FR\AME: A gastronomic road trip in Paris that is not to be missed
In the heart of Paris, a stone’s throw from the Eiffel tower, Californian brasserie FR\AME takes you on a trip to the American West Coast.
For the décor, interior designer, architect & scenarist Christophe Pillet has created a lively and modern setting, as unique as it is timeless.
In the kitchen, Chef Andrew Wigger, has used his culinary expertise & savoir faire to create innovative Californian dishes influenced by subtle French flavors.
FR\AME was conceived to be an animated space that encourages gatherings with friends and family. Being an open space that merges with its exterior due to its glass walls, this Californian styled restaurant symbolizes freedom as it brings a new dimension to the traditional Parisian brasserie.
With its open kitchen, private room, bar, vinoteca and stunning terrace, FR\AME prides itself on its creativity and invites you to enjoy the wholly unique experience being offered here. Namely, the Californian experience à la française.
Throughout the day, from breakfast to dinner, from tea-time to cocktails, FR\AME offers an inventive and extensive menu. Beyond a simple restaurant, FR\AME is a laidback Franco-Californian brasserie, a space of freedom, embodying a West Coast attitude in a Parisian setting.
A unique space created by Christophe Pillet
Christophe Pillet is one of the rare French designers to enjoy international recognition due to the quality and variety of his creations. Architecture, furniture, product design and artistic direction are only some of the fields explored by him while his name continues to be associated with important brands and projects of great scale.
For FR\AME, Christophe Pillet imagined a space that opens onto Paris, where modernity and comfort come together with a quintessentially Parisian elegance and simplicity.
For this Californian brasserie, the designer focused on a mineral décor inspired by nature. The predominant warm grey tones of the décor are contrasted with colourful pieces that bring it to life. Wood, marble and leather combined with patina and bronze add an enriching touch to this environment.
The result is a timeless space designed by Christophe Pillet.

The Art Gallery new generation YellowKorner opens in Shatin!
When YellowKorner opened its first gallery in Hong Kong in December 2013, the 1st photography label worldwide created a true revolution into the world of Art and photography. Its concept, “Making Art accessible to everyone” is totally new and unique in Asia.
Since then, the company founded in 2006 by Alexandre de Metz and Paul-Antoine Briat never stopped shaking up the local Art scene. Within 6 months, YellowKorner Hong Kong was part of the Affordable Art fair, hosted two exhibitions during the French May Festival, organized several autographs’ sessions with French photographers and opened a pop-up store in PMQ - Hong Kong new creative hub.
Located on the ground floor of HomeSquare, the largest one-stop shopping mall for home furnishing, the new YellowKorner gallery will offer shoppers the missing elements to their perfect home decoration.
To make this possible, YellowKorner created an innovative concept. The idea is to introduce the greatest photographers from all over the world by increasing the number of copies of their work to make it accessible to as many collectors as possible. So, instead of offering 10 prints at HKD 55,000, YellowKorner chooses to publish 1000 at HKD 550.
All YellowKorner photographs are produced by a renowned professional laboratory, numbered and supplied with a certificate of authenticity under the artist's watchful eye. With the artist's consent, the same photograph is available in several formats, each of this format having its own corresponding limit.
All these options make the large selection of photographs fit every style, every tastes and every budget.

Finnair makes possible three weddings in Moomin World
Arguably the most known and adored Finnish icon, next to Santa Claus, the white, hippo-like Moomins have become a worldwide phenomenon through puppet animation and Japanese-style cartoons. In Finland, the Moomins have their own hotel rooms in the Naantali Spa Hotel and The Moomin World theme park in Naantali. They also have their own Moomin Museum in Tampere and numerous gallery and museum exhibitions around the country every year.
Much loved especially in Japan by young and old alike, getting married in Moomin World sounds like a fairytale. And for three couples that wish came true when they participated in Finnair Japan’s Facebook contest. The wedding ceremony was held in summery Moomin World, Naantali and the couples were married by no other than Snufkin. Join their wedding celebrations and feel the love and happiness of their special day.
Moomins creator Tove Jansson would have turned 100 years old this year. To celebrate her memory, Finland will be full of Moomin activities throughout the year that is called “Tove 100”. This includes the Finnish National Gallery Ateneum’s major centenary exhibition that presents Jansson’s impressive career like never seen before. The exhibition will take place from now to 7 September 2014.
