Pérez started out in the 1970s, making a name for himself in the public housing market of neighborhoods like Miami’s Little Havana and Homestead. More than three decades later, his continued passion for vibrant urban communities has made him a trendsetter, often the first developer to enter emerging or undiscovered neighborhoods. Through the years, Pérez and the Related Group have partnered with world-class names in architecture and interior design to produce neighborhood-defining projects and establish Related’s developments as integral components of Miami’s evolving cityscape. A lover of art and an avid collector, Pérez infuses each development with carefully selected 00 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com

The partnership between Keller and the reimagined Surf Club is extremely fitting. The Surf Club is one of Miami’s most beloved and historic locations that was known for drawing in A-listers like the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Elizabeth Taylor, General Douglas MacArthur, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra and Winston Churchill during its prime.

Below: Lobster Thermidor interpret classic continental cuisine for a modern audience—think dishes like Lobster Thermidor, Avocado Louis and a Caesar Salad prepared tableside. We’ll give our guests a dining experience that mirrors the effortless, easygoing golden era of the ‘50s and ‘60s. The elegant aesthetic of the restaurant’s décor will make the setting as memorable as the food. How will The Surf Club Restaurant distinguish itself in the Miami food scene? Our goal is to pay homage to the property’s history in Miami’s social scene, and the cuisine of The Surf Club Restaurant is inspired by the midcentury American ideal of Old-World ambiance. There’s nothing like it in Miami, and the setting in this historic landmark is perfect for the lively, fun atmosphere we’re creating. I am very excited about this concept and will bring it to Hudson Yards in New York when TAK Room opens next spring. How often will the menu change? We have a set à la carte menu with daily specials. Highlights of the menu? My personal favorite menu item is the Roasted Chicken. It’s a timeless dish and a must-have on a menu that is inspired by classic, continental cuisine. We also have wonderful seafood on the menu—from a delicious Dover Sole to fresh Oysters. Our desserts will include Lemon Tart and Chocolate Soufflé that are delicious and comforting and so good, guests will order them time and time again. How will you incorporate the relaxed, beachside atmosphere into the dining experience? In curating the menu, we wanted to be sure to call to mind our location as a resort destination—we’re honoring the leisure culture of decades past in every facet of the restaurant. Martin Brudnizki has incorporated the spirit of Miami as a reference point when designing the restaurant, as bold terrazzo flooring floods the entire restaurant, which with the addition of lush planting native to the region, ensures the restaurant and especially the terrace feel rooted to the locality. Additionally, our team will be bringing their own vast knowledge of Miami and culture to our guests. What are you most excited about debuting with this new project? Being a part of The Surf Club property both because of its history but also because of the way Nadim and Fort Partners have reimagined it today. It’s very exciting for me and our team. 00 HAUTE LIVING

to a local fish ‘n’ chip shop—or “chippy” to english locals—in north London. The quirky, offbeat shoot featured one of the U.K.’s most talented and famous exports, Harry Styles, the now-solo singer/ musician, formerly one-fifth of the British pop boy band sensation, “One Direction.” Styles—who has become a style icon himself—is the young English hero of the images, wearing tailored Gucci suits with waistcoats—one is made from wool mohair with white, red and black mini pied de poule with a green checkered blanket, and the other is an ink-gray bee checked suit. He also wears a macro gingham sharkskin dressing gown as a coat, as well as a dark wool mohair jacket with an embroidered collar, and a Major League Baseball New York Yankees-patched, white-oatmeal, bird’s eye wool suit—a real head-turner. The contemporary styling perfectly combines more formal cuts with casual and youthful touches—a combination that Gucci has mastered. The other heroes in the shoot are the pet chicken and dog, prominently featured in the “chippy” with Styles. Reflecting a common theme and setting in British film, the narrative of the images portrays a young Englishman ordering his food from the fish and chip shop counter and sharing with his animals. The campaign video, below, is so charmingly British, playing the song “Michelle,” written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney, of British Beatles royalty.

Drawing on its heritage, Karl Lagerfeld continues to reinvent the CHANEL staple in his collections, this time, via the Beret, the Boater and Headpieces with Veils.

The style is available in more than 15 different tweeds of varied colors, some with embroidered sequins and there with CHANEL-stamped oversized brooches.

THE BERET
THE BOATER
A super-chic addition to any outfit, Gabrielle updated the veil and brought it back in the 1930s, embellished with ribbons, flowers, feathers and even birds. A daring but sophisticated accessory, Lagerfeld uses the playful style in his collections, with varied tulles, embroidery, jewelry, brooches, feathers and flowers. For the Spring-Summer 2018 Haute Couture collection, his veils were varied, with different proportions, topped with flowers, transparencies, embroideries, chiffon flowers, silk, tweed, beads and spring flowers made by the House of Lemarié.
Inspired by menswear, the Beret was one of the most classic pieces of Gabrielle’s wardrobe. The addition of a brooch made the style more feminine, and to her, represented a certain freedom, continuing to reinterpret the style from the 1930s onward. Lagerfeld takes this legacy and has included the style in several CHANEL collections, worn by talents such as Claudia Schiffer and Karen Elson in 1993 and 1998 for advertisements. In the 2018/2019 Cruise collection, Lagerfeld has adapted the style as a “symbol of the spirit of
Another style adapted from menswear, Gabrielle used a straw boater hat to put an exclamation point on what was a seemingly simple outfit. In his book The Allure of Chanel, Paul Morand recalls Gabrielle’s words: “The women I saw at the races wore enormous loaves in their heads, constructions made of feathers and improved with fruit and plumes. (…) In the grandstands, people began talking about my amazing, unusual hats, so neat and austere. (…) I was the curious creature, the little woman whose

+CELEBRATING THIS SEPTEMBER MARKS A MILESTONE FOR
Casadei, as the Italian luxury footwear brand celebrates its 60th anniversary. Casadei was founded in 1958, in a small workshop in San Mauro Pascoli, Italy, where Quinto and Flora Casadei created the first collection of sandals designed for tourists holidaying on the Italian Riviera. The brand has since evolved into a full luxury footwear label that is a red-carpet staple and retails at some of the finest stores around the world. We sat down with Cesare Casadei, Quinto and Flora’s son, and the brand’s current creative director, to discuss the label’s evolution and how it plans on celebrating 60 years. How has Casadei evolved since its inception in 1958? Since the beginning of our journey, our mission has been to be at the service of women, to make them happy and excited in their Casadei shoes. For this reason I would say that since its inception, Casadei has been in constant development, looking at how women have changed, how society has organically changed. Looking back, just to mention, to the revolutionary ’70s, the overdecorated ’80s, the minimal ’90s… every decade has a deep story to tell, and we have witnessed it. Thanks to this huge heritage, we have had the chance to look back to look forward with a natural instinct for innovation and creativity. What has changed throughout its history? What remains the same? Values remain, and will always remain the same. Dedication, curiosity, open-mindedness, style, innovation and comfort. Time has changed, and society has changed. This is the reason why you must keep your eyes and your

mind wide open. We are children of the times, and we must follow the changes. What is the brand doing to celebrate this milestone anniversary? Have any special pieces been created? We have been discussing the meaning of celebrations with my family―as we always do for important matters. We all agreed that we had so many occasions for big events in the brand’s past, that today we really feel the importance of opening our doors to unveil the behind-the-scenes of luxury shoe making. Of course, as I am a creative mind; I cannot stop thinking of the new styles, therefore I designed a celebratory-capsule collection that embodies the conjunction of the past and future. A modern design inspired by the Andy Warhol Factory. Featuring the new Kitten Plexi Blade heel on a vintage silhouette, a slingback. It perfectly represents Casadei’s constant search for original, unexpected and revolutionary solutions, and our global vision. Is Casadei still the perfect brand to wear on the Italian Riviera? Where else is it a fit? Casadei can be worn everywhere and at every time of the day―or the night. We have such a wide range of styles from flats to stilettoes, sneakers and boots. Every woman can find her
favorite style in our stores. We are global! Which celebrities have worn Casadei through its most iconic moments? We are so lucky to have so many friends of the brand. Amazing women from all over the world have chosen Casadei in the past and keep on choosing the brand today. I feel very proud and blessed to see that we keep on appearing on beautiful feet globally and feel so happy to see how the celebrities interpret different styles in a personal way. What is your personal goal for the brand’s future and future evolution? To keep on doing what I love with my family; Casadei is the story of a family and the passion of their work. Is there a certain specific logic behind keeping the brand’s production in San Mauro Pascoli? Is it to lend Casadei authenticity, or something else? There would be no Casadei without San Mauro Pascoli, the district of women’s luxury shoes. Here is where the “know how” is based, and as we aim for excellence; there is no reason to move. As I like to mention, we are “Made in San Mauro Pascoli, not just made in Italy,” and we are proud of our roots. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 33

JUST BECAUSE YOU BECAME A PARENT
doesn’t mean you have to swap your Saint Laurent for sweatsuits, or your Louis V’s for 24/7 loungewear. And now, thanks to CYBEX, that rings true for your baby gear as well. Meet the CYBEX by Jeremy Scott Priam, part of the brand’s Platinum Style collection of products. The Priam stroller gives you all the functionality you need while matching with the most highend designers in your closet. But before getting into the fashionable side of things, let’s talk the two most important facets of buying any piece of equipment or gear for baby: safety and functionality. The Priam frame allows the user to build the perfect travel system for his or her baby using any Priam seat and carry cot attachment. It also can be used in two-wheel mode, making it completely functional in harsh surfaces like sand and snow, as well as going up and down stairs. The padded seat is plush and comfortable for baby and can be switched between forward and rear-facing positions, depending on what mom and dad prefer. The seat can also recline almost all the way back to a flat position, in both forward and rear-facing mode. For baby’s wellbeing, there is an XXL sun canopy with a peeka-boo window, touting a UPF 50+ rating for optimal sun protection, while a five-point safety harness is padded for extra comfort, without sacrificing any bit of security. And a high-quality faux leather bumper bar and adjustable foot rest make for baby’s luxurious R’n’R. Now let’s talk style. American fashion designer Jeremy Scott—the creative director of world-renowned fashion brand Moschino—is one of the most highly respected designers in the world. With a laundry list of A-list clientele
he has dressed in the past, including Rihanna, Katy Perry and Miley Cyrus, he also launched a successful collection with one of the biggest sportswear labels in the world, adidas. For his collection with CYBEX, Scott brings his eye-catching and extravagant designs to every piece in this collaboration, one being this highly coveted Priam, which he recently gifted to friend and one of the most recognizable faces in the music world today, Cardi B, in pink coloring. The style is particularly luxe, especially with the addition of the gold details, including the subtle branding, wheel rims and emblazoned wings. The CYBEX by Jeremy Scott Priam has quickly become a celebrity favorite, pictured with Nicky Hilton, Anne Hathaway and Keira Knightley, to name a few; it even made a cameo appearance in superstar singer Fergie‘s music video called “M.I.L.F. $,” which also featured some of the most famous moms in the world: Kim Kardashian, Chrissy Teigen, Ciara and Alessandra Ambrosio. The perfect combination of haute and practical, you won’t know whether to keep it in baby’s room or in your closet! @totliving HAUTE LIVING 53

SNOO Smart Sleeper is the first responsive bassinet that boosts sleep for babies and parents. BY JARONE ASHKENAZI
THE SNOO SMART SLEEPER IS THE SAFEST,
most effective bassinet that quickly soothes infant crying and boosts sleep with the same rhythmic sensations babies enjoy in the womb. Developed by Dr. Harvey Karp, a nationally renowned pediatrician and child development specialist, the SNOO is based on his 5 S’s (Swaddle, Side or Stomach Position, Shush, Swing, Suck), soothing tips that have helped millions of parents around the world. Since launching in 2016, SNOO has won over 14 major awards, including Innovation of the Year from the National Sleep Foundation and is the bed to meet all American Academy of Pediatrics safe sleep recommendations. Its smart technology responds to your baby’s crying by choosing the level of increased shushing and rocking most likely to calm the baby’s upset. The SNOO naturally sleep trains 54 HAUTE LIVING totliving.com
and helps newborns to babies up to six months to improve their sleep while the SNOO sack prevents risky rolling and is hip safe, which reduces overheating. The SNOO is the only bed that boosts your baby’s sleep from one-to-two hours thanks to the gentle rocking and constant rumbly sound they got so accustomed to in the womb. This rhythmic motion automatically reduces night waking and even helps your baby learn to self-soothe, so no more need for babies to cry it out. One other function that allows this to happen is by the bassinet ‘hearing’ your baby’s cries and automatically responds with five levels of white noise and motion to help soothe the fussing. The SNOO Smart Sleeper is one of several products under the Happiest Baby Inc. umbrella, a mission-driven, venture backed company started by Dr. Karp and wife and business partner, Nina Montée-Karp, dedicated to helping parents succeed at raising healthy, happy children.

Abu Dhabi Real Estate Is ALTHOUGH LU XU RY R EA L ES TAT E I N T HE U NIT E D A R A B
emirates underwent a stormy few years after the financial crash of 2008 and the oil price plunge of 2014, the future is looking good. Though appreciation could best be described as stable, expats are flocking to the area, particularly the capital Abu Dhabi, and new construction is booming. The city, which sits on an archipelago in the Persian Gulf, off the coast of the Arabian Peninsula, is made up of 80 percent expats for a reason—low taxes, or rather no taxes. Foreigners, reflected in the city’s cultural diversity, pay no income, capital gains or inheritance tax. For Brits, there’s an added bonus: A tax treaty signed between the UAE and the United Kingdom in 2016 means that U.K. pension holders over the age of 55 living in the Emirates can withdraw their entire pension tax-free providing they have been living in the UAE for at least five full tax years. This has caused a boom in wealthy foreigners looking to call the place home and keep their tax dollars/pounds in their bank accounts. Property broker JLL estimates that as many as 34,000 homes could be completed in 2018 with another 28,000 due in 2019. Much of the exuberance is due to Expo 2020, a global destination for new ideas and innovation (business, transport and sustainability). A World Expo happens once every five years and lasts for six months. An expected $8 billion is being spent on Expo-related projects driving an infrastructure boom, with $2-4 billion invested in developing the Expo site. The event is expected to attract up to 300,000 visitors a day when it opens. Standard Chartered, the international bank, has predicted it will also create around 300,000 new jobs and attract new residents in the Emirate city, which currently has a population of three million. Whether the Expo has a long-term effect on real estate values and investment, however, remains to be seen. If the last few Olympics are anything to go by, its effects at the residential end tend to be short-lived. Of greater appeal to wealthy expats looking to call the UAE a 56 HAUTE LIVING hauteresidence.com
second or even first home is the climate. It’s built on a desert, so it never rains, which is good and bad. Bad for natural vegetation and water supply, good for getting a tan. To quote the Financial Times, “at just 75mm, the average annual rainfall in the desert would barely fill a coffee mug.” Winters are warm, but summers are blistering―meaning long months inside air-conditioned buildings is a must. Luxury-condo residences tend to be within larger business and retail centers such as the popular condos offered at the Four Seasons Hotel Abu Dhabi (still under construction) within the Al Maryah Island development. Online searching showed a number of new single-family homes priced with the $5 million to $20 million range. However, more popular are the non-luxury, lower-priced properties such as those at the Al Reef development, where a four-bedroom villa can cost around $500,000 to $600,000. With prices in the UAE recently edging up and the area making great strides to establish cultural attractions such as the Louvre Abu Dhabi, the largest art museum on the Arabian Peninsula and a sister to the Parisian landmark, which recently opened its doors, real estate professionals are feeling confident about the city’s lure to investors. Golf enthusiasts have their choice of three pristine championship courses carved out of the peninsula’s sand dunes: Abu Dhabi Golf Club, Saadiyat Beach Golf Club and Yas Links Abu Dhabi. Soccer is also extremely popular in Abu Dhabi with a number of professional teams playing in newly built stadiums and top European clubs starting soccer schools in the area for young players. Buoying this is a new UAE-backed program offering potential buyers the opportunity to extend their visa by 10 years with a property purchase, which could have a huge impact driving sales and rental prices upward.

THEY SAY YOU CAN’T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER… BUT WE ALL DO. FIRST IMPRESSIONS MATTER, AND
Residential developers understand that. Particularly as the current market weakens with oversupply, buyers need to be hooked from the minute they walk in the door. A building’s lobby is the equivalent of a book cover. Developers can hook a buyer with class and elegance from the moment that buyer steps in the door. While developers used to build grand, sparse lobbies with the belief was that size mattered, the new trend in New York City is more intimate and quaint entryways that boast extremely costly and elegant finishes. The motto now is that good things come in small(er) packages.
207W79
Buyers looking for prestige appreciate the feeling of lobbies that replicate a grand townhouse. Feeling like a private home can really appeal over mammoth lobbies. One developer who is betting big on first impressions is Anbau, a Manhattanbased, full-service firm that worked with architect Morris Adjmi for its boutique condo 207W79 in a landmarked district of the Upper West Side. Entering the 16-story building, prospectors and buyers are greeted by a unique Bianco Carrara foliage mosaic and a border of Bianco Carrara marble. Walls have teak paneling with white bronze accents, creating an intimate, opulent entrance.
250 WEST 81ST
At 250 West 81st, owners enter through an oval gallery designed by world-renowned Robert A.M. Stern Architects, which are the leaders in old-school elegance. It is complete with a 14-foot-high dome ceiling, a beautiful custom fireplace with an imported marble surround and oeil-de-boeuf-inspired flooring of marble with custom bronze- accented wood. There is also a marble reception desk for the 24-hour lobby attendant and a concierge.
27 EAST 79TH STREET
Enter the chic lobby of this Cabinet Alberto Pinto-designed space and you may think you’re walking through a private home in Paris. The look at 27 East 79th Street features custom ironwork, imported blonde limestone tiles and patinated bronze fixtures that create a warm glow against the backdrop of Noir Saint Laurent marble.
277 FIFTH AVENUE
At 277 Fifth Avenue, a contemporary NoMad tower by Rafael Viñoly, residents will enter the bespoke, modern lobby designed by Jeffrey Beers International with silver travertine floors with Absolute Black Granite accents and Bianco Dolomiti white marble borders; walls are lined with slabs of Absolute Black Granite in contrasting polished and flamed finishes complemented by dark-stained White Oak panels. Behind the concierge desk is a freestanding wall lined with leather panels with metal accent trims, and featuring a sculptural art piece. In addition, this intimate space is a curated library with a dramatic double-height bookcase wall. 58 HAUTE LIVING hauteresidence.com

THE ONLY THING BETTER THAN DRINKING WORLD-CLASS WINES
is living on those sumptuous wine estates that produce such wines. Estates that are situated in the most ideal locations that boast the most ideal weather: sunny by day and cool by night. They also offer the most aromatic of scents: the briny ocean and smoky mountains intermingling with nearby sun-warmed lavender; the crispiness of apples colliding with the muskiness of garden-fresh melons. All these fragrances culminate into the blossoming of the most luscious, delectable grapes. Smell those subtle aromas of a blooming grape cluster, and you’ll smell the sweetest of ephemeral aromas, not cloying or overly saturated in any way. Such scents exude as you drink your bottle of Chianti or Malbec on an expansive stone terrace, watching the gentle sway of grape-bearing vines in the most magnificent of grooves sprawled out as far as your eyes can see. This is, indeed, the good life as toasted by oenophiles around the world. For those who are fortunate enough to own a piece of wine country, their dream lies in the sipping of vino, eyeing the vineyard vistas and feeling the verve on a daily basis while situated in one of the world’s most revered wine regions.
BORDEAUX, FRANCE
Bordeaux, France, is the world’s largest wine region that is bien adapté for unparalleled wine to flourish. It is the perfect location to experience idyllic French persuasions for those seeking wineproducing châteaux, vineyards, wineries and overarching plane trees along rural roadways. Bordeaux is the perfect location for a château to sit in an elevated position overlooking its surrounding vineyard. A vast living room with an original period stone fireplace, a chevron oak parquet floor, high ceilings and French windows can only add to the charm of any ideal French property that produces the finest of world-renowned wines. To live in such a château is to experience Bordeaux at its best, boldest and most beautiful, year-round.

TUSCANY, ITALY
Tuscany ranks quite high on that list of “Best Places to Live,” wine connoisseur or not. Each home has its own character accompanied by lands that yield the most spectacular wines. Every element of this tranquil Italian countryside serves to culminate into creating that perfect sip. In Tuscan wine regions, it’s not uncommon to see the most impressive of cypresses gracefully leading up to an estate’s grand entrance, surrounded by those quintessential grounds with magnificent marble fountains and sculptures. Such grounds are encapsulated by fragrant formal gardens, as well as olive groves, vineyards and, at times, a private forest. Tuscany is regarded as the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance and the reasons as to why are so clearly evident. Tuscan locales have remained largely unchanged for centuries: Notable wine estates, vineyards, farmhouses and stone houses remain full of character and original features, while reflecting the legendary landscapes and antiquity of this district. It is no wonder that Tuscany is referred to as “a nation within a nation.” Tuscany is, indeed, the magic behind that stupendous bottle of wine, that sumptuous grape.
NAPA VALLEY, CALIFORNIA
It’s so easy to get into that Napa state of mind: warm weather, stunning views, sophisticated viticulture and refined culinary arts. The luscious green hills and valleys lure many to live their life of luxury there, one of the most spectacular wine regions in the world. A perennially popular warm season makes for the most incredible recreational paradise year-round. It’s effortless to live in a Napa home with a series of private pavilions, terraces and courtyards that are embraced by unparalleled, panoramic views of rolling grasslands and undulating vineyards. Add in some canopied trees with the most incredulous mountain vistas, and you’re definitely in California wine country—and here to stay. It simply does not get any better. Unless, of course, you also have a glass of fine wine in your hand.
MANY HOLLYWOOD STARS AND MUSIC-INDUSTRY LEADERS ARE
turning art collecting into an inspiring hobby and profitable investment. Famous faces are making regular appearances at Art Basel,
museum benefits and auctions. While personal tastes vary, these
art-collecting celebs have walls in their homes that would rival any gallery show.
LEONARDO DICAPRIO’S ART COLLECTION
Call DiCaprio “The Wolf of Wall Art.” This guy is a fixture on the
art-auction circuit. He may try to keep a low profile with a cap pulled low over his eyes, but it’s hard for him to hide once the bidding starts. One of DiCaprio’s first big art purchases was a Jean-Michel
Basquiat drawing. He told The Wall Street Journal, “I’ve continued to be a huge admirer of Basquiat.”
He has also purchased work by Andy Warhol, Picasso, Takashi
Murakami, Oscar Murillo, Walton Ford, Ed Ruscha and Mark Ryden. DiCaprio has even found ways to combine his philanthropic
work with art appreciation. In 2013, he held “The 11th Hour Sale” a
Christie’s charity auction to benefit some of his environmental causes. During the event, DiCaprio purchased a painting by his friend “Dustheads” by Jean Michel Basquiat;Brad Pitt; Jay-Z; Leonardo DiCaprio
Walton Ford for $250,000. At Sean Penn’s Haiti Rising Gala charity
auction in Beverly Hills, DiCaprio purchased a work by Ed Ruscha for $125,000.
Last year, DiCaprio made headlines for having to surrender a $3.2
million Picasso and a $9 million Basquiat to the U.S. government.
The works were connected to the 1Malaysia Development Berhad embezzlement scandal. Because the art in question were gifts,
DiCaprio was not charged with any crimes or implicated in any
wrongdoing. A statement from the actor about the pieces read, “Mr. DiCaprio is grateful for the support of the government in this effort and continues to hope that justice is done in this matter.”

FROM ONE OF THE LATE ZAHA HADID’S FINAL PROJECTS IN
Macau to a lavish design-driven effort in Shanghai from Bvlgari,
to the Nobu brand’s hot opening in Marbella, here are the best new hotel openings of 2018.
FAIRMONT MALDIVES SIRRU FEN FUSHI “Sirru Fen Fushi” means “secret water
island” in Dhivehi, the local language of
the Maldives, which is apt considering that each of the 120 luxury villas (all with their own special something, from glamping barbecues in the tented jungle villas to
luxury baths in a private tropical garden)
at this breathtaking new Fairmont property are totally private. Even cooler: The hotel
hosted the first coral regeneration project in the form of an underwater art installation, Jason deCaires Taylor. Expect to see some
serious marine life here, including turtles,
bottlenose dolphins and even a manta ray
cleaning station in the crystal-clear waters of the 600-hectare lagoon. Make sure to partake in memorable experiences, like
sunset fishing aboard an authentic Maldivian dhoni, jewelry or dreamcatcher-making at an
on-site art studio, getting a sweat on with the Maldivian Warrior Workout, which makes use of the island’s natural gym equipment such as coconut dumbbells and driftwood
planks, or even giving back by participating in coral-restoration efforts, turtle-release
programs and by planting coconut trees. Unit 2B Faamdheyrige, Orchid Magu, Male Maldives, Maldives, Shaviyani Atoll, 20209

the fore of the car industry, captivating the imagination of manufacturers and devotees worldwide. The latest ripple in the segment comes from legacy carmaker Jaguar, which recently debuted its I-PACE model. Having zipped on the country roads of Europe for a month now, I-PACE conquers some 240 miles per a charge of its lithium-ion battery cells, fueling two electric motors. The battery rests within the wheelbase, providing a low center of gravity that enhances the vehicle’s dynamics and longevity. Reaching 60 mph in a mere 4.5 seconds thanks to its builtin All Wheel Drive traction, I-PACE generates nearly 400 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque. Breaking comes with an extreme ease and regeneration capabilities. The breaking system not only slows down the car but transforms that energy into power to prolong the battery’s range. I-PACE accomplishes these commendable feats with 10 hours of charging from a conventional outlet, a time that dwindles to around an hour with a dedicated electric charge point. Inside, the car is as striking as it is from the outside. Clean, straight lines dominate the interior, which holds sports seats available in a raft of materials and hues. The motor encapsulation of the cabin, wired with control screens, reduces outside noises―a feature that augments the already quiet drive. An all-electric vehicle with a sleek silhouette, the model is an intricate blend between an SUV and a sports car. It can sit five and has 51 cubic feet of storage space. The luxury electric car flaunts a modest price compared to its upscale origin and competitors such as Tesla Model X. The basic I-PACE edition goes for just under $70,000. Electric cars might still not be widely accessible to the masses, a fact Elon Musk has vowed to upend. Yet, Jaguar, a legacy high-end brand, appears to have claimed the lead on this one with its budget-friendly, comfortable and reliable I-PACE.

Huracán Performante : Even the name sounds fast BY TIM LAPPEN

the Huracán is no different. Spanish for “hurricane,” it’s the name of a famous Spanish fighting bull. Perhaps that bull handled well and had terrific acceleration, too, since its automotive namesake sure does. And then Lamborghini upped the ante with the Performante, the sriracha of Huracáns. The Performante differs from its “normal” AWD Huracán sibling in a few ways: • Weight–Dropped almost 90 pounds, to about 3,050 pounds (that’s light!) • Horsepower–Added almost 30, now up to 631 • Torque–Included 30 more, to 443 foot-pounds • 0-60–2.9 seconds (3/10 of a second faster than its sibling) Perhaps the most obvious difference is that the Performante has a huge rear wing sitting up on two strong struts. But the less-obvious benefit of that wing is what Lamborghini calls “ALA,” which stands for “Aerodinamica Lamborghini Attiva,” or “Active Aero.” It allows the air inhaled at the front to be channeled in ways that can produce downforce on the rear tires, which helps provide traction at higher speeds, when cars tend to rise up due to the air running underneath. But wait, there’s more! The system has the ability to address each of the two struts separately so it can apply downforce to the inside tire on a corner (the one that lifts due to cornering forces) and thereby allow the car to corner faster on the track. How much faster? The Huracán Performante set the record for a production car on the fabled Nürburgring Nordschleife track, beating the time set by the Porsche 918 (the hybrid monster car that sold for a base price of $845,000 and was motivated by 882 ponies) by five seconds, a huge amount of time in racing. When considering the price differential over the $275,000 base of the Performante, and the approximately 250 horsepower less than the Porsche, the Active Aero proved its worth, and then some. I have loved every Lamborghini I have ever driven, on the track and on the street, in the mountains and highways from Deer Valley to Jackson Hole, on the track at Homestead (Florida) and Thermal (California) and in various California stoplight Grands Prix. Their distinctive, aggressive looks announce their street cred and their snarl is not electronically enhanced–when Sant’Agata Bolognese creates an offering, its looks and sounds write checks that the car is ready, willing and able to cash–even without two forms of ID. Sure, the car is low (under 45 inches from street to roof) and entries and exits require a certain level of flexibility and core strength (or in some people, who shall remain nameless, a certain level of pride that summons forth flexibility and core strength that theretofore never existed). But to become so well-ensconced in the driver’s seat, where it’s almost like a bespoke suit that is made for its owner, it’s to encourage the driver to become one with the machine. And for that experience, it’s worth all of the gyrations necessary to make that happen.

At 157m (512 ft), Dilbar is the world’s fourth-longest yacht and the world’s biggest, by volume. Built by Lürrsen, Dilbar is owned by Russian-Uzbek mining and investment giant Alisher Burkhanovich Usmanov, accommodates 40 people, a crew of 100 and a bespoke Airbus H175 helicopter for seven passengers. The helicopter also features a forward zone, complete with a lounge vibe and club seating for four and a galley with sofa seating for three in the rear. Dilbar has a displacement tonnage of 1,230 tons—equivalent to around 186 elephants, a beam width of 23m and a 25m swimming pool able to hold 225,000 liters of water. The superyacht also has 3,800m of living space for the owner and guests. While it may not be the world’s most expensive boat at almost $300 million, it certainly is one for the books.
Initially a joint venture between Blohm + Voss and Lürssen shipyards, the Andrew Winchdesigned Platinum 525 was commissioned in 1996 for Prince Jefri Bolkiah of Brunei. In 2001, Platinum Yachts acquired the hull for H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, vice president and prime minister of the United Arab Emirates. Sheikh Mohammed took over the project in 2006, and he renamed the Platinum 525 to what we now know as the Dubai. Among the Dubai’s most intriguing features are the split-level owner’s deck, a helipad that accommodates a 9.5-ton helicopter, multiple Jacuzzis and sunbathing areas, magnificent, delicately wrought mosaics and an astonishing circular staircase with glass steps. At 162m (531 ft, 6 in), the Dubai easily cruises at 26 knots (30 mph; 48km/h) with a crew of 88 and a crew area large enough to accommodate 115 people. While the Dubai also has the distinction of being previously named the world’s largest yacht, it’s also one of the world’s most memorable. At $400 million, it’s also among the most expensive.

Tourbillon From a precision device to a collector’s favorite complication, these are the ins and outs of the famed tourbillon.
THE TOURBILLON IS ONE OF THE MOST HIGHLY regarded complications that can be bought, mostly due to the combination of its perceived technical difficulty together with its aesthetic beauty. The contribution of a tourbillon to the precision of a wristwatch is always a heavily debated topic. It was originally developed for pocket watches, which remain the vast majority of their time in one or two positions. When our timekeepers migrated from our pockets to our wrists, the movements of our arms brought the balance wheel in so many different positions that this almost acts as a natural “tourbillon.” But then again, we don’t wear a mechanical wristwatch because it is so precise―we wear it because they are objects of great beauty and technical perseverance. After the invention of the tourbillon by AbrahamLouis Breguet in 1801, it remained a rare and exclusive complication. In fact, only a relatively small group of watchmakers took an interest in them, serving a group of watch collectors and connoisseurs who were “in the know” about this remarkable complication. This changed when, after the quartz crisis, there was a renewed interest of the general public into mechanical watches. They went from functional timekeepers to objects of art that just happen to tell time. At this stage, the tourbillon emerged as one of the most eminent players. At first, these watches featured the traditional tourbillon over a single axis, as designed by Breguet, but as the interest in the complication remained strong, there was room in the market for more exclusive, hence complicated, tourbillons.

BY MARTIN GREEN
To make a tourbillon more complicated, quite a few things can be done, but the most popular ones have been to either let them rotate over more than one axis, or to use multiple tourbillons in a single movement. The double-axis tourbillon was invented in 1977 by Anthony Randall. As the name already indicates, this tourbillon doesn’t rotate over just a single axis, but two, and this was the first of its kind. This first double-axis tourbillon was actually used in a clock and wouldn’t be used in a wristwatch until the early 2000s. Later on, a triple-axis tourbillon would also be introduced into wristwatches. The appeal of a multi-axis tourbillon lies in the fact that it is much more of a three-dimensional object that is in constant motion. It not only offered new challenges for watchmakers but also for designers on how to best incorporate the complications’ unique qualities so that it can be admired in its full glory by the owners who wear the watch. This has resulted over the years in many unique designs, such as the Hublot MP-09 Tourbillon Bi-Axis. Integrating multiple tourbillons into a single movement is another way to make a tourbillon watch more complicated. What it generally does is that the watch takes the sum, through a differential, of both tourbillons which average out positional errors. The focus is increased precision once again, but the visual impact of these watches is for many the true reason to purchase one of these watches.

A second time zone features an eye-catching rotating globe with universal time and day-and-night, and it also tells the summer and winter times of the different time zones and which cities observe them. To ensure precise timekeeping, Greubel Forsey also features a 25° inclined tourbillon that makes a full rotation in 24 seconds. With a diameter of 43.5mm, this is not even the largest, most complicated watch on the market, but also doesn’t really quite fit in this diameter, as the case bulges out to accommodate the three-dimensional earth and tourbillon. JAQUET DROZ CHARMING BIRD With a diameter of 47mm, this Jaquet Droz is big. However, it needs to be as it not only tells the time but also has to provide enough room for the bird inside the watch to live. Famous for its automatons, Jaquet Droz’s watch offers a bird that whistles, twists and flaps its wings, all under a sapphire dome on the watch dial. Doing all that mechanically is an incredible feat, and 47mm seems quite small to accomplish all this. The watch is offered in a few varieties, but the beauty of this one is that the mechanics that make the unique features of the watch possible can be seen, which adds to its magic. A. LANGE & SÖHNE TRIPLE SPLIT A. Lange & Söhne is a very practical brand. It usually only goes big with its cases when it needs the space to create something unique. In the case of the Triple Split, the watch offers a rattrapante function on not only the seconds but also the hours and the minutes. Given that accomplishment, it is impressive that it has kept the size of this highly complicated manual wind watch at 43.2mm. The Triple Split goes further from the 2004 Double Split by A. Lange & Söhne―it has increased the range in which two events can be timed to 12 hours. It’s a unique feature in the world of Haute Horlogerie and spaced well within the large case of this watch. @hautetime HAUTE LIVING 87

+The Need
for Speed Roger Dubuis teams up with Pirelli and Lamborghini on the Excalibur Aventador S. BY MARTIN GREEN
HOW CAN THE SPEED AND AGILITY OF A SUPER sports car be translated into a watch? At Roger Dubuis, it has no problem capturing the essence of it all, which is fortunate as it has teamed up with two of the most iconic names in the car industry: Pirelli and Lamborghini. A watch that best explains how it achieves this is inspired by the latter and named the Excalibur Aventador S. To create this watch, Roger Dubuis did forgo the usual complications and opted for two balances, placed at a 90° angle and linked with a differential. This forms the input for the dead-beat seconds hand, and of course the hour and minute hand. The result is a watch that not only looks exotic, but in which its exotic looks actually serve a purpose and contribute to a more precise way of keeping time. In that way, this Roger Dubuis is rather similar to the car that gave its name, the Lamborghini Aventador S. Yet this is not the only similarity between the two mechanical marvels.

Just like Lamborghini, Roger Dubuis has also embraced new materials to make its watch lighter yet stronger. Just as the chassis of the Aventador S is made from CSMC carbon, so is its case. Weight is even further reduced by skeletonizing the case where possible, which makes it wears surprisingly light despite its generous diameter of 45mm. Color can do a lot for a car, but also for a watch. Technically, both Excalibur Aventador S watches are identical, yet they look quite different. The green version is a boutique exclusive, limited to only eight pieces and uses a monochrome theme to really set off the bright green color of the many details inside and outside the watch. The other Excalibur Aventador S is quite different, where red and neptune blue highlight various aspects of the watch, creating a very vibrant piece of mechanical art, and a true testimony that the sense of speed can be captured in a wristwatch. 90 HAUTE LIVING hautetime.com

BELOVED JAPANESE CHEF KATSUYA UECHI
has debuted his 14th namesake restaurant as Katsuya opens in the brand-new SLS LUX Hotel and Residences from the dynamic duo of sbe and the related group. Located in the bustling Brickell neighborhood, which is exploding after the introduction of the neighboring Brickell City Centre, the hot spot welcomes hotel guests, residents and visitors alike to come and enjoy the everfamous Katsuya cuisine in one of Miami’s hottest locations. The restaurant debuts in partnership with global hospitality powerhouse sbe, which has been working with chef Katsuya since the first restaurant concept. Now 14 restaurants later, the brand has become known for concocting impeccable and innovative Japanese cuisine with favorite signature dishes including the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice, Baked Dynamite Crab Roll, Yellowtail Sashimi with Jalepeño and the Miso Black Cod. Katsuya Brickell brings a new level of luxury with it as it boasts a stunning and unique interior decor, created by global design houses Yabu Pushelberg and Arquitectonica, which also curated the rest of the property including the hotel and residences. The dark, earthy interior pays homage to the history of Japanese hospitality. The restaurant boasts two main areas—the main dining room and a second dining space that centers around the lively sushi bar. Along the sides are also private dining spaces, decorated with touches of Japanese artwork and collectibles. Each area incorporates unique features of art. George Yabu and Glenn Pushelberg note that one of the focal points is the exaggerated

CUISINE
Daruma-inspired art installations that hang suspended above the main dining room. Wooden elements and touches of bamboo throughout the space truly give it an authentic feel, and the dim lighting also helps create a sexy dining atmosphere. On the menu is a lengthy list of Katsuya favorites, some of which are elevated for the more discerning diners, with chef Denevin Miranda helming the kitchen as executive chef for the property. Noteworthy dishes include the Crispy Rice with the addition of caviar—the combination of rich caviar with the crunchy tuna is a homerun—as well as the decadent Lobster Dynamite sautéed with mushrooms and tossed in a creamy dynamite sauce; the melt-in-your-mouth A5 Wagyu hot pot; the fresh omakase selection and more. Additionally, unique to the location, the chef has created the Crawfish Shui Mai, Kani Crab Avocado, A5 Fried Rice and Tea Smoked Duck dishes to add some new favorites that still maintain the Katsuya flavor. Neighboring next door, guests can also end their night with inventive libations at the brand’s signature S Bar, a chic lounge serving up an array of drinks and lite bites until late in the evening. The team is extremely excited to debut the new property to the city, and particularly these new culinary concepts. “Katsuya has

seen exponential global growth. This location at SLS LUX Brickell is our second in the Miami market and joins a strong global portfolio across major cities―from Los Angeles and Dubai to Kuwait City and the Bahamas―with more in the global pipeline. Yabu Pushelberg’s elegant design creates a unique guest experience while staying true to Katsuya’s distinctive DNA,” said Sam Nazarian, founder and CEO of sbe. “Sbe’s mark on Brickell’s growing gastronomy and social scene is unmatched, and we look forward to continuing to push the city’s boundaries with our innovative concepts Katsuya and S Bar.” The overall design, cuisine, service and vibe of the brand-new restaurant will certainly prove a hit for Miamians who love the Katsuya food but crave it away from South Beach. Open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner, it serves as the perfect power-lunch destination or lively date-night spot. Katsuya and S Bar are located at SLS LUX Hotel and Residences, 8 SE St., Miami. Katsuya is open daily from 7 a.m.-11:30 a.m. for breakfast, 11:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. for lunch and 6:00 p.m.-1:30 a.m. for dinner. S Bar will be open daily from 2 p.m.-2 a.m. For more information and updates, please visit www.slslux.com.

I REMEMBER YEARS AGO, MAKING TRIPS
north of New York City with my team at Restaurant DANIEL. It quickly became a tradition: Every Sunday, we would meet up at Auberge Maxime or the restaurant of Bernard le Bris in North Salem, which is today Vox and run by his brother Jean. Westchester was our destination of choice on our day off to have lunch together, laugh, relax, eat, drink, play Pétanque and of course plan the work week ahead. When my wife, Katherine, and I started talking about getting a house outside of the city, we knew we wanted to stay close enough that we could go often on weekends. I thought Westchester County could be great, so we began looking around South Salem, Katonah, Bedford and Pound Ridge until we came upon this house on a quiet street and were immediately charmed. I found out the incomparable Martha Stewart lived in the region and knew that was a sign of quality farming and produce in the area. The first weekend we spent up there, she brought over a basket full of fresh salads, vegetables and herbs from her garden as a welcome gift, along with beautiful, different colored eggs from various breeds of hens. You don’t get that in the city! Westchester is also known as horsebackriding country. Driving along the back roads, you pass by various horse farms and stables sprawled across the land. I immediately feel connected to nature and the beauty of my surroundings when I’m up there—a welcome change of pace. There are numerous parks to explore, including one of my favorites, the Ward Pound Ridge Reserve, which is the county’s largest park and offers activities like hiking, fishing and horseback riding. Local farms and farmer’s markets are abundant along the Hudson Valley. John Jay Homestead is a historic site that curates a quaint market on Saturdays from May through October, which is where we get most of our produce, eggs and cheese from when we’re up there. Past Cross River about 10 minutes Northeast is Muscoot Farm, an open-air interpretative museum and park from the 1900s. It’s home to year-round programming and a great seasonal market, but you can also just walk around and see the pigs, sheep, donkeys, horses, chickens and learn about the site’s history. The
00 HAUTE LIVING
Katonah Museum of Art is another beautiful establishment that perfectly caters to family and children through various creative and cultural outlets. Of course, the area is also bustling with great dining options. I love to get breakfast from the Katonah Reading Room—part boutique, part café, and located right by the train station. They have a wide and delicious selection of seasonal items and baked goods. Purdy’s Farmer & the Fish is another local favorite housed inside an 18th century farmhouse. The menu offers some of the best seafood and vegetables grown on-site; a musttry is the Downeast Lobster Roll. Other elegant spots include the handsome Inn at Pound Ridge by my dear friend chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten and the Bedford Post Inn, where you can enjoy a relaxing meal under the wisteria on the wrap-around terrace. A short drive east will take you to Bernard’s in Ridgefield, Connecticut. Bernard Bouïssou and I worked together a long time ago at the Plaza Athénée in the city. He has since settled in Connecticut and has done a tremendous job restoring an inn from the 1800s into a local dining establishment that the community truly cherishes. This is the perfect time of year to enjoy all that New York State has to offer. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 113
