當我在讀設計的時候, 導師們常常告訴我們要感激生活的每一個小細節, 並且觀察其中的美。這兩位藝術家Kaarina Kaikkonen 和 Sivan Askayo明顯的都覺得“曬衣服”這件事很有美感。(話說在上海, 曬衣服這件事也是一個很有影響力的文化呢!哈哈)日常生活/物件與空間之間的關係, 在這裡表現得很細緻也很有規律。現在至2013/10/08之前你都有機會到上海的K11地下三樓的Chi藝文空間 去看Kaarina Kaikkonen的作品, 去體驗幾百件舊衣“齊放”的震撼!


When I was studying art, we have been taught to appreciate everyday life and observe the beauty within it. Both artists, Kaarina Kaikkonen and Sivan Askayo found the beauty within the wire and the clothes. (Apparently, in Shanghai,  drying the clothes is kinda a massive street art! haha) The art between ordinary life/object and the space has create something so delicate and organized. Now till 8th of October, you have the chance to see Kaarina Kaikkonen's work  at Chi K11 in Shanghai andand WOOO it when you see the massive installation.



THANKS FOR READING! xx

不管在哪個城市, 週末喝咖啡聊是非的文化無所不在。我在這個部落格也介紹了幾家上海有特色的咖啡館, 走的都是復古路線, 這一個把我拉回了水泥叢林, 但我卻也能感到自在放鬆。坐落在靜安設計中心內, 在大廳裡的Seesaw Coffee好像是這裡辦公的人唯一的慰藉。飄著咖啡香, 配上巨大的天井透光, 在這裡工作就像隻身天堂。第二次造訪帶上電腦的我也默默地坐上了4個小時編輯圖片跟文稿。在家聽coffitifity久了也會想實際感受cafe裡能令人專注的獨特氛圍嘈雜聲。這裡的咖啡,內行人喝了都說很純很專業, 第一次來對於他沒有賣茶有點失望的我, 喝著朋友點的咖啡, 不放任何糖與奶, 帶點酒香的kanya讓我愛上了這裡的一切。(平日不喝咖啡的我喝了這杯也不暈也沒有不舒服)這裡也會不定期舉辦咖啡研習, 喜歡咖啡的朋友來上海真的不要錯過這家cafe。


Wherever you are, going to a cafe, drinking coffee and gossiping in the weekend is the must-do in all the cities. I've post some cafe in shanghai, but most of them are in retro styles. This one, pull me back into this concrete jungle, but strangely I feel quite safe and relaxed here. Seesaw coffee is in Jingan design center and located in the lobby. With the smell of coffee and the lights from the huge windows on the roof, it feels like working in heaven here. My 2nd visit, I was with my laptop working on editing images and posts, I sat for 4 hours, concentrate! That's how a cafe does the magic with the smell and the unique noises that makes you focused! (also how coffitivity works) The coffee here, drunk by the coffee lovers, says they are made with professions and passions. I was a bit disappointed that they don't really sell tea here, but while had a sip of my friends drink, without any sugar and milk, I fall in love with Kanya immediately. (I don't drink coffee, but this one makes me feel good) If you are also a coffee lover, this place also have the coffee seminar occasionally. Please put this cafe into your must-go in Shanghai, believe me, you won't regret it.
