I know that deciding between the two cities is more complicated than expected. I still can't give an answer because I miss the Big Apple in order to decide. But I can always get an idea by French chart Vahram Muratyan that has created a fun “war” between the two most famous cities in the world with colorful graphics but very minimal, just as a sort of short in graphic form that tells the useful things to know about peculiarities of the two famous cities. From food to sports, from icons to lifestyle, adding some stereotype peppered with such irony. How do you see on a saturday night in Paris? What is the female icon of New York? Maccarons or cupcake? In short… which side are you?
The project resulted in a book is called Paris vs New York, a tally of two cities published by Penguin. Until some time ago, waiting for buy the book or visit both cities, We could have an idea of the differences watching the video made by art director Tony Miotto uploaded on Vimeo. Now I think that we can't see it because the video seems been removed, there was some problems with rights and permissions between the author and the videomaker?? Graphic mistery…
