university in milan. she said you can do anything you just have to be confident in your ideas and have the desire to implement them. company be modular the large units are made up of small individual elements which can be taken apart at will. the company allows you to divide rooms up a new way. in the one nine hundred sixty s. the company billy was something totally new a real innovation. but living spaces were getting smaller and more people were living alone. the company believe were very easy to rearrange to suit any atmosphere. that explains the success they enjoy right up to the present day.

cartel has a flagship store in london. to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary the company invited twenty one renowned designers from all over the world to develop their unique take on the original. here's what fran hickman came up with. very much. and came from a house that we want to try to express the spirit of the house it's just. quite. joyful sixty. design was inspired by the american expressionist painter jackson pollock. is delighted by the multitude of ideas for the anniversary exhibition. spanish

the exhibition because so between cubism and classicism nine hundred fifteen to nine hundred twenty five opened in rome on friday this show at the school. is being held to mark the one hundredth anniversary of public because those trip to italy. here he created the sets where the ballet rose and met his first wife older he was a dancer. because so between cubism and classicism runs until january. so much pressure on artists of all kinds to stand out from the crowd nowadays and do something new when it comes to music we've seen several electronic artists pair up with classical musicians to produce a modern day interpretation of classical music the ground brothers are one of these bands modern slant on the piano by polling it to pieces quite literally.

the ground brothers go to the very heart of their instrument they open up the piano as if they're about to perform surgery on it they attach arm bars and belts and add little hammers they've made themselves to strike in places where piano hammers were never intended to. you know that's what produces the beat in our songs that sound that you might compare to us now drum in an electronic musical beat music. it just provides a beat or percussive beat purpose in fact. it was plays the piano well look us full the regulates and digitally distorts the analog sounds created by the special hamis. that seems fitting at a time when the piano is enjoying a renaissance in electronic music. is what i want to leave the lying

under the piano and knocking on it all plucking at strings those unnaturally things that others have already done and we try to do the same in our own way with our own techniques we use the piano as a huge construction kit a kind of play toy we do treat it with respect but yet somehow not with too much reverence and it's not so much off with those of us or. whether the pianos boundaries the grand brothers are determined to push them at the same time they've placed restrictions on themselves every sound in the music must be produced by the piano somehow. but which is about them isn't all that smart because this whole range of possibilities i see before me sometimes just leaves me feeling helpless today computers allow you to do simply everything. so for me it's a kind of inspiration to really concentrate on one thing and see what i can get out

of it. must mean others also and. sometimes the grand brothers just play the piano like everyone else. well almost. now how many times do you walk past statues in your home cities and not even see them quite frequently i imagine well a belgian artist's latest project is designed to make people look at the statues once again he does this with the help of some kind of full flower and i think this coming image will explain things a little bit. classical statues are getting a modern update a crown of colorful flowers to decorate a normally band stone head. for around brass or stone and bronze figures or sporting bouquets of beautiful blooms around their heads.

belgium's for mockingly of all the second even got a bright new bed. the project is the brainchild of belgian floral artist. some find it funny that i put flowers on someone else's work others downright disrespectful but my interest stems from a romantic inclination to hide the statue and allow it to be rediscovered at the same time. even brussels most famous statue the mannequin paris has been given a flowering. figure was created by sculptor as your own do kanwar in sixteen nineteen. tourists seem to like the new look. the first time i came here i found the statue a bit small i expected it to be bigger so i was a bit disappointed. but now that i'm seeing it for the second time it's very cute.

with these new decorations made by the artist i have to say it's very pretty. by finding an appropriate statue before he begins any work he needs permission from the local authorities. he uses wire mesh to create a mold which he will then attach the flowers to. in his studio helps the mash to hold it. and it's time to get really creative he arranges his chosen flowers to create made to measure for each statue. it's a slow process each flower takes ten hours. a complete. farm ottar hopes his works will breathe new life into the serious often forgotten statues in the city's parks and make people smile when they see them. because over the. course some friends

came to visit me from abroad from france and vietnam and they wanted to know who the statues were of it and i didn't know what to say. that's when i started to take an interest in them and eventually to engage with them and make them more colorful through my flowers persisted martin and you have a different vantage not only for the tourists locals appreciate the change and begin to see these familiar monuments in a new light. very much appreciate this initiative mainly because it draws attention to statues that have been a bit forgotten in the parks of brussels to give them a new color that we've never seen. they remind people of their presence. i find that sculpture over there particularly lively. each vowel is unique and in place on the statue until the blossoms went.

back in the fifty's and sixty's before the invention of low cost airlines londoners used to holiday on the south east coast of britain margate was one of the many thriving seaside towns but with the eighty's recession as well the town took an even bigger hit and in a bid to improve things a big brand shopping outlet opened up but only three people away from the town and made the quaint little high street feel even more like a ghost town a few years on and the increasing house prices in london have helped make it an attractive coastal town once again. a sunny day out in margate for any florio and the freedman every day is like a beachside olive day but you recently joined the fifty eight thousand residents of this coastal resort in southeast england they've opened an outlet of their fashion and furniture business here. i think it's really easy going place i find. i get

a little bit older becomes very stressful. it takes me an hour to drive into work where is he. will take me five minutes to walk to work people are just more relaxed it's just becoming so expensive i mean the business was doing well but i just couldn't afford to make ends meet. the end of the month and i had no spare money to go out with my friends and really enjoy what london has to offer. as london becomes a victim of its own success small towns reap the benefits since the turner gallery opened in margate in twenty eleven it's become a destination for artists and other creative types we have really been the catalyst for the regeneration of market but there are a whole raft of other factors i think staycation spritz in spending more time on holiday in the u.k. hopefully europeans are still coming to the u.k. . back in two thousand was far from being a people magnet the financial crisis struck the seaside resort particularly hard

business is closed the mood was grim since then property agents have been counting their blessings in the past few years the prices for houses have gone up by twenty five percent on average and they're still selling like hotcakes. there's been a massive increase in young professional people coming down from london purchasing properties because of their prices which are getting on for half the price that they would expect to pay him if you know you could finally buy your own home here even down here. is just so lovely having my no sanctuary and so crisis town center and you know. to the seaside what more could you wish. and if she does get sick london is just ninety minutes away by train. fish and chips is the most traditional british seaside. and at the moment we're running
