PANTONE unveils: "We get energy from nature. Just as coral reefs are a source of sustenance and shelter to sea life, vibrant yet mellow PANTONE 16-1546 Living Coral embraces us with warmth and nourishment to provide comfort and buoyancy in our continually shifting environment. In reaction to the onslaught of digital technology and social media increasingly embedding into daily life, we are seeking authentic and immersive experiences that enable connection and intimacy. Sociable and spirited, the engaging nature of PANTONE 16-1546 Living Coral welcomes and encourages lighthearted activity. Symbolising our innate need for optimism and joyful pursuits, Pantone 16-1546 Living Coral embodies our desire for playful expression.” Representing the fusion of modern life, Pantone Living Coral is a nurturing colour that appears in our natural surroundings and at the same time, displays a lively presence within social media. “Colour is an equalising lens through which we experience our natural and digital realities and this is particularly true for Living Coral,” said Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute. “With consumers craving human interaction and social connection, the humanising and heartening qualities displayed by the convivial Pantone Living Coral hit a responsive chord.”
Pantone 16-1546 Living Coral emits the desired, familiar and energising aspects of colour found in nature. In its glorious, yet unfortunately more Haven loungechair by Warmnordic elusive, display beneath the sea, this vivifying vivifying and effervescent colour mesmerises the eye and mind. Lying at the center of our naturally vivid and chromatic ecosystem, Pantone Living Coral is evocative of how coral reefs provide shelter to a diverse kaleidoscope of colour. “Colour enhances and influences the way we experience life,” said Laurie Pressman, Vice President of the Pantone Color Institute. “As a shade that affirms life through a dual role of energising and nourishing, Pantone 16-1546 Living Coral reinforces how colours can embody our collective experience and reflect what is taking place in our global culture at a moment in time.”

« EXCUSE MY FRENCH! » It's the new inspiration theme Maison&Objet that will be held in Paris from January 18 to 22, 2019. What do first lady Brigitte Macron, choreographer Benjamin Millepied and the singer Christine and the Queens have in common… apart from the fact that they are all French? According to Vincent Grégoire from the Paris-based forecasting agency NellyRodi, they also possess a certain je ne sais quoi — that indescribable Gallic quality that exudes an easy allure, an effortless chic and a distinctive sense of style. For each session of Maison&Objet, NellyRodi analyses the latest consumer trends and sociological phenomena, and encapsulates them in a theme. The topic chosen for January 2019 may have a humorous note to it: “Excuse My French!” but, it
looks very seriously at a reemergence of the country of Molière on the international scene. “There’s a renewed curiosity about the French abroad, a sort of fascination at the moment”, asserts Grégoire. For him, the movement is linked to globalisation: “In a world where things are becoming standardized, people are looking for something different”. And where better to celebrate that than at Maison&Objet, the Parisian trade show par excellence? Foreign visitors will be given the opportunity to discover new French brands and designers, while others will better understand how to take full advantage of the Made in France phenomenon.”
IMPRONTE creates porcelain jewelry, poetic objects that are children of nature and light. Unique, unrepeatable and precious pieces modeled by hand. Jewels designed, molded and finished with exclusive fittings and intense passion. Capable of expressing the strength, the essence, the character and the optimistic nature of who will wear them. Our proud artisan work that walks in the path of Italian tradition: all this is IMPRONTE.

«There’s a renewed curiosity about the French abroad, a sort of fascination at the moment» The country has long been a reference worldwide for the arts, fashion, design and lifestyle. For many, it is quite simply the epitome of elegance. Think Catherine Deneuve or the Château de Versailles! Clichés aside, Grégoire pinpoints a number of factors responsible for the country’s new-found resurgence. Leading the way are a whole host of smaller companies – Petites Maisons, who reinterpret traditional savoir-faire with product lines characterized by a spirit of invention and exclusivity. A “nouvelle vague” of creatives open to multicultural influences has also emerged. They shake up traditional French chic by injecting inspirations from elsewhere in a new mood of fusion and mix ‘n’ match.
The importance of the French tech industry should not be underestimated either. Paris is home to the world’s largest start-up campus, Station F, and Gallic firms are leading players in fields of new technology that are bringing revolutionary changes in the home. The design world, meanwhile, is full of figures whose style could be best described as “Classic With A Twist”. They bring with them a typically French note of irreverence and daring, a quirkiness and extravagance, which endow their work with an original touch.
«In a world where things are becoming standardized, people are looking for something different»
The design world, is full of figures whose style could be best described as ‘classic with a twist’ All of these threads will be brought together in January at the Trend Forum, a 250 sq. m space in Hall 7 that will present a selection of products embodying the essence of the new French scene. Its theatrical décor will be inspired by the Hall of Mirrors at Versailles, but with a little impertinence à la française mixed in. A small truck where you will be able to find the trend look for sale will be parked in the middle of it and a number of contemporary items will deliberately contrast with the classical setting. “There will be disruptive, dissonant elements and a spirit of contradiction”, promises Grégoire. “They’re an integral part of that je ne sais quoi”.

Zaha Hadid Architects and A_Lab have won the architectural competition to design the Fornbuporten and Fornebu Senter stations, two of the six stations planned for the new Fornebubanen metro line in Oslo. The new 8km Fornebubanen metro line will run in a sub-surface tunnel connecting Majorstuen interchange station in Oslo’s city centre to Fornebu Senter on the peninsula. The entrances at either end of the new Fornbuporten station define two distinct civic spaces at street level. To the south, a layered, orthogonal pavilion and public piazza extend the Cartesian geometries of its surrounding urban fabric. To the north, an oval canopy sits within the natural landscape of the community park in which it is located. www.zaha-hadid.com

In the heart of Milan, Jumbo Group redesigns the spaces of Caffé Baglioni and “Montenapoleone Terrace Suite” using two Jumbo Group’s furniture collections: Jumbo Collection and Gianfranco Ferré Home.
TWO EXCELLENCES OF MADE IN ITALY IN THE FURNITURE AND HOTEL INDUSTRY, FOR THE FIRST TIME TOGETHER IN A PROJECT THAT COMBINES DESIGN AND HOSPITALITY

T
rue expression of the Italian lifestyle, Jumbo Group and Baglioni Hotel Carlton meet in a setting able to offer an immersive experience where furniture develops into a new concept of lifestyle, creating an innovative dimension of luxury. The project, designed by Livio Ballabio, Jumbo Group’s creative director, reinterprets the spaces of the “Montenapoleone Terrace Suite” and the Caffé Baglioni through the refined charm of two Jumbo Group’s furniture collections. In the main apartment of the “Montenapoleone Terrace Suite”, the most exclusive one, the absolute protagonist is Jumbo Collection, a classic line able to express the concept of luxury at the highest levels according to a new, more contemporary and brighter approach. The delicate color palette in the shades of beige and olive green, embellished with golden touches, creates a refined setting, in which are positioned the pieces characterized by precious marbles. A selection of refined materials whose manufacturing shows the craftsmanship which has always featured the brand. A mix of elements creating a cross-cutting interior design project, in which oriental and French inspirations come together in an eclectic mix, expression of a new dimension of classic style.
Connected to the main apartment, the junior suite wears Gianfranco Ferré Home’s unmistakable style: the interior decoration in a palette of putty-colour, brown and bronze, combined with the warm feeling of leather and velvet fabrics, creates an enveloping, delicate and comfortable space with a contemporary and ambitious taste.

AN EXCLUSIVE INTERIOR DESIGN PROPOSAL, ABLE TO REFLECT THE TRUE ESSENCE OF MILAN LIFESTYLE, INTENDED AS AN EXPRESSION OF A CULTURED AND REFINED TASTE AND A NEW VISION OF INTELLECTUAL ELEGANCE. At Caffé Baglioni, Milan style elegance is expressed in all its power through an amazing selection of Gianfranco Ferré Home’s furnishings and accessories. The lighting recalling the 50s style enhances the refinement of the special editions: armchairs with an enveloping design and essential lines upholstered in leather and weave on the back or in velvet. The tables, created especially for the occasion, are characterized by the presence of aligned ropes to create a refined grosgrain effect, also visible on the walls. A refined chromatic palette is created starting from a refined air force blue, a light blue shade with gray undertones, a color with a strong personality and distinctive character, combined with tones of gray in the walls and black in the ropes. The Caffé Baglioni thus acquires a very masculine character, revisiting in a contemporary key the typical cigar room environment of the 50s. An exclusive interior design proposal, able to reflect the true essence of Milan lifestyle, intended as an expression of a cultured and refined taste and a new vision of intellectual elegance.

he story of the Royal Atlantis begins with the lights of DubaĂŻ, from sunrise to sunset, which have been the source of our initial inspirations. They shine on the face of the city in an array of different colors according to the time of day, and wander upon the city in an enchanting dance that the designer wanted to capture and translate in our project. It was of utmost importance to create the right interior architecture to accommodate the light in the design of the space and choice of colors and textures that would represent the reflection and material expression of these illuminating effects. The bedrooms and intimate spaces reveal a superior level of sophistication; silk, embroidered fabrics, and sculpted leather arouse the senses and provoke a reverie.

elements that create a tranquil and warm environment. Each detail of the bathroom is designed in consideration of its aesthetic as well as its practicality in order to create a relaxing and replenishing atmosphere. The use of noble materials, marble and brass, create a refined luxury.
The choice of colors was Inspired by those of the city: silver grey like the sunrise light, gold like the zenith, rose gold like the sunset. These colors delicately dress up the interiors, subtlety give life to spaces, magnify materials and objects, and give way to the imaginary. 70 | G&G _ Magazine
Materials and their textures have revealed our choice of color scheme: glass has been used for its transparency, metal for the revered art of metalworking, porcelain for its delicacy and elegance, and textile for its precious, refined and warm aspects. These materials, thanks to five Artisans d’Art, became the support of those harmonies. They capture and diffuse the brilliant light of morning to the soft glow of evening. Between the creation of art and skilled craftsmanship, the decor of the Royal Atlantis emanates a feeling of uniqueness and rarity. It draws us back to our philosophy of luxury where details are essential, whether they be distinctly visible or barely discernible. Our choice of colors was Inspired by those of the city: silver grey like the sunrise light, gold like the zenith, rose gold like the sunset. These colors delicately dress up the interiors, subtlety give life to spaces, magnify materials and objects, and give way to the imaginary.

Facing the sea and the gardens, the lobby is bathed in natural light, which exudes a majestic sense of luxury. The precious materials: marble, ceramic, precious textiles, crystal, combined with contemporary lines, unite to become an elegant space. Central to this reception area are the stairs a sculptural expression of the creative atmosphere. Besides Annie Trussart, embroidery expert, resized embellishment to architectural and extravagant proportions. From works for French couturiers she enlarged her savoir-faire to architecture. She created luminous metalworks mixing glass pearls and metal mesh. The swimming pool, heaven of peace, invites to relax in a luxurious dĂŠcor of ceramics and soft colors.

RETREAT With the renovation and expansion of the Zallinger Refuge at the Seiser Alm/ Alpe di Siusi, noa* network of architecture completed the new scattered Hotel at high altitude, a model of hospitality born as a good example of responsible tourism.

N
oa*’s architectural plan added 24 rooms in the new minichalets and left the original 13 rooms, which were already available in the central building of the guesthouse. The chalets are always in pairs. Each chalet has four rooms, not connected, which is accessed by a shared distribution corridor. Privacy is thus guaranteed. From the constructive point of view, each unit rests on a concrete plateau, which has been constructed with prefabricated methods in wood starting from a 'custom' engineering by noa*s architects. In this way the construction site has had minimal impact on the environment, both in construction time on site, as well as the transportation of materials. The esthetics, for both the architecture and interiors are characterized by the constructive wooden walls, giving a modern “log-cabin” feel to the space.
The interior of the rooms is cosy and warm with a modern mountain-lodge character. The materials are inspired by the traditional hunter’s clothing; cushions with knitted details and felt. Some rooms have a small loft that can be used as a bedroom for kids or just a relaxing corner. The sustainable mission of the project is also expressed in the fact that the property has renounced the '4 Stars' classification of the hotel, in order not to increase the volume of the building to the detriment of a negative impact on the landscape: Zallinger's challenge is to offer a receptivity luxury through the quality of the spaces and services without increasing the surface square meters in a macroscopic way. 76 | G&G _ Magazine
" In this project we have also tried to bring out that strong relationship between architecture and context , which characterizes all our works. We want to propose new models of life and hospitality that on the one hand recover traditional forms and materials, on the other hand express quality of design, high levels of comfort and sustainability. The alpine environment is a complex and fascinating system that must be understood and respected. We think it's important to think of new spaces and ways to inhibit it : environments on a human scale, comfortable, welcoming, but above all unique and authentic" – explains Architect Stefan Rier
All the built-in furnishings were designed by noa* and customized according to the style and space, combined with a refined choice of furniture to complete the new design. A good example can be seen in the tables (from Billiani) of the lounge area that can change height: thanks to an upand-down mechanism of the support legs, they are transformed into tables where once can dine in comfort.
The central body of the historic lodge has been maintained but completely redesigned in the internal layout of the ground floor: the new interior design incorporates the reception, the lobby, the lounge and the restaurant. The restaurant and the lounge area have been designed to accommodate external guests as well: many skiers stop for lunch, seeing as the refuge is located on the main ski slopes of the Alpe di Siusi mountain range, while the lounge is very popular during the evenings. However, hotel guests can count on a more private and familiar area, which is focused around the large fireplace. The walls are covered in wood, with the idea to recreate the atmosphere of a traditional “stube� - the classic alpine room where once the family gathered around the fireplace - but with the contemporary sign of the wooden boards that seamlessly rise from the walls and on to the ceiling, behind which, soundabsorbing panels have been positioned to create maximum acoustic comfort. The choice of using a felt flooring, a traditional alpine material that combines resistance and softness, also aims to the same result. The bar area is characterized by a huge fir tree-trunk (local essence) as a counter: a solution that brings the presence of nature inside the building with its beauty, primordial strength and its complexity in structure. Great attention has also been given to the lighting in this project. 78 | G&G _ Magazine
“Tongues of flame� Situated on the highest part of Baku, Fairmont Baku is part of one of the most extra-ordinary and audacious buildings of modern times, Flame Towers. The hotel offers guests a unique stay in a one-of-a-kind property - an authentically local spirit, dressed in contemporary attire that symbolize the embodiment of all that is best about Azerbaijan. 80 | G&G _ Magazine
W
hen you have such a dramatic design as the Flame Towers Project, you need to work with an interior design company that has the skill set, experience and talent to devise an equally striking yet contemporary interior – and the owners selected renowned design firm HBA / Hirsch Bedner Associates to do just that, with a team up to 20 talented designers at some point. The aim was to produce an iconic interior – to be modern and contemporary as Baku opens itself out into the world. Speaking with Pierre Josselin, Senior Lead Designer on the hotel tower and John Sands, Senior Associate on the entire project, including both the residential and office towers, the holistic inspiration for the interiors has very much been taken from the iconic building itself. “We have tended to use materials from all over the world as befits a modern building of this calibre,” said Sands.

For the function and pre-function areas we selected slightly darker tones introducing deep brown materials to give a richer business vibe to the space. Patterns of the carpets represent different movements of water. Elegant red silk wall coverings in the pre-function space defines the seating areas while some red glass panels inserted in the ceiling give more interest to the meeting rooms. The shape of the lighting fixtures in the ballroom are mimicking the flame and made of bronze glass elements which are also displayed as an art installation in the main lobby, linking the public spaces to each other. The studio wanted guests to have a sense of where they were with a more holistic design. On the next level up the guest can enjoy The Jazz Club. These areas have been designed as stand alone properties by the specialised F&B division of HBA who took care of the French Brasserie as well on the main level.
Above is a two-storey spa where the design team privileged warm amber tones, linked by a striking bronze glass staircase. HBA worked closely with SPA on all levels to find practical solutions to issues brought about by the unique design of the towers. It had to be fabulous, very different, with a sense of place. Most of the spaces have soft curved walls in reference to the shape of the towers. The floor to ceiling and curved windows in particular elicited some inspired solutions to ensure guest privacy. Of equal importance for SPA was to create an ambiance which respected the many cultures of Azerbaijan and the property’s international guests, reflected in distinct male and female spaces.
84 | G&G _ Magazine
The first level is the active floor where the gym, the pool and a spa cafe are located. It’s fresh and vibrant with the use of white marble and amber tone woods. The spa pool is evidently a favorite of Josselin: the design studio played with a circular pattern of iridescent clear glass mosaic from Italy, which sparkles like diamonds. The canopy above the pool, made of stainless steel mesh wrapped in iridescent orange fabric, lit from below looks like a cloud of smoke floating above the water. It will be striking and also an amazing background for all the events happening on the terrace next door. The second level is the passive floor with the treatment rooms, a manicure pedicure area overlooking a Zen like sky garden and a Hammam. Saddle wood floors are associated to darker veneers for a more relaxing, moodier feel. The changing rooms are divided into smaller areas to give an intimate residential feel to the space. High gloss red lacquer is used inside the lockers for a surprising rich contrast. The sharp apex of the tower has been dedicated to specific spa areas such as the Hammam and the fitness studio. The former is inspired by a traditional Turkish Hammam with more contemporary finishes. HBA explained that when working with a spa operator, it’s very much a joint exercise as all the fabrics and finishes used need to be tested by them to see how they react in a spa environment.

E C L E C T I AMBIENCE C
The professional New York-based interior designer Peti Lau presented the new project: a Hollywood vibe house in New York City for one of the most influential DJ ensembles of the last couple of years, The Chainsmokers.This incredible rising star was able to turn this 1930s building into a modern and eclectic house that is truly a dream come true.
I
t’s customary to say that the house is the mirror of the soul. Considering that this is a totally true statement, it is natural that a man who’s achieved fame and wealth mixing music would be drawn to a house that’s a hodgepodge of architectural styles. “All we know” is that the home that Alex Pall one half of the Chainsmokers, a Grammywinning DJ duo—bought two years ago was built in the 1930s. In the 1980s and 90s renovations were made to the house and this added a dash of industrial edge. T The mashup appealed to Mr. Pall, but when it came to decorating it, he sought professional help. So, the magic happens: a designer capitalizes on her rock-star client’s open mind—and art collection and dials the décor energy to the top. Mr. Pall had already installed the naturethemed wallpaper and the orange-velvet a couch in the family room when Ms. Lau began decorating the house. She continued the interior-jungle theme, as she called it, with a natural-fiber coffee table that evokes dried versions of the leaves on the wall, and leopard and tribal-print pillows. 88 | G&G _ Magazine
The orange, green and blue palette of the painting by Hassan Hajjaj (the Andy Warhol of Morocco, said Ms. Lau) recurs in tr trippy throw pillows from Silken Favours and the vintage Turkish rug laid over a larger jute rug. “A classic antique rug is a nice way to stabilize all the stuff that’s going on,” she added.
A very unique detail of this living room is the furniture, namely a sideboard from Essential Home brand in particular: inspired by the 007 films, Monocles is a sideboard built entirely out of solid walnut wood, accented by its gold-plated brass front doors that feature a protruding circular design. These circles are then engraved to the back and side of the unit, giving it an extreme character and highend look. It is a perfect furniture piece for retro lovers or mi mid-century admirers, giving the knurling knobs on the drawers or the tapered legs. “The house had this built-in eclecticism,” said Ms. Lau, a ChineseVietnamese American born in Israel whose own influences might be similarly characterized. “It felt appropriate to approach each interior space as its own unique environment.” She brashly mixed decades and colors and incorporated Mr. Pall’s growing contemporary art collection, an approach that miraculously holds each room together.
90 | G&G _ Magazine
Over the past decade, Peti Lau’s projects have brought her to locations such as Los Angeles, London, and Brighton in U.K., Koh Samui Thailand, India, and Mauritius. Her eclectic style has attracted a wide range of clients including celebrities, like Alex Pall Chainsmokers DJ.
Peti Lau has developed a signature style she coined AristoFreak™. Peti expresses her worldly inspirations with eclectic colors, patterns, and textures to create romance and moods in all of her spaces. AristoFreak™ emerged from Peti’s early career in Thailand, Mauritius, and Europe through her
adventures as an expatriate, influenced by her love of art, travel, and lifestyle. Her curiosity for exploration ultimately led her to the concrete jungle of New York Ci City. AristoFreak™ evolved through the ideology of “old world charms” adapted for modern living.
MODERN
COSMOPOLITANISM The Bulgarian architecture studio, ALL in STUDIO LTD., realized the house for a young couple with their two kids (5 and 7), located in a residential complex of a closed-typen in Sofia, it defines a particular lifestyle and a set of requirements. The space definition and architectural decor on one hand typify the style of ALL in Studio. On the other hand, they carry the scent of strict individuality, caused by the house specificities and the character of its inhabitants. “Each concept begins with the house specificities that we have. If the ceiling is 3.2m, it is 3.2, even if we wish for a 4.5. In this case, the ceilings on the second floor were following the complexities of the roofs, which are asymmetrically pitched. This opens up multiple possibilities to play with stereometry and use shapes to define the space. Afterwards, we had to select the right combination of materials. And so on and so on. The dots just connected by themselves or the way we put it. This project took cues from the desire of the young couple to have “modern, soft materials, wood and stone”. The studio deciphers these needs through its prism, offering a new view of the composition. For instance, instead of offering hardwood floor, the parquet goes up on the kitchen doors and the staircase railing. 94 | G&G _ Magazine

The spacious living room juxtaposes warmth of tone and delicacy to the trendy terrazzo tiled floor, yet this contrast is symbiotic and makes the composition appear timeless. Soft underglow draws the attention to the interaction of wood and stone. The wood pattern corresponds with the geometry of the custom made bookshelf, visually separated from the floor and ceiling creating a sense of a floating sculpture. The aerial motif is reiterated with the lamps by Flos and Sattler. Sofa and armchair by Saba. The copper nuances and the fine construction of the cocktail tables and the Brokis lamp add further warmth and sophistication. The kitchen is minimalistic, yet with an abundance of architectural decor. The metal frame connects the two house levels vertically. Its patterns follow the geometry of the roof pitch, as well as the raster of herringbone wood panels that cover the cabinets (design by ALL in Studio) - a refreshingly surreal effect that contrasts with the traditional setup. Two lighting fixtures (Etch and Tom Dixon) mark the dining zone. Dining table by Andrew World, chairs by Pedralli. From a volume definition perspective, the fireplace separates the dining zone from the living room, but it carries an even more important function - as an archetype of warmth and love within the home. The simplistic form and the dark graphite tone draw attention to the mystic charm of fire. The tubular copper frame of the Saba armchair and the copper finish of the side table lend a warm edge to the room. The standing lamp by Flos offers a gentle graphic glow.
98 | G&G _ Magazine
This home is a space that is categorical and elusive, coherent and creating visual stimulations all at the same time. It easily transforms, combining, yet defining the intimate and social functions of the different zones. Harmony is achieved through the calm, quiet presence of stone, wood, copper and brass. A sophisticated ether is created through the ephemeral constructions bookshelf, that appears to be floating in the air, the bold verticals, accented by the decorative metal grid and the wood panelled walls in the master bedroom. The simplistic charm of nature - calming, warm and mysterious is blended with the modern style and trends. Discreet surrealist touch of the compositions and the explicit geometry offer beauty and constant surprise, nurturing the imagination. Calm and intimate atmosphere in the master bedroom is achieved through the wood
panelled walls, which also create the illusion of vertical space. A touch of classy chic is added through the custom patterned low bed, the IC lamp by Michael Anastasiades for Flos and the side tables with copper finish. Minimalistic luxury defines the seamless bathroom - a standing tub, sliding doors from black toned glass and a mirror wall create a relaxing vibe in this personal space.
The children’s bedrooms purposefully distract from the interior concept of the rest of the house. “We wanted to bring the children to a different world - maybe Narnia or Wonderland - and have them to use their imagination…" The formula is: soft tones, delicately offered surprises and open spaces with extraordinary design objects with a soul offering delight and teaching art appreciation - Liana lamps by the Bouroullec brothers, Puppy from the Me too collection by Magis.

Maurizio Pellizzoni undertook the interior design of a large Edwardian property in Godalming, Surrey, UK, that dates back from 1901 and is rooted in the Arts & Crafts movement. To maximise the space, the original building has been extended to add a new doubleheight formal room, orangery, three extra bathrooms and a walk-in wardrobe for the master bedroom.
104 | G&G _ Magazine
The client was keen to incorporate existing pieces of furniture from various family trips abroad into the new design. These pieces were distributed amongst the rooms in the house, and used as the inspiration behind each room’s individual colour scheme and feel, creating an eclectic yet personal overall design aesthetic. Maurizio completely redesigned the kitchen alongside a local expert kitchen maker, sourcing the perfect finishing touches like the custom made Carrara worktop for the kitchen. Particular attention was paid to such final details throughout the property in order to achieve a high-level of elegance and sophistication in the design, such as the beautifully crafted door handles by Charles Edwards. Ralph Lauren, de Le Cuona and Andrew Martin furniture and fabrics were also used throughout to create an air of luxurious refinement, while complementing the client’s existing pieces. The brief was to recreate The Hamptons in the Surrey Hills, and Maurizio set about creating an upscale ‘American look’ that incorporated the owners’ many personal antiques and objects d’art. All the artworks were reframed for consistency and around 20 per cent of the furniture, including the kitchen, the balustrade in the hallway and all the sofas, was custom-made by Maurizio. For the relaxed and informal living space, the
client requested timeless nautical style that would also translate to a contemporary, English countryside setting. In order to achieve this, Maurizio designed a scheme inspired by the signature Hampton’s style, an effortless mix of smart tailoring, cool blue and neutral tones and natural materials. Maurizio worked to develop bespoke furniture pieces, which use local craft, materials and resources to reinforce the connection between the property and its location in the English countryside. The design serves to conjure up memories of summer days spent by the beach, while retaining an element of timeless English tradition and charm. The nautical stripes of the cushions and the statement ‘Hamptons’ rug are mixed with floral details on the two armchairs and the porcelain lamps and vases, available from the Maurizio Pellizzoni Boutique. By using the same blue tones throughout, the contrasting patterns effortlessly create an eclectic yet harmonious aesthetic with a nod to the fun and informality of the coast, remaining relevant all year round. The new formal dining room is next door to the kitchen and during the summer time has an easy access to the large patio facing the old swimming pool.
On the first floor we have the master en-suite with walking closet, two guest bedrooms, one with en-suite bathroom, two more bathrooms and the formal study. The top floor is the kid’s playground; they have two generous bedrooms with sitting areas for entertaining their friends and a private playroom in between the two bedrooms. The top floor also has a large bathroom with double sink, bath and shower room.

MUS ARCHITECTS presents the apartment near Wawel Castle in Cracow. The character of its interior is created by skeleton of solids levitating in space. Black frames organize a functional program by emphasizing its components.

The apartment located in a renovated old tenement house is small with a surface of 46m2, but the height of 330cm in the light of the room allowed us to think of the local stratification of utility functions and the creation of mezzanine. By analyzing the requirements and lifestyle of the customer, MUS ARCHITECTS thought to maximize the open living space (living room) and create over the entrance belt of the bedroom on the mezzanine. In the space of the apartment, there is therefore an entrance zone with a hall and a wardrobe, an open kitchen with a dining room and a bathroom on the other side, a living room, a separate children's room and a bedroom area above Living room space) and children's bedroom (available from children's room). It is worth noting that, due to the family's lifestyle, the apartment is not used on a daily basis and is mainly a "private haven", a meeting point, one of the living spaces of the client and his family. Thanks to the adopted space arrangement, the architects could fill the desired customer's functional plan on a small surface while keeping the openness of the living space open to the undoubted strengths of the space - the high interior, attractive balcony and large windows, and what is outside the house. The apartment has been designed functional and modern. The language of aesthetic articulation is compact and minimalist, and the layout of the space is legible and tailored to the needs of the client. The whole composition is c omplemented by freestanding fur niture of famous and esteemed pr oducers.

WARM INDUSTRIAL STYLE
The 50sqm apartment, located in the central area of SĂŁo Paulo (Brazil), has received a complete renovation with the project signed by the architect Rafael Zalc and by Mona Singal from Rua 141.
W
ith the Upcycling concept, the reform brought major changes to prioritize the use of space. Despite the reduced footage, the changes contributed to the optimal use of the space. The room was integrated to the social area and the shelf made in rebar and metal sheets sectorized the environments, giving a privacy when the resident receives friends and family. As the original bathroom was very small, the architects reduced 30cm from the room to make it more spacious and functional, in addition to valuing the floor plan of the apartment. The terrace, with 30% of the total size of the apartment, was incorporated into the internal area, becoming a continuity - the walls and frames were eliminated and the hydraulic pipes became apparent, becoming part of the concept. The propose was to take advantage of the spaces, considering the creation of environments with more than one use, such as the service area that is hidden behind the "shrimp" door and connected to the kitchen, or the bench on the terrace that serves as table support of dining and that turns the work table, allowing a continuity between the spaces in a fluid way. 116 | G&G _ Magazine
For interior design, the architects prioritized the Brazilian design, mainly by choosing the names of young talents, and also created some of the furniture. The architects created the bench that becomes a desk on the terrace, the bed, the rebar bookcase, the kitchen counter, and all the fixtures in the apartment. The Upcycling concept is very present in the apartment. This concept appears at the truck 118 | G&G _ Magazine
tarp at the headboard, the rebar for the bookshelf, the concrete slabs on the wall and still the gas pipes in the dining chandelier. The industrial style is present in a cozy way, exploring the contrast between the materials. The demolition wood enters like protagonist in the floor, reinforcing the cozy space and at the same time contrasting with the coldness of the concrete, giving unit of language to the project.

hree elements make up the project. An extruded cover in the longitudinal direction of the ground with a "T" shape is the framework in which space is inhabited. This geometry let us feel the sea, protecting from prying eyes, having the sense of living without neighbors. It helps control the southern sun during summer and lets it pass in winter. The walkable roof becomes a sort of belvedere enjoying the entire surface of the plot. An exempt cabinet houses the structure, distributes spaces and filters privacy, opening up possibilities in the way of movement and use of space. The main room, shaded by the cantilever is arranged in continuity with the outside. The interior of the unit includes wetted parts and limits the scale of overnight areas that are located in the quiet part of the garden. The study opens on the corner with the best views. These two elements, cover and cabinet are deposited on the stone base where the water level and other uses of the house are dug. These spaces are adapted to the natural slope that exists in the plot.

The scale of the house is moderated by understanding the living area as a base to emerge with the same natural stone which urbanizes part of the plot. On this base the sleeping area is deposited, creating shaded terraces where enjoying the outdoors. A noticeably square plan, which covers an extensive range of uses in a compact area, is drawn. The staircase and the inner atrium distribute the spaces, prioritizing uses, with all spaces opened to the garden.
MOUNTAIN REIGN SAOTA, leading South African architecture firm presents a Cape Town family home positioned below Lion’s Head; with views of Table Mountain, Lion’s Head, Signal Hill and the mountains of the Boland and the winelands in the distance, the architecture is shaped to take in as much of the surrounding as is possible.

he strongest gesture is the inverted pyramid roof which creates a clerestory window around the upper level. It allows the building to open up, capturing views of Table Mountain and Lion’s Head that would otherwise have been lost. This has also opened up views of the sky bringing the sun and moon into the home, heightening the connection to nature and its cycles. The house presents a stone wall, built in a traditional Cape way, to the busy city street that it sits on, revealing very little about its interior. At night, the inverted pyramid roof glows creating a giant lightbox adding to the intrigue. One enters the house through the large metal front door, which sits between the house proper and the stone wall, into a small entrance lobby connected to a courtyard garden. From this restrained quiet space a few steps take you up into the living space with its cinematic bold views over the city. The house is arranged on three levels. The top level has the strongest views and holds most of the living spaces; the open-plan kitchen, dining room and lounge. The family’s work and bedroom spaces are on the midlevel with the garage, gym, cinema and guest room on the lower level. Each level has its own set of gardens and courtyards. These gardens extend from the mountain surface down against the house, screening the neighbouring buildings and intensifying the relationship with nature; allowing light and air into spaces that would otherwise be dark and isolated.

The dark exterior breaks down the mass of the building pushing it into the background. Internally, colours are muted and the use of a washed oak gives the spaces warmth. The sophisticated spaces were furnished using OKHA furniture. The Hunt Sofa, the Nate, Nicci Nouveau, Vince and Miles Armchairs are placed on the upper and middle levels and the Planalto Dining Table creates a focal point adjacent to the second floor courtyard, which is used as a working/personal space. OKHA also provided the To Be One and Lean On Me floor lamps in the lounge area.

Davide Macullo Architects projected Wal-Chong Art Gallery in Jeju Island, South Korea that isn't a work of architecture but a translation into a built landscape of the work of contemporary Korean artist Lee Wal-Chong.
136 | G&G _ Magazine
fter many years of research, merging its work with the context within which the architectural studio builds, this work represents an important milestone that has confirmed, how, on a practical level, abandoning the dogma often associated with the practice of architecture is a way to enter into a new expressive world, related more to the senses than ideology. Architecture is the bridge between the DNA of a place and its future and serves to transmit the emotions through the senses of man. The Wal Chong Museum, for which the architects have served as the instruments for the sensibilities of the artist, is born out of the fertile land of Jeju and expresses its heritage and soul. The architect is asked to prepare the physical mass. Its form was created as if carved out by the natural elements of the island, as if it were lain exposed for centuries to its wind and its waters. This work becomes the representation of a built and painted space of the magic world of Jeju and of its history, evoking the ancestral energies of volcanic eruptions out in the middle of the sea. This project was conceived of and explored as a modelled form; sculptural and gestural forms that are afforded harmony through a precise geometry. Initially revealing a reclining female figure overlooking the ocean, it ultimately reaches a synthesis within which we find the aspirations and inspirations of the artist working in tandem with natural elements.
Just like a block of clay from which the artist can carve out, cut, shape and paint; the building, together with the sculpture garden, becomes part of the artist’s work. Wal Chong, in his on-site daily life, (not a day has gone by that he has not worked alongside the builders) has shaped every detail according to his own extraordinary sensibility related to his world on Jeju island. He has created a sculpture on a landscape scale, he has recreated the wonderful world of his art using all the elements available to him. He chooses natural elements such as the flowers and the trees and considers not only their form and colour but also the insects and the songs of the birds that live and fly among them. All these elements are found in the work of the artist, but this time they are transformed into a landscape to be enjoyed and physically experienced through the senses. The work of Wal Chong is focused on representing the context of his island. It reproduces the simplicity and the richness of island life and of its proud and humble soul.

ON THE LAKE Mecanoo, The Dutch architectural firm, has completed the 600 m2 three-storey villa with one level below water and two large terraces in Lechlade, UK.
The villa is situated in a green oasis of trees and plants that hide the house from view. Water plants along the water line alternate with stepping stones that lead to other parts of the garden. On the water side, the villa has an optimal view over the lake. The guiding design principle was to create a house that combines transparency with sustainability, forging a strong relationship between the villa and the landscape. The harmony between landscape and interior, architecture and nature, was a key design determinant, particularly regarding sight lines, materials, colours, and lighting. The house is designed from inside out, creating uninterrupted views to the surrounding 142 | G&G _ Magazine
nature while providing shelter and intimacy. All these aspects work together to ensure the house’s sense of timelessness. Terraces on two different levels connect the villa to both the land and the water, anchoring the house in nature and giving it a welcoming presence. Glass corner windows in the living room, kitchen and other rooms, make the residents feel like they live on the water. Between the house and the adjacent plot, a hilly finger of land with tall trees ensures privacy. By curving the bridge that connects the villa to the main road, the row of trees remains intact. This further increases the sense of privacy and blocks disturbing lights from the traffic.
Interior elements such as the fireplace and storage cupboards, divide the house into different places, creating more intimate and private areas within the large transparent volume. In the heart of the house, a fullheight void connects all levels and creates another series of diagonal and vertical sight lines. The staircase sews all the rooms together into one interior space. The central atrium brings abundant daylight into the sunken basement and connects the interior to the roof terrace. From the roof terrace, one can enjoy panoramic views as if floating quietly over the expanse of the lake.
