Elsässertor II Commercial Building – Basel
31-05-09
We did not expect to see another Herzog & De Meuron building in Basel, as it was not listed in our guide being still under construction in August 2005.
La Ola – Sculpture
27-05-09
This irregular black diamond-shaped sculpture in la Plaça dels Angels clashed interestingly with the white geometric facade of the wonderful Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art.
Ear Chair – Armchair
21-05-09
These two facing armchairs had such protruded side ears, that it was not possible to frame them properly in pictures.
Untitled – Sculpture
17-05-09
This minimal neon-light sculpture completely transfigured one of the staircases of the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin.
Two-Tone Coir Mat – Doormat
11-05-09
Seen at the entrance of our friends’ graphic design agency the World of Dot in Milan, we liked this doormat enough to head for shopping during the Salone week.
