| Superheroes:
Fashion & Fantasy

Like Clark Kent’s nerdiness or Bruce Wayne’s

City: Spain (Part 1 of 2)
TAXI visits Spain (July 2008)
Speak of Spain, and a thousand splintered kaleidoscopic
images immediately come to mind. Like some of
Gaudi’s perennial classics that fascinate,
inspire and shock all at the same time, the
appeal that Spain’s design scene brings
to the world is multifaceted and unique in every
dimension.

With Thailand being one of the few countries

its crown jewel Bangkok has evolved to become
a fascinating melting pot of cultures, combining
traditional art, design and architecture which
in itself is an exquisite blend of the old and
new.

Mention Holland and a few images come to mind:
tulips, windmills, coffeeshops, red light district,
same-sex marriages and so on. To clear the air,

not refer to the entire country.
