Brought to you by Viction:ary, CITIX60 is the locals' guide to some of
the world's most renowned design hubs - cities that lead the world in
creative output. Curated by a select group of artists, designers, chefs,
architects, musicians, photographers and filmmakers that call each city
home, these books provide an insider's look at the hidden gems that
make a trip memorable. Museums, notable architecture and sculpture,
cultural icons, public events and more—every necessity is covered, along
with up-to-date recommendations on the hottest accommodations, eateries
and shops, each imbued with a city's distinctive flair. A handy section
on travel tips includes basic information on getting around, as well as
on unusual tours to consider and recurring festivals to be aware of to

travel and a blank section at the back with lined, gridded and blank
pages allows for note taking and sketching. Beautiful photographs
throughout set the tone and provide a sense of the aesthetic appeal of
each venue. In addition, the dust jacket for each volume unfolds to
