What does a modern home look like across the world? With more information and inspiration than ever before, it makes sense that the spaces we live in reflect a globalised design style. In Issue 29 of est magazine we set out to shores near and far to discover a collection of homes that stand boldly in the present day, eschewing convention or location in favour of a fresh perspective.
From a silo apartment in Belgium to a rural weekend amidst the Wyoming wilderness, we explore homes that reflect the way we live now, from growing appetites for sustainability and mindfulness to a return to simplicity, craftsmanship and heritage.
We also shed some light on the rising design talent from Italy, delve deeper to iconic international brands Vipp and Vola, draw on the Danes for style inspiration and call on a leading Australian architect to share his recommendations for design enthusiast’s Japan itinerary.
