Call it coincidence or who knows what, but the same day Yorgo pointed out the Ascète watch a couple of weeks ago, Pierre wrote telling me about his latest installation for Knoll, which took place during Designer’s Days in Paris last month, again in collaboration with EEM. Here are a few images I wanted to share but never got around to.

In the last few months Lele has been putting together a nice mix of photographers. A selection is going on show at Jaguar Shoes in London, opening on July 3. Make sure you go and grab a copy of the zine he is making for the occasion!

What would Alvar Aalto say?

Been a hectic last two weeks. First hanging out in Basel with Nacho for the art fairs and shooting two amazing houses for the next issue of Apartamento, thank you Cosima and Emanuel!!

Then moving on to Barcelona for a few days as Vinçon invited Apartamento to curate one of their windows for 2 weeks. Whenever you are in town, you should definitely have a look around the shop, it’s really impressive!

Congratulations Linus for being one of the winners of The Most Beautiful Swiss Books 2007 prize!!! Opening of the exhibition and award ceremony tomorrow night in Zurich at the Museum of Design.

Celebrating 100 years of Olivetti!

New Jerseyy is a new gallery project by Daniel Baumann, Tobias Madison, Emanuel Rossetti and Dan Solbach, based in North Basel, Switzerland. Keep an eye on it, especially if you will be traveling down to the city for Art Basel or Design Miami/ Basel next month…

Well, you might have heard of Jocko Weyland’s latest script, Deathbowl to Downtown, the film produced by Coan Nichols e Rick Charnoski of NCP Films; but did you ever check out some of his previous work? You definitely should, and by the way Jocko, hope you managed to ride a pool today, still happy birthday and keep up the good work!

Nieves likes to make your Parisian Summer plans even more exciting, so it has decided to bring its ever growing Library to the Centre Culturel Suisse, at 38 rue des Francs Bourgeois (3rd), until September 28. The opening reception is this coming Saturday May 17, from 6pm to 9pm. If you missed the LA show early this year, you don’t have anymore excuses…
