Six Senses to get a taste of city life by debuting in the US, at NYC

BUBEN&ZORWEG creates Bespoke Line

Six Senses Resorts & Spas have a brand identity that instantly takes us to idyllic, serene little hideaway paradise spots. The brand of luxury hotels has taken us into nooks and corners of the earth that we could never fathom existed – “in settings with azure waters, UNESCO heritage listings and lush rainforests”. From rare woods and leather to inbuilt sound systems, BUBEN&ZORWEG handcrafted safes are as unique as the collectible treasures they protect and display. BUBEN&ZORWEG, creators of multifunctional luxury safes, watch winders and clocks for the world’s most passionate collectors, is delighted to present BUBEN&ZORWEG BESPOKE LINE – an innovative service which reduces the waiting time for customisable safes. Luxury is in the details. With BESPOKE LINE a choice of designs, materials and colours allows collectors to express their personality in the most indulgent of ways. Each BUBEN&ZORWEG bespoke masterpiece can be personalised with a range of 10 distinct shades of fine Italian Nappa leather and 10 individual high gloss lacquer finishes. Colours range from Arctic White, to Diabolo Red, Havanna Brown, Graphite and Emerald Green. BUBEN&ZORWEG BESPOKE LINE enables collectors to create a masterpiece that is unique to them, receiving it in an expedited time frame. At only 12 16 | UNIQUE

weeks from order to creation, customers are able to individualise their safe in a stress-free manner and receive it far faster than BUBEN&ZORWEG entirely made-to-order commissions. BUBEN&ZORWEG offers the BESPOKE LINE service across 10 of its handcrafted safe collections. BUBEN&ZORWEG also offers an installation service, flying specially trained technicians anywhere in the world to install its masterpieces. Founder Harald Buben said: “BESPOKE LINE is the only service of its kind in our industry. Each customised masterpiece allows the owner to personally participate in the creation. One customer wanted his safe’s leather and stitching to match his newly ordered Bentley convertible. The safe now stands proudly in his bedroom beneath a photo of him with his two sons in front of his new car. With four in 10 orders at BUBEN&ZORWEG comprising bespoke requests, BESPOKE LINE makes it easier for passionate collectors to create something unique to them.”

And just while its latest and 10th property gears up to open this month in The Seychelles, an unexpected destination and project falls under the group’s roof. New York would have been the last place to come to mind when we think about Six Senses. But then, why not? The city will be the brand’s debut in the US when the Six Senses New York opens in 2019. Work has begun and is being developed by HFZ Capital Group in New York City between Manhattan’s popular High Line and the Hudson River. More significantly, this is the brand’s first ‘urban home’. The size is not small for New York standards, but it is not big for Six Sense standards. It is located on 10th Avenue, and encompasses the entire block between 17th and 18th streets in the heart of Chelsea. The project will be called The Eleventh and will have two towers which will include the first fivestar hotel for downtown Manhattan’s West Side, 240 condominium residences and high-end retail shopping.
