WORD FROM THE EDITORIn the month that leads us in the summer period, we decided to gladden you with topics inspired by the sun… Finally, we’ve started using open spaces of our homes, balconies, terraces, gardens, so if you want to renew them with some new furniture, plants or emphasize some parts with interesting lighting, in this issue you will certainly find interesting examples. Preparations for the sea have started, and that’s why we are presenting swimsuits for this season… take a look! If you still haven’t decided where to spend your vacation days, a Spanish pearl, an island of Mallorca is waiting for you! If you dream about a luxurious villa, this time we are taking you to Japan. Enjoy the wonderful view of the ocean, and many other interesting topics in this issue of Mini STUDIO magazine…

IN TOUCHWITH NATURE…

Back in ancient Egypt during the reign of Queen Hatshepsut 1500 BC, gardeners have used flowerpots of clay, to transfer trees that

produce myrrh – type of fragrant Arabic gum. Today, the flowerpots are also used in the interior and exterior, as a decorative addition to

flowers and small trees, although in larger areas bigger flowerpots can be seen, with trees of a remarkable largeness.

Unusual design of a wooden bench, with small circular gaps from which small timber plants rise,

may find its place in a private garden and in public places. The gloss of fiberglass pots and a

mate wood form a beautiful contrast. The term “romeo and Juliet” refers to two trees that are

connected, and yet so far away that they cannot touch, just as romeo and Juliet couldn’t be

together or live without each other.

og Belgian designer Dirk Wynants – alea, large pot with a cubic shape solves this problem. It

offers the perfect solution because it has a frame with wheels which are hidden under the lining of

fiberglass pot. Scrolling is done by simply raising the lining of fiberglass and rotating by 45°, in order

to release the wheels. It is available in two sizes (52x52cm i 90x90cm) and five colors (white, black,

MALLORCA TOURIST

PEARL OF EUROPE

Classifying Mediterranean Islands to the list of the most attractive ones for vacation, every year, the

biggest Spanish island, Mallorca, is at the top of the list of tourist “pearls”. Many people say that when

you think of summer, you should think of Mallorca, because of its fascinating nature, clear blue sea, beautiful sandy beaches, hidden lagoons along

the 554km long coastline, palm trees, mountain ranges, idyllic villages with local markets, but also a

rich nightlife. All these things are the reason why this island is so popular, for trendsetters, as well as for

those who want a quality holiday.

Mallorca is an island that will best describe the spirit of

Spain and the casual way of life for inhabitants of this
