina Morozzi, journalist, writer, critic, art director as well as one of the greatest exponents of the contemporary design world, tells us about it.
