It was a warm afternoon and we both fell in love with the aura of the neighborhood. We stopped to rummage at a small shop on Erechtheiou – a quiet street facing the southern side of Acropolis, its sidewalks adorned with bitter orange trees. Needless to say I signed a lease for a space there

FvF Explores: Days of Haze and Nostalgia in Antiparos

Paroikia’s port looks like it’s melting under the midday sun. Dozens of rooms to rent signs are flashing under the blinding light: Oasis Camping, Maritsa’s Rooms, Sea View Hotel. Among the signs there is one reading “Boats to Antiparos.” For almost 20 years now I have been riding this little boat over waves twice its

Fritz and Chanelle are young entrepreneurs who have made their dream a reality, building a little indoor market in the Western Cape

FvF Cooks Special: Mexican Street Food

root — Sat, 26 Sep 2015 22:30:49 +0000

While on our quest for artisanal mezcal and its origins, we came across food markets and a cornucopia of tantalizing smells. As we made our way through food stalls, adroit and confident street vendors made taco preparation seem like child’s play. No superfluous movements are made in the altars of authentic street food. Sizzling pans,

Thirty-something photographers Salva López and José Javier Serrano, who goes by the name Yosigo, share an academic background in graphic design which has profoundly influenced their creative identity as well as their visual understanding of composition and space.

Berlin – Tiergarten. Blätter säumen den Weg. Ein verregnetes Grau bedeckt den Himmel. Es ist einer der ersten Herbsttage. Wir stehen vor Boris Radczun´s Wohnungstür. Er empfängt uns freundlich. Sein Retriever-Mischling dagegen reagiert euphorisch. Wir betreten die 200 qm große Altbauwohnung. Riesige Fenster lassen, das, noch vorhandene, Licht durch die Wohnung strömen. Spartanisch aber elegant

It is summer in the city and we are sitting on Malin´s beautiful balcony, surrounded by her vintage wooden interior and some fresh white flowers. In the interview, she says that she´d love to have a garden but one of her biggest passions in life – traveling – keeps her away from that fulfillment. You

Sonnenlicht durchflutet die geräumige, in weiss gehaltene Dachgeschosswohnung in Berlin-Charlottenburg. Draußen ist es ruhig. “Die Treppen in den sechsten Stock sind jeden Tag eine neue Herausforderung, auf die ich gerne verzichten würde”, sagt sie sichtlich genervt von dem steilen Treppengang in ihre Wohnung. Helena kommt gerade von einem morgendlichen Werbedreh und muss sich erst einmal

Bei Niki Jagdfeld gibt es immer was zu sehen, egal ob in seinem neuen Cabinet Store – Teil des Departmentstores im Quartier 206 – oder in seinen privaten Räumlichkeiten gleich um die Ecke. Überall stolpert man über kleine Inspirationsquellen, tolle Ideen und seltene Einrichtungsgegenstände. Es wird nichts dem Zufall überlassen. Und hört man Niki dabei
