Time to go to bed
10 January 2019
As much as you'd like to, you'd never get a medal for "I don't speak before my first cup of coffee" or "I've not slept enough". Actually, in the epidemics of insufficient sleep (a problem for nearly every second person), the only people who win are the ones who know how important sleep is - and why they need to focus on getting it. Between podcasts that get you to sleep, gently spraying lavender on your pillow in order to relax, and blue light filters for your phone, do you know which of those will actually work? Time to get serious about going to bed. - .

If something sounds extreme to you, it's probably an everyday thing for the people we'll meet at the Days of the Challenges forum. There'll be live presentations, workshops and film screenings on themes like climbing, cycling, windsurfing and more. -

This fall's Ratio gives the microphone to topics, which cover Earth, Space, insects and even things we thought for a fantasy fairytale not long ago. We are gaining knowledge from scientists mainly in english and after that we are celabrating with an afterparty. -

The things of life: Folch Studio

In their office with huge windows in Barcelona for a moment it seems like they have everything: both powerful design projects and enough time for surfing and innocent side entertainment like the erotic magazine Odiseo. -

High-energy buddies

If you look them sideways, the phones are only getting thinner - and the battery suffers from this diet. If you'd like to say "I'm at 1%, be quick" less often, we try out a few smart ways to give some juice to your device. -
Under world

"Dark, and dusty, and dirty, and scary". Kind of paradoxical that this is a line out of a song with the name of Sofia, my love, no? -
Graf Ignatiev - igniting public opinion

One would hope that after the enormous mishap when the new renovation of Dondukov Blvd was uncovered, the municipality would be more careful with renovations - but alas. -
Frederik and Sophia in Sofia
4 October 2018
text and photos Sevda Semer
He’s from Denmark, she’s from Brazil, and it shows in their temperatment and style. He’ll say hello with a handshake, she – with a cup of warm mate (a traditional tea and ritual that she brought from home). Together, they find perfect balance in their live and in a mutual business by the name of Homs Arthaus: a brand for male jumpsuits, in which Sophia Dias is a designer and an illustrator, and Frederik Vincent – the mind for business (and a model of the brand, at least for our photo today). While they’re putting up and installation in Aether by the principle of "show – don’t tell" about the idea behind their new collection, we ask who’s the kind of guy who’d find himself in a floral jumpsuit, how did they chose to live and work in Sofia, and why expressive gestures can be a reminder of home. -

Park ≠ Parking
30 August 2018
text Nikola Shahpazov photos Natalia Ivanova
We're skeptical about every new decision of the Sofia Municipality and you can hardly blame us. We admit, however, that it sometimes surprises us with adequate actions, the only criticism for which we have is that they could have been taken 10 years ago. Currently, we're talking about the parking space around the National staduim which is finally being cleared out, shrunk and made paid. -

The endless conversation about time
19 July 2018
An hour forward or an hour back did we turn the clock tomorrow? We are sure that you hear this question twice a year, but now we need to think about it third time - till August 16, the European Commission asks how much we like Daylight Saving Time. Vote here: bit.ly/2J0d6Ig -

If the Finals with 22 on the field still keep you going, maybe it's a good idea to change the pitch. Here's a suggestion: Тhe World Footbag Championships runs from 22 to 28 July in Sofia hall in Borisova Garden so don't miss it. -
The House of Contention
5 July 2018
This is how the new thorn in the eyes of the conversations about our urban environment look like. We like it. Not because it was built on time, the concrete at its base is perfect or is the ideal sculpture we want to see in the garden next to the Palace. The Bronze House of Plamen Deyanofff is not all that. But it is a lion's jump over the recent traditional outbursts around the European presidency (yes, we're talking about the lion in front the National Palace of Culture). And in fact, it fulfills the main task of contemporary art - to burn up controversy and wake us up to think. -

A Crazy Race

Getting through life one sip at a time is sweater than rushing through it 10 shots at once. If you agree, than we have a fantastic news for you: from May 14 do May 20 ten bars in the city are serving this exactly - slow and epic emotions in cocktail glasses, mixed with premier league liquor in World Class Cocktail Week.
