Belgradians like to drink coffee. It is ordinary and very hip scene on streets in recent times - guys or girls with cup of coffee in one hand, and cell or bag in other, notebook or daily newspapers. Walking. Smiling. Thinking. Laughing. In a hurry. So, Coffee Dream is (after Greenet), first authentic branded cafeterias in Belgrade. First opened, and in my opinion maybe still with best atmosphere

Today at 19h pm new Telenor showroom in Knez Mihailova street in Belgrade (main pedestrian street) will be opened.

During last Belgrade Design Week I had opportunity to listen lectures of very few masters of architecture and design I admire a lot. One of them was New York based graphic designer Mirko Ilic.

When talking about design, very often designers mention how desperately need some inspiration. From time to time. After so many hours of research, you stop thinking about process and productions, and start looking for fresh inspiration. Because it seems that everything is already invented or exist somewhere in the world. And you are watching magazines and turning over last pages of curent

I am not often talking/writing about shoes. Here I have opportunity to mention One big L letter in Serbian design.
