Cities

Seen from the old port, the bonne mère overlooks the sailboats, pointy and other boats that cross its waters. Marseilles reveals itself in all its splendor, under the pen of Paolo Mariotti, with the magnificent pink and yellow facades of the new quay, and the tangle of heterogeneous buildings, as far as Notre Dame de la Garde. From the top of her hill, she watches over the bay. For centuries, the survivors of storms or shipwrecks have covered it with ex-votos for its gracious protection.

Dreaming of a pool, a memory of Palm Springs, under the sun, under the long palm trees, in the heart of the desert, a strange flower on the surface of the pool. Monsieur Z pays tribute to architecture, painting and diving.

The Corsican coastline is adorned with towers dating from the Genoese occupation in the 16th and 17th centuries, the Albo Tower and the Agnello Tower being the two most emblematic ones. For Monsieur Z, they blend into the landscape and flora of a peaceful cove.

Courchevel, the chic paradise, clash of landscapes and cultures. From the bell tower to the helicopter, Monsieur Z makes the ridges’ lines rhyme with the dog's leash.

A breathtaking view of a fortress that is both secret and protective: here is Monaco in the eye of Mr. Z. The designer from the Var region of France inscribes the principality in a luxuriant vegetation, like a peaceful village. But its majestic rock imposes its verticality, golden of sun, dominating its port and the sea wave.
