Interesting design show “Object” in Rotterdam. Found the designs featured to be more organic in nature, which makes sense as this is curated show, not a mass market event. Felt like a cross between an art opening & trade fair in NYC.
However, cannot say I love Rotterdam, even with mild temps & blue skies. The city suffered near total destruction May 1940 by Germans. So very much post war rebuilding , I think personally like the historic charm of European cities.
