While wandering through Milan, I came across a café that felt like a hidden gem "PAN Milano". There’s something about local cafés,they have a way of showing you the real soul of a city. At PAN Milano, I was captivated by the mix of things: the sleek, innovative interior design, the distinctly Italian atmosphere, and even the menu, which felt like a nod to tradition with a modern twist. And then there were the people, young, stylish, and effortlessly cool. It all felt so uniquely Milanese, and I couldn’t help but want to freeze those moments. That’s how these two illustrations came to be, a little homage to the vibe, the details, and the inspiration I found in that café.
During my time in Copenhagen, I was completely immersed in the city’s architectural beauty. Every detail seemed intentional, like the whole city was one grand work of art. From the typography to the cafés and stores, and even the houses—both exterior and interior—everything reflected the perfect balance of beauty and style. I was truly in awe of how organized and stunning the city was, and it left such an impression on me that I had to capture those moments through illustrations.
During a one-day trip to Delft, I felt like I had stepped into a fairy tale. The city was charming, with its adorable houses and canals creating the perfect backdrop for a magical experience. What really stood out were the beautiful tile illustrations, a traditional craft that Delft is famous for. As I wandered the streets, I saw locals buying fresh flowers, adding to the charm of the day. Every detail felt like it belonged in a storybook, making it an unforgettable experience.
Every weekend in Rome, I find myself strolling through the tiny, winding streets around Campo dei Fiori. For the first few years, I would always get lost, wandering through the maze, hoping to stumble upon the perfect spot for my Italian breakfast. I was on the hunt for the perfect cornetto and cappuccino. Then, one day, I discovered "Caffè Formo Monte Forte", and everything changed. The moment I walked in, I was greeted by the heavenly scent of freshly baked pastries and the most delicious artisanal cornetto I’d ever tasted. It was like the whole neighborhood was infused with the warm, comforting smell of fresh bread.
