The Coolest Pop-Up Bar Designed by Tiia Vanhatapio & Co
Saturday, April 17th, 2010Chez Dominique, a restaurant in Helsinki, has just launched a pop-up bar designed by a Finnish fashion designer Tiia Vanhatapio, Interior Designer Hanni Koroma, flower shop Inbloom and ad agency Dynamo.
Seems like a fresh combination of fashion, drinks & food. Got the info about the pop-up bar from Vanhatapio’s newsletter, I’m a big fan of her designs. Her website gives a comprehensive info on what go’s on, she also has Facebook group and a Twitter account.
This gorgeous bar is open from 15th March to 24th June. Definitely a must see.
Let Me Like You & Get You
Sunday, April 11th, 2010It’s Sunday night and I was preparing some slides for tomorrow’s client meeting. Made me wonder.
When dealing with consumer goods eg. fashion, the goods are for obvious reasons first sold to retailers – in most cases. The best of the best, the whole collection, is shown to the retailers, and they pick the ones that the actual buyer will get to see in the store. Well, I’d like to see the whole collection and get the info where to buy, on each item.
The most annoying case is, that when you get interested, you are instructed to go to “leading department stores”. Why not just telling which ones and where?
