The landscapes, the zest for life, the calm blending with chaos are what struck me the most during my journey in Asia. With this project, the idea is to capture this soothing and positive atmosphere in our puzzles, and what better way to achieve that than by enlisting the help of local artists?
The Cities Edition is the result of this reflection. We offer several drops each year, featuring different cities in Asia, to make you feel the essence of each place through a unique visual.
For each puzzle, we collaborate with a local artist, who has carte blanche to express their personal vision, their perception of their city. We want each puzzle to be a true work of art, reflecting the soul and energy of the city as perceived by someone who knows it best.
The Cities Edition !
The first city in this collection is also where my adventure began, Bangkok! The capital of the Land of Smiles and known for its contagious energy and fascinating blend of tradition and modernity, Bangkok is a city where the old and the new coexist (or stack up) harmoniously. The chaotic yet enchanting atmosphere of Bangkok made me fall in love with this city.
