sisterMAG 31 – Empire Violet and Melancholia – Section 1

A WEEKEND WITH CANON AND SISTERMAG ON FEHMARN

The wind blows into the colourful fabric, fills it with air, and makes it rise into the sky. The kites hang like large, colourful bats over the horizon, bound to the sea by a few thin ropes.

About

With the first days of fall approaching, we also bring you the first section of our new sisterMAG issue. Letting go of summer doesn't come easy for us this year, which you can also see in the title of this section »Empire Violet and Melancholia«. You can read about melancholia in film, about lonely landscapes in rural America and are listening to a playlist, dedicated to melancholic feelings. Moreover, we look back at the past - at empire dresses and famous, historic dandies. We also share a memory of the near past - this summer - with a story about the Kitesurf World Cup on Fehmarn that we got to visit with our partner, Canon. And of course, you can also find new DIY tutorials and interior inspirations.
