Kolkata’s hidden oasis
Park Street Cemetery
South Park Street Cemetery was among the earliest non-ecclesiastical cemeteries in the world and, in the nineteenth century, likely the largest Christian burial ground outside Europe and the Americas. Opened in 1767, the site is today enclosed by a brick wall that shelters an eclectic assemblage of graves, mausolea, and dense tropical vegetation, set apart from the surrounding bustle of Kolkata.

Est. 1506
Gmunden, a small town situated in Austria on the shores of Lake Traunsee, is recognised as an important centre of ceramic production. This tradition is visibly embedded within the townscape: ceramic reliefs and typographic elements appear throughout the streets, forming subtle yet characteristic details that attest to a long-standing artisanal practice.
