queen máxima’s day in milan ended with a reception in palazzo giureconsulti where she visited masterly – the dutch in milan, led by mayor sala. Dressed entirely in gold, Máxima chose to give the first part of her speech in Italian to strengthen the relationship of creative cooperation between the two countries: “Italian aesthetics and Dutch audacity: together a recipe for success!”.

from the article:

_I make sure that when something has dozed off a little, may it be a brand or a high street, it gets spiced up again.
_this is her specialisation: combine old with new. in 2012 she shook up the german oranienbaum palace by placing dutch design next to pieces from the royal archives.
_that everyone in the dutch design world knows her, is undoubtedly due to her carefully cultivated image.
_for the sixth time this year nicole uniquole curates the dutch design pavilion for the most important furniture fair in the world.
_her house at the hague bezuidenhout, dating from 1904, is decorated like a sample card of dutch design.

the curator, style consultant, design expert, developer of aesthetic strategies understands big, spectacular gestures as well as perfectionist, detailed work that leaves nothing to chance.

text from the article: ‘what do you do when what makes you happy is bringing people together, show the world the most beautiful things, but a worldwide pandemic is holding you back? nicole uniquole, founder of masterly – the dutch in milano,

the dutch pavilion during the salone del mobile accepted it, stood tall and put her focus on what she does best: connect.

a go-getter, someone with a clear vision, are words often used to describe nicole and she is proving it now once again. the day after de decision to postpone the salone del mobile her house is filled with exquisite flowers, she is given chocolates and encouraging messages from “her” designers who were supposed to accompany her to milan. it immediately brings her back to reality: keep your eye on the prize.

With her own motto she searches for what is possible. Her drive is to unite the group, with the conviction that this exactly when they strengthen each other. That must be tangible, to the visitor, the media, the client, the curation and the producer visiting masterly.’

text from the article: ‘milan, moscow, berlin, budapest: curator and exhibition creator nicole uniquole roams the whole of europe for her work. with her company uniquole she leaves behind a trail of wonder and admiration: with each city as a unique décor, she knows how to put dutch design on the map. her specialism? contemporary art and art from the golden age. nicole uniquole’s list of projects is equally impressive. she is the founder and curator of ‘masterly – the dutch pavilion’ that is featured annually during the salone del mobile in milan. as you can read: nicole uniquole is a master in the world of art fairs and exhibitions, and because of that this week she is bazaars woman of the week.’
