In November 2026, the historic Egyptian Museum on Tahrir Square becomes the setting for a conversation across millennia. «Formed by Dialogue» places contemporary works right beside objects from the ancient collection – and asks how ideas, techniques and materials have always travelled between cultures.

Things get interesting in Swiss museums from mid-October onwards. Not because blockbuster exhibitions suddenly open everywhere, but because the program is unusually well-balanced, featuring big names, new perspectives, and some works that aren't seen all the time. From Zurich via Basel to Lausanne: This is our edit for the coming weeks – for a free Sunday afternoon, a trip to Basel or the next November day when there's little reason not to go to a museum anyway. Zurich: Maria

Why we still like the idea of a department store; especially when it feels less like shopping and more like discovery. Copyright: Globus AG / David Biedert In a time when almost everything can be ordered with just a few clicks, there is actually no longer a need for a place where fashion, beauty, design and food come together under one roof. And yet they do exist: those moments when you walk through a department store without a concrete plan and go home with an idea, a new fr

There are clothes that simply work. And then there are those where you immediately realize someone had a vision. At CW Design, individuality is an integral part of the design process. Behind the Zurich-based label CW Design is Cornelia Weckherlin , who translates her own creative vision into fashion. Her collections range from understated elegance to deliberate statements; feminine, confident, and often featuring a detail that only becomes apparent upon closer inspection. In

The fifth Art Basel Paris at the Grand Palais closes two days early. DAPPO reports on the art, the market, the security situation and the early closure prompted by the riots in Paris.

From 22 to 27 May 2027, Team Lesunja with Lisa Lesunja and Beatrice returns to the Rallye des Princesses Richard Mille – once again with Porsche Zentrum Basel at their side.

Paris will once again transform into an art metropolis this week. From October 23 to 25, Art Basel Paris returns to the Grand Palais with more than 200 galleries. Preview Days begin as early as October 21. But while much of the focus is on the big names and institutions, it's particularly worthwhile to venture off the beaten path. Art Basel Art Basel Paris 2026 For DAPPO, we have selected three exhibitions running during Art Basel week that show Paris from a slightly differen

Overwater villas on stilts, house reefs off the terrace, art beneath the palms: five five-star resorts in the Maldives, led by Furaveri in Raa Atoll.

Autumn scents by 4711: Echt Kölnisch Wasser, Lime & Nutmeg, White Peach & Coriander and Jasmine, plus a look at the bottles.

Candlelight, curated design and a festive brunch: on 6 December 2026, the Sämichlaus Design Market at my winetime Zurich invites you to discover. Free entry.

Cairo is not a city you simply visit. You let yourself be drawn into it. Between the pyramids at the edge of the desert, thousand-year-old minarets and the cafés of Zamalek lie only a few kilometres – and yet five thousand years. If you travel in autumn, you see the city in its most beautiful light.

Autumn home ideas: calm classics in leather, wood and black, and colour accents in red, orange, green and rose.

Arriving in Portals Nous, the first thing you see is white: a curved façade above the bay, light on smooth surfaces and the sea beyond. The Donna Portals is about fifteen minutes from Palma, close to the Puerto Portals marina, with its own access to the beach. Formerly the Iberostar Grand Portals Nous, the hotel reopened under its new name in March 2024. Penthouse Panorama Suite overlooking the bay of Portals Nous.

What to discover from tomorrow From September 17 to 27, Zurich once again becomes a citywide stage for design. Now in its fifth edition, Zurich Design Weeks brings eleven days of exhibitions, installations, talks, workshops and walks to more than 40 locations across the city. This year’s theme, OUT OF…, invites designers and visitors to step outside familiar contexts and rethink materials, spaces and ideas. Much of the programme is free and open to the public. DAPPO’s selecti

There are galleries that exhibit art. And then there are places that change the way we see. Galerie 94 in Baden belongs firmly to the latter. Housed within the former Merker shipping building, the gallery combines industrial architecture with photographic art in a way that feels both understated and compelling. Works that invite reflection rather than demand attention. Behind the gallery is Sascha Laue, a long-standing advocate for photography. Having already shaped the Swiss

Why more than 50 covers were created for DAPPO, eye movements were analysed and readers were asked for their views. A magazine cover often decides within seconds whether we pick up a magazine at all. But what really catches our eye? And why do some covers appear high-quality, authentic and trustworthy, while others, despite being eye-catching, fail to convince? These questions were explored in my thesis for the Multimedia Production programme at the University of Applied Scie

Few colors in the Fall/Winter 2026 season appear as elegant and modern as aubergine. This deep hue, ranging from violet and burgundy to dark brown, lends a special depth to any look. Instead of making a bold statement, aubergine emphasizes subtle sophistication and underscores individuality with a quiet confidence. The trendy color aubergine looks particularly harmonious when combined with yellow gold, platinum, or white diamonds. Gemstones such as topaz and various tourmalin

Since Eva’s passing, ADELE has been alone. Yet the sense of “we” remains unmistakably present. It lives on in every object, every photograph, every carefully preserved fragment of a shared artistic life. I meet ADELE in her apartment and studio in Berlin. The rooms feel like a living archive, filled with colour, memories, and artistic presence. Everywhere there are traces of a life devoted to a radical vision of identity, visibility, and art. Together, EVA & ADELE created far
