MIETIS 2

I’m so happy to post the work I’ve done lately for Mietis! The six collages, joint together to tell a surreal, out-of-this-world narration, depict the mood behind Maria Fontanellas‘ (the brand’s designer) autumn-winter 2018 collection.

With its Spanish origins, Mietis is a reflection of a familiar savoir faire. The family leather tanning tradition, run by three generations since 1954, brought Maria back to Igualada. Here, she opened her atelier in which top quality leather is the essence – reinterpreted in a contemporary way. The collections are defined by Fontanellas’s unique and transgressive design and attention to detail, with an emphasis on tailoring (inspired with David Bowie and the bull fighters, for instance) and an eclectic use of materials and custom-developed fabrics.

All collages by Edward Kanarecki, exclusively commissioned by Mietis.

#InstaLOVE – May 2018

I am an Instagram maniac and I openly confess that I spend too much time on filtering my feed. But it’s irresistible, when you have so many great accounts to follow! If you are ready for a dose of beautifully curated walls, inspiring photos and delightful shots – see my May recommendations!

@thepopmag / I LOVE POP MAGAZINE. It’s such an incredible outlet of the industry’s biggest creatives! From the editorial sneak peeks to quite very humorous captions, following Pop on the daily is… mandatory.

@florence / While we’re all waiting for Florence + The Machine’s upcoming album, Hunger, seeing some of the signer’s latest outfits is a treat. Adore her.

@teget / I guess Ana Kraš is one of the most beloved girls on Instagram, simultaneously being the ultimate ‘anti’ of a basic Insta girl. The artist’s daily pics of textures, colour combinations and people that surround her are inspiring, even if that sounds cliché. But really, I enjoy her snaps wholeheartedly. So, if you still don’t follow her…

@pleasuregardenmagazine / Pleasure Garden Magazine is my latest discovery. Fully devoted to the beauty of nature (and everything that is focused on flowers), the magazine commissions different photographers to capture the greens in such places as Morocco or Portland. Watch out for some emerging top florists, too!

@botticelliceramics / Botticelli Ceramics proves that some of the most incredible things can be found right here, on Instagram. I’m dying to get my hands on one of those very limited edition, one-of-a-kind ceramics coming straight from Marc Armitano Domingo’s studio (he’s Ryan McGinley’s boyfriend, you can often see the two on the photographer’s account).  “Inspired by art, Wunderkammer, and music from the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries”, Marc creates plates and mugs with 3D flowers, bees, boobies and eyes. And not only. Too obsessed with those artworks. You can buy them here.

AND, if you want to follow one more account on Instagram… why don’t you follow, ta-da, @designandculturebyed?

Hotel Paris by Isobel Gowdie

Isobel Gowdie‘s Hotel Paris is Mitte’s loveliest destination, supplied with vintage greats from Isabel Marant and true treasures from such off-the-radar labels like Les Mesdemoiselles. The spacious boutique, filled with boho delights, is a dream summer wardrobe made for long walks down the beach or the wandering in the countryside. Note the blanket selection, as well! Next time you’re in Berlin, take your time to go through all of those well curated must-haves.
