SHOP



I am busy building a webshop, but you know good things take time...

In the meantime my products are only available on craft markets in the Zuerich area or on special request. If you like one of my products you are very welcome to send me an email and I am sure we can find a way how you get it!


This year diamantgrau will attend Heiliger Bimbam! Look here for more info! 

OH PARIS!

























I had a wonderful weekend in Paris with lots of walks around the city. The reason why I went there was the Rise Against concert, I really wanted to see them live, because somehow I didn't manage to see them before. So it was time to do that and going to Paris is always nice, especially the museums are awesome there.
We arrived on Thursday evening in Paris and met Nina, we lived in her lovely Parisian studio in the 6th floor (of course without elevator) and just electrical heating (I am so happy that I now live in a warm and cozy place, because this reminded me so much of my flat in Vienna, which was super nice but always somehow cold in winter).
Friday we went to the Rodin Museum. Although I am not a big fan of modern sculptures (I think the Greeks did it best!) I was very impressed by his art. Also the palais where the museum is hosted is quite nice, surrounded by a beautiful garden in the middle of the city. Afterwards I treated myself with a little shopping and then it was time for Rise Aganist. I loved the venue Bataclan a lot, it was very club like with a balcony, where I could really enjoy the show.
Saturday started well with an french breakfast at our place. The location was super convinient, just 6 flights of stairs down and then you have been surrounded by the best bakery, butchers and cheese shops.
For dinner we wanted to go to Le Relais de l'Entrecôte but I was very crowded and had a really long cue so we decided to go to the Maison de la truffe. It was a really perfect dinner, but I don't unterstand the fuss about the truffle at all. Afterwards it was show time for us at the Crazy Horse. We helped ourselves with a bottle of champagne through the show and the also were very surprised to see Conchita Wurst perform there.
Sunday started as expected late for us with fuzzy heads from too many drinks, but nevermind we had lots of fun. We still managed to get ourselves to Centre Pompidou to see the Marcel Duchamp exhibition. I was always a big fan of his work and it was really cool to see so much of his artwork altogether. A real enjoyment for me! Also there was a retrospective of Frank Ghery, which a I also had to take a look at.
The weekend was gone so fast like the TGV train that brought as back to Zurich, but I still have this nice mood.

I WANT THIS



Look what I found! A wonderful concrete bench. The Designer is Anna Badur, go check her work out, she has some amazing stuff!

A TRIP TO BREGENZ








On Saturday I took a trip to Bregenz, I have never been there before. The lake is so amazing, it almost looks like the sea. Ah... I enjoyed it so much. It was all sunshine and relaxing and of course awesome architecture. Especially the new Vorarlberg Museum is fantastic. They sure know how to built. Also a must see as an architectural tourist is the Festspielhaus. Before heading home again we went up to the Pfänder, the view was so spectacular especially with this lovely autumn colors. I will come back for sure!

LA SERENISSIMA, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!













Like the last years I went to Venice for my birthday, but this year was very special because my best friend and her boyfriend came to join us. It was their first time in Venice and we had so much fun, laughs, drinks and good food. We went for our celebrations (it was her birthday too!) to my favorite restaurant in town Il Paradiso Perduto in Cannaregio.
I hope we soon enjoy another awesome weekend together!

BAM!

After experimenting with paper und acrylic molds I now tried out 3D printed ones. Look, it turned out great!

CRAZY COLORS IN MY GARDEN







Look at all the beauty my garden. Although I didn't spend so much time in my garden as i wished it turned into a colorful playground for bees. In autumn the best colors show up, just great. I love this season so much. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do at the moment.

BACK TO WORK

After some weeks of not working on my concrete stuff I am so happy to be back at work in my atelier. Look what I found! I didn't remember leaving so much beauty.

ATELIER


So this was my mini atelier at my home for a very long time, but as my ideas got bigger it got too small. Today it's still in use as a mini photo studio and I also use it for my screen printing.

Nowadays my atelier is in a very nice place called Basislager. I like it there so much because there are so many creative people around. There is also a great bar called Transit that I really like a lot.

Sorry but I didn't have the time (and muse to clean up) and make nice pictures of the new atelier, but maybe someday...

I plan to make weekly meetings there with friends and interested persons to chat, craft and have fun. Updates will follow!



A TRIP TO SWISSNEYLAND




















As most of you know I am living in Switzerland for more than three years now, but I never enjoyed a holiday here. But I let convince myself for a weekend trip to what I call swissneyland. We went to Zermatt to see the Matterhorn or as I prefer to call it the Monte Cervino. Look at the pics, mother nature is amazing! On Sundaday we went on to Leukerbad to see the famous Schafabzug. I got a cuteness overdose and didn't want to leave.

AMAZING SKY






Ibiza is such a wonderful place, I didn't expect that beautiful landscape and nature at all and the sky went crazy evening. Look at these colors! I really enjoyed being there a lot.
