What ? Now

Imagine walking into a room full of building blocks, vivid colours and joyful music. What do you feel? A sense of lightness, perhaps a small tingle of anticipation? Or do you just think: Right, where shall I start with all this?
Maybe just allow your imagination to run wild and use them to build a house? After all, playing isn’t just for children. Play is also a valuable resource in our adult lives, but it’s so easily forgotten among all the pressure and stress. Even the great thinkers knew of the power of play. As Albert Einstein said: “Play is the highest form of research.”
In this issue of THE Stylemate, we look at playful architecture and new designs in Milan that simply bring joy thanks to their creativity. We also visited Palermo to see fashion designer Mattia Piazza, who sparks joy with his work. And on that note: let’s all play a bit more.
