at a time when politics and economics dominate gloomy news, just as the weather, it was our duty to try to make your everyday life more “sparkly”. to do this, we decided to pursue an approach which has started nearly 10 years ago: following your desire to escape and adventure!

therefore, this is why this new magazine sweeps the world of luxury and always aims to bring your relevant “lifestyle” informa-tion and new privileges. every seasons, we will select the new loca-tions and future trend addresses, essential artistic and cultural events, destinations and activities not to be missed. all of those, punctuated by fashion and luxury accessories photographed for the occasion. leaving the spotlight to the visuals, it is mainly through the image we try to make ourselves heard and leave you the opportunity to contemplate, in silence, the beauty of places and products highlighted. a light in which still shines the icon of glamour and charm, marilyn monroe, 50 years after her death, to whom this first issue could not help but pay tribute.

wishing you to have as fun to browse through this magazine as us to create it and to make you discover it.

have a nice reading.

Wishing to cover the most relevant fields of luxury and art, UUU is proud to announce its partnership with the most original and successful publishing house of the international market, taschen.

the famous brand, founded in the early 80’s by benedikt taschen in Cologne and present everywhere throughout the world, wants to confirm, alongside UUU and its members, its reputation as publisher of art books to excellent price/quality ratio.

In 1999, taschen entered a new era in publishing some limited editions. The first one was Helmut Newton’s Sumo. since then, taschen continues to enrich the world of art with new limited edi-tions. Celebrated in all magazines and the muse of the Cannes fes-tival 2012, thanks to the movie My Week With Marilyn, that’s why, taschen has decided to pay tribute to her, eternal, sexy and glam-orous icon of the cinema, with the publication of the book: Mary-lin & Me, A Memoir in Words and Photographs, by the famous photographer lawrence schiller.

through more than one hundred photographs – over two thirds of which have never or rarely been published – lawrence schiller, one of the last to have immortalized the artist and whose career have been given a big break by marilyn monroe, tells us

‘uuu’ brIngs Itself up to date…

with tact, humor and compassion, the intimacy of the american actress during shooting of something’s got to give.

“you’re already famous, now you’re going to make me famous” that is what photographer lawrence schiller said to marilyn mon-roe when they discussed about the photos he was taking of her. Marilyn & Me is an intimate story of an alive legend before her fall and a young photographer on his way to the top. schiller’s origi-nal text and extraordinary photographs take us back to that time and to the surprising connection that allowed the great marilyn to bond with a kid from brooklyn, a kid with a lot of ambition but very little experience. the result is a real portrait that captures the star in the midst of her final struggle.

advantage from your conciergethanks to the partnership with the publishing house taschen, uuu concierge allows its members to get in preview all limited editions published by the german publisher. and to formalized this partnership in may, month of cinema and glamour, uuu and taschen offer you to pre-book, before anyone else’s, the new book, Marylin & Me, A Memoir in Words and Photographs, published a few thousand copies only.
