ミラノ・Milan
July 6, 2007
某ブランドの打ち合わせで、ミラノに行ってきました。まだ言えないけど、本当に打ち合わせだけしてトンボ帰りでした。
I made a quick trip to Milan last week for business meetings for a new project.
今回はFour Seasons Milanに泊まりました。こじんまりしていて、素敵なホテルです。特に廊下のクラッシックな様式の天井と、フラットなガラスの組み合わせが好きなディテールです。
I stayed at the Four Seasons Milan this time. This is a very elegant hotel with nice cozy atmosphere.As one of the details, I especially liked the combination of the classic-style corridor and flat clear glass which gives a modern feeling.
Dolce&Gabbanaプロデュースで話題のGOLD。デザイン的には思ったより衝撃が少なかったです。食事も。。。
This is 'GOLD', the new restaurant produced by Dolce&Gabbana. I expected the interior to be more 'designed' than it was, and also food...
ASPESIを外から。これまでのASPESIのイメージを大きく裏切る、すばらしく肩の力が入ってない店で感動しました。さすがAntonio Citterio ＆ Tomatoのチーム。普通なんだけど、什器の配置とか、ディスプレーの組み合わせがよく計算されています。こういうのが意外と難しいんです。
This is the ASPESI store taken from the street. I think this store brings a completely new image to the brand, and I was impressed by the effortlessness and ease in the design by the Antonio Citterio & Tomato team. It seems very ordinary, but the layout of the furniture and combination of the displays are well thought out. Surprisingly, designs like this is harder to accomplish than one would imagine.
打ち合わせのあと外にでたらゲイ・パレードの真っ最中。すごくカラっとしていてみんな楽しそう。
After the meeting, the street was in the middle of the Gay Pride Parade. Everyone seemed like they were having a great time, and totally uninhibited.
