When New York went into a two-month lockdown just days after his 63rd birthday, two-Michelin-starred chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten found himself in a highly unusual predicament: he had to cook at home. One might not expect this to be an issue for a man with 42 restaurants around the world to his name. But for Vongerichten, who had never prepared anything but coffee in his West Village pad (and who’d never had to, given that he owns 14 restaurants in New York City alone), it was a problem. The last year has tested us all in new and unusual ways — including some that may not immediately seem obvious. “I cook for my friends and family at my house in the country [in Westchester County], but never in my New York apartment,” the Frenchborn chef explains. “I’m usually in the office by 9 o’clock, at the restaurant by noon, and we never go home before 11 or 12 o’clock at night. I had nothing at home [because] I never needed anything. So I had to buy a coffeemaker. I had to replenish my apartment. Amazon helped me a lot. I was probably the last person in New York still buying his toilet paper.” Like all of us, he pivoted. The first meal he prepared for himself at home was simple but perfect. Instead of sending a staffer, he went to the market himself. He bought organic eggs, mushrooms, spinach and Gruyère. He made do with the four burners he has in his kitchen, instead of the 14 you would typically find at one of his restaurants. He finally used all the brand-new equipment that had been sitting there unused and restless — and he got back into the habit of cleaning up after himself, too. “It was a learning curve,” he admits. “At home, you’re on your own: you have to clean, cut, peel, chop. [And what I found was that] it was actually fun.” But Vongerichten, who has spent the better part of 20 years traveling at least ten days a month, made the executive decision to stay in the city while many left because he wanted to support small businesses, from the farmers at the farmers’ market to local eateries in his neighborhood by ordering to go. And because he stayed, what he found was pleasure in relaxing, rejuvenating and reconnecting. “The first month [of lockdown], I had a negroni or a cocktail with friends on Zoom every night at sunset,” which provided an added bonus: “I learned how to drink again! Usually I’d have a glass of wine when the day was done, but I found myself having an aperitif at 6 o’clock and getting in bed by 8:30.” (He favors “old school” wines but enjoys trying new things — Rieslings from his home region of Alsace; Meursault, Bordeaux or champagne, also all from France; an Oregon pinot noir; Gruner Veltliner from Austria; a rosé when the weather is warmer.) And after years of catching only snippets of news or basketball games, he got to explore Netflix, and he also finally used his AppleTV+ subscription. “Ozark, Lupin, The Queen’s Gambit — I watched everything, including, wait for it, Emily in Paris and Bridgerton. I had never watched Chef’s Table before, so I took this opportunity to [watch it, and I also] rewatched a lot of old
16 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com
French films that I hadn’t seen in years, such as Belle du Jour. Watching movies was a new thing for me. When you live the restaurant life, the chef life, you don’t have the time.” Time for movies, cocktails or much of anything, if he’s being honest. “When you work in the restaurant industry, you are on the go all the time. I rarely have the opportunity to stop and look from the outside in. [Over the last year] I took the time to think about everything at the restaurants, pay more attention to the details. It made me take a step back and take my time understanding how and when we were going to reopen safely. It was really a time of reflection for me,” he explains. This professional life on the go is one he’s been living for almost 40 years. But his epicurean dedication started much earlier: enjoying perfectly prepared fare was a focus in his childhood home on the outskirts of Strasbourg. In fact, his 16th birthday gift was a meal at the three-star Michelin-rated Auberge de I’lll in Alsace, where he actually began his training, in a work-study program as an apprentice to chef Paul Haeberlin. He then went to work with Paul Bocuse at L’Oasis in southern France before helping chef Louis Outhier open ten restaurants in Asia, including at the Mandarin Hotel in Hong Kong, the Meridien Hotel in Singapore and the Oriental Hotel in Bangkok. He arrived in the United States in 1985 to work at Le Marquis de Lafayette in Boston before taking a position at Lafayette in New York’s Drake Swissôtel, which is where he met the financiers who would change his life even further. With the assistance of Bob Giraldi and Phil Suarez, he opened his first restaurant, JoJo, in 1991 (JoJo was his childhood nickname). And from there, he was off and running, a culinary star on the rise who would eventually build everything that exists today — the aforementioned 42 restaurants in hot spots including Los Angeles (Jean-Georges Beverly Hills and the Rooftop by JG), Miami (Matador Room, Market at Edition and Tropicale) and Las Vegas (Prime Steakhouse and Jean-Georges Steakhouse), as well as beautiful new locations like Keswick Hall in Charlottesville, Virginia; five James Beard Awards, including the 1998 accolade for outstanding chef; six cookbooks, the most recent of which was 2019’s JGV: A Life in 12 Recipes; and, most important, becoming a household name. His global empire has mightily borne the weight of the Covid-19 lockdown, luckier than most in that it has come out mostly unscathed. Vongerichten deserves much of the credit. He used the smarts and the skills that have made him into not just one of the world’s best chefs but also one of its most successful restaurateurs: he watched, he listened, he learned. He knew the coronavirus would head west, as he had already shuttered his three restaurants in China— Shanghai’s Jean-Georges and Mercato, as well as Mercato Guangzhou — two months earlier. “We knew what path we were on,” he says. “Our last day of service was March 14 [two days prior to New York state’s official lockdown announcement on March 16]. But still, my heart stopped, because literally everything was closed.” On March 16, 2020, Vongerichten celebrated his 63rd birthday quietly at Japanese eatery Omen Azen in SoHo, then hunkered down at home, also quietly, and prepared to pivot in a way that was far less enjoyable than flexing his at-home cooking skills or chilling with Netflix: he needed to put together a preventative strategy to keep his businesses secure. “I was in the office four days [after the lockdown was announced],” he admits. “I couldn’t say home. I did my first Covid test the week after the shutdown and have done them biweekly [for the last year]. We jumped right back into doing what we do.” From his Asian eateries (which also include Vong Kitchen in Indonesia, JG Tokyo in Japan and the Dempsey Cookhouse and Bar in Singapore), he and his staff instantly deployed Quick Response (QR) code, a twodimensional version of the bar code that allows for easy menu access and more. “In Asia, they’ve been through SARS and many other pandemics in the past, so when people are sick, they automatically wear a mask out of respect to other people. So we learned how to deal with it. We were lucky to

WATCH: Hublot
have that contact with Asia. We were literally sending our recipes via QR code to Shanghai the year before the pandemic, so we had more hope than anybody else to come back quickly.” “Quick” is an understatement. By summer 2020, his 14 New York City eateries — the aforementioned JoJo (yes, it’s still thriving today); contemporary trading post ABC Cocina; organic-focused ABC Kitchen; plant-based ABCV; his signature, two-Michelin-starred eatery Jean-Georges; Nougatine, the casual sister of Jean-Georges, with a lively bar scene, and its companion, Terrace at Nougatine; Louis, a multifaceted concept with a grocery, coffee shop, luncheonette and market; relaxed and elegant West Village eatery Perry St; Public Kitchen, at the Public Hotel on the Lower East Side; the Mark, located at the Mark Hotel on the Upper East Side; the chic and sophisticated Mercer Kitchen at the Mercer Hotel in SoHo; romantic, seafood-focused the Fulton at Pier 17; and Paris Café and Lisbon Lounge, both at the TWA Hotel at John F. Kennedy Airport — as well as JeanGeorges at Topping Rose House in Bridgehampton and the Inn at Pound Ridge in Westchester were focusing on outdoor dining with creative terrace space and to-go services. At the same time, he also — amazingly — opened two restaurants: L’Italien and L’Asiatique at the storied five-star La Mamounia hotel in Marrakesh, Morocco. “We signed a new deal in mid-April 2020 and, believe it or not, opened two restaurants over Zoom while everything was shut down in New York. We hired two chefs and a manager this way. We trained the entire kitchen staff with videos and recipes over video calls…and we were 95 percent there by the time we opened the door,” he says. It was much more labor-intensive to open a restaurant this way, but a guy’s got to do what a guy’s got to do. Usually, Vongerichten explains, it takes a few weeks to get everything up and running, especially with his hands-on approach. Remotely, a few weeks turned into a few months. Because of travel restrictions, he was only able to visit the property a week before its mid-October opening and finally meet the staff in person. He acknowledges that there were “a few adjustments” but also marvels, “in the end, the only thing that was really missing was a food test. We couldn’t test the flavors, but our recipes are very precise. Maybe that’s the next step: maybe we’ll find a way of smelling and tasting things remotely, like a scratch ’n’ sniff perfume ad. Maybe one day we can smell our food from a distance,” he muses with a laugh. Regardless, it takes a pretty particular type of person to successfully open two feted restaurants during a global pandemic, and he’s proud of this accomplishment. “It’s pretty amazing what you can do by communicating long-distance,” he says. “I had never done that before in my 45 years of cooking. It was pretty special.” When I sit down with Jean-Georges virtually on March 12 at his namesake New York eatery on Central Park West, he’s in great spirits. Manhattan is sunny, the sky is blue, he’s just had his second Covid-19 vaccine, and life is finally getting back to semi-normal. “We’re bouncing back slowly, but it was a fight,” he acknowledges, noting, “I wouldn’t have been able to get through this past year without the support of my team and family. I am just one person and I owe it to them, from my children to my brother to the dishwashers to my business partners. Together, we all were able to get us back to a place where we could see the light at the end of the tunnel.” The biggest change at the moment is his physical location. He has not spent this many consecutive days in New York for years, and, like most who spend their life on the go, he’s starting to get itchy. “To me, the greatest luxury in life is the opportunity I have to travel and make connections with people around the world,” he says. “I am always
inspired by my travels, the people I meet, the things I eat, the new flavors and ingredients I discover. It keeps me going, it keeps me challenged, and it keeps me wanting to learn more. Whenever I travel, I always meet people who teach me something, whether they’re locals or people who work in the industry. It’s a priceless experience. I have always been thankful that I’m fortunate enough to travel, but since the pandemic, my appreciation has only grown. Something that became a regular part of my life was suddenly removed, and it’s in moments like these, you only come to appreciate it even more. I haven’t had jet lag for a year, and I miss it!” Now, before you go calling the man crazy, hear him out. “It’s the only time — especially when you’re on a 15-hour flight to Shanghai — that no one can send you a text. There’s no WeChat, WhatsApp or fax. No one can ask you questions. There is only, ‘What do you want to eat and drink? Do you want another glass of champagne? Put your seat belt on.’ It’s a time you can really reflect, sleep, catch up with yourself, watch a couple of movies.” Some might argue that he’s had nothing but time to reflect in the last year, but I understand. It’s different. Here, in New York, he is always connected, always on. There are constant worries and concerns to assuage, logistics to discuss. It’s only when he’s in flight, on longer trips to Asia or Europe, where he operates Jean-Georges at the Connaught and the Connaught Grill in London and Market in Paris, that he can truly relax. Plus, like many successful businessmen, Vongerichten thrives on routine, which also serves to foster his creativity and inspiration. A normal month in his life pre-Covid would have included seven to ten days of travel. In March, he’d land in northeast Asia — from Tokyo to Shanghai to Guangzhou to Hong Kong and back. April was for Europe, starting in London, followed by the Eurostar to Paris. Every month there was a different continent. “For me, traveling meant exploring different markets around the world. We’d go out to eat every day and come back to New York with 30 or 40 new ideas, new combinations, new things we tried on the road. We’d always come back with so much inspiration.” He acknowledges that he can get inspired remotely, on Instagram (and does), but nothing compares with the real deal. But then, he has the real deal right here in New York City. For although he loves exploring new cuisine around the world, there is nothing he loves more than the Big Apple — and the 14 restaurants he has here, plus a 15th on the way, prove it. “New York has the best of everything,” he declares. “You can choose what you want to be. It has the best of everything to offer in every single neighborhood, and it’s inclusive, a place of creativity with a landscape of different ethnicities coming from everywhere.” The City that Never Sleeps also, unsurprisingly, houses the restaurant of his that he feels is most reflective of himself: Jean-Georges, the high-end eatery he opened in 1997 to rave reviews (including four stars from The New York Times, three separate times) that is considered to be, by most, the crown jewel of his empire. It’s a restaurant where men wear jackets to dine on two-Michelin-starred seasonal fare that exquisitely blends the best of French, American and Asian cuisine. It’s endlessly chic, thanks to an intimate dining room designed by Thomas Juul-Hansen, with custom lighting by L’Observatoire and floor-to-ceiling windows that offer picture-perfect views of Central Park and Columbus Circle. “All of the restaurants reflect my personal style; they have my DNA in them,” he says. “[But] Jean-Georges is the only one where we offer a tasting menu, and I believe that food is to be shared. Plus, the way I enjoy eating is by having a little bit of everything.” Which brings me to the rationale behind his greatest undertaking yet: the behemoth food hall Tin Building at South Street Seaport, adjacent to Pier 17. “It was an old fish market that existed for 85 years, and about 20 years ago, it moved to the Bronx,” he says. “The building was closed, dangling, @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 19

almost hanging over the river, so we decided to redevelop it. It will be a food hall, a bit like Eataly here in New York or Harrods in London. We’ll have many different venues in there, including a barista, a bakery, a flower shop, an egg counter, a raw bar, a brasserie, a small Japanese restaurant, a deli and a candy store. On the second floor, we’ll have Italian, tacos, a beer garden, a vegetarian restaurant and a Chinese restaurant. It’s going to be a collection of all the types of food that have passed by there for the last 200 years. It’s my first food hall ever.” The project is a massive undertaking — it’s a 55,000-square-foot space — that he’s been working on for the past six years with his partner, Howard Hughes. “We have something really spectacular, really unique here. It’s the biggest project we have ever taken on, and it’s very complicated to do because we are recreating the entire space,” he says. “We had to dismantle the building, but we made sure to keep all the walls because it’s a historical landmark. We had to cut the platform — we even had a diver going underwater cutting every single piling at the mud line! — and replant a pile of concrete and steel into the river. It was definitely a labor of love.” Currently, he’s designing the interiors with Roman and Williams, the architecture firm responsible for hot spots like Le CouCou and Dirty French, a “great firm that really understands New York”; the project is on track to open next year. And although he feels an affinity with restaurant Jean-Georges, this might be his most deeply personal project to date. “This was actually the first place I went to when I arrived in New York in 1986. I went to this fish market the next day at 3 in the morning. It’s a really great memory for me.” Just like his 64th birthday. Nearly one year to the day after ringing in his 63rd with an imminent lockdown and uncertainty, he recently celebrated in hopeful style: with a vaccination, champagne and caviar, and close family and friends. 20 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com

JEAN-GEORGES VONGERICHTEN:
HOW I GIVE BACK “It has always been important to me to give back to the restaurant industry and those in need. In 2016, with my daughter Louise, I founded Food Dreams, a nonprofit foundation that aims at helping passionate individuals throughout the world gain access to culinary education and career opportunities in the restaurant industry that would otherwise be out of reach. However, because schools have been closed more or less since the beginning of the pandemic, this year we used the funding to buy products to donate to Food Bank for New York City. We provided bags of pantry staples such as rice, lentils, tomatoes, frozen meat and potatoes to families in need. One bag contained enough to feed a family of four for a week. We started doing this in May 2020, and it went through the end of the year. Additionally, when we announced that we were closing the restaurants in March of last year, we emptied our fridges and gave all the food to our staff. It was a great moment, knowing that we could help our team ahead of a daunting time. We have also maintained a strong relationship with our farmers, continuing to buy from them throughout the pandemic and supporting them in any way we can, whether it’s on social media or via word of mouth.”

GIVE BACK RICK ROSS AND BUSINESS PARTNER TOMMY DUNCAN DISCUSS LAUNCHING THEIR PHILANTHROPIC HEALTH CARE EFFORT, JETDOC, IN GEORGIA. BY LAURA SCHREFFLER
RICK ROSS IS PUTTING HIS MONEY WHERE HIS MOUTH IS.
Haute Living: What inspired you to create Jetdoc? Tommy Duncan: There were two key moments that drove me to create Jetdoc. [The] first thing that brought me here was when I had a stroke at the age of 30 and saw firsthand how hard it is to navigate the health care system when you really need it. I was and still am a pretty healthy person — I come from a family who ran hospitals! The second was just where timing met intention. The pandemic started just after I sold my first company, a B2B health care insurance business. Jetdoc had been in my head for years, and I knew I wanted my next company to address how we, specifically minorities, interact with the health care system — since we see the almost daily research on how we’re disproportionately without coverage or proper care. When I realized how the pandemic was hitting our communities so hard, 22 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com
I expedited developing Jetdoc. I really want people to embrace health and make it part of their lifestyle. So that’s what Jetdoc is all about: breaking the barriers down and making access to doctors easy, convenient and affordable. Rick Ross: Like [what inspired] Tommy, [for me] it was personal. After a few health scares and seeing friends pass away at a young age from preventable issues, I wanted to see how I could get involved in helping my people. So when I first met Tommy and he started to tell me about Jetdoc and his vision for the future of it, it was right in line with how I wanted to get involved.

The rapper and entrepreneur is backing Jetdoc, a telehealth and virtual-urgent-care app dedicated to connecting users with medical professionals in an effective way. Jetdoc, which is currently available on Google Play and the App Store, uses a personalized and interactive interface that lets patients securely connect with licensed medical professionals from the comfort of their own home in just minutes. Recently, Ross and Jetdoc’s founder and CEO, Tommy Duncan, announced that the service is available in Georgia, providing immediate and affordable virtual health care to millions in the state in under five minutes for just $20. As part of their launch, Ross and Duncan are spending $1 million to offer one free doctor visit to every Georgian through the service — no credit card required or strings attached. We sat down with Ross and Duncan to discuss the rhyme and reason behind their mission.
HL: How did you come on board, Rick? What brought this to your attention? RR: We met through a mutual friend, Kasim Reed, the former mayor of Atlanta. Tommy has known Kasim for years, and Kasim mentioned to me that he had a friend working on something I might be interested in. He set up the meeting, and the rest is history! HL: You invested $1 million of your own money in this. Why is Jetdoc so personally important to you? RR: It’s really about investing in my people. Trying to arm them with what they need to live healthy and happy lives. When we were growing up, we didn’t have a lot of resources. Our parents didn’t have the means to give us preventative health care. In my household, you were either “fine, sick or injured.” The first two, you better get up and go to school or work. Fight through it. If you were injured, that’s when we’d go to the doctor. And that’s no fault of theirs. Between costs and access, seeing a doctor often wasn’t realistic. So we want to invest in helping our folks have that access — and have the power to give that access to others. HL: Have you ever been in need of a doctor and thought, “I can’t get access to health care”? RR: Before I began my rap career, yes. Seeing the doctor was the last resort. And that’s most people I grew up with, from the street hustlers to the teachers. Seeing a doctor or going to a hospital was the last resort. Because going to the hospital meant time off work, and most of us couldn’t afford to take time off work. HL: Telehealth is becoming bigger and bigger. What sets you apart from the other telehealth apps? TD: Jetdoc sets itself apart in a few ways — but most importantly in convenience and cost. It’s just $10 a month to see a doctor as many times as you want. Same price as your Spotify or Hulu subscription. That’s unheard of. Or see a doctor just one time for $20 a visit, no commitment required. And you’ll see them in minutes, not days or weeks. After your visit, you’ll receive a discount prescription card, too, up to 85 percent off! You’re saving all the way around. RR: One of the things I’m excited about with Jetdoc is the ability to gift someone a doctor visit. We all know someone who is sick and might refuse to go see a doctor about it. With Jetdoc, you can
gift someone a doctor visit for just $20. We really want people to incorporate health care into their everyday routine, like we send people an Uber or food. HL: Do people need insurance to use Jetdoc? RR: No! No insurance is required to use Jetdoc. And if you do have insurance, Jetdoc is a great complement — it works along with most major health care insurance providers. HL: What about prescriptions? How does that work? TD: When you sign up, you receive a Jetdoc prescription card. We’ve worked directly with our networks to bring prescription costs down: up to 85 percent off. We’ve seen that we’re not just competitive, we’re often beating most insurance companies on prescription costs. After your visit, if your doctor has a prescription for you, it’s sent to your pharmacy of choice. You can use it at Walgreens, CVS or almost any pharmacy in the country. HL: What’s next for Jetdoc? RR: Our most immediate goal is to make sure we service our people in Georgia, as we just launched there. And next is more states. We’re rolling out state by state to ensure we have enough medical professionals to cover everyone and we can deliver on our promise to make sure they can see a doctor in just minutes. HL: What’s next for you professionally otherwise, Rick? RR: More music, for sure. I’m recording now and hope to have some performance dates soon. Now that we’re starting to open the country back up, I’m looking forward to doing shows and touring again. Also, of course, my involvement with [brands such as] BelAire Rose, Wingstop and Checkers. Just making sure I’m feeding the streets, either in their ear with the music, their stomach with the food or their hearts with Jetdoc. Just leaving a legacy. HL: Why is Jetdoc a luxury? What are some other luxuries you can’t live without? RR: Health is most definitely a luxury. And if you can have a doctor on standby for whatever you need? That’s luxury! And that’s what we want to give to everyone with Jetdoc. But for me, personally? I came from the bottom, so I lived most of my life without the basics. There aren’t many things I can’t live without. But one thing I love? My cars. My old schools! I’m a car guy. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 23

+LAND OR SEA Louis Vuitton rethinks the diving watch with its new Street Diver collection.
LAUNCHED IN 2002, THE TAMBOUR WAS THE WATCH THAT
put Louis Vuitton on the map in the world of haute horlogerie. Over the years, it amassed a loyal group of admirers, not least because the company was always innovating new varieties of the model while keeping it instantly recognizable. Inspired by the shape of a drum, the Tambour is one of the very few watches that is larger at the base than at the bezel. It further expresses its pedigree with the words “Louis Vuitton” engraved in the case band. Really, the design is timeless; the Tambour looks as contemporary today as it did back in 2002. Louis Vuitton has always excelled in knowing exactly what its clients want. With the Street Diver, the brand has created a diving watch as it is worn and appreciated the most: as a fashionable statement on the wrist that spends most of its time outside the water. In its design, the company emphasized its utilitarian character by playing with color. The elapsed minutes, an essential feature of any diving watch, can be measured by the internal rotating bezel, which is operated by the color-contrasting crown placed between 1 and 2 o’clock. It is color-matched by the hour markers and the minute hand, which cleverly resembles the iconic Louis Vuitton “V.” While looking good comes naturally for the Street Diver, that doesn’t mean it’s out of its element in the water.

Thanks to its screw-down crown, internal rotating diving bezel and 100-meter water-resistance, it is a capable companion when going (scuba) diving. The company is launching four different versions of the Street Diver, each highlighting different colors. The Neon Black features a case made from stainless steel with a black PVD coating, offering a stunning contrast with the neon yellow accents that give the watch a lot of character. It is the only watch in the Street Diver collection that also has a bezel with a PVD coating, giving it more of a tool-watch appearance. The Tambour Street Diver Skyline Blue has a blue PVD coating on its case, which stands out against the bezel of polished stainless steel. The vibrant shade of light blue makes the watch’s details stand out against its dark blue backdrop in an almost nautical way. The Tambour Street Diver Black Blaze combines black PVD-coated elements with pink gold, creating a rich contrast. All three watches have a 44mm large case and are fitted with an automatic movement that can be admired through the sapphire caseback with Louis Vuitton logo. The fourth new design, the Tambour Street Diver Pacific White, is the most elegant, and it is also the smallest. Its case measures 39.5mm in diameter, and it is crafted from polished stainless steel. It the only one fitted with a quartz movement instead of an automatic caliber.

to its original 36mm diameter. Powered by caliber 3230, it is a refined sports watch that you can take to the ends of the earth (and back), but it goes equally well with a suit and tie. Rolex underscores this versatility by making the new Explorer also available in Rolesor, withthe case and bracelet combining stainless steel with gold. Those looking for a slightly larger yet equally robust watch will be well served by the Explorer II, also in a new generation. Measuring 42mm in diameter, it offers plenty of room to display two time zones, thanks to its characteristic set of hands. Rolex has optimized the Chromalight display, which means the numerals glow bright blue in low-light conditions but look remarkably white otherwise. Performance and precision are ensured by caliber 3285, with automatic winding and patented Chronergy escapement.

The difference a dial can make becomes especially clear with the new Datejust 36. Rolex has a rich tradition of creating a wide variety of dials, in particular for the Datejust and DayDate collections. This is done in-house, as the brand has its own dial manufacture. That also enables it to make the new palm motif, for which a special laser was used. The new fluted dial motif adds an extra layer of depth and refinement to the watch. New dials were also in the stars for the Daytona — quite literally, as they are made from meteorite. The distinctive pattern of these rocks from space, which becomes visible after they have been cut and treated with acid, gives the Daytona extra appeal and makes this chronograph even more exclusive than it already was. Rolex is offering these new dials on the white gold model with Oysterflex bracelet and on the yellow and Everose gold models with matching bracelets.
Rolex and diamonds have been synonymous for decades, and it is a tradition the brand is continuing with great passion and expertise. This year it plays with color as it launches the Day-Date 36 on an alligator leather strap with a pave-set case, dial and bracelet. Available in yellow, white, or Everose gold, each featuring Roman numerals in a distinct color, they put pave-set watches once again firmly on the map. Their appearance is bold and distinct but also refreshingly modern. For ladies who enjoy a watch with a full pave setting, Rolex now offers the 28 mm Lady-Datejust. Fitted with perpetual caliber 2236, this watch features a case, bezel, dial and bracelet set with brilliant-cut diamonds in yellow gold, which gives it a classic appearance. Subtle details make all the difference, with not only the perfectly set diamonds but also the black Roman numerals, which seem to float above the dials. This gives the watch an undeniably luxurious appearance in the way only Rolex can.

+Pure transparency Hublot’s New Big Bang Integral Tourbillon Full Sapphire takes transparency to the next level.
AT HUBLOT, THEY HAVE A PASSION FOR MATERIALS.
Whether it’s gold, ceramic, or sapphire, they love to see if they can improve it or give it a color that has never been achieved before. In 2016, the brand introduced its very first sapphire watch, and things developed quickly. Not only was the company able to create sapphire in different colors, but it could also make them in modest volume. (While this sounds less exclusive, the production process of sapphire watches is so intensive that being able to make more of them is a major achievement.) Hublot kicked off Watches & Wonders 2021 with another amazing accomplishment: a Big Bang Integral Tourbillon where both the case and bracelet are made of sapphire. Hublot went for ultimate transparency with the sapphire bracelet, which also made it a challenging feat to accomplish. No compromises were allowed, so the bracelet needed to remain as transparent as possible, while flexibility, durability and wearing comfort all had to be at the highest level. Hublot achieved this by cleverly screwing each link into the next with the help of titanium inserts that take as little away from the transparency of the sapphire as possible. Hublot CEO Ricardo Guadalupe tells more about how this unique watch came to be. “For such an exceptional creation, we opted for the new Automatic Tourbillon caliber with its
32 HAUTE LIVING hautetime.com
sapphire bridges, the transparency of which creates a stunning spectacle. The act of creating an integrated case and bracelet from sapphire was deemed impossible. But we were the first brand to gain perfect mastery of sapphire, industrializing it and making it reproducible in series production. It took us five years to bring our first sapphire cases to life, and almost as long for the bracelet. Producing both from sapphire and integrating them together is the pinnacle of the in-depth work undertaken by Hublot’s teams. We are proud to be the ones writing the first lines in this new chapter in the history of materials.” As Guadalupe points out, such an exquisite creation must be combined with one of the best movements the brand has to offer: in this case, Hublot’s latest manufacture caliber HUB6035, which combines a tourbillon with automatic winding. This is done by placing a 22-karat white gold micro-rotor at 12 o’clock. As most of the movement’s bridges, including the main plate, are also made from sapphire, the watch’s transparent nature takes full effect. Hublot will make 30 pieces of the Big Bang Integral Tourbillon Full Sapphire at the price of $422,000. Those owners will get to wear a groundbreaking watch that signals the start of a new era for Hublot as it further pursues the possibilities of this exciting new achievement.

a powerful visual impact. With part of its gear train placed on the dial side, accompanied by a high-tech flying carrousel, it is a true horological delicacy that won’t go unnoticed. The new Freak X Razzle Dazzle is even more of an eye-catcher. The pattern is reminiscent of a zebra, an animal that uses its stripes to conceal itself and confuse predators. (During World War I, the British Royal Navy painted its ships with a similar pattern, hoping to confuse the enemy to such an extent that it was hard(er) for them to place a hit.) Of course, it later became quite a popular pattern in fashion and the art scene. The reason is rather obvious, as the geometrical pattern is captivating, close to hypnotizing. To achieve the pattern with the high quality required by Ulysse Nardin, a combination of three different techniques is used. A laser makes the intricate shapes on the movement parts, after which a combination of electroplating and galvanic treatment with lacquer give it its final appearance. Ulysse Nardin will make 30 of the Freak X Razzle Dazzle, with strap options in black or white, both featuring “point de bride” stitching that match the watch nicely. What all 30 pieces also have in common is the 43mm case made from titanium, featuring sandblasted and satin finishes, as well as a DLC coating. The automatic movement has a power reserve of 72 hours and comes with a flying carrousel, visible at the front, which makes a full rotation every hour. A pioneer in the use of silicium, Ulysse Nardin features this innovative material in both the balance wheel and the oversize oscillator.

true haute + Acomplication The new Ref. 5236P-001 In-line Perpetual Calendar is a first for Patek Philippe. BY MARTIN GREEN
PHOTOS COURTESY OF PATEK PHILIPPE
THE PERPETUAL CALENDAR HAS ALWAYS HELD AN
important place in the history of Patek Philippe. In 1925, the brand launched its very first perpetual calendar wristwatch, and in 1941 it introduced Ref.1518, combining the perpetual calendar with a chronograph, something that had never been done before on a watch made in series. The company always had a strong presence when it came to pocket watches as well, and in 1972, it introduced a novel perpetual calendar with in-line display. Now, part of its rich legacy in this field merges with the introduction of the new Ref. 5236P-001 In-line Perpetual Calendar. Fitted in a 41.3mm Calatrava case made from platinum and combined with a blue lacquered dial with black gradation, the Ref. 5236P-001 is subtle in appearance, perfectly setting the stage to let the unique in-line perpetual calendar function shine. Day, date and month are positioned in a single window under the Patek Philippe brand name. The symmetry is continued at the lower part of the dial, where the subdial for
the seconds also houses the moon phase indicator. It is flanked on the right with the leap-year indicator, while day or night is shown through the hole on the left. With this balanced appearance, the Ref. 5236P-001 looks simple while it is, in fact, a very complex watch. No less than three new patents are incorporated in the movement. To make this unique display of the perpetual calendar possible, Patek Philippe used caliber 31-260 as a base movement. This movement is a reliable performer and looks especially beautiful. Patek Philippe tuned it to be perfect for the Ref. 5236P-001 by changing the micro-rotor from gold to platinum for more mass and increasing the rate to 4 Hz/28,800 vph. This results in better rate stability and increased precision. The movement now also uncouples the automatic winding system as soon as the watch is wound manually to reduce wear. With the Ref. 5236P-001, Patek Philippe is continuing its legacy as a pioneer in perpetual calendars and confirming the important place this complication holds within its collection. @hautetime HAUTE LIVING 37

Haute GOOD NEWS FOR SPEED LOVERS: THE LAND ROVER DEFENDER
has received its first upgrade since its reintroduction with the new 525PS Defender V8 and flagship Defender V8 Carpathian Edition, both of which provide a unique combination of performance and capability, with bespoke chassis settings delivering new levels of driver engagement and agility both on and off-road. The 2022 Defender V8 has both three-door 90 as well as fivedoor 110. The Defender V8 Carpathian Edition combines the power and capability of Defender V8 with a unique combination of design elements, including new trim packages. The Bright Pack, Extended Bright Pack and Extended Black Pack feature bespoke exterior trim to enhance Defender’s unmistakable silhouette. Inside, the Defender V8 Carpathian Edition features the same upgrades as the V8, with seats finished in Miko Suedecloth with Robustec accents, an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel and illuminated treadplates. The recyclable PU-based wrap is applied to the external bodywork, giving the 4x4 a contemporary semimatte finish that also protects against everything from car park scratches to off-road bramble rash. “The introduction of our V8 powertrain adds a new dimension of driving engagement and off-road capability to Defender,” says David Hemming, chief product engineer for Jaguar Land Rover. “Fast and fun to drive, it represents the pinnacle of the Defender family and is as rewarding on the road as it is capable off it. We’ve also broadened the appeal of the entire Defender lineup with new derivatives, option packs and enhanced connectivity, so there really is a Defender for everyone.” This SUV is powered with a robust 5.0-litre V8 supercharged petrol engine, the fastest and most powerful production version for 4x4 yet, which produces 525PS, 625Nm of torque and drives through an eight-speed automatic transmission. The Defender V8 90 accelerates from 0-60mph in just 4.9 seconds (0-100km/h in 5.2 seconds), with a top speed of 149mph (240km/h). If you are concerned about the emissions and environmental aspects of the SUV, Land Rover offers a 2.0-liter Ingenium I4 or mild hybrid 3.0-liter turbocharged Ingenium I6, where the latter produces 395 horses and 406 ft-lbs of twist and the former produces 296 horses and 295 ft-lbs of twist. The V8 petrol engine isn’t the only new introduction. There’s also a new XS Edition, which offers fresh exterior design packs that provide greater personalization potential and an optional larger 11.4-inch Pivi Pro infotainment touchscreen that’s 60 percent larger than the standard screen. The Pivi Pro system can be easily customized to suit the preferences of individual customers. Additional app “panels” can be added, moved and removed, while swiping left or right on the screen quickly reveals the most relevant information at a glance, ensuring the driver’s concentration stays on the road. Consumers have a choice of three colors: Carpathian Grey, Yulong White and Santorini Black, or Carpathian Grey and Yulong White with a contrast roof in Narvik Black. Prices for the Defender V8 start at £98,505 for the 90 and £101,150 OTR for the 110 in the U.K. For more information and to configure the new Defender, visit www.landrover.com/Defender.

THE LATEST CONTINENTAL GT SPEED IS THE MOST DYNAMIC ROAD CAR
in Bentley’s 101-year history. Exuding the ultimate performance-focused interpretation of the world’s benchmark luxury Grand Tourer, the car was designed, engineered, developed and handcrafted in Bentley’s carbon-neutral luxury automotive factory. This third-generation model is built on a long tradition of Speed variants. Building further on the first-generation Continental GT Speed in 2007, which was inspired by the 3-Litre Speed models of the 1920s, the latest GT Speed continues the bloodline by representing the ultimate combination of luxury and performance in a Grand Touring package. “The new Continental GT Speed represents the very pinnacle of performance grand touring,” says Matthias Rabe, member of the Board for Engineering at Bentley Motors. “This new model is the most powerful expression of Continental GT values, exciting and dynamic, with unique Speed detailing to enhance the ownership experience and offering customers more control over the character of the car.” The new Bentley Continental GT Speed is a driver’s car. The Electronic AllWheel Steering enhances its dynamic nature in Bentley and Comfort driving modes. However, this is even more apparent in Sport mode. The steering combines with Bentley Dynamic Ride and an electronic limited-slip differential for a level of agility unlike any other Bentley road car.
Featuring an Active All-Wheel drive, the traction control and torque distribution have been recalibrated in all driver modes to provide a noticeable character shift relative to Continental GT. Maintaining Bentley’s philosophy of the vehicle feeling progressive and secure yet still dynamic, this approach rewards drivers of all abilities. For the first time in a Bentley, the latest generation of the Continental GT Speed introduces the use of an electronic rear differential (eLSD) that provides increased lateral capacity, improved longitudinal stability, enhanced on-throttle adjustability and better traction in adverse road conditions. The new Continental GT Speed is blessed with a muscular bodywork inspired by the original. Unique exterior detailing complements a powerful, athletic stance, blending seamlessly with the Continental GT’s effortless elegance. This model also adds a Dark Tint radiator grille and lower bumper grille and unique, more-sculpted sports sills, a Dark Tint radiator matrix, and discreet Speed badging in chrome on the front fender. The 22” Speed wheels in bright silver are another signature feature, with the option of a dark tint or black gloss finish. The new four-seater Continental GT Speed interior redefines luxury and showcases Bentley’s expertise in creating the world’s most refined automotive interiors. Handcrafted materials blend with unique trim and badging that are only available in the Speed and can be further personalized with a choice of 15 primary and 11 secondary hide colors and the use of leather in lieu of Alcantara for the Speed color split. Bentley’s Diamond in Diamond quilting is included as standard, and Speed embroidered headrests distinguish the cabin of the most potent Continental GT. A range of veneers is available, with Piano Black veneer as standard. Customers can also choose Crown Cut Walnut, Dark Stained Burr Walnut or Dark Fiddleback Eucalyptus at no extra cost, with three open-pore options (Dark Burr Walnut, Crown Cut Walnut and Koa) available as additional choices. The car is equipped with an uprated version of Bentley’s renowned 6.0-litre W12 TSI engine, delivering 659 PS (650 bhp) – a 4 percent increase of 24 PS over the current W12 model – while maintaining an extraordinary 900 Nm (664 lb. ft) of torque. It can reach 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, while the top speed is measured at 208 mph (335 km/h). It is also equipped with the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) System, which allows the driver to experience an even greater level of freedom before the Speed’s safety systems intervene to correct any anomalies. The official price has not yet been announced, but the top-of-the-line variant is expected to start at $202,500 for the Continental GT V8 and $218,900 for the Continental GT W12.

CRESCERE MEANS “TO GROW” IN LATIN, AND THE REVOLUTIONARY DESIGN
of this superyacht by U.S.-based designer J. David Weiss brings forward more eco-friendly technologies, offering the persona of a modern-day luxury vessel with a fresher, greener outlook. The uncluttered, clean line of this 132-meter boat is a sharp and futuristic nod to the future of superyachts. “It’s not designed purely as a ‘party boat,’” says Weiss. “The space allocation instead follows a dual-use owner vision of ‘Rest + ReCreate,’ with all interior social ‘ReCreate’ spaces localized inside the naturally lit and openable greenhouse, and ‘Rest’ spaces in the surrounding darker, quieter ‘cocoon’ areas.” The Crescere has its own tropical garden and a greenhouse core. Weiss aimed to make the boat spacious and airy, a place where the guests can relax. The lounge has an intelligent watering system controlled autonomously via custom software and a raft of sensors. The massive glass areas blur the distinction between the guests and the nature around them, and they also bring in abundant sunlight, reducing the need for artificial lights. The tender can carry cars, so the owner can take along their car collection. The highlight has to be the built-in saltwater pool. The 52-by-10-foot lap pool disappears when not in use and cleverly transforms into a helipad. To access the pool, glass panels rise out of the foredeck while high-speed pumps fill it with saltwater. The hull is retro-inspired, taking cues from a classic sailboat. However, its heart is as advanced as it can get. Powered by a hybrid power train of electric and diesel, the engine is accompanied by biofuel generators and solar panels, which charge the big battery banks. The electric motors are used for everyday purposes, while the diesel power source is used when additional speed is required. Though it’s a large yacht, Crescere has an ample 40 mph speed, akin to smaller vessels. In all, Crescere is poised to be a globally recognized mega vessel with the soul of a smaller, sportier yacht, with a green conscience to boot.

EXPLORER YACHTS ARE A SIGHT TO BEHOLD. THE LATEST BY
KM Yachtbuilders is special in every way. Under construction since early in the summer of 2019, the 23.7-meter superyacht was built for a second-time adventurer of the Arctic and Antarctic region. She takes her name, Vinson of Antarctica, after the highest mountain on the Antarctic continent. The yacht will soon commence its sea trials from the Makkum shipyard on the North Sea, and the first trip will be to Norway. After the summer, the crew plans to sail to South America, ending at Puerto Williams in Chile, the southernmost inhabited place in the world. The Vinson of Antarctica is a design by Tony Castro Design and is based on the 22.5-meter Pelagic Australis, which was the result of adventurer Skip Novak’s first 14 years of high latitude sailing. Founder Peter Wilson of MCM Newport said in a statement: “I was honored to be asked by the project team to join them in 2018, sharing with them the construction and management expertise acquired through over 90 MCM projects to date. KM Yachtbuilders had already been selected to build the yacht. With their long track record in building go-anywhere yachts, they were a perfect match for this project. With a team consisting of Novak, Castro and KMY, it wasn’t a hard choice for me to join them. We all look forward to testing Vinson in the brutal North Atlantic soon.” The Pelagic 77 Vinson of Antarctica features two carbon masts so that the sail area is distributed and all sail systems, such as winches and jib rollers, can still be operated by hand. For the rest, the superyacht is powered by twin Yanmar engines at 150 hp, with well-protected propellers, a workshop forward to allow running repairs at sea and a diesel stove in the aft saloon. The superyacht has a beam of 6.3 meters and rather minimalist décor, mostly bamboo furniture. Onboard guests can relax in the comfortable living area of the large pilothouse or the stern gallery. The superyacht can host eight guests and a crew of three. It has six double cabins and two communal toilets and showers. The vessel will be used for charter trips from Puerto Williams, as well as for private purposes.
JADE MOUNTAIN ST. LUCIA
The jaw-droppingly beautiful Jade Mountain resort on the southwestern Caribbean coastline of St. Lucia is more than just a pretty face: it’s also a cornucopia of organic architecture and eco-resilience. The property’s design reinforces its connection to the natural environment with passive ventilation of the rooms and natural daylighting;it does not use artificial cooling or lighting, in order to conserve energy resources and minimize its carbon footprint. An exterior plaza was designed to capture rainwater in koi ponds and planting areas, which is then harvested for use in the resort’s restaurants. Only indigenous plants were used in the landscaping, which minimizes the need for watering and protects a precious resource. And guests can do more than enjoy the beautiful scenery from a private infinity pool in their room with a view (which entirely lacks a fourth wall in the bid to be at one with nature): all are given the opportunity to learn about the resort’s sustainability programs and actively participate through environmental activities such as reef cleaning and tree planting.

BAWAH RESERVE On Indonesia’s Anambas archipelago, lesser known than Bali but every bit as beautiful, rests Bawah Reserve, an untapped paradise comprised of six islands, 13 beaches and three lagoons with 100 hectares of forest. Sustainability is at the core of this property, which was designed by architect Sim Boon Yang with eco-sensitivity in mind. As such, villas have been positioned around large trees;roofs are thatched with palm leaves from a neighboring island;all tented suites and public areas are made of bamboo and recycled teak;bath and shower areas are made from recycled copper;and the tables and chairs are fashioned from flotsam. The Earth-first philosophy includes solar water heating, rainwater catchment and water desalination systems, and a zero-waste program with extensive recycling, plastic-free environment and all-encompassing marine and forest conservation practices. Bawah Reserve even has its own foundation — the Anambas Foundation — which works toward marine and forest conservation. The resort also features overwater bungalows, a rare find in Indonesia and more commonly seen in the Maldives, made out of recycled wood, and this year will launch the Elang Private Residence — six sustainably minded lodges on a previously untouched island. This distinctive design vision has resulted in a resort that feels earthy and organic yet cool, decadent and pampering, too.

One of the coolest hotels slated to open in the next year packs a massive green punch. That would be Svart, the world’s first energy-positive hotel. Located in Arctic Norway at the base of the Svartisen glacier, this glass-fronted, circular structure actually floats on stilts above the Holandsfjorden fjord. It aims to be fully off grid, carbon neutral and zero waste within its first five years of operation. As created by innovative Danish designers Space Copenhagen, Svart will house an indoor-outdoor spa, four restaurants, an education center and a design laboratory, with two electric boats on the property to facilitate transfers and activities. Guests will enjoy exhilarating arctic experiences year-round, from ice climbing on the glacier to practicing yoga under the midnight sun, as well as wildlife spotting, diving and fishing.

FOGO ISLAND INN CANADA
TRAVEL

Fogo Island Inn might feel like the farthest-flung corner of the planet, and rest assured, that’s intentional. In fact, the inn, built by Norway-based architect Todd Saunders, sits on an island off an island on the Newfoundland coast, with 29 unique guest rooms and suites that showcase dramatic views of the Atlantic Ocean. Its menu always reflects the region: the ingredients guests will find on their plates are fished, hunted, farmed and foraged right on or around the island, such as crab, scallops with parsnips and rhubarb jelly, salt cod and shaved turnip, and cured local sheep leg. The property’s architecture and operational systems ensure the highest levels of energy efficiency and resource conservation via an insulated steel frame, while rainwater from the roof is collected in two cisterns and subsequently filtered for use in toilets, laundry and kitchen appliances. And how’s this for innovative? The owner, Shorefast, a registered Canadian charity, has even developed its own Economic Nutrition notification system, a label allowing consumers to make conscious choices about how their purchases will impact the local and global economy. Truly, this is regenerative tourism at its finest.
MASHPI LODGE ECUADOR

Those seeking the ultimate sustainable stay should search out the wonders provided by Mashpi Lodge, set on some 6,000 acres of rainforest in the heart of the Chocó Bioregion of the Ecuadorian Andes. Within the protected reserve, which features rooms made with glass walls — designed to blend with the natural environment, like a luxury cocoon in the midst of the forest — dwells an amazing range of biodiversity, which is now in danger. This is why the “green hotel in the clouds” has partnered with Forest Guardians. The NGO Rainforest Connection-developed initiative leverages common technology in the service of conservation, affixing trees with inconspicuous “stations” composed of a recycled cell phone, a microphone and solar panels for continuous power to perform “bio-acoustic monitoring” for the detection of intrusive sounds of humanity (such as buzzing chainsaws) and pinpoint their location, so that rangers can stop violators in real time and protect elements like Mashpi’s Life Center, a magical structure where tayras and tropical birds come to feed.

BARDESSONO CALIFORNIA
A stay here marries luxury with living “deep green” for the most discerning of travelers. Eco-developers built Napa Valley mainstay Bardessono — one of only seven LEED Platinum Certified hotels in the United States, and one of only 28 worldwide — with 100,000 square feet of salvaged wood, found throughout on doors, floors and guest room walls, as well as in the spa, restaurant (Lucy, which uses only locally sourced ingredients picked fresh from its California Certified Organic Farming garden each day) and event space. The hotel’s carbon footprint includes the use of organic linens and cleaning supplies, which go through recycling and compost programs; usage of an underground geothermal system that heats and cools the guest rooms, spa and domestic hot water supply; 200 square feet of glass in each room, which reduces daytime lighting requirements; and automatic thermostats that reduce excess energy demands. Low water-flow fixtures, dual-flush toilets and waterless urinals are used to conserve water, while a 200-kilowatt solar energy system provides the majority of the electrical energy requirement. And you can also be the change: for each guest who opts out of housecleaning to support a more sustainable future, the property plants an herb in its onsite certified organic culinary garden.
SIX SENSES BOTANIQUE The newest hotel in the Six Senses portfolio, Six Senses Botanique, an emerald gem located just two and a half hours from São Paulo and three and a half hours from Rio de Janeiro, is also one of the most sustainable. The property, which lies at the confluence of three river valleys in the heart of the Mantiqueira Mountains (known as the “mountains that weep,” due to the abundance of springs and rivers), will appeal to guests seeking an eco-retreat in nature along with authentic Brazilian design, culture and cuisine. It is blessed with seven springs that provide guests with their own mineral water, as well as a water treatment station to return clean water back to nature; seven suites, all of which were constructed modularly, using local materials and sited to minimize their impact on the surrounding flora and fauna; farm-to-table herbs, fruits and vegetables, grown in the resort’s own organic gardens and farm and served at its Mina restaurant and Fire Side lounge; a spa that features an interactive workshop, “The Alchemist’s Body,” to teach guests about locally sourced ingredients and products; and unique Reconnection Experiences, which allow guests to get back in touch with themselves and loved ones while exploring the surrounding natural environment.

Heckfield Place, located in the beautiful Hampshire countryside, might look like something from the past, but it’s fully evolved into a locale of the future. This 250-yearold Georgian property achieved 100 percent biodynamic certification this year, making it the only hotel in the U.K. to have its onsite farm so accredited. The 438-acre hotel goes above and beyond organic to grow “preparations” (otherwise known as herbal remedies), as well as its own natural skincare products. But then, everything about Heckfield Place is aces in its bid for sustainability, including plastic-free rooms with natural materials sourced locally (like rush mats and headboards from the River Ouse); the curation of its own produce; composting its own waste; raising pigs, sheep and chickens; a biodynamic nursery; and the use of a biomass energy center for hot water and heating. Last year, Heckfield Place even opened its own micro-dairy in order to generate its own cream, butter and yogurt; its 38 Guernsey cows also provide biodynamic milk, for an exquisite cheese.
KACHI LODGE BOLIVIA

Travel to a remote corner of the world an hour’s flight from La Paz — 12,000 feet high, in search of the salar (a salt-encrusted depression that may or may not be the basin of an evaporated lake) — and you’ll find an oasis of sustainability and originality. On this immense salt flat, set on a wooden platform near a cacti-covered island, is Kachi Lodge. Founder Amazing Escapes pushes the boundaries of sustainable travel to the extreme with six cutting-edge eco-infrastructures and a fierce commitment to local culture and communities. The very creation of the resort abided by a strict environmental policy: no drilling was required; should the lodge be dismantled, one rainy season would erase all traces of its existence. To ensure perfect heating, stoves are installed in each dome: the pellets used to fuel them are made of compressed wood waste. The lodge also runs solely on solar panels that not only heat water but also charge batteries. In fact, the whole energy-efficient camp runs completely on 24V. Last but not least, using reverse osmosis, a unique closed-loop filtering system reduces water consumption, while incineration toilets transform organic material into neutral ash so that no black water treatment is needed. There’s a strict policy against plastic, as well. It might sound rustic, but know that each suite features a unique painting by Gastón Ugalde — internationally known as the Bolivian Andy Warhol — and the chef, Marsia Taha, is globally recognized as one of the best in Bolivia.
JETWING SURF SRI LANKA

Located in Pottuvil, an unspoiled stretch of beach on Sri Lanka’s east coast, Jetwing Surf utilizes a unique style of architecture that will delight the discerning eco-tourist. Each of its 20 seashell-inspired cabanas are built using wood, woven coconut palm leaves and dried illuk grass (all indigenous to Sri Lanka), and their open design reduces the need for artificial illumination and ventilation. Cadjan-covered doublelayered walls allow for the easy flow of fresh air and simultaneously provide a bonus of absolute privacy. It’s paradise for the five-star traveler who dreams of sleeping underneath palm fronds and being at one with nature — all while surfing the day away at Arugam Bay, one of the best surfing destinations in the world, just ten minutes away.
SONEVA FUSHI
THE MALDIVES If paradise was lost, it’s been found again at Soneva Fushi, on an imaginative Maldivian eco-hideaway within touching distance of a UNESCO-protected Biosphere Reserve in the Baa Atoll. Call on your Barefoot Butler, learn to free dive, or indulge in a curated private sandbank dinner — all with the magic of the Maldives as your backdrop. But there’s more to this postcard-perfect place than its indulgent perfection: sustainability is central. Soneva Namoona Baa, a partnership launched by Soneva Fushi and international NGO Common Seas in collaboration with the government of the Maldives and three local islands (Maalhos, Dharavandhoo and Kihaadhoo), demonstrates that a radical reimagining of waste can prevent plastic from leaking into the ocean. In fact, the property’s “waste-to-wealth” center transforms the used articles and materials at the resort into recycled treasure.

Grootbos, one of only ten Global Ecosphere Resorts in the world, is that rare luxury eco-resort that offers a little bit of everything for everyone, in an environment tucked between mountains, forest and sea. But most of all, this private reserve wants to make a positive impact on visitors. It does so through botanical and landscape conservation work (over the course of 23 years, seven new species of plants have been discovered); the formation of a Green Futures vocational college; an extensive sustainability dashboard, with roughly five years of data detailing water management and measurements; the removal of all single-use plastics and, thus, the practice of bottling of its own water; and feeding all organic waste from its kitchens to its Growing the Future farm pigs. Beyond sustainability, this South African resort offers the crème de la crème in every possible way: gorgeous suites in the midst of a milkwood forest, epicurean food and wine journeys from celebrated local vintners, and out-of-the-box experiences such as shark cage diving, botanical tours and marine safaris.
1 HOTEL SOUTH BEACH

MIAMI BEACH
Every detail of the LEED Certified 1 Hotel South Beach, which occupies an entire city block on Collins Avenue, was designed to bring the outside in. As imagined by designers Meyer Davis, that means a plethora of reclaimed woods and locally sourced materials, such as regional coral stone and concrete trough sinks, teak vanities and handblown glass pendant lights. Every element has sustainability in mind, from in-room Nespresso coffee machines with recyclable pods, to state-of-the-art energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, to filtered water in all taps, sinks and showers. Plant the Future further creates green moments throughout the hotel that act as a living art exhibit, including living green walls on the hotel’s façade and in the main ballroom and terrariums in every guest room, and guests can choose an array of nature-inspired experiences, such as stargazing or shopping at a dedicated farmers market. There’s even a charitable component for those who like to do good — local nonprofit partners offer volunteer experiences for guests to contribute to sustaining the local environment — and one for those who like to look good, too: this haute hotel’s house car is a Tesla, and it offers complimentary rides.

SKINCARE
CHAT WITH CZECH An exclusive, one-on-one interview with celebrity esthetician and Dior Skincare Expert Joanna Czech. BY DEYVANSHI MASRANI
GLOBALLY RENOWNED ESTHETICIAN JOANNA CZECH—WHO HAS
Haute Living: Tell me about your approach to skincare overall. JOANNA CZECH: Respect, support and protect are the tenets. I believe in a very customized approach to every person’s skin; lifestyle, [the] climate that they live in and [their] needs are different. I do not overtreat or overexfoliate. I also think it is important to reevaluate skincare routines seasonally. HL: As a Dior Skincare Expert, how does your approach to skincare align with that of Dior’s? JC: Dior and I share the same desire to empower women. When it comes to skincare, less is more, and Capture Totale is a line based on cell energy, which is something I believe is key to slowing down the aging process. And they do it with “clean science,” which is the best way, in my opinion. HL: Is there a part of the face that you often see people mistreat or care for improperly? If yes, how so, and what is the proper way to care for this/these area(s)? JC: People very often forget about the neck and the decolletage. The lipid layer is reduced 30 to 40 percent due to a smaller amount of sebaceous glands in this area. This causes [signs of] aging to appear sooner than they do on the face. While it is not necessary to use specific products, it is important to pay attention to this area and treat it like the face and the body, so it gets double treatment. HL: Let’s talk about the eyes, which are now more important than ever; since we wear masks, the eyes are one of the only parts of our face that are exposed and visible. The eyes are also one of the first parts of the face that show signs of age. What is the ideal morning and evening routine to take care of the skin around our eyes? JC: The day should always begin at night—this is when products are most effective as the skin is at rest [at this time]. Evening Routine: Remove makeup gently; do not rub or tug at the eye area ake sure that your eye care products are applied right before your final M moisturizer so that they are properly absorbed into the skin; if you put them over moisturizer, they can’t get through 64 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com/hautebeauty
If necessary, use a lukewarm eye compress Perform gentle eye area massages Morning Routine: Use draining movements around the eyes to reduce puffiness; ice cubes or cold compresses can also aid in depuffing Exercise the eye area to strengthen the muscles around the eyes Implement products that boost cell energy, like Capture Totale’s Eye Serum Take a few minutes every few hours to rest your eyes HL: When most people think about eye skincare, they tend to focus on the skin beneath the eyes. Should we be paying more attention to the skin above the eyes and next to them, as well? If yes, how so? JC: In my opinion, eye care is taking care of all the skin around your eyes—upper and lower lid, as well as the sides of your eyes. HL: What are some things we should be doing as we go about our day to protect our eyes/eye area? JC: We should be resting the eyes, replenishing moisture throughout the day with product and storing eye products in a refrigerator to create a cryotherapy effect [when used]. HL: Tell me about what makes the Dior Super Potent Eye Serum so special. JC: The triple action effect of the whole product is what makes it special. Biological: The extract of the revitalizing Iongoza plant creates a wave of energy in the skin, while the Active Rye Extract tones and firms. Accetulated low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid is super hydrating, [and when] combined with glycerin, [it] creates even more plumping and smoothing effects. Mechanical: The flexible neck of the applicator makes it a very comfortable tool to use that adapts easily to all of the different eye shapes. Thermal: The head is made of Zamac, which reduces the temperature of the skin, creating a cooling effect. This feature also depuffs the eye area. HL: Who is the Dior Super Potent Eye Serum for? JC: For anyone who needs an eye treatment. You can start using this eye treatment as early as 18 years old, since the first signs of aging can show between between 16 to 18 [years old]; so, incorporating this product can help slow down the signs of aging.
