Bauhaus apartment

ustamagazyn_admin
As you ascend the maroon, unique terrazzo staircase, you have the impression that you are stepping back to the turn of the 20/30s, a period full of energy when the Bauhaus spirit was taking over Europe and Warsaw was called the Paris of the North. The "Bauhaus" apartments are located in the Functional House at the intersection of Jakubowska and Estońska streets. The building is a great example of functionalism. The furnishings of the apartment is the result of several years of searching for an appropriate form of interior design for the House. The owners were inspired by the vision of what apartments could have looked like at that time. Original, auction-searched, meticulously restored furniture, designed and made in the spirit of Bauhaus ideas, give the place a unique character.

Irini’s triple life

ustamagazyn_admin
How many incarnations can one person have? How many adventures to experience? Irini Karayannopoulou, Greek painter, argues that the more the better. She makes up biographies of herself, how a pirate appropriates adventures and works other artists, rebelling against the commercial use of the female body and image. And it is there one of the most enthusiastic, joyful people we know. We invite you to a meeting with the Greek geyser of fantasy and optimism. We interviewed us in March 2021, but now the Greek artist is opening two exhibitions in Warsaw during the Warsaw Gallery Weekend.

ONE IS INFINITY

ustamagazyn_admin
There is no one ideal femininity. There is no such thing as singular identity. There are no clothes for just one occasion. And no clothes fit everybody in the same way. FW2021/22 collection by Acephala is an ode to individual style and idiosyncratic expression. Living in the world of overproduction and constant temporality, we challenged ourselves to create clothes that could fit in many different closets and stay in those closets for longer than just one season. The collection is a set of garments that are minimalistic and essential yet with a twist that makes them unique - be it either construction, pattern, fabric or detailing.

GUIDE TO WARSAW

ustamagazyn_admin
Since the first issue of USTA Magazine, we published 21 guides to various cities, in Poland and abroad. We started with a guide to Berlin in the first issue, followed by a guide To Poznan in number two. Still, we have never prepared a guide to Warsaw and we feel we owe the city we know best a proper vademecum. The problem was whom should we include in our selection from among the places we have known inside out and which we have been with from their openings and throughout their complex histories. Warsaw is certainly a pioneer of gastronomy in Poland. How to choose from hundreds or thousands of bistros, bars, restaurants, cafes and top art spots? It took our team several weeks of vivid discussions to come up with the final list of candidates.

Made to be in harmony with nature Aurum Bloom jewellery is manufactured in Poland with exceptional high quality. Each piece is made from recycled 18k gold. In a mesmerizing play with light and shadow, the irresistible forms are revealed through a captivating design. In our “Tear” collection we focus on how gold reflects light in each tear and how it feels in your hands. The inspiration for the “Sunday” cross shape was the wax dripping down the candle in the Church. Each piece reflects light perfectly. Starting with a simple idea, Aurum Bloom was reimagined through experimenting and an understanding of how our jewellery should look and feel like.

Souvenirs from the Seaside

ustamagazyn_admin
Fridge magnets, whistling seagulls, seashell caskets or bracelets with burnt letters with your name – this sort of images pop up in my head when I think of the “souvenirs from the seaside”. It turns out that luckily, one can see the light at the end of this camp tunnel. “Zatoka –  autorskie pamiątki” (Eng. “The Bay – Original Souvenirs”) is an initiative launched by Fundacja Palma. The organisers invited a group of artists from the Tri-city to design souvenirs from the seaside. Finally, you can bring something from your holidays that won’t feel awkward!

Gluten Heaven in Żoliborz

ustamagazyn_admin
When Monika Walecka bought a family apartment in the Warsaw district of Żoliborz, she started dreaming of opening a local bakery where she would bake bread for her neighbours. She found her place on the ground floor a modernist 4th Warsaw Colony building from 1930. One of the neighbours, Maurycy Gomulicki who lives in the same building, designed a logo for the bakery – a mermaid holding a baguette. This is how "Cała W Mące" (Eng. “Flour-covered”) was born, a bakery that stole the hearts of many people of Warsaw, not only Monika’s neighbours.
