EXPLORING THE STREETS OF TURIN./

THESE DAYS, HE WORKS FOR A WORLDWIDE SPORTS COMPANY, BUT HIS SPARE TIME IS STILL SPENT AMONG PICTURES, MOVIES, BOOKS + JAZZ - + HE OFTEN HAS HIS CAMERA IN HIS HAND./
HE STARTED OUT TAKING LANDSCAPES + URBAN ARCHITECTURE, BUT THE POWER OF STREET PHOTOGRAPHY SOON WON HIM OVER: "I LEARNED HOW TO GET LOST IN THE STREETS + IN THE CROWDS, DURING MY NUMEROUS TRAVELS AROUND EUROPE." - "PEOPLE + STREETS HAVE A UNIQUE WAY OF TELLING STORIES," HE EXPLAINS. "THEY OFFER EXTRAORDINARY MOMENTS IN WHICH IT IS POSSIBLE TO CAPTURE ALL THE VOICES OF THE WORLD."/
HERE ARE SOME OF DOMENICO'S FAVOURITE PLACES IN HIS HOME CITY OF TURIN...
//
QUADRILATERO ROMANO
"I love getting lost in the labyrinthine streets of this village, built by the Romans centuries ago. In its narrow streets there are typical clubs, intimate + gourmet restaurants, all types of cuisine, tea rooms, pubs + soft lights everywhere."
CINEMA MASSIMO
"Cinema Massimo is one of the symbolic places of the city with the Cinema Museum. Each year it hosts the Turin Film Festival , one of the most important film festivals in Italy. Throughout the year, it offers a vast calendar of events + both past + contemporary film programming."
JAZZ CLUB
"A unique meeting place for jazz lovers, this place turns into a delicious restaurant. It's located in Valdo Fusi square, which also houses an extraordinary original brewery called 'Open Baladin'."
