In a small suburb of Stuttgart there is a shop with particularly clever gifts - a place for small and big dreams. We present: the Pfiffikus shop. Here you will find everything your heart desires: a variety of home and gift ideas, fashion accessories, jewelry, stationery, tableware, children's clothing, children's toys and much more.
Soon we’ll be busy painting eggs, hiding nests and eating chocolate bunnies again!
Spring is finally making its way through the grey of last winter. The first flowers will soon shoot out of the ground, the trees will start to bloom, the sun will appear more often and the temperatures will rise. To help the season and its arrival along a little, we want to inspire you with a few very special photographic mood makers for the upcoming colorful flowers and blossoms. To get you in the mood for spring as much as we are, we have put together a few spring pictures for you here.
We present: Catapult. A very special shop in the trendy district of Dresden-Neustadt in one of the most beautiful cities in Germany. Here you will find wonderful gift ideas that you won't find anywhere else. The special thing: unusual and creative gifts for men.
Today is International Mother Language Day, which was launched by UNESCO in 2000. A wonderful opportunity to take a look around our international PICKMOTION team and get to know our colleagues' native languages a little better.
The magic of Christmas has vanished, as has the (barely existent) New Year's Eve glamour. Now there are still a handful of cold, grey days ahead of us. Until life finally becomes more colourful again, we'll just think warm thoughts. And there is light at the end of the tunnel: Valentine's Day on February 14th marks the start of the signs of spring, so to speak!
We are approaching the end of the winter trade fair marathon and have just finished Paperworld, while Ambiente is still ahead of us. Both in Frankfurt, the Manhattan of Germany, also affectionately known as Mainhattan. This city is a cultural hotspot, a hub for modern architecture and also the financial centre of Europe. The city itself is not a city of a million, but it is still one of the global players in urbanism. Would you like to pay the city a visit? Then let our #awalkthrough inspire you to see more than just the skyline.
Oh Paris - a city more beautiful than any love story. The French capital is one of the most important cities in Europe and one of the world's leading centers for art, fashion, gastronomy and culture. The cityscape is characterized by 19th century architecture, wide boulevards, the Seine and of course sights such as the Eiffel Tower. From the historical monuments to the exquisite cuisine, the city is simply an incomparable travel destination. With so many attractions, it's easy to lose track of time and spend an eternity in Paris.
We have just come back from Nordstil and met the manager of one of our sales outlets there. Since we are so enthusiastic about the shop, we naturally don't want to keep this place full of happy moments in northern Bremen from you.
Hamburg - for us the second most beautiful city in the world - is something very special. One of the largest ports in Europe, Hanseatic culture and history, a good pinch of humor, North German serenity and now and again a bit of crappy weather. The city is bursting with multicultural hotspots and special features such as the Reeperbahn or the Schanzenviertel. Art, music and creativity can be found on almost every corner and the Alstersee is one of the most beautiful city lakes in the world. We are here again because we are at the Nordstil. Come by, visit us at the exhibition stand and let our #awalkthrough inspire you for your own walk through the city.
