Nove generacije odgajaju se u duhu lijepoga i krug poznavatelja i ljubitelja dobrog dizajna je iz dana u dan sve veći, a s njim i zahtjevi postavljeni proizvođačima. Lijep i funkcionalan proizvod često nije dovoljan za uspjeh, bitno je ono “nešto” što će ga izdvojiti iz mase, te korisniku učiniti neodoljivim... ime poznatog dizajnera. Prvi su to prepoznali proizvođači proizvoda za široku uporabu, pozivajući relativno mlade, no sve inventivnije dizajnere da njihovim kolekcijama udahnu “dodanu vrijednost”, koja će se ogledati ne samo kroz jedinstven izgled nego i kroz marketinški potencijal. Dizajnersko je ime na proizvodu danas visokovrijedan alat u oglašavanju, stvaranju dodatnog “hypea” oko proizvoda, kreiranju cijene i, konačno, prodaji. Donosimo vam presjek imena i radova dizajnera koji vladaju svjetskom dizajnerskom scenom i uživaju status pravih zvijezda. Philippe Starck, Karim Rashid, Jasper Morrison, Ora-Ito... samo su neka od imena čije proizvode želimo i kojima se divimo. Dobrog dizajna i poznatih imena nije nedostajalo na izložbi “Skandinavski dizajn: više od mita”, koja je otvorena u Muzeju za umjetnost i obrt. Neočekivano dubok uvid u samu filozofiju skandinavske dizajnerske misli oduševio je posjetitelje. Također, donosimo vam izvješće s Ambiente, međunarodnog sajma namještaja, unutarnjeg uređenja i prateće industrije, koja se tradicionalno svake godine održava na Zagrebačkom velesajmu.

New generations are being raised in the spirit of the beautiful, which makes the circle of connoisseurs and lovers of good design bigger and bigger every day, and that results in the increase of demands that lie ahead of manufacturers. A lovely and functional product is often not enough to succeed, as it now takes that little “something” that separates it from the mass and makes it irresistible to the user… like a name of a famous designer. The first people to recognize that were manufacturers of widely used products, as they invited relatively young and increasingly inventive designers to bring the touch of “extra-value” to their collections, which would result not only in their unique look, but also in their marketing potential. A designer’s name on a product is now a highly valuable marketing tool in advertising, creating that added hype around the product, creating the price and, finally, completing the sale. We bring you a summary of the names and projects of designers who rule the world designer scene and enjoy a status of true celebrities. Philippe Starck, Karim Rashid, Jasper Morrison, Ora-Ito… are just some of the names whose products we want and who we admire. Good design and famous names weren’t absent from the exhibit “Scandinavian Design: More than a Myth”, which was opened in the Museum of Arts and Crafts. An unexpectedly deep insight into the very philosophy of Scandinavian designer thought has thrilled all the visitors. We also bring you a report from Ambienta, the International Fair of Furniture, Interior Decoration and Supporting Industry, which traditionally takes place at the Zagreb Fair every year. You can find advice on how to intelligently decorate a children’s bedroom and your bathroom in our “Interiors” section, while “Decorations” feature many fascinating objects that will cheer up any user.

To je igra u kojoj nema gubitnika – proizvođači dobivaju reputaciju elitnih, kupci dobivaju estetski trofej, a dizajneri slavu i širenje baze obožavatelja Napisala: Hela Biliæ 14 Lam p “Ho a “Hor rse” s lam e” diza jn p de sign irana za ed f or M Mooo i/ ooo i Lampa Zeppelin za Flos / Zeppelin lamp for Flos F enomen nije od jučer: još sredinom prošloga stoljeća velika dizajnerska imena, najpoznatija po oblikovanju namještaja, ponekad su posezala za igrom s nekim drugim predmetima svakodnevne uporabe i davala legitimitet i dodanu vrijednost njihovim proizvođačima. Puno su češće nego danas te igre ostajale iznimka, i nisu se pretvarale u velike komercijalne uspjehe. No, povijest dizajna je u međuvremenu od njih učinila kultne komade, a njihovi autori su postali velikani i uzor budućim generacijama. Tako je, primjerice, bračni par Charles i Ray Eames zaslužan i za kreiranje dječjih igračaka, dok je Arne Jacobsen, među ostalim, oblikovao zvučnike, ali i nakit za cijenjenu dansku kuću Georg Jensen. Pedesetak godina poslije jednu od novih kolekcija nakita Georg Jensen potpisuje Karim Rashid, jedan od najproduktivnijih dizajnera današnjice. Okolnosti tržišta u pola Marcel Wanders stoljeća uvelike su se promijenile: dostupnost informacije kroz masovne medije neusporedivo je veća, nove generacije se odgajaju u duhu lijepoga, krug poznavatelja i ljubitelja dobroga dizajna, bez obzira na formalno obrazovanje ili profesionalno nagnuće, širi se geometrijskom progresijom. Estetika i lijepo postali su obvezni pratilac svakodnevice – posuda za šećer nije više samo predmet za kojim ćete posegnuti kad pijete kavu, nego (po mogućnosti) i predmet divljenja, ili barem radosti u svakodnevnoj rutini. Jedinstveno oblikovan ručni sat više će reći o svome vlasniku nego marka automobila koju vozi, a kozmetički proizvodi kupuju se sve više zbog svojih neodoljivih pakiranja, a sve manje zbog (manje-više sličnog) sadržaja. Vrhunski je dizajn, jednostavno, zavladao svijetom. Prvi su to prepoznali proizvođači proizvoda za široku uporabu, pozivajući relativno mlade, no sve inventivnije dizajnere da njihovim kolekcijama udahnu “dodanu vrijednost” koja će se ogledati ne samo kroz jedinstven izgled nego i kroz marketinški potencijal. Dizajnersko je ime na proizvodu danas visokovrijedan alat u oglašavanju, stvaranju dodatnog “hypea” oko proizvoda, kreiranju cijene i konačno, prodaji. To je igra u kojoj nema gubitnika – proizvođači dobivaju reputaciju “elitnih” i ostvaruju odličan profit unatoč visokim honorarima za rad vrhunskih dizajnera, kupci dobivaju estetski trofej, predmet s kojim mogu 15 Trgovina Mandarina Duck koju je dizajnirao Wanders / Mabdarina Duck store designed by Wanders Wanders za Bisazzu / Wanders for Bisazza ostvariti emocionalan odnos (a za njega marketinški gurui ionako kažu da je najvažniji element u psihologiji prodaje), a dizajneri slavu i širenje baze obožavatelja. Upravo na tom novom valu stasala je cijela generacija vrhunskih dizajnera rođenih od sredine pedesetih godina naovamo. Oni su, osim neospornog talenta i ingenioznosti, imali sreću stvarati u tako produktivnim vremenima koja više nego ikada prepoznaju dizajn, a istodobno su orijentirana na potrošnju više nego ikada: stvari se danas ne kupuju da bi trajale nego da bi nas uveseljavale dok nam – ne dosade. Upravo je te kvalitete vremena prepoznao Karim Rashid. Po vlastitim riječima, on koristi dizajn kako bi kroz njega kao medij progovorio o duhu digitalnoga doba i nitko mu ne može poreći da je duh vremena savršeno zarobio u svojim zaigranim modelima, neopterećenima teškim atributima poput “svevremenosti” ili “vječnosti”. elemenata, poput početaka acid housea iz osamdesetih (i sam je bio DJ u mladosti). Nije stoga ni čudno da je Rashid prvi izbor mnogih tvrtki koje žele udahnuti nov život svojim proizvodima. Kao i većina njegovih kolega, Rashid najčešće radi za industriju interijera, odnosno namještaja, a njegove su neodoljive svjetiljke za Flos, Artemide ili Foscarini postale predmetom obožavanja. No, jednako se dobro snalazi dizajnirajući kutijice za parfeme Kenzo, Davidoff ili Issey Miyake, kreme YSL, satove za Alessi ili mp3 playere za Sony... Iza njega su i modni uspjesi, poput kolekcije Hypermix za kuću Pia Myrvold, izradio je seriju majica za Lacoste, modele sunčanih naočala za švedskog proizvođača Sceye, obuću talijanskog proizvođača Fessura... Svestrani Egipćanin nastanjen u Kanadi, koji je zanat učio u Milanu kod Gaetana Pescea i Ettorea Sottsassa, jedan je od najuspješnijih u biznisu. Dovoljno je pogledati nevjerojatno dugu listu njegovih klijenata. Guru kozmetičke industrije – Za mene ne postoji granica između “visokog” i “niskog” dizajna; u dizajnu vidim samo zbroj elemenata koji je zajednički ljepši od samih dijelova – objasnit će ovaj luckasti guru, čija fluidna estetika i korištenje umjetnih materijala prepoznatljivo vuku korijene iz nekih subkulturnih Wandersova piknik kolekcija Čini se da je upravo Rashid utjelovljenje “poučka” Marcela Wandersa, još jednog velikana srednje generacije dizajnera, koji kaže: – Dizajneri zapravo ne znaju ništa. Oni se najprije moraju naučiti slušati da bi mogli nešto postići. Zato mnogi dizajneri koji vide svoj rad kao “umjetnički”, nikada ne uspiju, unatoč talentu. Njihov akademski pristup ne zanima nikoga osim njih samih i možda pokojeg 16 Sofa Jasper Marcela Wandersa za Moooi / Marcel Wanders sofa Jasper for Moooi Ambalaža za OAO / Packing for OAO Tema broja Starckov Wedge Too, 2000. / Wedge Too, 2000 by Starck Starck za Samsonite / Starck for Samsonite drugog dizajnera. Dobar dizajner mora doprijeti do mnogih ljudi. Nizozemac Wanders, suvlasnik slavnog Moooija i suosnivač studija Droog, prošlogodišnji dobitnik Elle Dekorova priznanja “Dizajner godine” i vlasnik niza velikih međunarodnih nagrada, bez sumnje je pronašao dobitnu formulu za dodir s “mnogima”. U samo desetak godina, od nastanka njegove “Knotted Chair” do danas, postao je jedan od rodonačelnika struke, a nakon dokazivanja u “užoj” profesiji kroz rad za najpoznatije tvrtke, kao što su Moroso, Flos, B&B ili Kartell, počeo je istraživati i neke nove oblike. Možda je najbizarniji njegov rad na dizajniranju testa za trudnoću jednog nizozemskog proizvođača, ali Wanders je napravio puno i za Bisazzu kreirajući mozaike i uzorke pločica, tvrtku HE za koju je dizajnirao cijelu seriju elektroničkih uređaja, dok mu je Mandarina Duck poklonila povjerenje ne samo u dizajnu torbi nego i uređenju njihove london- ske trgovine. A kako proizvođači sportske opreme također sve češće posežu za uslugama slavnih dizajnera, Marcel Wanders svoj je doprinos dao Pumi. Rezultat je začudna piknik-kolekcija s cvjetnim uzorkom koja uključuje sve – od šatora do kovčežića i lopti, za luksuz na livadi. To je zaigrana Wandersova strana. Ona druga, ozbiljna, potpisuje neke od najodmjerenijih djela, čistih linija, poput Container Tablea. Palača Philippe Starck S Puminim brandom poigrao se i najveći od najvećih – Philippe Starck. Bez formalnog obrazovanja, Starck je počeo svoju “subverzivnu” dizajnersku igru u sedamdesetima, dizajnirajući dva noćna kluba u Parizu. Samo koju godinu poslije, tadašnji predsjednik Francuske Francois Mitterand angažirao ga je da uredi njegov privatni “kutak” u predsjedničkoj Elizejskoj palači. No, bez obzira na to je li njegov klijent predsjednik države ili otkačeni vlasnik diskoteke, Starck se uvijek jednako odnosio prema svojem radu, kao prema igri iz koje je uvijek izlazilo novo djelo, puno paradoksa i izazova. On je, sa svojom širinom i pristupom, svojevrsni “duhovni otac” današnjeg svijeta dizajna dostupnog i prepoznatljivog svima. Čak i potpuni analfabeti znaju za njega, ili za njegov paučasti Juicy Salif za Alessi, ili za barem jedan od slavnih predmeta koje je u svojih trideset godina karijere napravio. A lepeza je zaista široka: Starck potpisuje naočale Alain Mikli, tjesteninu Panzani, ambalažu za maslinovo ulje Sea Colli, aktovke Louis Vuitton, Samsoniteove kufere, umivaonike Duravit, odjeću za Wolford, skutere Aprilia, ali i megajahte. Slično kao Rashid, i Starck se kune u svoj duh proletera: – Pomalo se osjećam kao Robin Hood. Dizajniram jahtu od 300 milijuna dolara, a nakon toga kreiram dječju bočicu 17 INTERVIEW S BRAĆOM BOUROULLEC Braća Bouroullec u svojemu uredu / Bouroullec brothers in their office Primjećujete li razlike u percepciji vrhunskoga dizajna u posljednjih desetak godina? Postaje li šire tržište brže svjesno vrijednosti dizajna, i ako je tako, koji su razlozi za ovu tendenciju? - “Medijatizacija” dizajna se povećava. Sve više ljudi je zainteresirano. Ovaj trend završava u stvaranju zvijezda od aktera na terenu. Dizajneri su prisutniji u medijima, a tome je uzrok i generalni marketing koji se vrti oko dizajna i koji ga percipira kao alat za proširenje tržišta. Ljudi iz marketinga poklanjaju veću pažnju objektima i pričaju priču o njima. Zbog toga raste komunikacija dizajna. No, nismo sigurni da je masovno tržište doista dodirnuto ovom evolucijom, koja u konačnici zanima ipak uži krug ljudi. Mislite li da je danas dizajnersko ime jedan od ključnih faktora u uspjehu proizvoda? - Ime je bitno za ranu komunikaciju. No, kad je projekt potpisan od poznatog imena loš, to ostaje loš projekt. Čak i kada pronađe mjesto na tržištu na kraći rok, nema šanse potrajati. Ljudi ga prestaju kupovati vrlo brzo. Ako vidite novi projekt dizajnera koji vam se sviđa, možete imati pozitivnu predrasudu prema njemu, no zbog puno očekivanja možete se i lako razočarati. Ime definitivno nije dovoljno. Po kojim kriterijima odabirete na kojim ćete projektima raditi (osim novca, naravno)? Kakvu inspiraciju tražite? Volite li raznolikost u odabiru projekata? - Želja je najvažnija. Novac nam nikada nije bio motivacija. Pokušavamo raditi projekte koji nam se sviđaju i sretni smo što danas možemo birati. koja će stajati dva dolara. Radim za bogate koji mogu financirati moja istraživanja, a onda rezultate tih istraživanja primijenim na stvarima koje su namijenjene svima. Želim učiniti svijet malo boljim za moje pleme – izgovara “vječno dijete” u Starcku. Morrisonov tramvaj Elegantan i odmjeren u svojim kreacijama, engleski dizajner Jasper Morrison stekao je nedodirljiv status među poznavateljima, ali nije se uzdigao do široko obožavane “zvijezde” poput Marca Newsona ili Rashida. Umjesto dizajna koji “viče”, Morrison je ljubitelj praktičnih i svevremenih formi (za sebe tvrdi da je dizajner koncepta, a ne objekta) i po tome je istaknuta pojava u svojoj generaciji. Lansirala ga je Vitra, a prepoznali mnogi, pa je nastavio surađujući s Cappellinijem, Alessijem i mnogim drugim poznatim tvrtkama. No, i njegova je karijera obilježena pokojom eskapadom: tako ga je grad Hannover angažirao za dizajn novoga gradskog tramvaja, a Samsung je nedavno predstavio model mobilnog telefona i hladnjak s potpisom Jaspera Morrisona. Očito inspiriran električnim uređajima, Morrison je svojedobno dizajnirao i printer za Olivetti te cijelu kolekciju kućanskih uređaja marke Rowenta. Od cjedila do aviona Unutrašnjost zrakoplova Falcon, putne torbe Samsonite, 18 tenisice Nike, Tefalova tava, fen Vidal Sassoon, posuda za led Dom Perignon, bicikl Biomega, sunčane naočale Arpege Lanvin, restorani, diskografska studija... Mali je dio dugog popisa kreacija Marca Newsona, australskoga genija i jednoga od najutjecajnijih ljudi današnjeg dizajna, koji se školovao za skulptora i draguljara. Prve Newsonove ideje u dizajnu namještaja prepoznali su Japanci iz tvrtke Idée proizvevši njegov Black Hole Table, Orgone Lounge i druge radove. Od 1991. u svom studiju u Parizu radi za Flos, Cappellini i Moroso, no tek šest godina kasnije otvara veliki studio u Londonu u kojemu se potpuno posvećuje radu na predmetima svakodnevne uporabe, što ga je, tvrdi, oduvijek najviše i zanimalo. Neka od njegovih najzapaženijih djela su “obična” kućanska pomagala, nastala za Alessi, Magis i Iittalu, a istodobno ga veseli “čisti inženjering” kakav je dizajniranje aviosjedala. Prema vlastitim riječima, samo 70 posto njegovih radova ugleda svjetlost dana, a ostalo se kao loše odbacuje. Očito, neproduktivnost nije među Newsonovim problemima... Ora-Itov duh tisućljeća Ora-Ito je odigrao pravu igru s današnjim vremenom: kao dijete digitalne ere (rođen 1977.) shvatio je, u zagušenju masovnim medijima, da je granica između stvarnosti i mašte sve tanja i nevidljivija i da se dobra lažna priča može prodati puno bolje od loše istinite. Njegova se priča sastojala u lažnom predstavljanju kao art direktora nekih od najjačih svjetskih brandova, u lansiranju lažnih medijskih kampanja koje je plaćao sam umjesto svojih slavnih “klijenata”. Ora-Ito je upotrijebio postulate industrije za svoje (ne)časne ciljeve. A kako je imao i neosporan talent, Louis Vuitton i mnogi s čijim se imenima poigrao nisu se naljutili i tužili ga, nego ga pozvali da svoje ideje pretvori u nešto stvarno. Rijetko je viđen strelovitiji uspon u svijetu dizajna: današnji tridesetogodišnjak ima više posla negoli ga stiže napraviti, a dosad je, među ostalim, kreirao jubilarnu bocu Heinekena, Swatchov sat, reklamne doze za vodu Perrier, Toyotin futuristički prodajni salon, Adidasov parfem, mobitel francuskog proizvođača Sagema i cijelu seriju futurističkih kućanskih uređaja za Gorenje koja je nedavno predstavljena. No, možda je jedan od najzanimljivijih njegovih radova za LG: tzv. home network prikazuje kućanstvo u potpunosti opremljeno LG-jevim uređajima, no s tlocrtom koji vjerno prikazuje logotip korejskoga proizvođača. Duh novog tisućljeća u dizajnu možda se doista najbolje čita u kreativnim postupcima ovog francuskog “enfant terriblea”... Na koncu, ima i pravovjernih dizajnerskih zvijezda koje nisu puno “šarale” po “banalnijim” oblicima dizajna. Takva je, primjerice, proslavljena Španjolka (baskijskog podrijetla) Patricia Urquiola, Morosova muza koja se, osim dizajna interijera i dijelom arhitekture, rijetko upušta u avanture. Njezin inteligentni, intimni i emocionalni dizajn je pod jakim utjecajem Talijana Achilea Castiglionea i Vica Magistretta, a garniture za sjedenje s njezinim potpisom postale su predmet želje svih znalaca dobrog dizajna. Braća Ronan i Erwan Bouroullec, koju većina njihovih suvremenika spominje kao “svježu krv” svjetskog dizajna, također su se odlučila za čišći pristup i odabir rada u industriji interijera. Tome je sigurno kumovao Braća Bouroullec za Cappellini / Bouroullec brothers for Cappellini Giulio Cappellini koji ih je “posvojio” još u devedesetima. Cappellini, Vitra, Kartell, Magis, Ligne Rossett, Issey Miyake... mali su dio popisa njihovih klijenata. U ovu grupu uvjetno se može svrstati i Nijemac balkanskog(?) podrijetla Konstantin Grcic, koji se od ranih devedesetih afirmirao kroz rad na namještaju, objektima i rasvjeti za Driade, Flos, Cappellini, Iittalu... No, i njega sve češće “svrbe prsti”, pa je posljednjih godina potpisao i dizajn za Krupsov toster, Rosenthalovo posuđe, kemijske olovke Lamy ili mikrovalnu pećnicu Whirlpool. A hoće li mikrovalna pećnica, predmet s kojim se svako jutro susrećete sneni i nervozni, biti samo “mikrovalna” ili element radosti u vašem životu, hoće li imati potpis Grcica, Morrisona ili anonimnog industrijskog dizajnera iz pogona tvrtke, na vama je. Sretna je okolnost što to sada možemo odabrati.

It is a game where there are no losers – manufacturers receive an elite reputation, buyers receive an aesthetical trophy, while the designers receive fame and an expansion of their fan Written by: Hela Biliæ 20 T his phenomenon didn’t happen over night: back in the middle of the last century, famous designer names, which were most renowned for designing furniture, would sometimes start playing with some other objects of everyday usage and give legitimacy and extra-value to their manufacturers. Those games would remain an exception a lot more often than today, when they’re mostly turned into large commercial success stories. However, the history of design has turned them into cult pieces in the meantime, while their authors have become famous designers and role models for future generations. As an example, married couple Charles and Ray Eames deserve credit for creating children’s toys and Arne Jacobsen, among other things, designed loudspeakers, but also jewellery for the respected Danish house Georg Jensen. About fifty years later, one of the new Georg Jensen jewellery collections is signed by Karim Rashid, one of the most productive designers of our time. The situation on the market has completely changed over the last fifty years: the accessibility of information through the mass media is so much bigger, new generations are being raised in the culture of the beautiful, and the circle of connoisseurs and admirers of good design has expanded with geometrical progression, regardless of their formal education of professional occupation. Aesthetics and the term “beautiful” have become mandatory companions of our every-day life – a sugar dish is no longer just an object that you use when you drink coffee, but it’s rather also (if possible) an object of admiration, or at least something you’re happy about in your every-day routine. A uniquely shaped wristwatch will speak louder about its owner that the car brand that he’s driving, and cosmetic products are increasingly getting bought for their irresistible packaging, and not for their (more or less similar) substance. Top-notch design, simply put, rules the world. The first people to recognize it were manufacturers of wide-usage products, as they invited young and increasingly inventive designers to bring some “extra-value” to their collections, as that would result not only in a unique look, but also in improved marketing potential. A designer’s name on a product is a highly valuable marketing tool that creates that extra-hype around the product, which helps when the product’s price is created and when it is sold. It is a game where there are no losers – manufacturers receive an elite reputation and achieve excellent profit despite paying some high fees to top designers, buyers receive an aesthetical trophy and an object with which they can develop an emotional relationship (and according to marketing gurus, that’s the most important element of sales psychology), while designers receive fame and an expansion of their fan base. It’s precisely that new wave that has resulted in a whole new generation of top designers that were born from the 1950s onwards. Besides their undisputable talent and ingenious ability, they also had the good fortune to create in such productive times 21 Tepih Postdizajn / Postdesign carpet Rashid je dizajnirao i sunčane naočale za tvrtku Sceye / Rashid has designed sunglasses for Sceye company Jasper Morrison Cover st ory Jasper Morrisonov tramvaj / Jasper Morrison’s tram that recognize design more than ever before, while also being increasingly oriented towards consumption: these days, things aren’t bought so they could last, but rather so they could make us happy until we - get bored with them. Those precise qualities of our time were recognized by Karim Rashid. According to his own words, he uses design as a medium in order to speak about the spirit of the digital age, and no one can deny that he perfectly captured the spirit of our time in his playful models, which are uninhibited by heavy attributes like “timelessness” or “eternity”. The Guru of the Cosmetic Industry - For me, there is no such thing as a limit between “high” and “low” design; I only recognize design as a sum of elements that looks better than the parts themselves – this wacky guru explains, and his fluid aesthetics and usage of artificial materials draw recognizable roots from some subculture 22 elements, such as the early days of acid-house from the eighties (he was a DJ in his youth). Therefore, it’s hardly a surprise to see Rashid as a first choice of many companies that want to give a new breath of life to their products. Like most of his colleagues, Rashid predominantly works in the interior and furniture industry, and he created irresistible lamps for Flos, Artemide and Foscarini, which have become objects of adoration. However, he is just as good when it comes to designing little boxes for perfumes Kenzo, Davidoff or Issey Miyake or creams YSL, as well as wristwatches for Alessi or mp3 players for Sony… He has some fashion success in his resume as well, such as the Hypermix collection for house Pia Myrvold; he also created a series of t-shirts for Lacoste, sunglasses models for Swedish manufacturer Sceye, footwear for Italian manufacturer Fessuro… This versatile Egyptian lives in Canada, and he learned his trade in Milan with Gaetano Pesce and Ettorre Sottsasso, which resulted in him being one of the most successful people in the business. All it takes is glancing at his incredibly long list of clients. INTERVIEW WITH BOUROULLEC BROTHERS Do you notice any differences in how top design has been perceived over the last ten years? Is the widening market becoming more aware of the value of design, and if so, which are the reasons for that tendency? - The media influence on design keeps getting bigger. An increasing number of people are interested. This trend results in creating stars out of ones that take part in the game. Designers are becoming more present in the media, and that is also caused by general marketing that revolves around design and that perceives it as a tool for market expansion. The marketing people are paying more attention to objects and are telling a story about them. That’s what makes communication of design bigger. However, we’re not sure that the mass-market is truly influenced by this evolution, which eventually finds it place only to a smaller circle of people. Do you think that a designer’s name is one of the key elements in the success of the product? - A name is important in terms of early communication. However, if the product that was created by a famous designer is bad, nothing will change that. Even if it finds its place on the market in the short term, there’s no chance it will stay there. People will simply stop buying it very quickly. If you see a new product by a designer you really like, you may have some positive prejudices towards it, but you can also easily be disappointed due to all those expectations. The name is definitely not enough. Which are your criteria on choosing your projects (besides money, of course)? What kind of inspiration are you looking for? Do you prefer diversity when choosing your projects? - It’s all about the desire. Money was never a source of our motivation. We’re trying to work on projects we like and we’re happy to be in a position where we can choose. Wanders’s Picnic-Collection It appears that precisely Rashid is pure embodiment of a thesis by Marcel Wanders, who is another one of the great mid-generation designers, as he says: - Designers don’t really know anything. They first need to learn about listening in order to achieve something. That’s why many designers who see their work as something “artsy” never make it, despite all their talent. Their academic approach is of no interest to anybody but themselves, and maybe a few other designers. A good designer has to be able to reach many people. Dutch designer Wanders, co-owner of the famous Mooi and co-founder of the Droog Studio, as well as last year’s winner of Elle Dekor’s “Designer of the Year” award and owner of numerous big international recognitions, has undoubtedly found the winning formula to “reach many people”. In just about ten year since the creation of his “Knotted Chair” until today, he has become one of the leaders of the trade, and after proving himself in a more “narrow” field by working for some of the most renowned companies like Moroso, Flos, B&B or Kartell, he started exploring some different shapes as well. Perhaps the most bizarre of his projects was designing a pregnancy test for one of the Dutch manufacturers, but Wanders also achieved a lot for Bisazza by creating mosaics and samples for their tiles, as well as designing a whole series of electronic appliances for company HE, while Mandarina Duck not only trusted him with designing their bags, but also allowed him to decorate their store in London. And being that sports-merchandise manufacturers also often seek the services of famous designers, Marcel Wanders gave his contributions to Puma. That resulted in an unusual picnic-collection with a floral sample, and it included everything, from a tent to the little bags and balls, that you need for luxury on a meadow. That is what Wanders’s playful side is all about. The other side that is serious gets credit for some of the steadiest pure-lined projects, such as Container Table. The Philippe Starck Palace The Puma brand also received some treatment from the greatest of them all – Philippe Starck. Without any formal education, Starck began his “subversive” designer game in the seventies by designing two nightclubs in Paris. Just a few years later, the then-French President Francois Mitterand hired him to decorate his private “corner” within the presidential Elysee 23 Cover st ory Palace. But regardless of whether his client is a president of a country or a kooky discotheque owner, Starck has always gone about his business the same way, which is approaching it like a game that always resulted in a new piece of work that is filled with paradoxes and challenges. Thanks to his broadness and approach, he may be considered a “spiritual father” of the today’s world of design that is accessible and recognizable to everyone. Even those who are completely ignorant know about him, or about his spider-like Juicy Salif for Alessi, or about at least some of the famous objects he created during his thirty-year career. And there is so much to choose from: Starck has his signature on Alain Mikli glasses, Panzani pasta, packaging for Sea Colli olive oil, Louis Vutton briefcases, Samsonite luggage bags, Duravit washbasins, Wolford clothes, Aprilia scooters, but also mega-yachts. Just like Rashid, Starck also stands by his labour spirit: - I somewhat feel like Robin Hood. I design a 300-million-dollar yacht, and after that I create a children’s bottle that will cost two dollars. I work for those who are rich enough to finance my researches, and then I apply the results of those researches on things 24 Philippe Starck osmislio je interijer hotela Sanderson u Londonu / Philippe Starck is the author of the Sanderson hotel in London that are aimed at everybody. I want to make the world a slightly better place for my tribe – the “eternal child” within Starck says. Morrison’s Tramcar Elegant and well-measured in his creations, English designer Jasper Morrison attained in getting an untouchable status among connoisseurs, but never succeeded in reaching the widely beloved “star” like Marc Newson or Rashid. Instead of a “screaming” design, Morrison is a fan of practical and timeless forms (he claims to be a designer of concepts, not objects) and that makes him a distinguished figure in his generation. He was originally launched by Vitra, only to be recognized by many others, which resulted in working with Cappellini, Alessi and many other renowned companies. However, his career is also marked by several escapades: for example, the City of Hannover hired him to design their new city tramcar, while Samsung recently presented a mobile-telephone model and a refrigerator signed by Jasper Morrison. Clearly inspired by electrical devices, Morrison once designed a printer for Olivetti, as well as an entire collection of household appliances for Rowenta. From Strainers to Airplanes The inside of the Falcon airplane, Samsonite travel bags, Nike tennis shoes, Tefal’s frying pan, Vidal Sassoon blowdryers, Dom Perignon ice dish, Biomega bicycle, Arpege Lanvin sunglasses, restaurants, record studios… That is a small section of a long list of creations by Marc Newson, an Australian genius and one of the most influential people in today’s design, and it must be said that he educated himself to be a sculptor and jeweller. The first Newson’s Patricia Urquiola miljenica je tvrtke Moroso. Na slici sofa Smock / Moroso’s favorite designer Patricia Urquiola. On the photo is sofa Smock Antibodi, Patricia Urquiola za Moroso / Antibodi, Patricia Urquiola for Moroso ideas within the field of furniture design were recognized by Japanese people from company Idee as they manufactured his Black Hole Table, Orgone Lounge and other products. Since 1991, he has worked in his Paris studio for Flos, Cappellini and Moroso, but it took him six years to open a large studio in London where he completely dedicated himself to products of everyday usage, and he says that he was always primarily interested in that. Some of his trademark projects are “regular” household appliances that were created for Alessi, Magis and Iittala, and he is also enthralled by “pure engineering”, such as designing airplane seats. According to his own words, only 70% of his products ever see the light of day, and the others are rejected as unworthy. Clearly, lack of productivity isn’t among Newson’s problems… Ora-Ito’s Spirit of the Millenium Ora-Ito figured out the right game for our time: as a child of the digital era (born in 1977), he realized that the strangle of the mass-media made the border between reality and imagination as thin and invisible as possible, so a good false story has better potential that a bad true story. His story consisted of falsely presenting himself as an art director of some of the strongest world brands, as well as launching false media campaigns that he paid by himself, instead of his famous “clients”. Ora-Ito used the postulates of the industry for his (non) honourable goals. And being that you couldn’t deny his talent, Louis Vutton and many others whose names were objects of these pranks didn’t get upset and turn to lawsuits, but they rather invited him to turn his ideas into something real. Rarely has there been a more meteoric rise in the world of design: now a thirty-year old, he has much more work than time on his hands, and so far he created, among other things, the anniversary bottle of Heineken, Swatch wristwatch, advertisement doses for Perrier water, Toyota’s futuristic showroom, Adidas perfume, cell-phone for French manufacturer Sagem and a whole series of futuristic household appliances for Gorenje, which has just recently been presented. However, maybe one of his most interested projects took place for LG: the so-called “home network” displays a household completely equipped with LG appliances, but with a blueprint that clearly displays the Korean manufacturer’s logotype. The new millennium spirit of design may just be at its most evident in the creative actions of this French “enfant terrible”. But finally, there are also some righteous designer stars that haven’t done too much interfering in the more “banal” types of design. Such an example is famous Spanish (of Baskian decent) designer Patricia Urquiola, Moroso’s muse who, besides designing interiors and partly working in architecture, rarely finds herself embracing adventures. Her intelligent, intimate and emotional design is strongly influenced by Italians Achile Castiglione and Vico Magistretto, and her seating ensembles have become an object of desire for anyone with knowledge about good design. Brothers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, who are considered by most of their contemporaries as the “fresh blood” of world design, have also decided upon a purer approach and are choosing projects within the interior industry. Some of the credit for that certainly goes to Giulio Cappellini, as he “adopted” them back in the nineties. Cappellini, Vitra, Kartell, Magis, Ligne Rossett, Issey Miyake… are just some of the clients on their list. This group could also include a Balkan-originating (?) German architect Konstantin Grcic, who found affirmation back in the early nineties by working on furniture, objects and lighting for Driade, Flos, Cappellini, Iittala… But he’s also been getting that “itching feeling” lately, so over the last few years, he also designed the Krups toaster, Rosenthal dishes, Lamy pens or Whirlpool microwave oven. And whether that microwave oven, an object that you encounter every morning at your sleepiest and grumpiest, will just be a “microwave oven” or turn into an element of joy in your life, and whether it will be signed by Grcic, Morrison or some anonymous industrial designer from the company factory – that is up to you. The good news is that we can now make that choice. 25 S urađivali ste sa studijem za profesionalno uređenje interijera Stil Interijerima. Kako je došlo do te suradnje i na koji ste način oblikovali interijer? Stil Interijeri su pokrenuli projekt koji je zapravo još uvijek u razradi te još nismo imali nikakve angažmane. Ušao sam u taj projekt jer mi se svidjela ideja angažiranja dizajnera ili umjetnika u uređenju privatnog ili poslovnog prostora. Meni je to bilo zanimljivo i oni su me kontaktirali znajući da sam radio na uređenju svog dućana i nekih privatnih stanova. Pogotovo mi se svidjelo to što se oni ne temelje samo na uređenju interijera, nego bi se htjeli proširiti i na uređivanje nekih posebnih detalja, tipa dizajnerske stolice ili lampe, nekih komada koji se mogu lijepo uklopiti u ambijent, a da se ne mora naručivati cijeli projekt koji bi osmislio dizajner. Volim raditi interijere i to mi je tercijarna zanimacija. Imam toliko kreativnih ideja u glavi da ih ne mogu sve izraziti kroz modu. Shvatio sam da u svom stanu, kad god imam vremena, uvijek nešto radim. Tako da mi je ova suradnja bila nešto potpuno prirodno. Oni su fotografirali stvari koje sam već radio, moj dućan, stan i još neke privatne stanove. Za sada mi još nisu došli s nekom narudžbom, tako da je projekt još uvijek u počecima. A kada idem nešto raditi, uvijek prvo razgovaram s osobom kojoj to radim i moram vidjeti koliko se može spojiti funkcionalnost s umjetničkom domenom. To je i kroz moj dizajnerski rad najbitnija točka – spajanje industrijskog dizajna s artističkim detaljima. Ali mora biti funkcionalno, ne podnosim kada nešto nije funkcionalno. “Koncept mi je nit vodilja. Bez obzira što radim, interijer ili modni dizajn, to je vizija koju moram zaokružiti” ROBERT SEVER Klasièar u duši Jedan od naših najpoznatijih modnih dizajnera Rober Sever govori o suradnji sa studijem za uređenje interijera, modnoj sceni u Hrvatskoj i neograničenosti u svojoj kreativnosti Razgovarala: Ivana Bioèina Foto: Kristina Faziniæ i Hari Ðerð / www.stilinterijer.hr 26 Suradnja sa Stil Interijerima koji nude usluge dizajnera interijera, ali i modnih kreatora i arhitekata, dobar je primjer interdisciplinarnosti koja danas vlada. Koliko je ona bitna i na kojoj je razini u Hrvatskoj? U modi se vrlo često događa da su dizajneri inspirirani arhitekturom, pogotovo oni koji rade minimalizam. Recimo, Narciso Rodriguez je inspiriran arhitekturom, a Tom Ford je baš završio arhitekturu tako da on primarno nije bio školovani modni dizajner. Tu, naravno, ima poveznica, ali za svoj dizajn ne vidim u tome previše inspiracije. No danas zaista ima puno tih spojeva, mješavine utjecaja i stvari. Ako je netko dovoljno kreativan, onda ima kreativnosti za različite forme i oblike. Pa i sam Michelangelo je bio slikar, kipar, arhitekt i pjesnik. Iako ima i ljudi koji se stvarno ograniče i žele biti dobri samo na jednom polju djelovanja. Mene to jako limitira kao osobu i kreativca, ne mogu biti samo dizajner. Možda će me jednog dana zanimati fotografija ili ću snimati filmove, nikad se ne zna. Jer ako imaš kreativnost u srži, ne možeš se limitirati. Na Milanskom trijenalu 2005. godine otvorena je izložba Dressing Ourselves. Kustos Alessandro Guerriero pozvao je osobe iz svijeta arhitekture, dizajna, glazbe i umjetnosti da daju svoje viđenje suvremene kulture i značenja mode unutar nje. Kakvo je značenje mode unutar suvremene kulture? Moda je zapravo danas prije svega biznis. Ljudi su apsolutno opsjednuti time kako će izgledati i vrlo im je bitno da se izražavaju kroz svoj vizualni identitet. To više nije ni pita- Interview Proljeće/ljeto 2007. godine / Spring/summer 2007 Umjetnički duh osjeti se u svakom kutku / The artistic spirit can be felt in every corner 27 Interview nje trenda, ni pitanje vremena, to je jednostavno jedan medij koji se jako proširio, pogotovo od devedesetih godina. Prije se točno znalo što su bile dvadesete, tridesete ili pedesete. Cijelo razdoblje se moglo zaokružiti u jednu tendenciju i jedan trend. No posljednjih dvadesetak godina stalno se miješaju utjecaji. Danas je moda na neki način odraz čovjekove individualnosti i ništa drugo. Ne mislim da je moda nešto što se nužno nameće da bi netko izgledao na određen način, kao što se nametalo prije. Danas svatko ima pravo na svoj izbor. Moda je medij kroz koji svaki individualac odašilje poruku o sebi. Ona je bitna, ali nije najbitnija. Meni je apsurdno da jedna haljina bude in, a druga out. Smiješno je da to izlazi iz usta jednog dizajnera, ali je istina. Apsolutno je glupo da se sad nosi jedna vrsta cipela i torbe. Ali ljudi to vole, imaju stalnu glad za nečim novim što moda zapravo osigurava. Danas su društvo i život toliko ubrzani da je nužno da ima toliko puno revija, trendova i tendencija u odijevanju. Moda je super ako se gleda kao biznis, no ako se gleda općenito, zapravo nema smisla. Jer koji je smisao u stalnom ponavljanju nečega što je već viđeno. S jedne strane, moda je apsurdna, a, s druge strane, svi to volimo i želimo, što je paradoks suvremenog života. “U mom dizajnerskom radu najbitnija točka je spajanje industrijskog dizajna s artističkim detaljima” Na istoj izložbi su osobe iz svijeta arhitekture, dizajna, glazbe i umjetnosti morale napraviti odijelo koje će biti odraz njih i njihovih razmišljanja o modi. Kako bi Vaše odijelo izgledalo? Dobre traperice, pamučna majica, vesta od kašmira, cipele i dobar sat. Vrlo sam bazičan u svom odijevanju i više volim samozatajnu varijantu. Zapravo sam klasičar u duši, jer i kad pogledam modu, stvari koje me uvijek zadovoljavaju su Chanel i Valentino. Valentino je nedavno proslavio četrdeset godina rada i haljina koju je prikazivao prije četrdeset godina može se jednako nositi i danas. Ima istu estetiku, što je poanta dobrog dizajna. Isto kao i Chanel. Poanta u modi je da brand uvijek bude prepoznatljiv, a klasika je postigla taj bezvremenski dizajn. Kao što ste spomenuli, moda se u posljednje vrijeme temelji na ponavljanju već viđenog. Je li po tome moda 21. stoljeća zapravo pomoda? Na neki način jest. To se može gledati s različitih perspektiva, ali mislim da je poanta u tome da dizajneri serviraju nešto što je njima zanimljivo u tom trenutku. Dizajneri sugeriraju trend koji oni misle da je potreban i nužan za suvremenu ženu ili muškarca. Osobno ne shvaćam zašto se stalno vraćaju trendovi, jer baza je uvijek ista, svi hoće hlače, suknju, majicu i sako. Samo je neki detalj drukčiji. Nije mi jasno zašto ljudi ne naprave nešto novo u odijevanju jer se već jako dugo nije dogodilo nešto za što bi svi rekli da je to nešto novo. Čak i ako netko radi futurizam, to se obično temelji na science fiction filmovima iz sedamdesetih. Tako da ni taj futurizam opet nema nekakvog smisla. Uvijek se citiraju stvari koje su bile nove i zanimljive prije. 28 Modna scena je u Hrvatskoj posljednjih nekoliko godina istinski zaživjela. Kakvi su bili Vaši počeci i kakvo je, po Vašemu mišljenju, danas stanje na našoj modnoj sceni? Kad sam krenuo s cijelom svojom dizajnerskom pričom, postojale su Ivana Popović i Keti Balog. One su bile pioniri. U to su Bogatstvo boja odlika je svakog Severova uratka / Every project by Sever features a richness of colours vrijeme paralelno krenule i I-gle, a onda se pojavio Croa-Porter i sila nekih novih dizajnera koji su prije svega bili image dizajneri, što je još uvijek problem u Hrvatskoj. Ako ljudi nemaju gdje prodavati svoje kreacije, prodaju ih u svojim sobama, što uopće ne podržava tu cijelu ideju o modi kao biznisu. Meni je drago da postoje ljudi koji su kreativni i uvijek govorim da će vrijeme pokazati tko je doista dobar. Na kraju, moda i to što se događa kod nas nije biznis, a to nekako ne podržava jedno drugo, jer ako imaš reviju, moraš imati pozadinu iza sebe da bi mogao i dalje proizvoditi kolekcije. A ja kolekcijom ne smatram deset modela, nego barem trideset različitih izlaza. To je normalna forma i standard. A ako to želiš kvalitetno izraditi i imati kvalitetne materijale, to puno košta. Nije to sport za svakoga. Koje biste naše dizajnere posebno izdvojili? Definitivno najviše cijenim Ivanu Popović, koja ima svoju individualnost, pristup, razmišljanja i ne prati trendove. Jako volim I-gle iz istih razloga. Od mlađih su mi bili vrlo zanimljivi Elfs jer su drukčiji. Da sam velika modna industrija, definitivno bih uložio u njih i njihov dizajn. Ostali variraju od sezone do sezone, ali uvijek gledam na iste stvari. Bitno mi je da netko ima dobar koncept, dobar dizajn, da je izrada izvrsna i da je komercijalno i nosivo. Vaše su kolekcije uvijek popraćene zanimljivim i maštovitim konceptom. Koliko je važno konceptualiziranje ideje prije materijalizacije i oblikujete li ideju prije ili tijekom razrade kolekcije? Koncept mi je vrlo važan i uvijek imam neku priču u glavi koja mora biti realizirana od početka do kraja. Koncept mi je nit vodilja. Bez obzira što radim, interijer ili modni dizajn, to je vizija koju moram zaokružiti. Na temelju toga onda izabirem i materijale koje ću koristiti i gdje ću prezentirati reviju, koja će muzika svirati, kakve će biti frizure, kakav make up. Uvijek mora biti jedan zaokruženi moment u tvom životu i radu. Uvijek mora biti nešto što je autentično i moje, jer kada se osvrnem za deset godina i vidim da nešto nisam napravio kako sam zamislio i htio, onda nema poante. Kad završim određenu kolekciju, već tijekom izrade znam što ću raditi za sljedeću. To dođe kao odgovor na ono što sam radio. Tako je kolekcija proljeće/ ljeto bila vrlo ženstvena i optimistična, kao jedna ljubavna priča koja se možda dogodila ili možda nije, a kada smo je završavali, bila je toliko bogata u svojim slojevima i detaljima da sam se zasitio. Tako da je nova kolekcija najprije trebala biti čisti minimalizam, no ja zapravo nisam minimalist u svom razmišljanju, ali na kraju sam je jako dobro izbalansirao. Kolekcija ima malo boja, sve je jako tamno, od jakih boja je samo narančasta kao poanta. Ideja se nadovezala na prošlu kao jedna opozicija jer i dalje je prisutna romantika, no sad je to jedna malo tamnija strana te moje Sever djevojke. Ideja mi je bila što bi Edith Piaf nosila da je još uvijek živa. Ona je bila individualka i živjela je vrlo nepristrano, ali u isto vrijeme imala je i mračan karakter. No ja ne volim premračno jer sam po prirodi vrlo optimističan i pozitivan. Htio sam napraviti jednu bazu za suvremenu Edith i kakva bi ona bila. Koji su Vam planovi za budućnost? Imamo dućan u Zagrebu i Zadru, što je vrlo dobro za početak. Sad ide nova kolekcija, s tim da ćemo pokušati od sljedeće sezone prikazivati sezonu unaprijed, što nije baš tendencija u Hrvatskoj. To je produkcijski malo zahtjevniji zalogaj. Planiramo pokrenuti industrijski dizajn kako bismo mogli raditi stvari u veličinama i da budu niže cijene. Paralelno s time namjeravam početkom godine ići na sajam mladih Who’s Next u Parizu, da vidim na koji način to funkcionira. Ako budemo dovoljno zadovoljni i budemo mislili da možemo konkurirati vanjskim tržištima, pokušat ćemo se progurati i vani, korak po korak. Ne volim ništa preko noći. To je jedino dobro i pametno što se može. Želim napredovati u dizajnu jer me ne zadovoljava da budem dizajner samo u Hrvatskoj. Želim se razvijati i vidjeti gdje su mi granice, dokle mogu stići. 29 Interview ROBERT SEVER A Lover of Classics in His Soul One of our most renowned fashion designers Robert Sever talks about his cooperation with an interior design studio, the Croatian fashion scene and the lack of boundaries in his creativity Interviewed by: Ivana Bioèina Photo: Kristina Faziniæ and Hari Ðerð / www.stilinterijer.hr 30 Y ou cooperated with the professional interior design studio “Stil Interijeri”. How did that cooperation come about and in which way did you design the interior? “Stil Interijeri” started a project that is actually still in its starting phase, so we’re yet to take up any specific projects. I entered that project because I liked the idea of hiring a designer or an artist to decorate a private or business space. I found that interesting and they contacted me knowing that I worked on decorating my store and some private apartments. I especially liked the fact that they aren’t limited to merely decorating interiors, but are rather looking to expand to decorating some special details, such as a designer chair or a lamp, which are pieces that could nicely fit into a certain ambience without having to order the entire project that would be shaped by a designer. I like working on interiors and that is my tertiary field of work. I have so many creative ideas in my head that it’s not possible to express them all through fashion. I realized that, whenever I have some spare time, I’m always working on something in my apartment. That’s why I found this cooperation to be something perfectly natural. They photographed some of the things I already worked on, such as my store, my apartment and some other private apartments. They’re yet to come to me with some specific order though, so this project is still at its beginning. And when I am working on something, I always start by talking to the person that ordered it and I have to see how much room there is for combining functionality with the artistic dimension. That’s the most important element of my designer work – combining industrial design with artistic details. But it must be functional, as I can’t stand something not being functional. “A concept is my guiding line. Regardless of what I do, whether it’s an interior or a fashion design, it is a vision that I must fulfil” Working with “Stil Interijeri”, which is a firm that offers services of interior designers as well as fashion creators and architects, is a good example of the interdisciplinary approach that is now dominant. How important is that approach and how present is it in Croatia? It’s very common in fashion that designers are inspired by architecture, especially if they’re practicing minimalism. For example, Narciso Rodriguez is inspired by architecture, and Tom Ford even graduated architecture and isn’t primarily educated to be a fashion designer. There are certainly some connections, but I don’t see too much inspiration there for my design. However, there are certainly plenty of those combinations, mixtures of influences and different things today. If somebody is creative enough, then he has plenty of creativity for different forms and shapes. Even Michelangelo himself was a painter, sculptor, architect and poet. Although, there are some people who really limit themselves and focus on being good enough in only one field of work. I find that awfully limiting as a person and as a creator, and I can’t be a designer and nothing more. Maybe I’ll be interested in photography one day or I’ll be making movies, you never know. Because if you have that creativity deep inside you, you can’t force yourself to be limited. At the Milan Triennale in 2005, we witnessed an exhibit called “Dressing Ourselves”. Custodian Alessandro Guerriero invited people from the worlds of architecture, design, music and art to contribute their opinions on modern culture and the significance of fashion within it. What is the meaning of fashion within modern culture? These days, fashion is primarily a business. People are absolutely obsessed with how they look and they find it very important to express themselves through their visual identity. It is no longer a question of a trend or a time period, and now it is simply a medium that has really expanded, especially since the nineties. In the old days, you could precisely point out what stood for the twenties, the thirties or the fifties. You were able to round up an entire period into one tendency and one trend. However, influences have constantly been mixing over the last twenty years. Today’s fashion is simply a reflection of a person’s individuality and nothing more. I don’t feel that fashion is something that is necessarily imposed upon us in order to make someone look a certain way, as was the case before. Everyone has the right to make choices today. Fashion is a medium through which individuals send a message about themselves. It matters, but it’s not the be all and end all. I find it absurd that one dress is “in” while the other one is “out”. It’s ridiculous that a designer can say something like that, but it’s the truth. It’s absolutely stupid that you’re only allowed to wear one type of shoes or purses. But people love that and they have a constant hunger for something new, which is what fashion really enables. Today’s society and life have become so rapid that all those fashion shows, trends and clothing tendencies are actually necessary. Fashion rocks if it’s observed as a business, but if you generally look at it, it really has no sense. I mean, what is the point of constantly repeating something that has already been seen? In one way, fashion is absurd, and in another way, we all want it and love it, which is really a paradox of the modern life. Modeli iz kolekcije Proljeće/ljeto 2007. / Models from the Spring/summer 2007 collection Žarke boje u kombinaciji s tradicionalnim materijalima / Bright colours combined with traditional materials At that same exhibit, people from the worlds of architecture, design, music and art had to design a suit that would serve as a reflection of them and their attitudes towards fashion. What would your suit look like? Good jeans, a cotton shirt, a cashmere sweater, shoes and a good watch. I’m very basic when it comes to my dressing and I prefer a low-key option. I’m actually just a classical person because, even when I pay attention to fashion, the things that always bring me satisfaction are Chanel and Valentino. Valentino recently celebrated forty years of his career and the dress he displayed forty years ago is still wearable today. It has the same aesthetics, which is the goal of a good design. The same thing goes for Chanel. The goal in fashion is to always make a recognizable brand, and the classics have achieved that timeless design. As you already mentioned, fashion has lately been based on repeating what was already seen. Does that make fashion of the 21st century somewhat trendy? In a way, yes. It can be observed from different perspectives, but I think the point is that designers always serve something they find interesting at that particular moment. Designers suggest a trend they feel is necessary and essential for a modern woman or a man. I personally don’t 31 Interview Robert Sever inspiraciju često pronalazi na putovanjima / Robert Sever often finds his inspirations while travelling understand the same old trends constantly returning, because the base is always the same – everyone wants some pants, skirt, shirt and a jacket. The only things that are changing are some details. I don’t understand why people don’t come up with something new when it comes to clothes, because it’s really been a long time since something happened that had everyone acknowledging as a novelty. Even if someone’s working on something futuristic, it is usually based on science-fiction movies from the seventies. That takes away all the meaning from that futurism also. Things that used to be new and interesting always end up being referred to. Over the last few years, the Croatian fashion scene really came to life. What can you say about your beginnings and what is your opinion about the state of our fashion scene? Back when I started my whole designer story, the ones already present were Ivana Popović and Keti Balog. They were the pioneers. That same period saw the emergence of “I-gle”, which was followed by the arrival of “Cro-a-Porter” and many other new designers that used to be image designers, which is still a problem in Croatia. If people don’t have a place where they can sell their creations, they sell them in their bedrooms, which does nothing to confirm this whole idea of fashion as a business. I’m glad that there are some creative people out there and I always say that time will show who really has that quality. When it comes to it, fashion and all the things surrounding it here don’t really qualify as a business, and those things don’t really support each other because, if you’re doing a show, you must have that support behind you that enables you to still keep producing collections. And when I say collection, I don’t consider ten models to be enough, as it takes at least thirty different exits. That’s 32 “The most important element of my designer work is combining industrial design with artistic details” the normal form and standard. And if you want to make quality creations and have quality materials, that is going to cost you a lot of money. This is not a sport for anyone. Who would you single out among our designers? I definitely have most respect for Ivana Popović, as she has her individuality, approach, line of thought and doesn’t follow trends. I really like “I-gle” for the same reasons. Among the younger groups, I find “Elfs” really interesting because they are different. If I were a large fashion industry, I would definitely be investing into them and their design. The other designers go up and down from season to season, but I always observe the same things. It’s important to see that someone has a good concept, good design, that the fabrication is excellent and that it’s commercial and wearable. Your collections are always accompanied by interesting and imaginative concepts. How important is it to create the concept of the idea before you materialize it and do you shape the idea prior or during the collection’s creation? Concept is very important to me and I always have a story in my head that has to be accomplished from beginning to end. A concept is my guiding line. Regardless of what I’m working on, whether it’s an interior or a fashion design, it is a vision that I must fulfil. That is the basis of my choice of materials to be used, as well as of where I will throw the fashion show, which music will be playing, what will be done about hairstyles or makeup styles. At all times, those things must result in a complete moment in one’s life and work. It always has to be something that is authentic and mine, because when I look back ten years from now and I see that I didn’t do something in the way I imagined and wanted, then there’s no point. When I finish a certain collection, during that same process I already know what I’ll be doing the next time around. It simply ends up being a reply to my previous project. That’s why the spring/summer collection was so feminine and optimistic, like a love story that might have happened or might have not, and when we went about finishing it, it was so rich in all its layers and details that I was simply fed up. That resulted in the plan to make the new collection purely minimalist, but I’m not really a minimalist in my philosophy, so I ended up balancing it in a really good way. The collection has very few colours, it’s all very dark, and orange is the only strong colour that represents the focal point. The idea responded to the previous idea as an opposition because there was still a lot of romance, but now I showed a slightly darker side of my Sever-girl. My idea revolved around the things I thought Edith Piaf would wear if she were still alive. She was an individual and she lived a very uninhibited life, but she also had a dark character at the same time. I don’t like things to be too dark because my nature is really very optimistic and positive. I wanted to make a base for a contemporary Edith and all the things that she would represent. What are your plans for the future? We have stores in Zagreb and Zadar, which is pretty good for starters. The new collection is on its way, and I must point out that we will try to be a season ahead of schedule as of next season, which is not really a tendency in Croatia. That is a slightly bigger challenge production-wise. We are planning on starting on in industrial design in order to produce things in different sizes, which would also make the prices lower. Along with that, I’m planning on going to the “Who’s Next” youth fair in the start of the year, just to see the way in which it works. If we’re satisfied enough and we feel that we can compete on foreign markets, we will try to break through abroad, one step at a time. I don’t like to do anything overnight. It is the only decent and smart thing that is possible. I want to make strides in the field of design because it doesn’t satisfy me to just be a designer in Croatia. I want to develop myself and find out about my limits, see how far I could make it. 33 Akt ualno Poruke sa sjevera Dizajn na “skandinavski način” već je pola stoljeća sinonim za lakoću, skromnost, funkcionalnost i demokratičnost. Izložba “Skandinavski dizajn: više od mita” u zagrebačkome Muzeju za umjetnost i obrt nudi neočekivano dubok uvid u samu filozofiju skandinavske dizajnerske misli Piše: Ivan Mladina P Foto: Muzej za umjetnost i obrt ojam skandinavskog dizajna već je dugo vremena dio opće kulture, premda će većina površnih promatrača uz pojam skandinavskog dizajna odmah vezati riječ IKEA. Ipak, dizajn na “skandinavski način” seže znatno dalje u prošlost, i već je pola stoljeća sinonim za lakoću, skromnost, funkcionalnost i demokratičnost. Izložba “Skandinavski dizajn: više od mita”, otvorena od 23. rujna do 18. studenoga u zagrebačkome Muzeju za umjetnost i obrt, nudi neočekivano dubok uvid u samu filozofiju skandinavske dizajnerske misli. Ta je misao u posljednjih pedeset godina bila predmetom nebrojenih znanstvenih rasprava, informativnih izložbi i marketinških kampanja. Nije slučajno da skandinavski dizajn danas uživa veće poštovanje i popularnost nego ikad prije. Svoj prvi procvat doživljava ranih pedesetih godina, na krilima uspona demokratičnosti i općeg optimizma. Veličanstveni rezultati toga prvog, “zlatnog doba” skandinavskog dizajna, i danas su predmet proučavanja, inspiracije i divljenja svjetske dizajnerske zajednice.

Danas, upravo zbog kompatibilnosti svojih ideoloških postavki sa suvremenim svjetskim društvenim kretanjima, skandinavski dizajn je jedan od najvažnijih čimbenika globalnih dizajnerskih kretanja. Uza sve veću globalizaciju, nacionalnost više nije prva premisa. Postalo je prirodno razmatrati veće cjeline, na primjer, nordijske zemlje u odnosu na globalnu zajednicu. Današnji su skandinavski dizajneri orijentirani prema globalnome, istodobno crpeći snagu i inspiraciju iz svojih lokalnih korijena. Čuveni filozof Italo Calvino u svom je tekstu Šest prijedloga za sljedeće tisućljeće razmotrio neke od vrijednosti koje će biti od velike važnosti za dizajnere u novom tisućljeću: lakoća, brzina, točnost, vidljivost, mnogostrukost i dosljednost. Sama izložba je koncipirana na način grupiranja više od 200 eksponata koji najbolje epitomiziraju svaku od navedenih vrijednosti.

The exhibit “Scandinavian Design: More than a Myth” at the Museum of Arts and Crafts in Zagreb offers an unusually deep insight into the very philosophy of the Scandinavian designer thought 36 Posuđe Kilta/Teema, dizajn Kaj Franck (Finska), 1945/53. / Tableware Kilta/Teema by Kaj Franck (Finland), 1945/53 sen ajn Kay Boje Igračka, diz b y y Kay 51. / The to (Danska), 19 ), nmark 1951 Bojesen (De Event s T he term “Scandinavian design” has long been a part of general knowledge, although most of the superficial observers will attach the word IKEA the very minute you mention Scandinavian design. However, the “Scandinavian way” of design reaches much further into the past, and for over half of century, it has been synonymous for effortlessness, modesty, functionality and democracy. The exhibit “Scandinavian Design: More than a Myth”, running from September 23rd to November 18th at the Museum of Arts and Crafts in Zagreb, offers an unusually deep insight into the very philosophy of the Scandinavian designer thought. Over the last fifty years, that thought has been the subject of numerous scientific discussions, informative exhibits and marketing campaigns. It’s no accident that Scandinavian design now enjoys a larger amount of respect and popularity than ever before. It experienced its first period of blossoming in the early 1950s, on the wings of the rise of democracy and general optimism. The magnificent results of that original “golden era” of Scandinavian design are still the subject of studying, inspiration and admiration by the designer community of the world. After it nearly disappeared during the postmodern utopias of the 70s and the 80s, Scandinavian design started its rise again in the early 90s under the increasing influence of the up-and-coming globalisation and revalorisation of practical values. Today’s Scandinavian design is one of the most important factors of global designer events precisely because of the compatibility of its ideological foundations with the contemporary social happenings in the world. Alongside the ever-increasing globalisation, nationality is no longer the most important premise. It has become natural to observe larger units, and Nordic countries opposed to the global community make for an excellent choice. Today’s Scandinavian designers are oriented towards the global, but draw their strength and inspiration from their local roots at the same time. In his text Six Suggestions for the Next Millennium, famous philosopher Italo Calvino has looked into some of the values that will be of great importance for the designers of the new millennium: effortlessness, quickness, accuracy, visibility, multiplicity and consistency. The exhibit itself has the concept of putting over 200 items into groups that do the best job of epitomising each of the abovementioned values. The exhibit confirms that Scandinavian design stands as a crucial element in the history of design, but it also looks into myths and stereotypes that have piled up around this subject. The final part of the exhibit, titled “Plenty of Stereotypes”, is represented by a string of objects that paraphrase the elements connected to the Scandinavian design and the preconceived picture the world has of the Nordic countries. Visiting this exhibit is a very special and inspirational experience. From generally familiar products to rarely seen exotics, the observer develops discrete and logical sequences that reveal all the enchantments of the thoughts from the cold north, as their shapes and warmth speak in a language that is unusually easy to understand. The items are filled with irresistible beauty, sincere lack of pretentiousness and calming practicality, as this is one of the rare exhibits with a message that can be interpreted by anyone in any way, without fear that they will go wrong. Is there any better way to pay homage to democracy and the significance of the individual in modern society?

Za redizajn je zaslužan arhitekt Richard Hywel Evans, čovjek koji je projektirao i prvi “bezugljični” hotel na svijetu, a vjerojatno najljepši wellness na svijetu dio je luksuznoga hotelskoga resorta Huvafen Fushi. Podvodni spa je zamišljen kao niz prizora koji se po želji gosta mogu mijenjati: sve je pomično – od poda do stropova koji mogu otkrivati više ili manje ljepota Indijskog oceana. A opuštanje je u ovome tirkiznom carstvu – zajamčeno. Novi hram nogometa Camp Nou, kultni stadion kultnoga nogometnog kluba Barcelone, dobiva novo lice po izboru glasovitog arhitektonskog studija Foster&Partners. “Samo mijena stalna jest”, mogla bi se nazvati maštovita adaptacija postojećeg stadiona, u kojem će ulogu vanjske fasade preuzeti tisuće polikarbonatnih i staklenih panela u bojama kluba, te će se fasada, matrica boja i refleksija stalno mijenjati, a cijela površina fasade moći će se koristiti i kao divovski display. Novi izgled stadiona dio je proslave 50. obljetnice njegova postojanja. The New Shrine of Football A Spa in the Indian Ocean One of the most beautiful underwater areas in the world, the one around the Maldives, has witnessed a new and improved version of the first underwater spa centre in the world. The redesign was preformed by architect Richard Hywel Evans, who also projected the first “noncarbon” hotel in the world, and probably the most beautiful wellness in the world belongs to the luxurious hotel resort Huvafen Fushi. The underwater spa is created as a string of images that can be changed in accordance to the guests’ wishes: everything is mobile – from the floors to the ceilings, which can reveal a bigger or a smaller portion of the Indian Ocean’s beauties. And relaxation in this turquoise empire is – guaranteed. Malezijski Blizanci Kratica PGCC krije ime Penang Global City Center, a riječ je o projektu arhitekata iz studija Asymptote koji tako zamišljaju novi poslovni centar malezijskoga grada Penanga. Otočna metropola trebala bi dobiti suvremenu arhitektonsku os koja se, tvrde njezini autori, oslanja na prirodno okruženje – u neposrednoj blizini je prirodni rezervat Penang Hill koji bi se, prema projektu, trebao reflektirati u iskrivljenim zrcalnim strukturama tornjeva. No, istodobno, djelo je i posveta bogatoj malezijskoj kulturi. 38 Camp Nou, the legendary stadium of the legendary Football Club Barcelona, is about to receive a makeover preformed by renowned architectonic studio Foster&Partners. “The only thing that’s constant is the change itself”, is what you could call this imaginative adaptation of the existing stadium where the role of the outside façade will be taken by thousands of polycarbonate and glass panels in the club’s colours, which will result in the façade, matrix of colours and the reflection constantly changing, and the whole surface of the façade will be able to be used as a gigantic display. The stadium’s new look is a part of the celebrations due to its 50th anniversary. The Malaysian Twins PGCC stands for Penang Global City Centre, and it reveals a project by architects from studio Asymptote, who are about to create a new business centre of the Malaysian city Penang. The island’s capital should receive a contemporary architectonic axis that will, according to the authors, rely on the natural environment – a natural reservation Penang Hill is located nearby, and the project is made so that it reflects itself in the distorted mirror structures of the towers. But at the same time, this is also homage to the rich Malaysian culture. Rekorder San Francisca San Francisco se priprema na obaranje rekorda: natječaj za novi tranzitni centar iznjedrio je tri projekta u užem izboru, a sva tri uključuju i izgradnju najvišega poslovnog tornja u gradu, koji bi sa svojim komercijalnim, stambenim i poslovnim sadržajima financirao ostatak projekta. Osim tih standardnih sadržaja, u bazi zgrade nalazit će se željeznički kolodvor koji će udomiti buduću ultrabrzu željeznicu. Svim projektima (Rogers Stirk Harbour&Partners, Skidmore Owings&Merrill i Pelli Clarke Pelli) zajednička je visina tornja od preko 300 metara! Apeiron bez granica Pripremila / Edited by: Aurelija Vukušiæ Dubai, igralište arhitekata sa svojim otvorenim budžetima za najatraktivnije projekte na svijetu, trebao bi dobiti svoj Apeiron s pogledom na Arapski zaljev. A kako “apeiron” na grčkome znači vječnost, tako bi vječno trajalo i opisivanje što sve sadrži ova megastruktura zamišljena kao ultimativni umjetni vodeni park prirode. Spomenimo samo privatne plaže, vrtove, bazene, pristanište za brodove, hotel, helidrom, umjetničku galeriju… Dio strukture proteže se i u podmorje, a, vjerovali ili ne, građevina bi zahvaljujući jakome suncu trebala proizvoditi dvije trećine energije potrebne za svoje održavanje. Apeiron Without Limits Dubai, the playground for architects with their open budgets for the most attractive projects in the world, should receive its Apeiron with an open view over the Arabic Gulf. And being that “apeiron” stands for “eternity” in Greek, that’s how much time it would take to describe all the features within this mega-structure that is designed as an ultimate artificial water park of nature. Let’s just mention private beaches, gardens, swimming pools, a dock berth for ships, hotel, heliport, art gallery… A part of the structure also reaches the underwater area, and believe it or not, the building itself should, thanks to the strong sunlight, produce two thirds of the energy that‘s necessary for its maintenance. News San Francisco’s Record Holder San Francisco is about to break a record: the contest for the new transit centre gave birth to three projects in contention, and all three feature the construction of the highest business tower in the city, which would finance the remainder of the project with its commercial, residential and business features. Besides those standard features, the building base will boast a train station, which will be home for the future ultra-fast railroad. All these projects (Rogers Stirk Harbour&Partners, Skidmore Owings&Merrill and Pelli Clarke Pelli) share the tower height of over 300 metres. Otvoren Veluxov natječaj Od prošloga mjeseca svi zainteresirani studenti arhitekture i njihovi profesori mogu se prijaviti na međunarodni Veluxov natječaj “Light of Tomorrow”, koji se koncentrira na temu dnevne svjetlosti u arhitekturi. – Naša vizija je unaprijediti dnevno svjetlo, svjež zrak i kvalitetu života. Nagradom se želi potaknuti studente arhitekture da ispitaju temu sunčeve svjetlosti kako bi stvorili dublje razumijevanje ovog važnog izvora svjetlosti i energije. Sve projekte ocjenjuje žiri sastavljen od priznatih arhitekata, koji predstavljaju različite poglede na arhitekturu i dnevno svjetlo, kao i različita zemljopisna podneblja – izjavila je Jasna Jelinek iz tvrtke Velux Hrvatska. The Opening of the Velux Contest Ever since last month, all the interested architecture students and their professors can register to the international Velux contest called “Light of Tomorrow”, which focuses on the subject of daylight in architecture. - Our vision is to improve the daylight, fresh air and the quality of life. This award wants to encourage architecture students to ponder over the subject of sunlight in order to create a deeper understanding of this essential source of light and energy. All the projects will be evaluated by a jury that consists of respected architects, who represent different views on architecture and the daylight, as well as different geographical areas – says Jasna Jelinek from company Velux Croatia. 39 Invest icije POSLOVNO-TRGOVAČKI CENTRI U HRVATSKOJ – MEKE DOBRE ZARADE Splitski “Joker“ ne srami se svijeta Nedavno otvoreneni trgovački centar u vlasništvu splitskog poduzetnika Željka Keruma, vrijedan 70 milijuna eura, prvi je projekt koji se realizira na temelju novog Generalnog urbanističkog plana koji je Split dobio u prosincu 2005. godine Piše: Mary Novosel nje je golemo, tako da postoji i pozamašna lista čekanja. Vlasnik nema namjeru prodavati poslovne prostore u sastavu trgovačkog centra, koji su trenutačno u najmu po cijeni od 12 do 35 eura po četvornome metru. Centar je nastao dijelom privatnog ulaganja gospodina Keruma (60 posto), a dijelom ulaganja poslovnog partnera Immorent leasing iz grupe Erste banke (40 posto). Nadamo se plitska Brodarica, u sklopu koje je otvoren trgovački centar “Joker“, postala je nedavno nezaobilazno odredište tisuća posjetitelja željnih konzumiranja svih usluga koje ovaj projekt – na 54 tisuće četvornih metara i vrijedan oko 70 milijuna eura – može pružiti. Uz stotinjak prodavaonica, ugostiteljskih objekata, supermarket, kino, ljetni bazen i zimsko klizalište, centar “Joker“ – koji je dobio ime po inicijalima Joška, sina vlasnika Željka Keruma – otvorio je nova radna mjesta i posve novu viziju Splita kao grada sve povoljnijeg za ulaganja, trgovinu i šoping. Najstariji trgovački centar u Europi „Sukiennenice“ nalazi se u poljskom Krakowu koji ima „Rynek Glowny“, najveći trg u Europi (200x200 m). Centar posluje više od 700 godina, a sadašnji izgled datira iz davne 1555. godine S Prvi po GUP-u nakon 22 godine Samo otvorenje mnoge je ostavilo bez daha. Centar ima četiri kata koja okružuju golemu galeriju sa staklenom kupolom na vrhu. Na najvišoj etaži, do koje se može doći dizalom i stubištem, nalaze se restoran i zimsko klizalište. Čitav kompleks je dobro osvijetljen, klimatiziran i ozvučen. – Svi poslovni prostori, njih stotinu, iznajmljeni su, zanima- 40 da će uloženo biti isplaćeno za desetak godina jer će prihodi od najma pokriti rate kredita – rekla je Danijela Špalj, asistentica vlasnika, dodajući kako u budućnosti ne planiraju veće radove osim na proširenju parkirališta (trenutačno 380 mjesta) koje bi se realiziralo traženjem zakupa zemljišta od Grada zapadno od centra. Glavni projektant ing. Zoran Jaramaz napominje kako je trgovački centar “Joker“ prvi projekt koji se realizira na temelju novoga Generalnog urbanističkog plana, koji je Split dobio 2005. godine, a prema kojem je na mjestu nekadašnjih pogona “Jugoplastike“ predviđena poslovna zona. Nova struktura kretanja gradom Na otvorenju prvoga prodajnog centra u Splitu, bio je i Vladin savjetnik za urbanizam ing. Jerko Rošin, koji je pozdravio inicijativu i pohvalio rad kolege ing. Jamaraza. – Prostor je reprezentativan, rađen funkcionalno i potpuno je hrvatski proizvod, u njega je uložen splitski kapital, a to je više nego pohvalno. Predviđam da će se sada promijeniti i sama struktura kretanja jer će se težište seliti prema sjeveru pa će doći do pravilnije raspodjele prometa unutar grada. Iako će s vremenom zanimanje malo pasti, predviđam da će ostati jedna fina preraspodjela koju je do sada na sjevernom dijelu poluotoka onemogućavalo brodogradilište. Za razliku od svojih splitskih kolega, arhitekt Nenad Fabijanić ne dijeli preveliko oduševljenje novim zdanjem u gradu. - “Joker“ je prilično blizu centra, što neizbježno mora dovesti do gušće prometne koncentracije, a koliko sam upoznat, mogao bi nastati i problem s parkiralištem, pogotovo početkom blagdana kada će naglo porasti “šoping-groznica“. Takvi centri obično žrtvuju svoje prvotne proporcije na račun što veće “kubature“ pa se često mogu zateći građevine s puno suvišnih kvadrata koje onda treba nekako osmisliti. Najbolje je centre ovakve namjene graditi izvan grada jer je tako lakše ostvariti prvotnu zamisao, postići komociju i veliko parkiralište koje se u ovim slučajevima mora imati – kaže ing. Fabijanić, duhovito nadopunjujući svoj komentar rečenicom: “Nemoguće je staviti debelu nogu u malu cipelu.“ Glavni projektant je ing. Zoran Jaramaz / The main designer of the project is engineer Zoran Jaramaz - Na početku smo zatekli tri velike proizvodne hale “socijalističkog“ tipa nasuprot kojih je brodogradilište. S obzirom da su bile dobro očuvane, maksimalno smo ih iskoristili. Srušili smo dio dvorišta i tako dobili prostor za halu centra koji je danas na sjecištu triju ulica. Postavili smo nove temelje te iskopali garažu, koliko su nam to okolnosti dopuštale. Glavne radove je obavila tvrtka “Svod“ s kooperantima, a nekad je znalo biti i do 500 radnika na terenu. Kada je pri kraju radova postavljena i staklena fasada, “Joker“ je napokon postao centar koji se neće posramiti svijeta – kazuje Jaramaz, dodajući kako je ovaj polivalentni centar među najvećima u Dalmaciji. Sa svojih 140.000 četvornih metara, titula najvećeg u Hrvatskoj, pripala je Tower Centru u Rijeci. Boom centara donosi bogat izbor i oštru konkurenciju Usporedimo li “Joker” s ostalim većim centrima u Hrvatskoj, kao što su: - Tower centar u Rijeci, sa 140.000 četvornih metara, 1100 zaposlenih, u vrijednosti 150 milijuna eura, 2150 parkirališnih mjesta, sedam nadzemnih katova, poslovnim tornjem od 15 katova, - City Center One iz Zagreba, u vrijednosti 100 milijuna eura, 61.000 četvornih metara, 1700 parkirališnih mjesta, 1200 zaposlenih, 85 prodavaonica, kafića, restorana, - King Kross iz Zagreba, u vrijednosti 150 milijuna eura, 150 četvornih metara, 1800 parkirališnih mjesta, 1000 zaposlenih, 95 prodavaonica, kafića, restorana, - Avenue Mall iz Zagreba, u vrijednosti 70 milijuna eura, 79.000 četvornih metara 800 zaposlenih, 750 parkirališnih mjesta, 130 prodavaonica, kafića, restorana, kinodvorana, onda splitski poslovno-trgovački centar spada među srednje veće centre, u kategoriji sa City centrom Varaždin, City galerijom u Zadru i Shopping City Zagreb centrom. Sadržajno je bogatiji od većine centara, koji pretežno nude “klasični tretman“ u obliku prodavaonica, kafića i restorana. Ova slika mogla bi se uskoro mijenjati jer je do sredine svibnja ove godine Ministarstvu gospodarstva, rada i poduzetništva podneseno 116 zahtjeva, a od toga je izdano 88 suglasnosti za gradnju trgovačkih centara, površine veće od 3000 metara četvornih. 41 Invest ment s Written by: Mary Novosel BUSINESS-SHOPPING CENTRES IN CROATIA – “MECCAS” OF GOOD PROFIT “Joker” from Split Isn’t Ashamed Facing the World The recently opened shopping centre, owned by Split businessman Željko Kerum and worth 70 million euros, is the first completed project that is based on the new General Urban Plan that Split received in December of 2005 B rodarica in Split, featuring the just-opened shopping centre “Joker”, has recently become an unavoidable destination for thousands of visitors that wish to consume all the services provided by this project, which spreads across 54 000 square metres and has cost about 70 million euros. Along with around a hundred stores, restaurant objects, a supermarket, cinema, swimming pool for the summer and ice rink for the winter, the “Joker” centre – which received its name after the initials of Joško, owner Željko Kerum’s 42 son – also opened many new job positions and a completely new vision of Split as a city that is getting more rewarding for investments, trading and shopping. The First in Accordance to GUP After 22 Years The opening itself left many visitors breathless. The centre has four floors that surround an enormous gallery with a glass cupola at the top. The highest floor, which is reachable via an elevator and the staircase, features a restaurant and the winter ice rink. The entire complex Iznajmljeni su svi poslovni prostori /All of the business premises have been rented Prvo splitsko multipleks kino / First mulitpleks cinema in Split Centar ima četiri kata koja okružuju golemu galeriju sa staklenom kupolom na vrhu / The centre has four floors that surround an enormous gallery with a glass cupola at the top has excellent lighting, air conditioning and sound qualities. - All of the business premises, about a hundred of them, have been rented and the interest is huge, even to the point that there is a large waiting list. The owner has no intention of selling the business premises within the shopping centre, as they are currently rented at a price of 12-35 euros per square metre. The centre came about partly due to Mr. Kerum’s private investment (60 percent) and partly due to the investment by business partner Immorent Leasing from the Erste Bank Group (40 percent). We’re hoping that the investments will pay off within the next ten years as the renting payments we receive will cover the credit instalments – says owner’s assistant Danijela Špalj, adding that no larger work is planned in the foreseeable future apart from widening the parking lot (currently featuring 380 spaces), which could be accomplished by asking the City to rent their land just west of the centre. Engineer Zoran Jaramaz, the main designer of the project, points out that the shopping centre “Joker” is the first project that is based on the new General Urban Plan that was adopted in Split in 2005, and which predicted a business zone in a location that was previously held by “Jugoplastika” factories. - In the beginning, we found three large manufacturing “Sukiennenice”, which is the oldest shopping centre in Europe, is located in Krakow in Poland where we also find “Rynek Glowny”, the largest square in Europe (200x200 m). The centre has been in business for over 700 years, and the way it looks today dates back to 1555 hall-rooms of the “socialist” type that stood opposite to the shipyard. Considering they were in pretty good shape, we took maximum advantage of them. We demolished a part of the yard, which resulted in a space for the centre’s gallery that now stands at the intersection of three streets. We set the new foundations and started digging the garage, as much as we were allowed to by the circumstances. The main portion of the work was preformed by the “Svod” firm with their subcontractors, and there were sometimes as many as 500 workers in the location. When the glass façade was assembled near the end of the works, “Joker” finally became a centre that is not ashamed facing the world – Jaramaz says, adding that this multi-functional centre is among the biggest in Dalmatia. The title of the biggest in Croatia, with its 140.000 square metres, belongs to the Tower Centre in Rijeka. 43 Invest ment s “Joker” zapošljava oko 1000 ljudi / “Joker” employes about 1000 people ble, which often results in buildings with many redundant square metres that need to find their purpose. It’s best to build these types of centres out of the city because it is then easier to accomplish the original idea, as well as achieve the comfort and the large parking lot, which is essential for these projects – says architect Fabijanić, completing his commentary with an amusing sentence: “It’s not possible to put a fat foot into a small shoe.” The Centres’ Boom Brings a Variety of Options and Stiff Competition The New Structure of Movement in the City At the opening of the first shopping centre in Split, we found engineer Jerko Rošin, the Government’s urbanism advisor, and he greeted this initiative and praised the work of his colleague, engineer Jaramaz. - The space is representative, created in functional manner and is a completely Croatian product with funds from Split invested in it, which is more than praiseworthy. I predict the change in the movement structure itself because this will result in the removal of the focal point towards the north, which will lead in the more balanced distribution of traffic within the city. Although interest is bound to drop over time, I predict that this will result in a nice and permanent re-distribution in the northern part of the peninsula that was made impossible by the shipyard up until now. Unlike his Split colleagues, architect Nenad Fabijanić isn’t overly enthused about the city’s new facility. - “Joker” is pretty near the centre, which is bound to lead to a more intense concentration of traffic, and as far as I know, we could witness some problems with the parking lot, especially close to the holidays when the “shopping fever” suddenly increases. Such centres usually sacrifice their original proportions for as big a “cubature” as possi- If we compare “Joker” to the other larger centres in Croatia, such as: - Tower Centre in Rijeka, with 140.000 square metres, 1100 employees, with 150 million euros of value, 2150 parking spaces, seven overground floors, a fifteen-floor business tower, - City Centre One in Zagreb, with 100 million euros of value, 61.000 square metres, 1700 parking spaces, 1200 employees, 85 stores, coffee shops, restaurants, - King Cross in Zagreb, with 150 million euros of value, 150 square metres, 1800 parking spaces, 1000 employees, 95 stores, coffee shops, restaurants, - Avenue Mall in Zagreb, with 70 million euros of value, 79.000 square metres, 800 employees, 750 parking spaces, 130 stores, coffee shops, restaurants, cinema halls, then we can place the business-shopping centre in Split in the mid-large group of centres, along with City Centre Varaždin, City Gallery in Zadar and Shopping City Zagreb Centre. It has a larger variety of features than the majority of centres, which predominantly offer the “classical treatment” of stores, coffee shops and restaurants. This picture could soon receive some changes because, since this year’s May, the Ministry of Economy, Labour and Entrepreneurship has received 116 requests, and 88 of them were answered in confirmative manner for constructing shopping centres larger than 3000 square metres. 45 Report Ambienta oduševila i ove godine Piše: Nina Boškoviæ 46 Foto: Kristina Faziniæ Ovogodišnja Ambienta potvrdila je status vodećeg sajma namještaja, unutarnjeg uređenja i prateće industrije na ovim prostorima. Osim dizajnerima, proizvođačima i poslovnim ljudima, sajam je posebno zanimljiv krajnjim kupcima, kao nepresušan izvor inspiracije za vlastite kreacije Alto Trade M eđunarodni sajam namještaja, unutarnjeg uređenja i prateće industrije Ambienta i ove se godine pokazao vrlo utjecajnim okupljalištem svih relevantnih subjekata iz drvoprerađivačke industrije i industrije namještaja u ovom dijelu Europe, koji su ponudili sve najbolje što u ovom trenutku nude potrošačima. Susret proizvođača, stručnjaka, dizajnera, znanstvenika, poslovnih ljudi i krajnjih potrošača, kao takav sve više postaje i značajan marketinški čimbenik razvoja domaće drvne industrije i industrije namještaja. Na Ambienti je ove godine sudjelovalo 718 izlagača, od toga 336 domaćih, a ostali iz 26 zemalja svijeta. Na više od 48.000 četvornih metara izložbenog prostora prikazani su najnoviji proizvodi, usluge i tehnologije u drvoprerađivačkoj industriji, i to u šest tematskih cjelina (Namještaj za stanovanje, Kuhinje i kupaonice, Uredski namještaj i namještaj za opremanje objekata, Proizvodi za unutarnje i vanjsko uređenje, Strojevi i alati za drvnu industriju te Repromaterijal za drvnu industriju namještaja), a primjetno je kako iz godine u godinu domaći proizvođači sve više prate svjetske trendove, no kako i dalje pate od “boljke” jeftinog i serijski proizvedenog namještaja. No, ove su godine ponovno odskočili mladi hrvatski dizajneri koji su kupcima ponudili moderan i atraktivan dizajn te individualan pristup. Najviše zanimanja posjetitelja izazvao je ipak štand slovenske tvrtke Kolpa San, koja je izložila ovosezonske novitete – isprintane kade i tuš-kabine s fotografijom vlasnika s posebnim osvjetljenjem. Gaberit prodaja privukla je sve modelom Balena 600, tuš-WC sjedalom koje jedino u Europi nudi različite funkcije: tuširanje, sušenje toplim zrakom, pročišćavanje zraka. Za intimnu njegu žena, predstavljen je i Lady tuš s daljinskim upravljačem za podešavanje željenih funkcija! Madraci Hespo osvježeni su novim tkaninama koje su prirodno funkcionalne, tj. bez dodavanja kemijskih aditiva postižu antibakterijska, antistresna, revitalizirajuća i aromaterapijska svojstva. Tvrtka Inkea, prošlogodišnji dobitnik Zlatne plakete sajma, i ove je godine predložila minimalizam i jednostavan crnobijelo-sivi namještaj za mlade urbane ljude koji cijene dizajn i inovacije. Veliko zanimanje svake godine izaziva i kuhinjski program, a posjetitelji su se posebno zaustavljali na štandovima tvrtke Duplić&Duplić, koja je i ove sezone ponudila vrlo atraktivne kuhinje. Ovisno o željama kupaca, one stoje od 5000 do 50.000 kuna, a projektiraju se prema željama i potrebama kupaca, pa je svaka unikatna! Rustica Moderna oduševila je sve one koji vole autentičnost i namještaj koji je ugodan za oko i dušu, dok je B.A.M.T. trgovina iz Zagreba predstavila Ambient planer – online program za planiranje namještaja u 2D. Program je besplatan za korištenje i vrlo jednostavan, poziva se s www.ambient.hr i nužan je pri planiranju rasporeda namještaja u prostoru. Themelia 47 Drvni cluster sjevernozapadne Hrvatske na oko 100 četvornih metara izložio je kompletno opremljen stan za mlade ljude koji prvi put imaju prigodu urediti svoj životni prostor, a namještaj je izrađen u dvije linije – jedna od iverala, druga od furnira i masiva – a karakteristike su im jednostavnost i funkcionalnost. Nizozemska tvrtka Četiri ribe privukla je pozornost namještajem i ukrasima od tikovine, dok je štand tvrtke Alto trade, koja je na tržištu prisutna već deset godina, okupila sve zaljubljenike u dekorativne tkanine za namještaj, zavjese, zastornice i sjedeće garniture s mogućnošću odabira vrlo modernog i atraktivnog tekstila. Ambienta se i ove godine, kao sajam, s nizom stručnih i popratnih događanja te značajnim posjetom, pokazala važnom za razvoj kulture stanovanja uopće, jer je osim izlagača namještaja okupila i veliki broj izlagača proizvoda za uređenje interijera i proizvođača pratećih industrija. Prema istraživanjima mišljenja domaćih izlagača, Ambienta je poprimila karakter najznačajnijega godišnjeg događaja u Hrvatskoj za drvoprerađivačku i industriju namještaja, i kao takva postiže sve veći uspjeh iz godine u godinu. Osim toga, ona je posebno zanimljiva krajnjim kupcima, jer osim što su u prigodi vidjeti sve najbolje od noviteta, trendova i smjerova u proizvodnji i ponudi namještaja što im se trenutačno nudi na domaćem tržištu, ona im je i nepresušno vrelo inspiracije za vlastite maštovite kreacije. Time se Ambienta pokazala i kao sve važniji promotor razvoja kulture stanovanja uopće. Projekt “Drvo je prvo” Hrvatska gospodarska komora, u suradnji s Hrvatskim šumama i Ministarstvom poljoprivrede, šumarstva i vodnoga gospodarstva, pokrenula je na Ambienti edukacijsko-promotivnu kampanju pod nazivom “Drvo je prvo”, kojoj je cilj povećanje uporabe drvne mase, odnosno utjecaj na svijest potrošača o kvaliteti i prednostima drva i drvnih proizvoda. Naime, zbog male potrošnje drva po stanovniku u Hrvatskoj, koja je do sedam puta manja nego u, primjerice, Austriji ili Finskoj, raznim komunikacijskim kanalima, kako su najavili iz HGK, pokušat će se izmijeniti navike hrvatskih potrošača i potaknuti veća uporaba drva u graditeljstvu. Rezultati istraživanja koje je provela Agencija Gfk pokazali su kako Hrvati i dalje više preferiraju strane brandove namještaja, a isto se potvrđuje i statističkim rezultatima prodaje jer je gotovo 60 posto namještaja iz uvoza. S druge strane, ispitanici su potvrdili da im je najvažnija kvaliteta i funkcionalnost, ali imaju i vrlo pozitivne asocijacije na riječ “drvo”, odnosno suglasni su da to znači nešto kvalitetno, dok je riječ “hrast” sinonim hrvatskog namještaja. Ispitanici smatraju da bi domaći proizvođači trebali poboljšati dizajn i učiniti namještaj modernijim i atraktivnijim, a sugerira se i agilniji marketing. ���������� �������� 48 ����������� ������������������������������������������������������������ ������������������������������������������������������� ����������������������������������������������� ������������������������������������������� Report Rustica Moderna Another Triumphant Year for Ambienta Written by: Nina Boškoviæ Photo: Kristina Faziniæ 49 Report Meblo I This year’s Ambienta has confirmed the status of the leading fair of furniture, interior decoration and supporting industry in this area. Besides to designers, manufacturers and businessmen, this fair particularly appeals to utmost buyers as a never-ending source of inspiration for their own creations. nternational fair of furniture, interior decoration and supporting industry Ambienta has taken another year to demonstrate itself as a very influential gathering point for all relevant subjects from the lumber industry and furniture industry of this part of Europe, as they offered the best they have to the customers. The meeting of manufacturers, experts, designers, scientists, businessmen and utmost buyers thus becomes a more significant marketing factor for the development of our lumber and furniture industries. As many as 718 exhibitors participated at this year’s Ambienta, 336 of which came from our country, while the others came from 26 different world countries. More than 48.000 square metres of exhibit-space hosted the newest products, services and technologies in the lumber industry that were divided into six thematic units (Furniture for Living, Kitchens and Bathrooms, Office Furniture and Furniture for Equipping Objects, Products for Interior and Exterior Decoration, Machines and Tools for the Lumber Industry, and Repromaterials for the Lumber Industry of 50 Furniture), and as the years go by, it is noticeable that local manufacturers are paying more and more attention to the world trends, but their weak spot is still the cheap and serially manufactured furniture. However, this year saw another standout performance by young Croatian designers who offered their customers a modern and attractive design, as well as an individual approach. The visitors showed most interest to the booth of Slovenian firm Kolpa San, which exhibited this year’s novelties – printed bathtubs and shower-tubs with the photograph of the owner and special lighting. Gaberit Sales attracted everyone with the Balena 600 model, which is a shower-toilet seat that offers more functions than any other in Europe: showering, drying with warm air, and air purification. And for the ladies and their nursing care, there was the presentation of Lady Shower with remote control that enables you to choose between various functions! Hespo mattresses are refreshed with new fabrics that are The “Wood Comes First” Project The Croatian Chamber of Economics, working with Croatian Forests and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management, started an educational-promotional campaign at Ambienta called “Wood Comes First”, which will attempt to increase the usage of wood masses, as well as increase the people’s awareness regarding the quality and advantages of wood and wooden products. Due to the small consumption of wood per person in Croatia, which is up to seven times smaller than in Austria or Finland, the people at the CCE have announced that they will use various communication channels to try to change the habits of Croatian consumers, as well as encourage a larger usage of wood in the construction business. The results of the research done by the GFK Agency show that Croatians still prefer foreign brands of furniture, and that same fact is confirmed by statistical purchasing results, as almost 60 percent of the furniture has been imported. On the other hand, the examinees confirmed that they most care about quality and functionality, but they also have very positive associations on the word “wood”, as they agreed that it stands for something with quality, while the word “oak” is synonymous to Croatian furniture. The examinees feel that the local manufacturers should improve their design and make their furniture more modern and attractive, and a more agile manner of marketing is also considered to be needed. naturally functional, which means that it doesn’t take any chemical substances to achieve anti-bacteria, anti-stress, revitalizing and aroma-therapeutic characteristics. Company Inkea, the last year’s winner of the fair’s Golden Plaque, has once again opted for minimalism and simple black-white-grey furniture for young urban people that appreciate design and innovations. The kitchen programme also draws plenty of attention every year, and visitors particularly made sure to stop by the Duplić&Duplić booths, as that company presented some very attractive kitchens this year. Depending on the customers’ wishes, they cost from 5000 to 50.000 kunas, and are designed according to the wishes and needs of the buyers, which makes every one of them unique. Rustica Moderna improved the mood of everyone who likes authentic furniture that is easy on the eye and the soul, while store B.A.M.T. from Zagreb presented the “Ambient” planner – an online programme for planning furniture in 2D format. The programme can be used for free and it is very simple, it can be found at www.ambient.hr and is necessary while planning the arrangement of your furniture within a room. The wood cluster of the Northwestern Croatia has taken up about 100 square metres to reveal a completely furnished apartment for young people who have their first chance to decorate a living space. The furniture was made in two lines – one out of plywood, and the other out of veneer and massive wood – and its characteristics are simplicity and functionality. Dutch firm Four Fishes has drawn attention with their furniture and teak decorations, while booth-company Alto Trade, which has been present on the market for ten years, gathered everyone who loves decorative fabrics for furniture, curtains, shutters and seating ensembles with the possibility of choosing very modern and attractive textiles. Ambienta as a fair has taken another year, with a string of specialized and accompanying events and a significant attendance, to demonstrate its importance for the overall culture of living, because not only has it assembled the exhibitors of furniture, but there was also a large number of exhibitors of products for interior decoration, as well as manufacturers of supporting industries. According to the opinions of local exhibitors, Ambienta has established itself as the most significant annual event in Croatia for the lumbering and furniture industries, and as such, it accomplishes more and more success as the years go by. Besides that, it is also especially interesting to utmost buyers, because besides the fact that it offers them a chance to see the best novelties, trends and directions in the production and offering of furniture on our market at the moment, it also serves as a never-ending source of inspiration for their own imaginative creations. Those are the reasons Ambienta has proven itself as an increasingly important development promoter of the overall culture of living. 51 Foto: Marijo Bandiæ / HTZ Plitvička jezera su najpoznatiji hrvatski nacionalni park, na popisu svjetske baštine UNESCO-a / Plitvice Lakes are the most famous Croatian national park, and are a part of the UNESCO List of World Heritage NP Plitvièka jezera nezaboravna šetnja uz šum vodopada Bilo da vas u ovaj goranski kraj dovede želja za delicijama ili šetnja po svježem zraku uz šum velebnih vodopada, u parku ćete moći i planinariti, voziti se električnim brodom i vlakom, skijati, veslati… Piše: Patricia Müller 52 Foto: HTZ, NP Plitvièka jezera i Arhiva DalCase Avant ura P Jesensko radno vrijeme NP-a je od 8 do 18 sati / The National Park’s autumn working hours are from 8 am to 6 pm litvička su jezera još 1979. godine uvrštena na popis svjetske baštine UNESCO-a, i to među prvima u svijetu. Prema IUCN-u, koji definira osam kategorija zaštite prirodnih područja, Plitvička jezera pripadaju drugoj kategoriji – nacionalnih parkova, što označava zaštićeno područje pod upravom, poglavito radi zaštite ekosustava i rekreacije. Od osam nacionalnih parkova u Hrvatskoj, Plitvička jezera su najposjećenija, i to ne bez razloga! Nalaze se u zaleđu Velebita (60 km zračne udaljenosti od mora), na granici kontinentalnog i maritimnog oborinskog režima, na nadmorskoj visini od 418 do 1279 metara. Dio su dinarskoga krškog područja, koje karakterizira karbonatna geološka podloga, brojne krške forme, rijetke pojave površinskih tokova, te brojne pukotine. Obilje vode i stvaranje jezera u takvom kraju iznimna su i dragocjena pojava. Od ukupne površine Nacionalnog parka, travnjaci (livade i pašnjaci) prostiru se na površini od 6957 hektara. Park je i u pogledu bogatstva i raznolikosti flore viših biljaka svojevrstan fenomen. Na relativno maloj površini parka zabilježeno je 1267 biljnih vrsta, svrstanih u 112 porodica. Ipak, važno je istaknuti da će, ako se proces širenja travnjaka ne zaustavi, doći do osiromašenja biljnim vrstama, a to znači da će se izmijeniti izgled krajolika. Moglo bi doći i do nestanka nekih predstavnika faune (leptir plavac) koji su svoj životni ciklus vezali uz pojedine biljke. Kad je riječ o životinjskom svijetu NP-a, prva asocijacija je njegov zaštitni znak, a to je medvjed. No, bogatstvo faune ovog nacionalnog parka mnogo je veće i vrjednije od njezina najatraktivnijeg predstavnika. Česti stanovnici jezera su i dvije vrste rakova: riječni i potočni rak. Zasluženu pozornost dobila je i skupina leptira čiji se broj poznatih vrsta, prema istraživanjima, popeo do 321, od čega 76 vrsta danjih, a 245 vrsta noćnih leptira. Potočna pastrva jedan od prastanovnika ovih jezera, a danas je značajno potisnuta alohtonim populacijama klena i crvenperke. Osim navedenih, samo u jezeru Kozjak dokazano je postojanje još najmanje četiriju vrsta riba. Vodozemci su, s oko dvanaest vrsta, dosta brojna skupina kralješnjaka u parku, dok su gmazovi zastupljeni s relativno malim brojem vrsta jer duge zime i debeli snježni pokrivač smanjuju brojnost ove skupine kralješnjaka. Fauna ptica sa do sada zabilježenih 157 vrsta je na trećemu mjestu po broju vrsta među nacionalnim parkovima u Hrvatskoj. Posebno zanimljiva vrsta je vodenkos, inače rijetka ptica, ovisna o staništima čistih vodotoka. Na ovim područjima uočeno je više od 50 vrsta sisavaca: puhovi, rovke, voluharice, jež, kuna zlatica, kuna bjelica, divlja svinja i dr. Najnovijim je istraživanjima utvrđeno 20 vrsta šišmiša, koji žive u raznim staništima, rupama i pećinama, pod korom drveća, u dupljama. Posebno zanimanje često je za populacije vukova, srna, jelena, divlje mačke, risa, vidre i, naravno, smeđeg medvjeda kao krune plitvičkog životinjskog carstva. Danas je sasvim normalno da se krug prijatelja ili obitelj uputi na jednodnevni izlet u Nacionalni park Plitvička jezera, ali početak razvoja turističkih putovanja na Plitvička jezera vezan je uz kraj 19. st. i aktivnosti Društva za zaštitu i poljepšavanje Plitvičkih jezera u Hrvatskoj, osnovanog 1893. godine u Zagrebu, na inicijativu prof. dr. Gustava Janečeka. Društvo čiji su članovi bili redom pripadnici tadašnjeg znanstvenog i kulturnog kruga prvo je značajnije krenulo u formiranje turističke ponude i započelo rad na polju motiviranja dolaska posjetitelja na Plitvička jezera. U svojim pravilima Društvo prvi put u plitvički prostor uvodi planski pristup izgradnji turističke infrastrukture u želji da se ona prikažu što većem broju posjetitelja. U razdoblju od 1894. do 1896. godine Društvo gradi hotel sa 28 soba u stilu krajiških čardaka ponad jezera Kozjak, 53 Avant ura Park obiluje bogatom faunom / The park is filled with rich fauna 54 Prizori koji ostaju u sjećanju / Images that remain in your memory a za vožnju po Kozjaku nabavlja dvije lađe. Uređuju se staze, putovi i odmorišta, postavljaju putokazi i natpisi, klupe i svjetiljke. Društvo izrađuje i distribuira plakate o Plitvičkim jezerima, a u domaće i strane tiskovine uvrštava članke o njima. Brojne staze i putovi unutar prvobitnog sustava obilaska jezera prozvani su po članovima bečke carske obitelji, od kojih su mnogi, kao nadvojvoda Josip, car Franjo I. i carica Karolina Augusta, kraljevne Štefanija i Doroteja, posjetili Plitvička jezera, pa tako nastaju Dorotejin put kanjonom Donjih jezera, Štefanijin put obalom jezera Kozjak, Štefanijin otok na jezeru Kozjak, Prinčev put uz Veliku Poljanu do jezera Kozjak te Veliki brod, odnosno pristanište na Kozjaku. Bioklimatske prilike na Plitvicama tijekom godine kreću se u granicama od hladnog do ugodnog. Hladno je od početka studenoga do sredine ožujka, svježe od sredine ožujka do sredine svibnja i od sredine rujna do kraja listopada, dok je u najtoplijem dijelu godine ugodno. Stanovništvo ovog kraja se u prošlosti većinom bavilo stočarstvom, poljodjeljstvom, mlinarenjem i iskorištavanjem šume. To je uvelike određivalo način njihove prehrane i spravljanja jela. Hrana se čuvala na ognjištu u zemljanim loncima, tzv. rukačama. Kruh, kao osnovna namirnica, pravio se većinom od kukuruza, a isprva se pekao samo Rozi Hort Art ��������������������������������������������������� ����������������������������������������������������� prekriven pepelom i žarom na ognjištu. Uz kruh, pripremala se i palenta, a nije se moglo ni bez mlijeka, kiselog ili slatkog. Stanovništvo se bavilo lovom divljači (poslastica su bili puhovi) i skupljanjem šumskih plodova. U šumi su se također vrlo često brale gljive: smrčci, bukovače, pečurke. Začuđujuće rijetko, s obzirom na blizinu jezera, stanovnici su se bavili ribolovom. Većinom su pecali pastrvu u potocima Plitvica, Sartuk i Jasenica. I danas je dio toga starog ugođaja na raspolaganju posjetiteljima, kroz bogatu gastronomsku ponudu NP-a. Putnici u prolazu ovdje mogu kupiti neke od tradicionalnih specijaliteta, dok će gurmani uživati u specijalitetima i prigodnom ambijentu restorana Ličke kuće. Unutar kompleksa parka smještena su još dva restorana – Borje i Poljana, te mnogi objekti za okrjepu i odmor gostiju. Jesensko radno vrijeme NP-a je od 8 do 18 sati.

According to IUCN, which define the eight categories of protecting natural areas, Plitvice Lakes belong to the second category – national park, which stands for a protected area with a management, primarily due to the protection of the eco-system and recreation. Out of the eight national parks in Croatia, Plitvice Lakes are the most visited, and not without good reason! They are located at the bot- 56 tom of Velebit (60 km of air distance from the sea), on the borderline of the continental and the marine rainfall regime, as the altitude ranges from 418 to 1279 metres. They are a part of the Dinara karst area, which is characterized by carbonate geological surfaces, many karst forms, rear appearances by over-ground water and numerous cracks. An abundance of water and creation of lakes are an exceptional and precious emergence in an area like this. Out of the entire surface of the National Park, grass sur- Park je i u pogledu bogatstva i raznolikosti flore svojevrstan fenomen / The park is also a sort of a phenomenon when it comes to the richness and diversity of the flora faces (meadows and pastures) spread across 6957 hectares. The park is also a sort of a phenomenon when it comes to the richness and diversity of the flora of higher plants. Across the relatively small surface of the park, you can find 1267 plant species, divided into 112 groups. We still must point out that, unless the process of expanding grass surfaces comes to an end, many plant species may cease existing, which means that the way the scenery looks would change. Some of the fauna representatives could also disappear (lycaenid butterfly), as their life cycle is attached to certain plants. When it comes to the animal world of the National Park, the first thing that comes to mind is its trademark, and that is the bear. However, the richness of this national park’s fauna is much greater and more valuable than merely its most attractive representative. Two types of crabs are also common inhabitants of the lake: river crab and stream crab. A lot of deserved attention also goes to the group of butterflies, as researches say that the number of their familiar species has climbed up to 321, 76 of which come out during the day, and 245 during the night. The rainbow trout is one of the ancient inhabitants of these lakes, and now it is significantly pushed back by allochthonous populations of chubs and rudds. Besides the aforementioned species, it’s been proven that just Lake Kozjak features at least four more fish species. Amphibians are, with about twelve species, a pretty well represented group of vertebrates in the park, while reptiles are represented by a relatively small number of species because the long winters and lots of snow reduce the presence of this group of vertebrates. The fauna of birds, with 157 species that have been registered so far, climbs up to third place in the number of species in national parks in Croatia. The especially interesting representative is the water blackbird, which is a pretty rare bird that is dependent on clear-water habitats. Over 50 groups of mammals have been noticed in this area: dormouse, shrew, vole, hedgehog, pine marten, beech marten, wild boar etc. The newest researches confirmed that about 20 types of bats live in various habitats, such as holes and caves, or under the tree bark or in pits. Special interest is often reserved for the populations of wolves, deer, bucks, wild cats, lynxes, otters, and naturally, the brown bear as the crown of the animal empire in Plitvice. It’s perfectly normal these days for a group of friends or a family to head for a one-day picnic to the Plitvice Lakes National Park, but the beginning of developing tourism options at Plitvice Lakes came near the end of the 19th century thanks to activities by the Association for Protecting and Embellishing the Plitvice Lakes in Croatia, which was founded in 1893 in Zagreb at the initiative of prof. Dr. Gustav Janeček. The Association, with members that primarily belonged to the scientific and cultural circle of that era, was the first to make significant steps towards forming a tourism offering, as they started working at motivating the visitors to come to Plitvice Lakes. Within their rules, the Association was the first to introduce planned approach towards building the tourism infrastructure, all with the purpose of drawing as many visitors as possible. In the period between 1894 and 1896, the Association built a 28-room hotel similar to borderline blockhouses beneath Lake Kozjak, and two boats were acquired for riding around Kozjak. Pathways, routes and resting points were organized, while signposts, signboards, benches and lamps were placed. The Association made and distributed posters about Plitvice Lakes, and also inserted articles about them in local and foreign newspapers. Numerous pathways and routes within the original system of the tour around the lakes were named after the members of the imperial family in Vienna, and many of them, like Archduke Joseph, Emperor Frank I., Empress Carolina Augusta and princesses Stephanie and Dorothea, have visited Plitvice Lakes. That was the origin of Dorothea’s Path alongside the canyon of the Lower Lakes, Stephanie’s Path along the coast of Lake Kozjak, Stephanie’s Island at Lake Kozjak, Prince’s Path alongside Velika Poljana up until Lake Kozjak, and Veliki Brod (“Big Ship”), which is a birth at Kozjak. Bio-climactic circumstances at Plitvice range from cold 57 Foto: Marijo Bandiæ / HTZ Bioklimatske prilike na Plitvicama tijekom godine kreću se u granicama od hladnog do ugodnog / Bio-climactic circumstances at Plitvice range from cold to pleasant during the year to pleasant during the year. It’s cold from early November to mid-March, fresh from mid-March to mid-May and from mid-September to late October, and it’s merely pleasant during the warmest part of the year. This area’s population used to make ends meet thanks to cattle breeding, agriculture, flour milling and forest exploitation. That very much determined the way they fed themselves and prepared their meals. The food was saved in clay pots (the natives called them “rukaca”) near the fireplace. Bread, as the primary ingredient, was mostly made from corn, and it was originally baked merely covered in ashes and ember at the fireplace. Along with bread, polenta was also prepared, and you also had to have milk, whether it was sweet or sour. The people mostly went game hunting (dormice were a delicacy) and they collected wild berries. Mushrooms were also picked in the forest: morels, beech sticks and field mushrooms. Considering the near-by lakes, it’s surprising how rarely the locals went fishing. They mostly went fishing for trout in streams Plitvica, Sartuk and Jasenica. There is still a part of that old ambience that is available Foto: Juraj Kopaè / HTZ Popularnosti Parka pridonosi i uporaba specijalnih vozila za prijevoz posjetitelja / The park’s popularity is also credited to the usage of special vehicles for transporting visitors to today’s visitors through the rich gastronomic offering of the National Park. The passengers, who are just passing by, can buy some of the traditional specialities, while the ones with acquired taste can enjoy the specialities and the appropriate ambience of restaurant Lička Kuća (“Lika House”). There are two more restaurants located within the complex of the park – Borje and Poljana, as well as many objects for the visitors’ refreshment and rest. The National Park’s autumn working hours are from 8 am to 6 pm. And for those who want to spend more than one day here, you have hotels Jezero, Plitvice, Bellevue and Grabovac at your disposal. One more important element of the park’s accommodation offering is camp Korana, which is located on the plateau beneath river Korana’s canyon. Whether you’re brought to this mountainous area by the desire for some delicacies or for a stroll in the fresh air along the sound of colossal waterfalls, the park will give you the opportunity to do some hiking, riding in an electric boat or train, skiing, rowing… 59 Gast ro PLATO - NOVA MEKA ZAGREBAČKE GASTROSCENE Od predjela do clubbinga Ono što je od početka bila orijentacija ovoga prestižnoga zagrebačkog lokala jest njegov demokratičan pristup: nije ovo mjesto na kojem će jedino moći uživati eksperimentatori i elita, nego i svi ostali željni dobrog obroka s kvalitetnim sastojcima, s odličnom i školovanom uslugom, umjerenim cijenama, a u vrhunski uređenom ambijentu koji jednako dobro priziva uživanje u hrani i dobru zabavu Piše: Hela Biliæ G Foto: Kristina Faziniæ lobetrotteri dobra ukusa već odavno znaju da je na svjetskoj gastronomskoj sceni posljednjih godina, hit kuhinja japansko-peruanskoga chefa Nobua Matsuhise koji je proslavio fusion Istoka i Zapada “u loncu”, spajajući na vješt i maštovit način dotad (činilo se) nespojivo. “Nobu” je danas sinonim za lanac vrhunskih fusion restorana na najpoželjnijim svjetskim destinacijama – od New Yorka do Los Angelesa, od Tokija do Melbournea – koji nude malo drukčiji, reklo bi se, holistički pristup hrani. A poznavatelji domaće gastroscene ovakva su kulinarska nagnuća prepoznali u meniju klub-restorana Plato u zagrebačkom Kaptol centru. Plato se u samo pola godine od otvaranja prometnuo u novu meku za tan- 60 koćutna nepca, a njegov meni već je opravdano opjevan u mnogim gastro kritikama. No, ono što je od početka bila orijentacija prestižnoga zagrebačkog lokala jest njegov demokratičan pristup: nije ovo mjesto na kojem će jedino moći uživati eksperimentatori, nego i svi ostali željni dobrog obroka s kvalitetnim sastojcima, s odličnom i školovanom uslugom – što je, nažalost, tako rijetka pojava i u tendencioznim hrvatskim restoranima – umjerenim cijenama, a u nadasve vrhunski uređenom ambijentu koji jednako dobro priziva uživanje u hrani i dobru zabavu. Interijer s veličanstvenom terasom koja gleda na gornjogradske prežuljke, prvi je adut Platoa: raskošni, ali neopterećujući, iznimno udoban i prozračan prostor u Vrhunski uređen interijer / Supremely decorated interior svijetlim tonovima doista dobro funkcionira i kao mjesto brzoga poslovnog ručka, i kao odabir sadržajnog večernjeg izlaska. Uostalom, takav je i odabir menadžmenta lokala, koji Plato vidi u konceptu “dining and clubbing”, sve popularnijem kod nas. Priča o “diningu” doista je prilagođena i zahtjevnijim gostima i onima koji više cijene konvencionalniji jelovnik. Tako u jesenskoj ponudi Platoa, predstavljenoj početkom prošloga mjeseca, ravnopravno stoluju tuna tataki, proljetne rolice sa slatko-kiselim umakom, piletina na štapiću s kikirikijem, pačja prsa s miso umakom, razni wokovi, ali i janjeći kotleti, tatarski biftek, neke zanimljive talijanske paste i steak sa slanim krumpirom. A kako se meni prilagodio prevladavajućem ukusu zagrebačke publike, ne forsirajući snobizam i ne nasilno “preodgajajući” ljubitelje dobre hrane, tako je i raspon cijena prilagođen najvećem dijelu potencijalnih gostiju, pri čemu se posebno cilja na mlađe zaposlene ljude kojima je, osim večere, često na pameti i ono “poslije” večere. Cijene su u Platou doista fer, s predjelima i malim toplim jelima čija cijena ne prelazi pedesetak kuna, dok za najskuplje jelo na meniju nećete morati izdvojiti više od stotinjak kuna. Biti “nježan” na džepu, ali zanimljiv i konkurentan Flosova Zeppelin lampa upotpunjuje prostor / The Zeppelin lamp by Flos completes the room u ponudi, Platoov je recept koji od otvaranja donosi odlične rezultate. Na koncu, element “clubbinga” od jeseni je obogaćen izvrsnim novim programom. Srijeda, kao jedan od “gluhih” dana u tjednu za zabavnu ponudu metropole, inauguriran je u Platou kao “Wednesday Live Clubbing”. Svake srijede od 24. listopada u Platou uživo nastupaju naša najpoznatija estradna imena, uz živu svirku na klaviru i gitari. Program je, prema riječima voditelja klub-restorana, zamišljen kao nekoliko setova, u početku laganijih pa sve bržih, kako bi gosti mogli uz večeru, svijeće i razgovor poslušati poznate hitove stranih i domaćih izvodača i uživati u atmosferi kluba. U Platou tako tijekom jeseni i zime srijedom možete naletjeti na nastupe Natali Dizdar, Divasica, Jacquesa Houdeka i Ivane Kindl, Massima, Vanne, Tonija Cetinskog... Uz ovaj novitet, Plato će svake subote ugostiti i svojevrsni after party televizijskog showa “Ples sa zvijezdama”, uz gostovanje ekipe plesača, a tijekom ovoga mjeseca najavljena je i “grčka večer” uz grčku glazbu, dodatna ponuda u meniju i mnoštvo drugih zanimljivih detalja. Valja očekivati da je sve ovo samo početak jednoga divnog prijateljstva između zahtjevne zagrebačke publike i ozbiljnog i ambicioznog zagrebačkog lokala. 61 Gast ro Iznimno udoban i prozračan prostor u svijetlim tonovima / An extremely comfortable and ethereal light-toned space PLATO - THE NEW MECCA OF THE GASTRO-SCENE IN ZAGREB From Appetizers to Clubbing The one thing that always served as the orientation of this prestigious Zagreb establishment is its democratic approach: this is not exclusively the place for lovers of experiments or for the elite, but also for everyone else that wants a good meal with quality ingredients, excellent and educated service, moderate prices and a supremely decorated ambience that equally stands for enjoying the food and having a good time Written by: Hela Biliæ G Photo: Kristina Faziniæ lobetrotters with good taste have long been aware that, over the last few years, the new hit on the gastronomic scene of the world has been the cuisine of Japanese-Peruvian chef Nobu Matsuhisa, who became famous due to his “pot fusion” of the East and the West that combined what appeared to be incompatible in a skilful and imaginative way. “Nobu” now stands as synonymous for a chain of top-notch fusion restaurants at the most desirable destinations of the world – from New York to Los Angeles, from Tokyo to Melbourne – which offer a slightly different, one could even say holistic, approach to food. And as far as the followers of the local gastro-scene, they 62 recognized these types of culinary leanings in the menu of club-restaurant Plato at the Kaptol Centre in Zagreb. In merely half a year since it opened, Plato has established itself as the new “mecca” for delicate palates with menu, that has already been rightfully worshiped in many gastro-critics. However, the one thing that always served as the orientation of this prestigious Zagreb establishment is its democratic approach: this is not exclusively the place for lovers of experiments, but also for everyone else that wants a good meal with quality ingredients, excellent and educated service – which is, unfortunately, such a rare feature in tendentious Croatian restaurants – moderate prices and a supremely decorated ambience that Prevladava bijela boja / The white colour is dominant Cijene u Platou su umjerene / Prices at Plato are moderate equally stands for enjoying the food and having a good time. The interior, featuring a magnificent terrace that overlooks the upper-town hills, is the first ace up Plato’s sleeve: both luxurious and unburdening, this extremely comfortable and ethereal light-toned space truly works equally well as a place for a quick business lunch and as a choice for an eventful evening out. After all, that was a conscious choice of the restaurant’s management, as they see Plato within the “dining and clubbing” concept that’s gaining more and more popularity in our country. The “dining” part is truly equally adjusted to the more demanding customers and to the ones who rather appreciate a more conventional menu. The Plato autumn menu, presented at the beginning of last month, equally features tataki tunas, little spring rolls with sweet-sour gravy, chicken on a stick with peanuts, duck breast with miso sauce, various woks, but also lamb chops, beef tartar, some interesting Italian pastas and steak with salty potatoes. And along with the fact that the menu is adjusted to the dominant tendencies of the Zagreb audience, without feeling the need to impose snobbery and forcefully “re-educate” the lovers of good food, the range of prices is also adjusted to the largest section of potential customers, and the special target group is younger busy people who, besides dinner, often have what’s coming “after” dinner on their minds. The prices at Plato are really fair, featuring appetizers and smaller warm meals that cost up to fifty kunas, while the most expensive meal on the menu won’t release you of more Jelovnik je osmislio Stephano Macchi / The menu was designed by Stephano Macchi than about hundred kunas. Being “gentle” on the pocket, but also being interesting and competitive in its offering, is the Plato recipe that has excellent results ever since the opening. And finally, the “clubbing” element has been improved with an excellent new entertainment programme since autumn began. Wednesday, as usually one of the “deaf” days of the week when it comes to the capital’s partying options, has been introduced as the night of Plato’s “Wednesday Night Clubbing”. Every Wednesday since October 24th, Plato is set to host our most famous singers as they perform alongside live music with pianos and guitars. According to the club-restaurant’s manager, the programme is designed as several sets that evolve from slower to faster, so that the guests could enjoy their dinner, candlelight and conversation and still listen to famous hits from foreign and local performers, as well as enjoy the atmosphere of the club. During this autumn and winter, Plato will be the host for performances by Natali Dizdar, Divas, Jacques Houdek, Ivana Kindl, Massimo, Vanna, Toni Cetinski… Alongside this novelty, Plato will spend every Saturday hosting an after-party for a TV show “Dancing with the Stars” with the dancing teams present, and it’s been announced that this month will be the start of the “Greek nights” with Greek music, extra-options in the menu and many other interesting details. It should be expected that this is just the beginning of a wonderful friendship between the demanding Zagreb audience and this serious and ambitious Zagreb establishment. 63 Fine st vari Omegin gospodar brzine Robustan, racionalan i hrabar, baš kakav mora biti na ruci pravog muškarca, kultni sat iz Omege zove se Speedmaster i ima brojne funkcije, jednako potrebne poslovnim ljudima i avanturistima, a i povijest s kojom se Omega jedina može pohvaliti – kao službeni sat NASA-e, jedini je bio na Mjesecu. Pa, iako možda nije Sanaderova “klasa”, ovaj sat će puno toga objasniti o vama, posebno pripadnicama ljepšega spola koje trebaju donijeti brze zaključke. Stolica za tinejdžere Pokoja noga previše, obično-neobičan izgled i evo stolice za ljuljanje za 21. stoljeće, s jednako neobičnim imenom Ku-dir-ka. Iz radionice Contraforma dolazi ova tako jednostavna ideja (ali netko je se ipak trebao sjetiti prvi). Princip je očit: očekujete običnu stabilnu stolicu, ali noge “viška” vam dopuštaju i nagib... Idealno za tinejdžere u školskim klupama. Omega’s Master of Speed Robust, rational and courageous, which is exactly how it should look on a hand of a real man, the legendary watch from Omega is called Speedmaster and it has numerous functions, which are just as necessary to businessmen and adventure lovers, and it also carries a history that only Omega can boast with – as the official NASA watch, it’s the only one that has been on the Moon. So even though it’s not exactly in Sanader’s league, this watch will explain an awful lot about you, especially to ladies that need to draw some fast conclusions. A Chair for Teenagers A leg or two too many, the ordinary/bizarre look, and you got yourself a rocking chair for the 21st century, carrying an equally unusual name Ku-dir-ka. An idea this simple comes from the Contraform workshop (but somebody had to come up with it first). It’s an obvious principle: you expect an ordinary stable chair, but thanks to those extra-legs, you can also do some tilting… Ideal for teenagers sitting in school. Ponosni na mp3 Bilo bi krajnje nepravedno nazvati BeoSound 6 običnim – mp3 playerom. U eri kad svaka šuša proizvodi mp3 playere, Bang&Olufsenova uzdanica jednostavno mora ponijeti neku laskaviju titulu. Zbog fantastičnog dizajna, inovativnih performansi, materijala izrade – poliranog nehrđajućeg čelika, stakla otpornog na udarce, gume... BeoSound 6 jedna je od onih tehnikalija koju nema smisla držati u torbi ili džepu. Pokažite što imate! 64 Proud of Mp3 It would be extremely unfair to say that BeoSound 6 is an ordinary – mp3 player. In an era when any oaf can produce an mp3 player, Bang&Olufsen’s product simply must carry a more flattering title. Due to its fantastic design, innovative performances, production material – polished stainless steel, glass resistant to blows, rubber… BeoSound 6 is one of those technical devices that don’t deserve to be held within a purse or a pocket. Show them what you got! “Steam” - estetika gole funkcije Zadržavanje energije u njezinoj esencijalnoj formi bila je ideja dizajnerice Rikke Hagen kad je kreirala svoju stolnu svjetiljku “Steam”. Osnovni oblik svjetiljke je zadržan, ali pročišćen od svih nepotrebnih detalja, dok je ono što osposobljava svjetiljku za rad, a inače se na sve načine pokušava prikriti – kabel – ovdje sastavni dio dizajna. Obojen u hrabru tirkiznu boju, proviruje ispod sivkaste prozirne baze i ostavlja promatrača u iznenađenju. Svjetiljku proizvodi Holmegaard Glassworks, tvrtka s dugogodišnjom tradicijom u ručnom puhanju stakla.. Gastrogurui iz Liebherra Hladnjaci su nam sve veći i veći (a u skladu s time i opseg struka). No, ovo Liebherrovo čudo stvoreno je za “fajnšmekere”, a ne ljubitelje junk fooda. Gotovo četvrtina je posvećena vinu – s više temperaturnih zona, uz ostakljena vrata i drvene police koje su jedini pristojan način držanja dobre kapljice. No, i ostatak hladnjaka pruža vrhunski estetski i kvalitativni doživljaj – od inoks obloge do ledomata, od LED rasvjete do BioFresh odjeljka koji jamči očuvanje namirnica tri puta dulje od do sada uvriježenog. Woofy u borbi protiv kabela Woofy je vaš najnoviji (možda i najdraži?) kućni ljubimac, tvrde u danskoj tvrtki Normann koja proizvodi ovo neobično kućno pomagalo. Ne morate ga hraniti, šetati ili maziti, samo ponekad obrisati prašinu s njega, a on vam zauzvrat pomaže skrivajući jednu od najmržih pojava u modernom domu – klupko kabela. Pa recite da pas nije čovjekov najbolji prijatelj... Luxuries “Steam” - Aesthetics of Pure Function Maintaining energy in its essential form was the designer Rikka Hagen’s idea when she created her table lamp “Steam”. The primary shape of the lamp wasn’t changed, but it got purified from all the unnecessary details, while the thing that enables the lamp to work and is usually being hidden in every possible way – the cable – makes for an integral part of the design. Coloured in bold turquoise, it glimpses underneath the greyish see-through base and it leaves the observer in the state of surprise. The lamps are manufactured by Holmegaard Glassworks, a company with many years of tradition in manual glass blowing. Gastro-Gurus from Liebherr Our refrigerators keep getting bigger and bigger (which has the same effect on our waistlines). However, this miracle by Liebherr is created for “mods”, not some “junk food” lovers. Almost a quarter of it is dedicated to wine – featuring several temperature zones, with glass doors and wooden shelves that are the only decent way to keep a good bottle of wine. But still, the rest of the fridge also provides a superb aesthetical and qualitative experience – from inox coverings to the ice machine, from LOD lighting to BioFresh departments that guarantee conservation of your groceries to last three times as long as up until now. Woofy Battling Cables Woofy is your newest (maybe even favourite?) pet, according to the Danish company Normann that produces this unusu- al house appliance. You don’t have to feed it, walk it or cuddle with it; merely dust it once in a while and it will show its appreciation by helping you hide one of the most hated appearances in a modern home – a bunch of cables.

Prepoznatljiv je po svojim platnima velikih dimenzija na kojima je uvijek prisutan ljudski lik. Na njima prikazuje motive djetinjstva, na neki način pomaknute, neobične prizore koji pomalo evociraju sjećanje na san ili su dio neke velike, univerzalne priče, golemog arhiva djelomično zaboravljenih slika, malo stvarnih, malo nestvarnih. Narativnost i neprijeteća, ali impresivna monumentalnost kompozicija, epičnost koja se provlači kroz prizore i priziva nastavak priče, upečatljivost i snaga 68 Vehabovićevih slika, učinili su ga jednim od najperspektivnijih mladih umjetnika, čije vrijeme tek dolazi. “Htio sam da slike budu prožete različitim sjećanjima. Ako su postale vizualno atraktivne, to nije stoga što prikazuju neko određeno mjesto, neki konkretni krajolik. Dok ih gledam, evociram slike u pokretu, kao u nekom filmu: taj pokret je pokret koji dolazi iz sjećanja i može se najbolje opisati idejom Jorgea Luisa Borgesa da sva umjetnost stremi glazbi. One istodobno prikazuju, pričaju, apstrahiraju, prizivajući različite elemente iz povijesti umjetnosti i stvarnosti.” Njegova velika platna sastavljena su od nekoliko manjih, iz jednostavnog razloga što želi raditi na velikim površinama, a u njegov je atelje, u zagrebačkoj Mesničkoj ulici, koji dijeli s još nekoliko kolega, nemoguće “Broj 9”, prva slika ciklusa “Sjever” / “Number 9”, first painthing od the “North” cycle unijeti platno velikog formata. Jedan od prepoznatljivih elemenata koji tvore izvorni Vehabovićev stil jest i pješčana podloga platna koja mu daje taktilne kvalitete. Kreativni impuls, riječima samog umjetnika, dolazi iz igre. Uz brojne grupne izložbe na kojima je sudjelovao, Zlatan Vehabović predstavio se domaćoj javnosti i samostalno, na dvije izložbe ključne za sagledavanje njegova rada u cjelini. Radi se o izložbama “6 kilometara” u Galeriji SC-a u Zagrebu 2006., te “Sjever” u velikogoričkoj galeriji “Galženica” prošloga proljeća. Već u okviru “6 kilometara”, predstavljen je cjelovit, tematski i tehnički zaokružen ciklus. Riječima samog umjetnika, platna su nastanjena figurama postavljenim u određene odnose, a mogle su se povezati sa slikama svakodnevice ili, pak, arhivom slika iz povijesti umjetnosti. U novijem ciklusu slika “Sjever”, izazov umjetniku, kako sam navodi, bio je daljnje “pokretanje unutarnjeg svijeta” promatrača odabirom motiva i protagonista uz opetovanu želju za pokretanjem lavine individualnih filmova. “Prvi slikar sadržava već u sebi sve slikare koji će se pojaviti nakon njega”, riječi su Lovre Artukovića, jednog od najcjenjenijih suvremenih slikara, te “ovisi o posebnom isječku vremena i o slikarevoj sposobnosti što će se materijalizirati u slici.” Čini se da je Vehabović, sa svojih dvadeset i pet godina, već stekao svijest o slikarstvu kao sebi imanentnom svojstvu, nečemu što oduvijek posjeduje te ga, stoga, bez prestanka razvija i transformira u jedinstveni, samo njemu svojstven izraz. Hrvatska je suvremena umjetnička scena još uvijek pri- lično izolirana pa je doseg Vehabovićeva djela, kao i mnogih drugih njegovih kolega umjetnika, ograničen, kako geografski, tako i prema stupnju do kojeg ga javnost uopće može percipirati, s obzirom na status koji umjetnost, pogotovo ona suvremena, ima ovdje i sada. S druge strane, Vehabović je jedan od onih umjetnika čiji su radovi idealni za kolekcionarske zbirke i čiji rad, vjerojatno sasvim nesvjesno, prati svjetske umjetničke trendove. On radi u tradicionalnome mediju – slikarstvu, a njegovo slikarstvo ne može se lako usporediti s nečim već viđenim, autentično je i odiše svježinom, mistikom, koliko i suverenim vladanjem tehnikom. “Ono je poetično i, u najboljoj tradiciji popularne glazbe, eskapistično.” Kada govorimo o svjetskim trendovima, još otkada je početkom 2005. godine kontroverzni britanski kolekcionar i mecena suvremene umjetnosti Charles Saatchi, u svojoj londonskoj galeriji, najavio novi postav i pod egidom “Trijumf slikarstva” izložio “najvažnije predstavnike europskog slikarstva današnjice”, polemike i kustoske postavke sličnog tipa ne izlaze iz mode. “Novo figurativno slikarstvo” je konstantno na cijeni. Taj je trend prisutan i kod nas. Naime, osim nekoliko velikih izložbi koje su tematizirale “slikarstvo sada”, pokušavajući radovima umjetnika različitih generacija dokazati njegovu vitalnost, slikarstvo nisu zaobilazile ni najvrjednije nagrade za mlade umjetnike koje se dodjeljuju kod nas. Zlatan Vehabović tako je 2005. dobio nagradu Hrvatske gospodarske komore, a 2006. nagradu 69 Slika “Moj dom je nigdje bez tebe” / Painting “My home is Nowehere without you” Akademije likovnih umjetnosti za najuspješniji diplomski rad. Iste je godine dobio i prvu nagradu na natječaju Erste banke (Novi fragmenti 3), a 2007. drugu nagradu na natječaju za najbolje mlade umjetnike srednje i jugoistočne Europe uglednog austrijskog muzeja Essl. Sakupljanje umjetničkih djela kao poslovni potez, razvijanje svijesti velikih tvrtki o stvaranju pozitivnog imidža posredstvom suvremene umjetnosti, trend je prisutan više od dvadeset godina na zapadu, a kod nas postoji u tragovima. Erste banka jedna je od prvih tvrtki u Hrvatskoj koja je usvojila takav način razmišljanja i osim publiciteta koji dobiva organiziranjem izložbi nagrađenih radova, njezini radni prostori oplemenjeni su umjetničkim radovima, koji zasigurno ne prolaze neprimijećeno te nailaze na uvažavanje zaposlenika, dijela javnosti i poslovnih partnera. Tu je još, svakako, i tvrtka “Filip Trade”, čiji vlasnik Tomislav Kličko posjeduje 70 jednu od najvećih i najcjenjenijih kolekcija hrvatske suvremene umjetnosti, koja je više puta bila izlagana. Taj poduzenik i zaljubljenik u suvremenu umjetnost iskoristio je trenutak slabije potražnje za djelima suvremenih autora te povoljno kupio recentne radove jer je njihovu vrijednost prepoznao prije ostalih i tako pridonio kvaliteti svoje zbirke. Kličkova zbirka nije pohranjena u depoima, već se nalazi u novoj zgradi “Filip Tradea” na zagrebačkoj Savici, te čini dio djelatnog okruženja, dekor poslovnog prostora tvrtke koja, upravo iz razloga “umjetničke osviještenosti svoga vlasnika”, kod nas predstavlja svojevrsni sinonim prestiža. Zlatan Vehabović u kratkom je vremenu iskočio kao jedna od najzanimljivijih autorskih ličnosti mlađe generacije slikara i njegovo ime zasigurno treba zapamtiti, budući da je njegove radove ionako teško zaboraviti. “Broj 11” / “Number 11” ZLATAN VEHABOVIÆ A Painter from “A Brand New Film” “Zlatan Vehabović’s painting isn’t a movie, it doesn’t take place within a period of time, it doesn’t contain sound or possess a story – it rather features a somewhat ambiguous atmosphere that hints at something that could be a story.” Written by: Nataša Bodrožiæ Z latan Vehabović is a young painter born in 1982 who is currently a post-graduate at the Academy of Fine Arts in Zagreb, and he has won numerous prestigious awards while also being portrayed by the critics as one of the most interesting painters to emerge over the last several years. He is recognizable for his large-sized canvases that always feature a human figure. He displays motifs of childhood, somewhat removed, unusual images that slightly evoke memories of a dream or are a part of a bigger universal story, a huge archive of partly forgotten images, which are sometimes real and sometimes false. The narrative aspect and the non-threatening, but still impressive grandeur of the compositions, the epic strength that wriggles through the images and calls upon the continuation of the story, as well as the sheer distinction and power of Vehabović’s paintings, have made him one of the most promising young artists, whose time is yet to arrive. “I wanted to have the paintings dyed in different memories. If they ended up being visually attractive, it’s not because they display a certain location or a specific 71 “Broj 10”, djeca koja se igraju među spomenicima / “Number 10”, children playing between monuments landscape. While I look at them, I evoke moving images, just like in some movie: that movement comes from the memories and can best be described with an idea by Jorge Luis Borges that all shapes of art aspire towards music. They simultaneously display, talk and abstract, while recalling different elements from art history and reality.” His large canvases consist of several smaller ones, simply because he wants to work on big surfaces, and it’s impossible to bring in a large-sized canvas to his atelier, which he shares with several other colleagues in Mesnička Street in Zagreb. One of the recognizable elements that create the original Vehabović’s style is also the sand surface of the canvas, as that delivers the tactile quality to it. Creative impulse, in words of the artist himself, comes from playing around. Along with the numerous collective exhibits in which he has participated, Zlatan Vehabović also presented himself to the local public in solo manner by throwing two exhibits that are crucial for the overall evaluation of his work. Those are the “6 Kilometres” exhibit at the Student Centre Gallery in Zagreb in 2006, and “North” at the “Galženica” gallery in Velika Gorica last spring. Already within “6 Kilometres”, he presented his complete thematically and technically rounded cycle. In the words of the artist himself, the canvases were inhabited with figures that are positioned in certain relations, and they could be connected with the every-day images or with the archive of images from the history of 72 art. In his newer painting cycle called “North”, the artist was challenged, as he says himself, by further “turning the observer’s inner world into motion” by choosing the motifs and protagonists with the repeated desire to start the avalanche of individual films. “True painter already encompasses in himself all those painters that will come after him”, said Lovro Artuković, one of the most appreciated contemporary painters, and he also said that “what materializes within a painting depends on that special clip of time as much as on the painter’s ability.” It seems that Vehabović, at his age of 25, has already gained awareness on painting as a characteristic that is immanent to him, as something that he has always possessed and something that he constantly develops and transforms into this unique expression that could only belong to him. The Croatian contemporary art scene is still very much isolated, which makes the reach of Vehabović’s work, as well as many of his other art colleagues, to be pretty limited both geographically and regarding the degree of the public taking notice of him, and that is connected with the status that art, especially contemporary art, has right here and now. On the other hand, Vehabović is one of those artists with works that are ideal for collectors and who, probably completely unconsciously, follows the artistic trends of the world. He works in a traditional medium – painting, yet his painting can hardly be compared with something you’ve seen before, as it is authentic and filled “Broj 8”, posljednja slika ciklusa “6 kilometara” / “Number 8”, last painting from the “6 kilometers” cycle with freshness, mystique, as well as a firm stranglehold on technique. “It is poetic and, in the best tradition of popular music, filled with escapism.” When we’re talking about the trends of the world, ever since early 2005, when controversial British collector and patron of contemporary art Charles Saatchi announced a new display in his London gallery and exhibited “the most important representors of today’s European painting” under the “Triumph of Painting” slogan, discussions and custodian exhibits of similar style bring nothing but success. “New figurative painting” is constantly respected. That trend is present at our scene as well. Therefore, besides several large exhibits that had the “today’s painting” theme and that tried to prove its vitality by displaying paintings by artists from different generations, some of our most valuable awards for young artists also couldn’t find their way to avoid painting. Zlatan Vehabović won the 2005 award by the Croatian Chamber of Economics, as well as the 2006 award by the Academy of Fine Arts for his graduation thesis. That same year also brought him the first prize at the Erste Bank’s contest (New Fragments 3), and he received the second prize at the contest for best young artists from Central and Southeastern Europe from the respected Austrian museum Essl in 2007. Collecting works of art as a business move and large companies developing awareness on creating a positive image by using contemporary art – that is a trend that has existed for over twenty years in the West, and there are barely any traces of it in our country. Erste Bank is one of the first companies in Croatia that accepted that way of thinking and, besides the publicity they receive by organizing exhibits featuring awarded pieces of work, their company chambers are ennobled with works of art, and that definitely doesn’t go by unnoticed and is widely appreciated by employees, sections of the public and their business partners. We also must mention “Filip Trade”, as its owner Tomislav Kličko possesses one of the biggest and most respected collections of Croatian contemporary art, which has been exhibited on numerous occasions. This businessman and lover of contemporary art has taken advantage of a period where the demand for works of contemporary authors was rather weak to buy many recent works at a good price, all due to him recognizing their value before anyone else, and now the quality of his collection is much higher. Kličko’s collection isn’t stored in depots, but it is located in the new “Filip Trade” building at Savica in Zagreb, where it makes for a part of the working environment as a décor in the business spaces of the firm that, because of the “artistic awareness of its owner”, is now synonymous to prestige in this area. Zlatan Vehabović needed little time to establish himself as one of the most interesting authors and personalities of the younger generation of painters, and his name is definitely one to remember, but then again, his works are quite difficult to forget anyway. 73 Interijeri Hotel Kruisheren sretan je spoj drevne povijesti i modernog luksuza Gotièka rapsodija u Maastrichtu Vanjski se izgled nekadašnje crkve i samostana morao poštovati, no to nije spriječilo arhitekta Henka Vosa i dizajnera Inga Maurera da se poigraju s interpretacijom originala. Tako je Maurer zaslužan za svjetlosne instalacije koje dodatno naglašavaju ljepotu građevina. Posebno je to vidljivo u radu na atriju koji, zahvaljujući Maurerovu geniju, izgleda kao “filmski” spoj visokobudžetnog SF-a i gotičkog horora 74 Ostakljeno dizalo povezuje prostor crkve i samostana / The church and the monastery are connected by a glass elevator Svjetlosne instalacije dodatno pojačavaju dojam mističnosti i naglašavaju ljepotu gotičke zgrade / Lighting installations that further increase the mystical impression and emphasize the beauty of the gothic building Piše: Helena Pajiæ N Ingo Maurer zaslužan je za kompletne svjetlosne instalacije / Ingo Maurer gets the credit for complete lighting installations Foto: Luc Boegly; www.designhotels.com a prvi pogled, filmska obitelj Addams mogla bi se, na proputovanju kroz Maastricht, ovdje sasvim dobro snaći: elegantno gotičko zdanje – nekadašnja crkva i samostan iz 15. stoljeća – svojom dostojanstvenom arhitekturom ulijeva strahopoštovanje, možda i malo nelagode. No, dojam traje vrlo kratko, tek dok se ne zaviri iza ove fantastične povijesne kulise pretvorene u ekskluzivnu turističku adresu. Hotel Kruisheren doista je nesvakidašnji spoj prošlosti i sadašnjosti, a protutežu gotici čini hipermoderna unutrašnjost koju ispunjava najbolji dizajn sadašnjice. Ma- hom nizozemski, naravno, jer ipak je riječ o jednome od najboljih nizozemskih hotela. Maastricht je poznat po svojim povijesnim spomenicima, kulturnim znamenitostima, inovativnoj arhitekturi i dizajnu. Sretan spoj svega toga dogodio se u središtu grada, na pitoresknome trgu Kommelplein, gdje je smješten kompleks zgrada, nekada sakralni objekt koji je početkom dvadesetog stoljeća bio na rubu raspadanja. Nakon obnove, zgrade crkve i samostana koristio je Nacionalni poljoprivredni institut, a onda su početkom osamdesetih ponovno napuštene i prepu- 75 Interijeri Henk Vos zaslužan je za potpuno individualiziran izgled svake sobe i apartmana / Henk Vos also deserves the praise for the completely individualized look of every room and apartment Originalni samostanski vitraj u kojemu mogu uživati samo gosti u sobi 209 / 76 Protutežu gotici čini hipermoderna unutrašnjost / The gothic aspect is counterbalanced by the hypermodern interior štene zaboravu. Camille Oostwegel ime je organizacije koja je početkom dvijetisućitih konačno spasila ovo veličanstveno zdanje. Specijalizirana za renoviranje povijesnih zgrada, zaklada-tvrtka ima u vlasništvu brojne dvorce i druge spomenike, odreda pretvorene u luksuzne hotele, a upravo je takva namjena zamišljena i za maastrišku zaboravljenu ljepoticu. Vanjski se izgled morao poštovati do kraja, no to nije spriječilo arhitekta Henka Vosa i dizajnera Inga Maurera da se poigraju s interpretacijom originala. Tako je Maurer zaslužan za kompletne svjetlosne instalacije, koje dodatno pojačavaju dojam mističnosti i naglašavaju ljepotu gotičke zgrade (posebno je to vidljivo u radu na atriju koji, zahvaljujući Maurerovu geniju, izgleda kao “filmski” spoj visokobudžetnog SF-a i gotičkog horora). Njemački dizajner potpisuje i sam ulaz u predvorje koje je pretvorio u svojevrsni tunel iznutra obložen bakrom, te rasvjetu nekadašnje kapelice koja predstavlja zajedničke prostore hotela. Za opsežan plan renoviranja i unutrašnjeg uređenja bila je zadužena tvrtka “Satijn plus architects”, a većinu kreativnog rada odradio je Henk Vos: uz postojeću crkvenu te s njom povezanu zgradu samostana, dograđen je i aneks kojim se dobio dodatan prostor hotela. Većina od šezdeset raskošno uređenih soba i apartmana smještena je u samostanskoj zgradi, dok je bivša crkva s aneksom preuzela ulogu recepcije, konferencijske dvorane, čitaonice, boutiquea i bara. Ostakljeno dizalo povezuje prostor crkve i samostana, a veličanstveni atrij i pripadajući vrt ekstenzija su unutrašnjih prostora kojima dominiraju dostojanstveni holovi s karakterističnim stropovima i velikim staklenim površinama. Jedan takav interijer u mezaninu udomio je i izvrsni restoran u kojemu se jednako uživa u hrani kao i u ambijentu i pogledu na pitoreskni centar Maastrichta, a tamo gdje je nekada davno bio crkveni zbor, sada je luksuzna vinoteka s golemim ostakljenim “sefom” za vina, u kojoj se redovito priređuju i vinske zakuske s nekoliko slijedova. Henk Vos zaslužan je za potpuno individualiziran izgled svake sobe i apartmana hotela Kruisheren: ono što najviše oduševljava goste jest ponovno sudar (u najboljem smislu te riječi) starog i novog, očuvanje originalnih zidova i stropnih freski iz 15. stoljeća, uz moderne aplikacije poput staklenih stijenki, suvremene umjetnosti, svježe palete boja i dizajnerskih komada namještaja (koje, među ostalim, potpisuju Le Corbusier, Philippe Starck, Marc Newson, Marcel Wanders, Ray i Charles Eames, Rietveld i Piet-Hein Eek) koji ipak ne odvlače pažnju s bitnoga, a to je ovdje definitivno baština. No, na top-listi prioriteta koje hotel mora zadovoljiti svakome bi gostu pri vrhu bila udobnost. U Kruisherenu se nije štedjelo na ugodi – svaka je soba opremljena jacuzzi masažnom kadom i tušem, velikim garderobnim prostorom, najudobnijim krevetima, brzom internetskom vezom, flat screen TV-om s DVD uređajem i nizom standardnih usluga za hotel visoke kategorije. A oni kojim nisu dovoljne standardne raskoši hotela Kruisheren, mogu rezervirati sobu 209, zapravo apartman koji osim prostranosti nudi i dodatni luksuz – ostakljeni zid u boji, odnosno originalni samostanski vitraj u kojemu mogu uživati samo gosti u 209. Sav taj luksuz ima i svoju cijenu: u hotelu Kruisheren odsjeda se po prosječnoj cijeni od 250-300 eura po noćenju, ali to neće spriječiti tragaoce za estetskim užicima da sebi priušte jedno doista nesvakidašnje iskustvo. 77 Interiors Hotel obiluje dizajnerskim komadima namještaja, kao što je narančasta “Heart Cone Chair” Vernera Pantona / The hotel is filled with designer pieces of furniture, such as the orange “Heart Cone Chair” by Verner Panton 78 Svaka soba je drugačijeg izgleda / Every room is different Očuvani su originalni zidovi i stropne freske iz 15. stoljeća / Original walls and ceiling frescoes from the 15th century are saved Recepcija / The reception Hotel Kruisheren Is a Successful Combination of Ancient History and Modern Luxury Gothic Rhapsody in Maastricht The outside look of what used to be a church and a monastery had to be respected, but that didn’t stop architect Henk Vos and designer Ingo Maurer from toying with the interpretation of the original. In that sense, Maurer gets the credit for lighting installations that further emphasize the beauty of the buildings. That is particularly evident in the work done on the atrium that, thanks to Maurer’s genius, looks like a “movie” combination of a highbudget SF and a gothic horror Written by: Helena Pajiæ Photo: Luc Boegly; www.designhotels.com 79 Interiors Edrina spiralna sofa Tatlin pronašla je svoje mjesto u predsoblju / Edra’s spiral sofa Tatlin has found place in the loby A t first glance, the Addams family from the movies could fit right in while passing through Maastricht: an elegant gothic establishment – what used to be a church and a monastery in the 15th century – leaves you standing in awe with its dignified architecture, and you might also feel a small pinch of discomfort. But that impression doesn’t last very long, as it goes away the minute you look behind the fantastic historical image that’s been turned into an exclusive address for tourists. Hotel Kruisheren is truly an extraordinary combination of past and present, and the gothic aspect is counterbalanced by the hypermodern interior that is blessed with the finest design of today. And it is exclusively Dutch, naturally, because we are talking about one of the finest Dutch hotels. Maastricht is renowned for its historical monuments, cultural sights, innovative architecture and design. All those things are happily matched in the town centre, at the picturesque Kommelplein Square, where we find the complex of buildings that used to be a sacral object, and that was standing on the verge of decay in the early 20th century. After the renovation, the church and monastery buildings were used by the National Agriculture Institute, and then they were slowly re-aban- 80 doned and about to be forgotten in the early eighties. Camille Oostwegel is the name of the organization that finally saved this magnificent building in the early 2000s. Specialized in renovating historical buildings, this company-foundation owns numerous castles and other monuments that were mostly turned into luxurious hotels, and that was exactly what awaited this forgotten beauty of Maastricht. The outside look had to be respected to the fullest, but that didn’t stop architect Henk Vos and designer Ingo Maurer from toying with the interpretation of the original. In that sense, Maurer gets the credit for complete lighting installations that further increase the mystical impression and emphasize the beauty of the gothic building (that is particularly evident in the work done on the atrium that, thanks to Maurer’s genius, looks like a “movie” combination of a high-budget SF and a gothic horror). German designer also has his signature on the lobby entrance, which he turned into a type of a tunnel that is covered in copper from within, as well as on the lighting in what used to be a chapel, and that now represents the joint spaces of the hotel. The detailed plan for renovation and interior decoration was handled by company “Satijn Plus Architects”, and Svaka je soba opremljena jacuzzi masažnom kadom i tušem / Every room is equipped with a jacuzzimassage bathtub and shower Većina od šezdeset raskošno uređenih soba i apartmana smještena je u samostanskoj zgradi / The majority of the sixty luxuriously decorated rooms and apartments are located in the monastery building most of the creative work was preformed by Henk Vos: along with the existent buildings of a church and a monastery that are connected, he also gained some more space for the hotel by adding an annex. The majority of the sixty luxuriously decorated rooms and apartments are located in the monastery building, while the ex-church and the annex have the roles of reception, conference hall, library, boutique and bar. The church and the monastery are connected by a glass elevator, and the magnificent atrium and the accompanying garden serve as extensions of indoor rooms that are dominated by dignified halls with characteristic ceilings and large glass surfaces. One such interior at the mezzanine hosts a marvellous restaurant where you spend as much time enjoying the food as the ambience and the view over the picturesque centre of Maastricht, while the place that once hosted the church choir now reveals a luxurious wine cellar with a gigantic glass “vault” for the wine, and that’s where wine parties with several sequences are regularly held. Henk Vos also deserves the praise for the completely individualized look of every room and apartment at the Kruisheren Hotel: the thing that does the best job of enchanting the guests is again a collision (in the best sense of that word) of the old and the new, such as the preservation of original walls and ceiling frescoes from the 15th century that are combined with some modern applications like glass surfaces, contemporary art, a fresh palette of colours and designer pieces of furniture (which, among others, include Le Corbusier, Philippe Starck, Marc Newson, Marcel Wanders, Ray and Charles Eames, Rietveld and Piet-Hein Eek), which don’t remove the attention from what really matters, and that is definitely the heritage of this place. However, every guest would always put comfort at the top of the priority list that every hotel must fulfil. Nobody thought about saving some money when it comes to the comfort at Kruisheren – every room is equipped with a jacuzzi-massage bathtub and shower, large wardrobe space, most comfortable beds, fast Internet connection, flat-screen TVs with DVD players and a string of other standard services for a high-category hotel. And those who aren’t happy with the standard luxuries of the Kruisheren Hotel can reserve room 209, which is actually a suite that offers some extra-luxury next to all the space – a glass wall in colours, or an original “stained glass” from the monastery that is reserved only for guests of room 209. All that luxury has a price: a night at the Kruisheren Hotel usually costs about 250300 euros, but that won’t stop searchers for aesthetic pleasures from affording themselves a truly extraordinary experience. 81 Dom snova Iznad blagovaoničkog stola tvrtke Zanotta svjetluca luster Caboche koji su dizajnirale Patricia Urquiola i Eliana Gerotto za Foscarini / Above the dining table by Zanotta glitters Caboche chandelier designed by Patricia Urquiola and Eliana Gerotto for Foscarini 82 “Sekundarni” dnevni boravak koji je moguće odvojiti od glavnog boravka pomicanjem zanimljivo riješenih pregradnih stijena / “Secondary” living room, which is represented by a space that can be separated from the main living room by moving the interestingly designed barrier surfaces Dizajn kao stil života Ovaj stan odlikuje dobro promišljen koncept i entuzijazam klijenata da ga opreme vodeći se ponajprije estetskim kriterijima, a tek onda onim financijskima Piše: Ivan Mladina S tan koji ovaj put predstavljamo pripada relativno novoj kategoriji suvremenog unutarnjeg uređenja hrvatskih stambenih prostora. Danas više nego ikad prije, sve veći broj imućnih, dizajnerski osviještenih klijenata ima hrabrosti, duha i intelektualne snage upustiti se, zajedno s projektantima, u nova istraživanja suvremenog stanovanja. Površine oko 150 četvornih metara, u suvremenoj urbanoj vili na zagrebačkim obroncima, ovaj stan odlikuje dobro promišljen koncept i entuzijazam klijenata da ga se opremi vodeći se ponajprije estetskim kriterijima, a tek onda onim financijskima. Foto: Kristina Faziniæ Arhitektica Vlatka Čizmić vješto je protumačila mogućnosti koje su pružali zadani gabariti stana, te optimalno diferencirala pojedine zone stana u odnosu na njihovu orijentaciju. Tako su spavaće sobe svoje mjesto našle u istočnom dijelu stana, dok je prostor za dnevni boravak smješten u zapadni dio, s kojeg se otvaraju i visokokvalitetne vizure. Potencijalno rizičan gubitak prostora i smanjenje fleksibilnosti zbog dugačkog hodnika, projektantica je elegantno izbjegla duhovito oformivši glavnu biblioteku, dok sam hodnik nedvosmisleno upućuje na prostranost i dubinu stana. Stube u hodniku proširenih su gazišta zbog 83 Duravitova kada u kupaonici / Duravito bathtub in the bathroom Detalj iz spavaće sobe / Detail from the bedroom Minimalistički uređena spavaća soba / Minimalistic decorated bedroom ugodnijeg penjanja, te su opremljene sustavom podne rasvjete. Obloga poda izvedena je od hrastovih dasaka velikog formata 200x15 cm, bajcanih u smeđi ton, čija umirujuća toplina hrastove teksture posebno dolazi do izražaja u prostoru dnevnog boravka. Reprezentativno dimenzioniran, dnevni boravak je određen kroz tri osnovne cjeline – priprave hrane, blagovanja i odmaranja. Posebno je zanimljivo rješenje “sekundarnog” dnevnog boravka, prostora koji je moguće odvojiti od glavnog boravka pomicanjem zanimljivo riješenih pregradnih stijena. Od dodatnih sadržaja svakako valja izdvojiti ukusno uređenu malu kupaonicu sa saunom. Kuhinja Varenna izvedena je s radnim plohama od inoksa i multifunkcionalnim otokom koji nudi domišljato rješenje neformalnog konzumiranja obroka na barskim stolicama marke Rexite. Terasa što se prostire cijelom frontom boravka funkcionira kao njegov logičan nastavak, obložena je egzotičnom južnoameričkom vrstom ipe, posebno velike tvrdoće i otpornosti na vlagu. Od unutarnjeg prostora odvojena je samo golemom kliznom staklenom stijenom, otvarajući pogled na okolne krošnje i vedute grada. Zaštita od sunca je pritom nenametljivo riješena pomičnim zavjesama. Ono što, međutim, ovaj stan posebno odvaja od ostalih jest neobično velika koncentracija pravih ikona industrijskog dizajna na jednome mjestu. Gotovo svaki komad koji 84 nije rađen po mjeri nosi potpis nekog od prominentnih autora modernog dizajna, dok su neki predmeti isprva prepoznatljivi čak i laicima. Za iznimno atraktivnu rasvjetu brinu se lampe Glo Ball u tri veličine, koje je za Flos dizajnirao Jasper Morisson, dok iznad blagovaoničkog stola svjetluca fantastičan luster Caboche tvrtke Foscarini. Spomenuvši blagovaonički stol, riječ je o golemom stolu tvrtke Zanotta s osam stolaca Wire Chair, kultnom uratku Harryja Bertoie iz 1948. godine. Dnevnim boravkom dominiraju dva Chaise Loungea legendarnog Le Corbusiera, začinjena foteljom Eileen Gray, stolićem Charles&Ray Eamesa te sagom Paule Lenti. Uz još nekoliko pomno odabranih komada, za opuštajući ugođaj brinu se i dva mlada stabla masline, postavljena u ovalne vaze od poliranog inoksa. Popis dizajnerskih poslastica nastavlja se gotovo unedogled – neizbježni Phillipe Starck prisutan je u rasponu od wenge furnirom obložene Duravitove kade u kupaonici do Juicy Salifa diskretno postavljenog u kuhinji, dok Antonio Citterio potpisuje iznimno minimalistički osmišljena vrata prema prostranoj garderobi uz glavnu spavaću sobu. Izvanredan sklad koji je arhitektica postigla kombinirajući sve te elemente, povremeno ih moderirajući dobro promišljenim zahvatima u sjajno bijelim ili wenge furniranom mediapanu, pokazuju istinsko poznavanje modernog dizajna i pravila njegove kompozicije. Rezultat velikog stvaralačkog truda je ovaj jedinstveni habitat, u kojem je moguće u potpunosti uživati u svim mjerilima.

Today more than ever before, more and more wealthy, design-wise conscious clients have the courage, spirit and intellectual strength to embark into new researches of modern living, aided by their designers. Taking up about 150 square metres inside a modern urban villa on the hills of Zagreb, this apartment is characterized by a well-designed concept and the clients’ enthusiasm to furnish it while being motivated by aesthetical criteria first, and financial criteria second. Architect Vlatka Čizmić skilfully interpreted the possibilities within the apartment’s existent limitations, and she optimally differentiated the apartment’s individual zones according to their orientation. That’s why the bedrooms ended up being located in the eastern part of the apartment, while the living-room space found its place in the western section, which made way for some high-quality views. A potentially risky loss of space and Photo: Kristina Faziniæ the reduction of flexibility due to the lengthy hallway were elegantly avoided by the designer as she amusingly formed the main library room, while the hallway itself undeniably points out the apartment’s spaciousness and depth. The hallway stairs were broadened due to the comfort of climbing them, and they were also equipped with a floor-lighting system. The covering of the floor was preformed with oak-tree boards with large 200x15-cm measures, and they were coloured in a brown tone that caused the soothing warmth of the oak’s texture to really fill up the livingroom space. Representatively measured, the living room was defined through three basic units – food preparation, dining and relaxing. There is also a very interesting solution for a “secondary” living room, which is represented by a space that can be separated from the main living room by moving the interestingly designed barrier surfaces. As far as any extra-features go, we must point out a very tastefully decorated little bathroom with a sauna. 85 Dream home Kuhinja Varenna izvedena je s radnim plohama od inoksa i multifunkcionalnim otokom / The Varenna kitchen was preformed with working surfaces made of inox and a multi-functional island The Varenna kitchen was preformed with working surfaces made of inox and a multi-functional island that offers an imaginative solution of informally having a meal on some barstools made by Rexita. The terrace that spreads itself alongside the living room functions as its logical extension, and features an exotic SouthAmerican type of floor covering that is extra-hard and very resilient to moisture. The only thing that separates it from the indoor premises is a gigantic sliding glass surface, which reveals the view of surrounding trees and sceneries of the city. Protection from the sun is unpretentiously handled with some movable curtains. 86 However, what really separates this apartment from so many others is an extraordinarily large concentration of true industrial-design icons in one place. Almost every piece that wasn’t custom-made carries a signature of one of the prominent authors of modern design, while some of the objects can be instantly recognized even by laics. Credit for the extremely attractive lighting goes to Glo Ball lamps in three sizes, which were designed by Jasper Morrisson for Flos, while we also find the fantastic Caboche chandelier by the company Foscarini glittering above the dining table. While we’re mentioning the dining table, it must be pointed out that Obloga poda izvedena je od hrastovih dasaka velikog formata 200x15 cm / The covering of the floor was preformed with oak-tree boards with large 200x15 cm measures Dnevnim boravkom dominiraju dva Chaise Loungea legendarnog Le Corbusiera / The living room is dominated by two Chaise Lounge pieces from legendary Le Corbusier it’s a huge table by Zanotta surrounded by eight Wire Chair pieces, which were famously made by Harry Bertoi in 1948. The living room is dominated by two Chaise Lounge pieces from legendary Le Corbusier, spiced up by an Eileen Gray armchair, a coffee table by Charles and Ray Eames, and a carpet by Paula Lenti. Along with several other carefully chosen pieces, the relaxing ambience must also be credited to two young olive trees that were placed inside a couple of oval vases made of polished inox. A list of designer delicacies continues as if there’s no tomorrow – the unavoidable Phillipe Starck is present- ed in the bathroom by a wenge-veneered Duravito bathtub, as well as by a discretely positioned Juicy Salif in the kitchen. Meanwhile, Antonio Citterio is the author of the minimalist doorway ahead of the spacious wardrobe alongside the main bedroom. The sensational grace that the architect accomplished by combining all these elements, occasionally completing them with well-conceived moves in shiny-white or wengeveneered MDF boards, demonstrate true knowledge of modern design and the rules of its composition. The result of this creative effort is this unique habitat, which can be enjoyed according to any criteria. 87 Interijeri Drvene kade hit su u posljednje vrijeme. Proizvodi ih talijanska tvrtka Agape, a može ih se pronaći u riječkom salonu H2O dizajn / Wooden bathtubs have been a hit lately. They are manufactured by Italian company Agape, and they can be found in the “H2O Design” showroom in Rijeka Kupaonice - funkcionalnost na prvom mjestu Stil je ono što će vašu kupaonicu učiniti posebnom, no koliko god trendovi napredovali, kod adaptiranja i projektiranja nove kupaonice, nemojte zaboraviti na ono osnovno, a to je da vaša kupaonica mora biti funkcionalna i, bez obzira na veličinu, dovoljno prostrana, te praktična Piše: Aleksandar Vrtariæ 88 Ultramoderan stakleni umivaonik tvrtke Antonio Lupi / Ultra-modern glass washbasin from company Antonio Lupi Antonio Lupi Odabir sanitarija ovisi o vlastitu ukusu / Choice of sanitary facilities depends on your own taste I Antonio Lupi ako je osnovna svrha svake kupaonice njezina funkcionalnost, vizualni dio je jednako važan. Bez obzira radi li se o većoj ili manjoj kupaonici, taj prostor uvijek može pratiti stil koji dominira u stanu ili kući. Kada je uređenje u pitanju, svi nastoje napraviti nešto originalno, posebno i lijepo, pa stoga ni kupaonice ne treba zapostaviti. Pažljivim odabirom sanitarija, keramičkih pločica, vodootpornog laminata ili čak drveta, te izborom detalja, kupaonicu ćete učiniti vrlo ugodnim prostorom u kojemu ćete se ugodno opustiti na kraju napornoga radnog dana. Tradicionalni, antikni ili moderni stil – prije uređivanja treba sve pažljivo isplanirati, od krupnih stvari do najsitnijih detalja jer čak i najmanje pogreške prigodom adaptacije ili uređivanja nove kupaonice poslije se teško ispravljaju. Sanitarije i funkcionalnost Kad su obiteljske kuće i stanovi u pitanju, vrlo je važno obratiti pažnju na to da je kupaonica zajednički prostor i da se njome jednako koriste svi članovi obitelji, a to, naravno, treba prilagoditi rapoloživom prostoru. Odabir sanitarija ovisi o vlastitu ukusu, no s obzirom da više od 50 posto kućanstava raspolaže s relativno malim kupaonicama koje su rijetko veće od pet četvornih metara, Nužno je svaki element postaviti na idealno mjesto tako da kupaonički prostor bude dovoljno prostran i optimalno iskorišten / It’s necessary to place every element into the ideal place in order to make the bathroom space large enough and optimally utilized Antonio Lupi nužno je svaki element postaviti na idealno mjesto tako da kupaonički prostor bude dovoljno prostran i optimalno iskorišten. Dakako, velike kupaonice imaju i dodatne prednosti jer se u njih može ugraditi kada većih dimenzija, kozmetički stol pa čak i sauna. Danas se na tržištu mogu pronaći najrazličitiji sanitarni elementi – od praktičnih kutnih umivaonika i kutnih tuš-kada s ugrađenim masažerima do praktičnih konzolnih polica. Ako niste zadovoljni izgledom svoje kupaonice i planirate potpunu adaptaciju, pažljivo izmjerite prostor, pogledajte gdje se nalaze vrata i prozor (ako uopće postoji) te na kojim bi mjestima bilo najbolje postaviti sanitarije a da ostane dovoljno mjesta za kupaonički namještaj i perilicu za rublje. Sanitarne elemente možete pregraditi parapetnim zidovima te ih tako vizualno odvojiti, dok prostor na pregradi do visine stropa možete iskoristiti za postavljanje polica. Kod adaptacija i projektiranja kupaonica svakako obratite pažnju na djecu – nastojte odabrati pod koji nije previše klizav, odaberite nižu kadu u koju će dijete samo moći ući, izbjegavajte kupaonički namještaj s oštrim kutevima i nabavite minijaturne stube koje su vrlo praktične za djecu, a lako se mogu pospremiti i odložiti kada se ne koriste. 89 Viva Ceramica Materijali i namještaj Za oblaganje kupaoničkih podova i zidova najčešće se koristi keramika, no danas su dostupni različiti materijali, poput laminatnih i PVC obloga, obloga od smole i kvarcita, imitacija kamena i obloga od egzotičnog drveta. Kad su u pitanju funkcionalnost i jednostavno održavanje, keramika je definitivno najbolji i najsigurniji izbor, ali uz pravilno održavanje čak će i materijali od drveta trajati duži niz godina. Istina, kao i svaka druga prostorija, i kupaonica može biti odraz vlastita stila i ukusa, pa su tako na raspolaganju umjetnički dizajnirani mozaici, drvene kade ili skupocjene sanitarije od prvoklasnog inoksa. Prednost svakako dajte onim materijalima koji se lakše održavaju. Kod odabira namještaja, osim praktičnosti i dizajna, treba dobro pripaziti na sam materijal od kojeg je namještaj izrađen jer isti mora biti otporan na vlagu. Jednako vrijedi i za sva rasvjetna tijela jer veća količina vlage u zraku može izazvati kratki spoj. Kupaonički namještaj valja prilagoditi prostoru, a tu vrijedi vrlo jednostavno pravilo: za manju kupaonicu najbolje će odgovarati namještaj manjih dimenzija, i obrnuto. Detaljima do savršenstva Baš kao i svaki drugi prostor, da bi izgledala potpuno, svaka kupaonica traži detalje koji će je učiniti ljepšom, bogatijom i toplijom. Ukrase u kupaonici valja prilagoditi stilu koji u njoj prevladava. Iskoristite maštu i kreativnost kod odabira tepiha, zavjesa i ukrasa, poigrajte se s rasporedom rasvjetnih tijela, izradom vlastita mozaika, pa čak i oslikavanjem prozora ili pregradnih zidova, te poklonite svojoj kupaonici dozu originalnosti. Uz biljke, svaki je interijer ljepši jer u četiri zida one donose dašak prirode, no s kupaonicama valja pripaziti. Naime, isparavanja i kemikalije iz kupki i gelova za tuširanje štete biljkama, stoga je nužna dobro riješena ventilacija. Ako vaša kupaonica ima prozor, biljke će svakako uspijevati bolje, no ako nema prirodne rasvjete, pomoći će vam posebne žarulje koje imitiraju sunčevu svjetlost. Od biljaka svakako odaberite sobni bršljan, razne vrste filadendrona i paprati, a dobro uspijevaju i popularni bambusi. 90 Koralji kao dekoracija.

Regardless of whether we’re talking about a bigger or smaller bathroom, that room can always keep up with the dominating style in the flat or house. When it comes to decorating, everyone tries to accomplish something original, special and beautiful, so there’s no reason to ignore the bathrooms either. By carefully choosing the sanitary facilities, ceramic tiles, waterproof laminate or even wood, and by the choice of details, you can turn a bathroom into a very comfortable room where you can truly relax at the end of a hardworking day. Traditional, antique or modern style – you must carefully plan everything prior to decorating, from the large things to the smallest details, because even the smallest mistakes in the process of adaptation or decoration of a new bathroom are very difficult to correct later on. 92 Sanitary Facilities and Functionality When it comes to family houses and apartments, it’s very important to pay attention to the fact that a bathroom is a room that is equally used by all the members of the family, and that, naturally, has to be adjusted to the available space. The sanitary facilities you choose depend on your own taste, but knowing that over 50% of households have relatively small bathrooms at their disposal, often not larger than five square metres, it’s necessary to place every element into the ideal place in order to make the bathroom space large enough and optimally utilized. Of course, large bathrooms have many extra-advantages because you can build in a bathtub of bigger dimensions, as well as a cosmetic table or even a sauna. You can find the most diverse sanitary elements on the market today – from practical corner washbasins and corner shower-tubs with built-in massagers to prac- H20 design Plastični umivaonik tvrtke Agape / Plastic washbasin by company Agape H20 design Svaka kupaonica traži detalje koji će je učiniti ljepšom, bogatijom i toplijom / Every bathroom craves for some details that will add some beauty, richness and warmth tical cantilever shelves. If you’re not happy with how your bathroom looks and you’re planning on a complete adaptation, make sure to carefully take all the necessary measures, look at the location of doors and windows (if there are any) and decide which places would be the best for sanitary facilities, while still leaving enough room for bathroom furniture and the washing machine. Sanitary elements can be partitioned by using parapet walls that would visually separate them, while the spot on the partition up to the ceiling level can be used for assembling some shelves. While adapting and projecting the bathroom, make sure to pay attention to children – try choosing the floor that is not too slippery, pick a lower bathtub so the children can get into it by themselves, avoid bathroom furniture with sharp angles and get some miniature stairs that are very practical for children, but can also easily be removed and stored when they’re not used. Materials and Furniture Ceramics is predominantly used for covering bathroom floors and walls, but many other different materials are also available these days, such as laminate or PVC coverings, coverings made of resin or quartz, imitations of stone and coverings from exotic wood. When it comes to functionality and simple maintenance, ceramics is definitely the best and the safest choice, but if you take care of it the right way, even wooden materials will last for a number of years. It’s true that, just like every other room, the bathroom can also be a statement about your own style and taste, so there are various artistically designed mosaics available, as well as wooden bathtubs or expensive sanitary facilities made of first-class inox. Make sure to give advantage to those materials that are easier to maintain. While you’re choosing your furniture, besides its practicality and design, you should be very careful about the material used to make that furniture because it has to be resistant to moisture. The same goes for all the lighting objects because the higher degree of moisture in the air can cause a short circuit. Bathroom furniture has to be adapted to the space, and there’s one simple rule for that: a smaller bathroom is compatible to smallersized furniture, and vice versa. Details Lead to Perfection Just like any other room, in order to make it look complete, every bathroom craves for some details that will add some beauty, richness and warmth. The bathroom decorations must be adjusted to the style that dominates it. Use your imagination and creativity while choosing the rugs, curtains and decorations, and also play around with the arrangement of lighting objects; you can also make your own mosaic, or even paint the windows or partition walls, which would provide your bathroom with a dose of originality. Plants make any interior more beautiful because they bring the breath of nature inside the four walls, but you must be careful while using them for bathrooms. That is because the evaporation and the chemicals from the hot baths and shower gels are harmful for plants, which means you’ll need some quality ventilation. If your bathroom has a window, the plants will certainly succeed more easily, but if there’s no natural light, some special light bulbs that imitate the sunlight will come in handy. Make sure you choose plants like indoor ivy, different types of philodendrons and fern, and you’ll also find success with the popular bamboo. 93 Interijeri Dječja soba za male ljubitelje Japana / A children’s bedroom for little Japan fans Djeèje sobe ureðujte zajedno! Uređivanje dječje sobe može biti vrlo zabavno, ali pri tome nikako ne treba zaboraviti na samu djecu jer ona svakako moraju sudjelovati u odabiru namještaja, boja na zidovima, zavjesa S Piše: Aleksandar Vrtariæ vaki prostor ima svoju namjenu i odiše vlastitim identitetom, a svakome od nas potreban je dio prostora koji ćemo urediti po svojim željama.

Uređivanje dječje sobe može biti vrlo zabavno, ali pri tome nikako ne treba zaboraviti na samu djecu jer ona svakako moraju sudjelovati u odabiru namještaja, boja na zidovima, zavjesa itd.

Stoga ne zanemarite njihove zahtjeve i potrudite se pronaći zajednički izbor, no istodobno pripazite da svaki dio namještaja bude svrhovit i praktičan. Sudjelovanjem u uređivanju dječje sobe ne samo da možete ugodno provoditi vrijeme sa svojim mališanima, nego ćete ih naučiti izražavanju vlastite kreativnosti i stvaranju smisla za estetiku, a ako će istu sobu dijeliti dvoje ili više djece, ne zanemarite želje nijednog djeteta i dopustite im da svi jednako sudjeluju. Organizacija i namještaj Prije samog uređivanja dječje sobe morate najprije obratiti pažnju na ono najvažnije, a to je praktičnost. Od samog namještaja do boja na zidovima, sve mora biti prilagođeno djeci, odnosno njihovu uzrastu. Namještaj mora biti stabilan i bez naglašenih kuteva. Pripazite na visinu polica u ormarima i odaberite elemente koji će imati dovoljno prostora i nikako nemojte zaboravi- ti da će sve one igračke morati pronaći svoje mjesto. Prostor ispod kreveta će odlično poslužiti za pospremanje igrački – potrebno je samo nabaviti neke lijepe kutije i naučiti djecu da nakon svake igre stvari pospreme tamo gdje im je mjesto. Kod odabira madraca, nikako nemojte štedjeti jer nekvalitetan madrac može imati loš utjecaj na dječju kralježnicu. U razdoblju između treće godine i prvih školskih dana, dječja soba mora imati dovoljno prostora za igru pa ni u kom slučaju nemojte zatrpati prostoriju viškom namještaja. Iskoristite prostor na zidu za razne police, a centar sobe ostavite što slobodnijim. Osim prostora za igranje, građenje i slaganje, uredite i dio za kreativno izražavanje. Danas se po vrlo povoljnim cijenama mogu nabaviti dječji kreveti s malim pisaćim stolovima za kojima se djeca mogu igrati bojama ili plastelinom. Kod odabira zidnih boja, uzmite u obzir da će djeca često pošarati zidove i zaprljati ih rukama, stoga je pametnije odabrati zidne boje koje su otporne na vodu jer ćete ih po potrebi lako moći očistiti vlažnom krpom. No, osim tih stvari o 95 Jednostavno i praktično / Simple and functional Berlonijeva dječja soba Vega / Berloni’s children bedroom Vega Krevet s prostorom za učenje ispod najbolji su za uštedu prostora / A bed with the studying space underneath is the best way to economize space Živahne boje najbolji su izbor za dječju sobu / Lively colours are best choise kojima brinu stariji, ne zaboravite na maštu i spustite se na dječju razinu. Odaberite živahne boje, zavjese s vedrim uzorcima, vesele pokrivače i namještaj koji djeluje toplo i ugodno. Ako će istu sobu dijeliti dvoje djece, poigrajte se s vizualnim dijeljenjem prostora. Primjerice, zid na dijelu namijenjenom dječaku možete obojiti u lijepu nijansu plave boje i za njega odabrati prigodan namještaj, dok dio namijenjen djevojčici možete odvojiti toplom ružičastom bojom. Budući da se ove boje lijepo slažu, cijela prostorija će izgledati lijepo i ugodno, a svaki od mališana će imati osjećaj svog dijela. Naravno, jednako je važno da ostavite i djeci priliku da izraze svoju kreativnost, pažljivo ih slušajte i nemojte se začuditi ako vas iznenade svojim ukusom, jer, iako su mali, često znaju imati i više ukusa od starijih. S odrastanjem se mijenja i izgled sobe Od najranijih dana pa sve do doba adolescencije, uzrast djece je ono što određuje izgled njihove sobe. U razdoblju do prvih školskih dana, sve se svodi na igru, skakanje i ostale nestašluke, no polaskom u školu djeca postaju zrelija pa će polako svoj mali pisaći stol pože- 96 ljeti zamijeniti stolom za računalo, a lutkice i autiće će zamijeniti posteri omiljenih zvijezda i police s najdražim CD-ima. Iz godine u godinu, vaša će djeca postajati sve zrelija, a na vama je da se tome prilagodite. Kako odrastaju, razvija se njihov identitet, a samim tim i njihov ukus, koji morate poštovati. Na vama će uvijek ostati da brinete o tome je li namještaj u sobi dovoljno funkcionalan, no nikako nemojte zaboraviti na činjenicu da svi mi trebamo svoj dio, u kojemu se osjećamo najsigurnije i najugodnije. Za djecu, njihova soba je kutak njihove intime, stoga im nastojte ugoditi koliko god možete i dopustite im da se u svoja četiri zida osjećaju lijepo. Oni su mali ljudi kojima je, baš kao i odraslima, jednako važno da izraze svoju osobnost i da njihova soba nosi njihov “pečat”. Jasno, to ne znači da ćete na svaki zahtjev morati odgovarati kupnjom novog maještaja i kompletnom adaptacijom, no sitne promjene, kao što su mijenjanje rasporeda i zidnih boja, svakako će pomoći. Bez obzira jesu li u vrtiću ili su krenuli u srednju školu, omogućite im da sudjeluju u uređivanju i, nemojte zaboraviti, samo uz dogovor će i djeca i roditelji biti zadovoljni. Namještaj mora biti stabilan i bez naglašenih kuteva / The furniture must be stable and without any sharp angles Written by: Aleksandar Vrtariæ Interiors Photo: Vibel and Berloni Children’s Bedrooms Decorate Together! Decorating a children’s bedroom can be a lot of fun, but you shouldn’t forget about the children themselves in the process because they certainly must participate in choosing the furniture, wall paint, curtains E very room has its purpose and its own identity, and each of us needs a space that we’ll decorate according to our wishes. Children’s bedrooms are rooms that are dominated by innocence, joy and playfulness, and with the kids growing up, the ambience in their rooms will also keep changing. Decorating a children’s bedroom can be a lot of fun, but you shouldn’t forget about the children themselves in the process because they certainly must par- ticipate in choosing the furniture, wall paint, curtains etc. Being that this is the room where the children will spend most of their time, you should pay attention to the wishes of your little ones so they can feel good, comfortable and safe in their corner. Therefore, don’t ignore their demands and do your best to find common ground, while also making sure that every piece of the furniture is purposeful and practical. Not only can you spend some quality time with your little ones while tak- 97 Interiors Francuski proizvođač Vibel ima najveći izbor tematski dizajniranih dječjih soba / French manufacturer Vibel has the biggest selection of thematically designed children’s bedrooms ing part in decorating their bedroom, but you will also teach them how to express their creativity and develop their sense of aesthetics, and if the same room is to be shared by two or more children, do not ignore what any of the children want and allow them to equally participate in the process. Organization and Furniture Before you start the very process of decorating the children’s bedroom, you must pay attention to the most important thing, and that is practicality. From the furniture itself to the paint on the walls, everything has to be adjusted to children and their age. The furniture must be stable and without any sharp angles. Pay attention to the height of the closet shelves and choose those elements that will have enough room, and do not forget that all those toys will have to find their place. The space under the bed would be ideal for storing up toys – all you have to do is get some nice boxes and teach the kids about putting their things into their place after they’re finished with them. While choosing the mattresses, don’t even think about saving money because a low-quality mattress can have a bad influence on the 98 child’s spine. In the period between the age of 3 and the first days in school, it’s crucial for the children’s bedroom to have enough room for playing, so make sure not to suffocate the room with too much furniture. Use up the space on the walls for various shelves, but leave the centre of the room as vacant as possible. Besides the space for playing, building and folding, arrange a little section for creative expressing. These days, you don’t have to pay a lot of money to buy children’s beds with little desks where the children can play with colours or plasticine. While choosing the wall paint, take into consideration that the children will often doodle something all over the walls and get them dirty with their hands, so it would be smart to choose the wall paint that is resistant to water, so that you can easily clean the walls with a wet mop if necessary. But besides those things that have to be arranged by the adults, don’t forget about using your imagination and lower yourself to the level of your children. Pick lively colours, curtains with bright samples, happy-looking blankets and furniture that has a warm, comfortable effect. If the same room is to be shared by two children, engage yourself in the game of visually splitting up the room. For example, you can take Sve igračke moraju imati svoje mjesto / All toys should have own place the wall in the boy’s part of the room and paint it in a nice shade of blue, while also picking out some furniture that would go along with it, and the warm colour of pink would be ideal to separate the section that belongs to the girl. Being that these colours actually complement each other, the entire room will look nice and cosy, and each of the kids will have a feeling that a part of the room belongs to them. Naturally, it’s just as important to give your children a chance to express their creativity, so listen to them carefully and don’t be surprised if they demonstrate a lot of good taste, because their age often doesn’t stop them from having better taste then the grown-ups. Growing Up Changes the Way the Room Looks Since the earliest days to the period of adolescence, the children’s age is what determines the way their room will look. In the period up until their first days in school, it’s all about playing, jumping and other naughty things, but as they start going to school, the children will become more mature and they will slowly want to trade their little desk for a desk with a computer, and their little dolls and cars will be replaced by posters of their beloved celebri- ties and shelves with their favourite CDs. As the years go by, your children will become more and more mature, and it’s up to you to make the necessary adjustments. As they grow up, their identity is developing as well and that will bring certain changes to their taste, and you must respect that. It’s up to you to assure that all the furniture in the room is functional enough, but don’t forget the fact that we all need our little section where we feel as secure and comfortable as possible. Children think of their rooms as their intimate corners, so try humouring them as much as possible and allow them to feel good within their four walls. They are little people who need to express their personality as much as the adults do, so make sure their room reflects who they are. Naturally, this doesn’t mean that you will answer every demand by buying new furniture and completely adapting the room, but certain small changes, such as changing the arrangement or the wall paint, can certainly do a lot of good. Regardless of whether they’re going to kindergarten or high school, make them a part of the decorating process and don’t forget – only coming to an agreement will make both the children and the parents happy. 99 Kult ni komad Piše: Nataša Bodrožiæ 100 Foto: S�ren Larsen Proizvodnja je bila nadahnuta idejom da stolica može stajati sama za sebe, bez potrebe da bude dio kompleta namještaja /The production was inspired with an idea that a chair can stand all by itself, without the need to make it a part of a furniture ensemble Hans Wegner: Three legged shell chair (1963.)

Na službenim stranicama proizvođača Carl Hansen & Son, navodi se kuriozitet da je jedan od originalnih primjeraka te stolice iz šezdesetih prodan na dražbi aukcijske kuće Christie’s u Londonu za 104.000 danskih kruna, 1999. godine, dok je nova stolica, u isto vrijeme, u danskim dućanima stajala trinaest puta manje. Wegnerova tronožna stolica originalni je komad namještaja koji je lako zamisliti u sklopu minimalističkog interijera nekog modernog doma. Može stajati sama, kao individualni komad namještaja, ili u kompletu s još nekoliko istovrsnih komada raspoređenih oko okruglog stola, primjerice. Iako stoji na tri noge, ova je stolica iznimno stabilna i čvrsta, a 1999. je dobila najveću moguću ocjenu na testu danskog Tehnološkog instituta. “Stolica ne može imati naličje”, jednom je prigodom rekao Wegner, “ona mora biti lijepa iz svih uglova iz kojih se gleda.” Tronožna stolica u obliku školjke upravo je takva, nepretenciozna, nenametljiva i lijepa u svojoj jednostavnosti iza koje se krije studiozni dizajn. Posljednjih nekoliko desetljeća, Wegner je nastavio s dizajniranjem stolica, ali se posvetio i dizajnu svjetla. Tako je, u suradnji s kćerkom, 1976. godine kreirao lampu “Pole”. Kao istinski majstor, često je znao isticati da još uvijek ne postoji idealna stolica. Izraditi dobru stolicu, zadatak je koji nikada nije zaista završen. Uvijek postoje novi izazovi, iako je funkcija sjedenja, zapravo, ostala nepromijenjena već tisućama godina. Vrhunac Wegnerove slave i popularnosti njegova dizajna bile su pedesete i šezdesete godine dvadesetog stoljeća, a primjerci njegova namještaja, posebice stolica, mogu se naći u kolekcijama najprestižnijh muzeja širom 102 svijeta. Londonsko Kraljevsko društvo umjetnosti dodijelilo mu je prestižnu nagradu počasnoga kraljevskog industrijskog dizajnera 1959. godine. Hans Wegner bio je jedan od najinovativnijih i najproduktivnijih danskih dizajnera. Njegov je rad spoj iznimnog majstorstva i promišljanja modernog življenja, a njegovo ime simbol danskog dizajna sredine dvadesetog stoljeća i alternativne moderne estetike. U tijeku iznimno dugog radnog vijeka, dizajnirao je neke od najmaštovitijih modela stolica koje su obilježile stoljeće. Od očiju javnosti povukao se tek pred kraj života. Umro je početkom ove godine, u devedeset i trećoj godini. Iako stoji na tri noge, Wegnerova stolica je iznimno stabilna i čvrsta / Although it stands on three legs, Wegner’s chair is very stable and firm A piece of cult Written by: Nataša Bodrožiæ Photo: S�ren Larsen Hans Wegner: Three-Legged Shell Chair (1963) The Three-Legged Chair from the Danish Workshop “We must make sure not to make everything deadly serious. We must play around, but do so in a serious way.“ Hans Wegner H ans Wegner, another one of those Danish designers who used his work to largely contribute to the “Danish design myth”, once said: “Many foreign people have asked me how we create Danish style. I answered that it’s more a continuing purification process, combined with simplification in my case, that reduces the construction to the most simplistic elements possible, and those are the four legs, the seat and the combined upper bar with arm support.” With his tendency for using natural materials and his deep understanding of the need to make furniture as functional as it is beautiful, Wegner propelled Danish design of the mid-20th century up to international popularity. His most famous contribution is his “Round Chair”, which played a role of a historical décor in the famous TV debate between John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon in 1961, during the American presidential elections. Even prior to that, the prestigious “Interiors” magazine proclaimed it the most beautiful chair in the world in 1950, which launched Wegner into the international orbit by hinting his success at the profitable international market. He began his career as a carpenter in 1931, only to eventually attend an arts&crafts school in Copenhagen, followed by the Faculty of Architecture. He originally worked as a designer in the architectonic office of Arne Jacobsen and Erik Moller, but he opened his own office in 1943. Ever since his first pieces of work, such as the elegant chair from 1937 that was designed for the Museum of Deco- 103 A piece of cult Wegnerova tronožna stolica originalni je komad namještaja koji je lako zamisliti u sklopu minimalističkog interijera / Wegner’s three-legged chair is an original piece of furniture that is easily imaginable within a minimalist interior 104 rative Arts, there was always the presence of Wegner’s characteristic approach of showing the bare structure of an archaic type of a chair by liberating it from any unnecessary accessories, only to present it in its own pure construction. His work belongs to the minimalist school, along with the unavoidable preservation of functionality. Wegner designed over five hundred chairs, many of which have found their place as museum items. The “Peacock” chair, inspired by the classic “Windsor” chair, is a folding chair that could be hung against the wall; then there is the multi-functional “Valet” chair, which was designed as an economical seating object, but also a storage for different parts of clothes; the “Ox” chair with or without its horns; “Wishbone” or “Y” chair as the most commercially successful of the bunch – these are just some of the models that clearly show that Wegner insisted on pure form, clear purpose and top-notch skill, and isn’t that what good design is all about? The true beauty of Wegner’s genius also has to be perceived within his cooperation with leading furniture manufacturer Johannes Hansen. Hansen’s approach to accept the ideas of young, innovative designers led to a perfect combination of a designer and a manufacturer. Their cooperation lasted for many years, from 1941 all the way to 1966, and they consistently displayed their joint products at artistic joinery exhibits. The Wegner – Hansen cooperation also resulted in a peculiar “Three- Legged Shell Chair” created in 1963, with a shape that demanded the bending of the wood in three directions, so its production was originally quite limited. The production was inspired with an idea that a chair can stand all by itself, without the need to make it a part of a furniture ensemble. The 1990s and their return to individualism have brought increased interest for the more specific designer pieces, such as Wegner’s three-legged chair that was re-launched in 1997, with the production expenses significantly reduced. Its originality and lower price led to its reaffirmation. At the official website of its manufacturer Carl Hansen & Son, you can find a curious piece of data that one of the original chairs from the 1960s was sold for 104 000 Danish crowns at the Christies auction in London in 1999, while the new chair cost thirteen times less at that same time in Danish stores. Wegner’s three-legged chair is an original piece of furniture that is easily imaginable within a minimalist interior of a modern home. It can stand by itself as an individual piece of furniture, or it can be a part of an ensemble along with several other similar pieces that are, for instance, arranged around a round table. Although it stands on three legs, this chair is very stable and firm, and it received the highest possible evaluation mark at a testprogramme of the Danish Institute of Technology in 1999. “A chair cannot have its ugly side”, Wegner once said, “it has to be equally gorgeous from all possible angles.” The “Three-Legged Shell Chair” is precisely like that – unpretentious, unassuming and beautiful in its simplicity that is a result of some studious designing. For the last several decades, Wegner continued designing chairs, but he also dedicated himself to designing lighting objects. For example, in cooperation with his daughter, he created the “Pole” lamp in 1976. As a true master at what he did, he often pointed out that there is no such thing as an ideal chair. To make a good chair is always a task that is never truly completed. There are always some new challenges, although the function of sitting has really remained unchanged for thousands of years now. The peak of Wegner’s fame and his design’s popularity came in the 1950s and 60s, and pieces of his furniture, especially chairs, can be found in collections of the most prestigious museums around the world. The Royal Association of Arts in London awarded him a prestigious title of an honorary royal industrial designer in 1959. Hans Wegner was one of the most innovative and productive Danish designers. His work is a combination of exceptional skill and analysis of modern living, while his name stands as a symbol of mid-twentieth-century Danish design and alternative modern aesthetics. During his extremely lengthy career, he has designed some of the most imaginative chair models that have truly marked the century. He only retired from the public eye during the last decade of his life. He died at the beginning of this year, at the age of 93. 105 Dekoracije LIZZIE ALLEN, www.lizzieallen.co.uk “Čuvari koji se izmjenjuju ispred Buckinghamske palače” naziv je zidnih tapeta koje će uveseliti svaki prostor / “Changing guards at Buckingham palace” is the name of the wallpapers that will bring joy into every room is the name of the wallpapers that will bring joy into every room 106 B&B ITALIA, www.bebitalia.it Jastuci Couples, dizajn Marcel Wanders / Cushions Couples, Design Marcel Wanders Na zidnim tapetama, sofama, tanjurima, prekrivačima i gotovo svim uporabnim predmetima, sve češće možemo vidjeti najrazličitije motive iz svakodnevnog života, stripa i crtića.

A poznavatelji domaće gastroscene ovakva su kulinarska nagnuća prepoznali u meniju klub-restorana Plato u zagrebačkom Kaptol centru. Plato se u samo pola godine od otvaranja prometnuo u novu meku za tan- 56 koćutna nepca, a francuski chef Stephano Macchi, koji je postavio prvi, proljetno-ljetni meni Platoa, već je opravdano opjevan u mnogim gastrokritikama. No, ono što je od početka bila orijentacija prestižnoga zagrebačkog lokala jest njegov demokratičan pristup: nije ovo mjesto na kojem će jedino moći uživati eksperimentatori, nego i svi ostali željni dobrog obroka s kvalitetnim sastojcima, s odličnom i školovanom uslugom – što je, nažalost, tako rijetka pojava i u tendencioznim hrvatskim restoranima – umjerenim cijenama, a u nadasve vrhunski uređenom ambijentu koji jednako dobro priziva uživanje u hrani i dobru zabavu. Interijer s veličanstvenom terasom koja gleda na gornjogradske prežuljke, prvi je adut Platoa: raskošni, ali neopterećujući, iznimno udoban i prozračan prostor u svijetlim tonovima doista dobro funkcionira i kao mjesto brzoga poslovnog ručka, i kao odabir sadržajnog večernjeg izlaska. Uostalom, takav je i odabir menadžmenta lokala, koji Plato vidi u konceptu “dining and clubbing”, sve popularnijem kod nas. Priča o “diningu” doista je prilagođena i zahtjevnijim gostima i onima koji više cijene konvencionalniji jelovnik. Tako u jesenskoj ponudi Platoa, predstavljenoj početkom prošloga mjeseca, ravnopravno stoluju tuna tataki, proljetne rolice sa slatko-kiselim umakom, piletina na štapiću s kikirikijem, pačja prsa s miso umakom, razni wokovi, ali i janjeći kotleti, tatarski biftek, neke zanimljive talijanske paste i steak sa slanim krumpirom. A kako se meni prilagodio prevladavajućem ukusu zagrebačke publike, ne forsirajući snobizam i ne nasilno “preodgajajući” ljubitelje dobre hrane, tako je i raspon cijena prilagođen najvećem dijelu potencijalnih gostiju, pri čemu se posebno cilja na mlađe zaposlene ljude kojima je, osim večere, često na pameti i ono “poslije” večere. Cijene su u Platou doista fer, s predjelima i malim toplim jelima čija cijena ne prelazi pedesetak kuna, dok za najskuplje jelo na meniju nećete morati izdvojiti više od stotinjak kuna. Biti “nježan” na džepu, ali zanimljiv i konkurentan u ponudi, Platoov je recept koji od otvaranja donosi odlične rezultate. Na koncu, element “clubbinga” od jeseni je obogaćen izvrsnim novim programom. Srijeda, kao jedan od “gluhih” dana u tjednu za zabavnu ponudu metropole, inauguriran je u Platou kao “Wednesday Live Clubbing”. Svake srijede od 24. listopada u Platou uživo nastupaju naša najpoznatija estradna imena, uz živu svirku na klaviru i gitari. Program je, prema riječima voditelja klub-restorana, zamišljen kao nekoliko setova, u početku laganijih pa sve bržih, kako bi gosti mogli uz večeru, svijeće i razgovor poslušati poznate hitove stranih i domaćih izvodača i uživati u atmosferi kluba. U Platou tako tijekom jeseni i zime srijedom možete naletjeti na nastupe Natali Dizdar, Divasica, Jacquesa Houdeka i Ivane Kindl, Massima, Vanne, Tonija Cetinskog... Uz ovaj novitet, Plato će svake subote ugostiti i svojevrsni after party televizijskog showa “Ples sa zvijezdama”, uz gostovanje ekipe plesača, a tijekom ovoga mjeseca najavljena je i “grčka večer” uz grčku glazbu, dodatna ponuda u meniju i mnoštvo drugih zanimljivih detalja. Valja očekivati da je sve ovo samo početak jednoga divnog prijateljstva između zahtjevne zagrebačke publike i ozbiljnog i ambicioznog zagrebačkog lokala.
