t’s been exactly one year since the beginning of the end (otherwise known as the eighth and final season premiere of Game of Thrones) and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau has not plummeted into a downward spiral of depression, drowning his sorrows in whiskey, waxing lyrical about the good old days playing Jaime Lannister. Instead, he moved to Los Angeles, started a production company and is preparing to take on Shakespeare—not necessarily in that order—and life, at the moment, is coming up roses (or palm trees, as it were). “I feel great! I haven’t felt any post-traumatic stress or any kind of pain about leaving the show,” the Danish actor admits. “I mean, there was a bit of dust when we had the premiere, but that was kind of it. It settled long ago.” In his opinion, Thrones was a wild, worthwhile ride while it lasted, but he’s been there and done that. With almost a decade as the House of Lannister head under his belt, it was well and truly time to start a new chapter. When the Kingslayer died at the Battle of King’s Landing, it was time to let him rest in peace … and let his flaws (like an incestuous affair with his twin sister) die with him. “It’s funny how very different it was [working on the show], as opposed to how your life is perceived from the outside,” he muses. “Because GOT was the biggest show on earth, you can easily imagine that it would be overwhelming to be a part of, but that was never the case. Obviously, the last season took so long to shoot that it was a big chunk of the year—nine months in all—but over that time it felt like just another job in a line of jobs I had that year.” He will allow that not seeing the cast and crew like usual in September felt weird. “This past fall was different because I wasn’t going to Belfast, and I didn’t get to hang out with this amazing group of people. When you have a great experience with someone and you miss seeing them every day, it’s difficult to get used to. But hopefully we’ll meet again down the line on some other project,” he says pragmatically. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 17

One that, preferably, has nothing to do with George R.R. Martin’s epic fantasy novels. Not because he didn’t love it, but because he did. “I don’t think you can try to recreate or should want to recreate something that’s been so successful, because that’s just setting yourself up for disappointment; things are never going to be the same. Life moves on, things change, and you just have to accept that. It was such a great experience, but life goes on, and then something else happens that’s equally great.” At this moment in time, that something is taking on Shakespeare. When former Thrones director Matt Shakman—who now serves as the artistic director of Los Angeles’ Geffen Playhouse—offered him the opportunity to play Macbeth, he couldn’t resist … despite the fact that he’d be playing yet another king slayer. And so, he didn’t. CosterWaldau will be making his L.A. stage debut on June 16, with shows running through July 19. “I said yes without thinking too much. It’s a great play for me, very violent, very tight. He’s not a bad playwright, this guy Shakespeare,” he jokes. All kidding aside, it’s a dream role for Coster-Waldau, not just because of the material, but because he’s come full circle: His acting career actually began with Shakespeare, playing Laertes in a Danish production of Hamlet in 1992. “I realized, ‘Of course I love theater!’ and I haven’t been on stage for a long time [since a 2002 Danish production of Beckett]. Years go by, and you keep on saying, ‘I’ll do it next year’ and then something else comes along. But it’s an amazing part and he’s a very good director, so it was an easy choice. Basically, I couldn’t think of a reason not to do it. Although now that I’m sitting here trying to learn the damn words, I’m thinking of all the reasons why I shouldn’t have, but too late now! I can’t wait to do [this play], but it scares the shit out of me in a good way.” Don’t let him fool you: Coster-Waldau doesn’t sound worried in the least. Exhilarated, happy, giddy even, but not nervous. “I spend a lot of time trying to understand what the hell he’s saying, and really understanding it. At this stage, I’m really hopeful that I’ll get there in the end,” he says with a cheeky laugh. We have no doubt that, in two months’ time, he’ll have flawlessly transformed into the ambitious Scottish general. For those unfamiliar with the Bard’s tragedy, a trio of witches prophesize that Macbeth is slated for greatness and destined to become king, but his dangerous desire for power becomes his undoing as he and his wife murder and lie to hold on to the throne at any cost. To play him, an actor must descend into madness, paranoia, self-loathing and tyrannical behavior (on stage, that is). This is not, as we all know, unfamiliar territory for Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.
@hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 19
“Macbeth and Lady Macbeth are ambitious; they will do anything to get up on top, and once they get there, there is nothing but panic and paranoia,” he says. “You can definitely see that in Thrones: Cersei playing the game, thinking everyone was out to get her—and she wasn’t wrong. A lot of the themes are the same—the political flights, the constant battling for power.” When we suggest this could also be a metaphor for Hollywood, he readily agrees—and he should know, especially now that he’s taking on Tinseltown as both an actor and a producer. And so we’ve arrived at his most ambitious post-Thrones endeavor: the launch of his new company, Ill Kippers Productions, a joint venture with longtime friend and writer Joe Derrick as well as power publicist Jeffrey Chassen, which was announced this past November. “[Joe and I have been] writing together for years, and now it seemed like the perfect time to launch. Because I have been on that show for so long, it’s afforded me a platform where I can—at least for a year or two—get some meetings that I probably couldn’t have before.” The Ill Kippers crew won’t be pulling a Reese Witherspoon and just adapting books that they like: their storytelling will span a variety of mediums. To start, they have a character-driven film in the works, as well as podcasts—which Coster-Waldau says he listens to religiously—a documentary and a crime series based on a true story, and an inside look at Comic-Con, which he was first exposed to through Thrones. “I came in with a lot of prejudice about who goes to these things, dressing up like Star Trek—what is that? Then, I found out it’s nothing like what I expected [and thought it] could be an amazing backdrop to tell a story about identity and the world we live in right now.” No, he will not star in each and every story he produces—although, as the boss, that’s a nice perk (and no telling whether or not he’ll play himself in the Comic-Con story). “It’s not just about finding vehicles that I can star in. I mean, we’re also looking for something great for me, but it’s really about telling stories that resonate with us,” he explains. “The reason I’m an actor is because I find human behavior fundamentally interesting. I want to understand what we do, why we do it, and why so often there is a gap between what we say and what we do.” At least fans can breathe sighs of relief that his handsome face will not remain only behind the camera. “I’m still acting, all the time. I still work a lot; that’s not going to stop,” he promises. “My wife was joking, ‘I thought you were going to slow down!’ but it’s kind of become the opposite. But it’s my passion and it’s fun so there’s no conflict there. It’s exciting to build something new with people that you really like. There’s just a very basic joy in that.” The joy he’s finding in his new city could also be described as basic, though the home itself cannot be. When Ill Kippers became a reality, he packed up his family—his actor/singer wife, Nukâka Coster-Waldau, a former Miss Greenland, and two teenage daughters, Safina and Fillippa— 20 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com
and headed to the Hollywood Hills to live in a minimalistic, threebedroom Scandinavian-inspired abode, dotted with neutral colors and stark geometric shapes. The family still splits their time between their permanent residence in Copenhagen, where he, his wife and eldest daughter also work, but for now, the City of Angels is where they hang their hats. “I can’t plan on HBO putting me up in a hotel anymore, so we got a place here now, which is absolutely wonderful,” he says, noting that it was the right time to head West. “I’ve always liked coming here and always wanted to spend more time here, and obviously now I will be spending more time doing the play. It also makes sense to spend more time here when you’re starting a production company.” His daughters are big fans of their new city. In fact… “Both of my kids have acquired the acting bug, so let’s see how the chips fall. The only thing my wife and I have said to them is, ‘Whatever you pursue, just do it with joy and passion.’ Obviously, you try to explain—and I think they understand—that, like in most jobs, it can be very tough to get a break. Thank God the industry is changing for women, so hopefully they won’t have to deal with the issues that some of the generations before them have dealt with.” That he’s a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Development Program makes female equality even more top of mind for Coster-Waldau. “I have two daughters myself, and I want them to grow up with the same possibilities that men have. The fact that we live in a world where there is such a huge difference between whether you’re born a man or a woman is insane.” Coster-Waldau was set to travel to Jordan for the U.N.’s Global Goals World Cup, the first women’s activist soccer tournament, this April, but the event was postponed in the wake of COVID-19. But the pandemic won’t sway him from continuing his charity work. “What I’ve found through doing the work with the U.N. is that it’s always a challenge to understand and appreciate the tragedies that are taking place around the world if you’re not living through them. You try to pass on the information as best you can, but you also know that you can’t expect anyone to feel the burden of the world—and you shouldn’t, because that’s not a way to live.” And although fake news circulating through Denmark claimed that he had died earlier this year (which pissed him off royally, by the way), he is all about l-i-v-i-n. “I’m trying to live my life in the moment,” he says. “That’s the ideal, to just be present. I’m very much halfway in my life.” As Coster-Waldau prepares to turn 50 this July (no, we can’t believe it either), there are many more adjustments ahead, some welcome, some not. “The biggest change in my life at the moment is my family structure. One of my daughters is a young adult and will be leaving the nest. Forget the end of Game of Thrones—that’s more overwhelming and life-altering than ending some television show, don’t you think?”

BUSINESS AS USUAL A one-on-one interview with actress and entrepreneur Kate Bosworth, who discusses how she met her husband, their new company SpiiderGriip™ and her upcoming acting projects. BY LAURA SCHREFFLER
22 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com
HAUTE LIVING: Let’s talk about your involvement with SpiiderGriip. How did you become involved? Why did you become involved? KATE BOSWORTH: We became involved purely because we found a real need for an appendage like this and couldn’t find one that was as useful in the marketplace. As filmmakers, Michael and I are constantly creating content from our phones and the Spiidergriip makes a huge difference in how we are able to do so. Not only does it work as a griip, but we utilize the appendage by twisting it into a stand, and I also shoot much better beauty tutorials by hanging the griip from a ring light. HL: Why is this the new must-have tech accessory? KB: There is nothing else like it on the market place. Most other phone appendages depend on the hand to hold onto the piece. In that sense, it makes the phone easy to drop. The Spiidergrip does the work for you. One will not lose grip of their phone—the griip holds onto YOU. A great example recently was when I was on the top of the Eiffel Tower taking selfies—not once was a worried about dropping my phone because of the Spiidergriip! HL: Both you and your partners believed in the product enough to become equity partners. Why? KB: We believe this is a product for everyone and our product is truly unique. Most people in the world have a phone and they are on their phones for hours in a day. They are creating content, watching content, working ... people are going to start needing and wanting a more comfortable and accessible way to hold their devices. Our griip is

in things she believes in. The Straw Dogs, Blue Crush and Movie 43 actress and her husband, director Michael Polish, founded Make Pictures Productions to, well, make pictures that they wanted to personally put their weight behind. They entirely funded their first, Nona. Now, they’ve joined forces with another brand that personally aligns with their sensibilities, SpiiderGriip™. Together, they are founding equity partners and part owners of the company, which produces a line of innovative new phone griips™; flexible, rubberized devices that simply and quickly adhere to the back of a phone or phone case. “As producers and filmmakers, it has always been important that we have the right tools to create quality content. We’ve been using SpiiderGriip for a while as a way to document our everyday lives,” Bosworth explains, “which is why it’s so fitting that we would become partners in this incredible venture, and even more so, design our custom XOXO line, inspired by our endless love for each other and our work. This is just the beginning of our journey with SpiiderGriip, capturing life’s moments no matter the circumstance: on set, on the go, or for special occasions with loved ones.” Here, we chatted with the 37-year-old fashionista about her newest business venture, why working with her husband is the opposite of difficult, what big plans the two have coming up for 2020 and what looks she’s really loving from the Paris shows.

“I love working in television. The longevity of the story allows for deeper and more impactful character development...” HL: Does this lead the way for further creative collaborations with your husband? KB: We are constantly collaborating, whether in film, TV, or fashion. This has been a fun and different way to do so. We are creatives in every capacity and love working together. HL: You met through work—is it hard to sustain a working relationship and personal relationship? What are your hacks? KB: Our work relationship and personal relationship are truly intertwined. Creating is part of the love that fuels our relationship. There is nothing like the high of working with one another and feeling like we accomplished something together in a collaborative way. It is always exciting and new in that sense, while also acquiring a depth that being together for nearly 10 years will bring.

also the best and most comfortable appendage for people with arthritis or damage to their hands. You just slip your fingers into the Spiidergriip and it does the work for you, rather than having to awkwardly hold onto an appendage. HL: You’re a fashionable woman. How does this accessory play into your aesthetic sensibilities? KB: Michael and I became involved with the design process from packaging (clean white with the device “floating” in the packaging) to the actual griip. We created the red retrographic Atari “8- bit” XOXO for Valentine’s Day. We all loved this design so much, we are carrying the XOXO through to spring with new neon colors, which we are very excited about. It’s a throwback to being an ‘80s kid, in a cool way. Nostalgia meets modern day. HL: How does this help each of you with your careers, as you’re both involved in the film industry in different ways. KB: We are constantly creating content. Recently we made an in depth video for IGTV, only using the Spiidergriip (how I get ready for the “Vanity Fair” Oscar Party). In our opinion, the Spiidergriip is the most efficient phone appendage to film in both the selfie vantage point and outward. Using the griip also smooths the movement of the capture while in motion, which is important for improved quality of filming content.
HL: What do you have in the works in 2020 in terms of your film career? KB: We are very excited about a movie Michael directed and I star in (with Mel Gibson and Emile Hirsch) called Force of Nature. It’s an action packed super entertaining movie about a heist in a hurricane. We are also developing TATE, the Sharon Tate biopic, which is a real passion project for us— one which only celebrates Sharon’s life rather than focuses on the tragedy that befell her. HL: Are you seeking any TV-related projects? If so, what? If not, what would be the right project? KB: I love working in television. The longevity of the story allows for deeper and more impactful character development, which as an actor, of course I love. I started and produced a Netflix show called “THE I-LAND” last year and I have a few in development as well. HL: You recently attended the Paris shows. What looks are you shipping? What impressed you the most and do you need to wear immediately? KB: I am really loving more oversized suiting (which I wore to the Chloé show). I also really adored Joseph Altuzarra’s collection and thought Proenza Schouler continues to set the bar for sophisticated luxury—but cool—American design. And of course, Daniel Lee at Bottega [Veneta] is creating the most exciting and design-forward, compelling creations currently. Please someone get me one of his insane oversized bags… I want it all! *This interview took place prior to the COVID-19 outbreak.

CAPPING IT ALL OFF
Luxury House Louis Vuitton is the mastermind behind one of the most iconic handbag shapes of all time, born in July 2013 and quickly becoming a signature style: the Capucines. For this upcoming summer season, the House has reimagined the classic bag with additions like vibrant colors—Dragon Fruit and Chartreuse—monochrome animation with tone-on-tone hardwares, an ayers version with pastel coloring, and even an iteration with a statement plexiglass top handle, perfect for warm weather wear. As we look forward to a summer with brighter days ahead, we know the “it” bag we’ll want by our side.

HOME BASE
As millions of people have shifted to working from home in just the past couple of months due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis, having a comfortable and functional home office is arguably more important than ever. Get inspired to design your home office like the experts do it.

1. JOE HUMAN, DESIGNS BY HUMAN: I wanted to frame the view of the city and incorporate several masculine materials, one of which is a leather wall with hand-stitched details. The desk itself is a granite that I specifically sourced out to be “soft” to the touch but also durable when it comes to ink and pencil writing; 2. CHRIS GODDARD, GODDARD DESIGN GROUP: I chose a rich, deep color palette paired with custom lime-washed and coursed oak paneling to create a cozy English vibe. The room is adorned with a trove of antiques, most notably the partner’s desk, huntsman-styled inkwell, double-horned candelabra, brass bar cart, and vintage decanters and trophies; 3. CARI GIANNOULIAS, CARI GIANNOULIAS DESIGN: This home office was created for an advertising executive to compose some very memorable campaigns while pursuing his other passion for music. We thoughtfully gave this room a monochromatic canvas to house his collection of pedigreed and unattributed vintage guitars; 4. MCKINLAY ROSE INTERIORS: Custom built-in shelves and cabinets include a maple wall unit designed by McKinlay Rose Interiors and built by a local woodworker. The unique hand-painted glass tile backsplash adds depth and character to the back wall. Upholstered furnishings are draped with high-end textile tone on tone fabrics. 48 HAUTE LIVING hauteresidence.com

5. ALICE MCCAFFREY, ANGUS|MCCAFFREY INTERIOR DESIGN: Enter into this sophisticated man’s study and one can’t help but be struck immediately by the strength of Ellsworth Kelly’s Dark Green Panel. The print takes center stage amidst custom built-in cabinetry punctuated by linear polished nickel hardware and accents. The man’s study balances dark handsome walls with glints of polished nickel and chrome; 6. GISELLE LOOR-SUGERMAN, B+G DESIGN:This particular space was designed for a client with the intention of providing a home office feel along with all of the perks that come with an entertainment area. We incorporated a segmented home office that has open access to billiards, state of the art media system, and beyond; 7. JACK OVADIA, OVADIA DESIGN GROUP: The lush sophisticated wood walls play as a backdrop to the room with built-in bookcases. The furniture was selected and orchestrated to be a sitting area, for intimate meetings, or just to hang out and relax; 8. GABRIELLE AKER, OH BEAUTY INTERIORS; In this home office, located in Downtown LA, we wanted to create a space that sparked creativity, brought nature in, and honored the industrial architecture of the warehouse in which it resides. @hauteresidence HAUTE LIVING 49

branded KITCHEN
G&G BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS ANNOUNCED THE ADDITION
of luxury kitchen amenities available in Aston Martin Residences, the currently under-construction, 66-story curvilinear glass and steel residential building in the heart of downtown Miami. Two of the finest manufacturers of kitchen appliances and cabinetry were selected to accompany the residences. The latest Gaggenau appliances and Bulthaup cabinets will be part of each unit’s kitchen, allowing residents to enjoy the cooking process with family and friends in style, while admiring panoramic views of Biscayne Bay, the Miami River, and South Florida’s signature skyline. “The Aston Martin Residences Kitchen further harnesses the expression of Aston Martin’s design DNA and architectural excellence,” said German Coto, CEO of G&G Business Developments. “Gastronomy will play an important part of the family living experience at Aston Martin Residences, whereby the kitchen often forms the soul of the home for loved ones and friends who come together socially and culturally to share their passion for food. A shrouding of radiance, purity and warmth ensures the kitchen environment is both intimate 50 HAUTE LIVING hauteresidence.com
and inviting for both casual cooks and the most seasoned gourmand, who can enjoy today’s top-of-the-line appliances and amenities with relaxing confidence. The Aston Martin Residences Kitchen pays homage to the Art of Living and our commitment to its indelible imprint of impeccable design.” The white cabinets will reflect the natural light pouring through the floor to ceiling windows, aided by the White Thassos marble floors imported from Greece. The granite island countertop is enclosed in white wood and contrasts perfectly against the cabinets and floor. The large stovetop cooking area includes a state-of-the-art Burner Induction Cooktop and vent. And the chrome oven and spacious wine cooler fridge appliances match with the metal tap faucet and large sink builtin to the stone island. The design of the Aston Martin Residences Kitchen brings together a balance between the tropical South Florida outdoor climate and the warm indoor kitchen space. Upon completion, scheduled for 2022, Aston Martin Residences will be a standing manifestation of the Art of Living philosophy, driving the brand from the roads of Great Britain to Biscayne Boulevard.

ONE THOUSAND MUSEUM BY ZAHA HADID ARCHITECTS IS WELCOMING NONE OTHER
than superstar athlete, entrepreneur and global icon David Beckham as its latest homeowner. Beckham Brand Limited, the partnership and licensing company owned by the soccer star and co-owner of Inter Miami CF—the newest Major League Soccer (MLS) franchise—recently purchased a full-floor penthouse residence in the 62-story residential tower. A spokesperson for Beckham said, “With the launch of Inter Miami CF, David and his team are spending significant amounts of time in Miami. One Thousand Museum is a very special building and we are excited to join the community there.” The exoskeleton-shaped building by the London-based firm that adorns the Miami skyline like no other, officially opened in August of last year as one of the most anticipated developments in the world. It has top amenities that Beckham will surely enjoy, including an indoor-outdoor wellness center with state-of-the-art equipment by TechnoGym, yoga facilities, a spa with relaxation pods, and private rooms for spa services. The Aquatic Center on the 61st floor also features an indoor, infinity-edge lap pool. One Thousand Museum’s Sky Lounge has ample space for private events and fine dining by the building’s culinary team. The building has a dedicated Curator of Hospitality to attend after residents’ needs both on and offsite. The building’s private rooftop helipad marks One Thousand Museum’s status as the only residential building in Miami with this incredibly luxurious (and convenient) feature. It also partnered with Forbes Travel Guide to achieve lifestyle experiences for homeowners on par with the world’s finest hotels—the first in the world to do so. Daniel De La Vega’s ONE Sotheby’s International Realty Development Division is One Thousand Museum’s exclusive listing agency. ONE Sotheby’s agent Robert Hite brokered the deal as well. @hauteresidence HAUTE LIVING 51

MIAMI POWER BROKERS PANEL Panelists: Maria Eugenia Alvarez Vitale, Head of Sales, G&G Business Developments Recent project: Aston Martin Residences “We are at over 50% of Aston Martin Residences units sold. The downtown area is booming.” Phil Gutman, President of Brown Harris Miami “The upper part of the market has been doing well; the middle not so much.” Steven Solomon, Senior Director of Luxury Sales at Douglas Elliman Real Estate “In Boca Raton and Delray Beach, the market is very good. There are many buyers in the market. It’s an active season for the $1-3 million range.”
(Top) International Power Brokers Panel, left to right: Sue Nickason, Ben Bacal, Dolly Lenz, Jenny Lenz, Mary Ann Osborn, Richard Steinberg, Cody Vichinsky, Olivia Hsu Decker, Jay Parker, Michael Goldstein (Bottom) Miami Power Brokers Panel, left to right: Phil Gutman, Lourdes Alatriste, Crista Ryan, Christian Martinez, Sebastian Tettamanti, Maria Eugenia Alvarez Vitale, Steve Solomon INTERNATIONAL POWER BROKERS PANEL Panelists: Dolly Lenz and Jenny Lenz, Dolly Lenz Real Estate CEO/Founder and Managing Editor of Dolly Lenz Real Estate. “Know what’s going on in politics and in business, where the pitfalls are, so you can share that with them. I think that’s key.” Cody Vichinsky, Founding Partner at Bespoke Real Estate “We look at the market very focused in the high luxury properties. We have no independent agents, so our model is entirely different from a conventional brokerage business. It’s more dynamic.” Oliva Hsu Decker, Co-owner of Golden Gate Sotheby’s International Realty “Our business is a a people business.” Jay Parker, CEO of Douglas Elliman Florida Brokerage “You look at luxury (real estate) in other cities compared to Miami and you find that our price points (in Miami) are pretty attractive.” Michael Goldstein, President of The Trump Group “75% of our business is coming from New York.”
Ben Bacal, Creator of Rila app “Since 2017-2018, properties in Hillcrest have gone down in price to where they need to be. We see an uptick in international buyers. I want to teach my agents to be powerhouses in each of their market and become power agents in those areas.” Richard Steinberg, Douglas Elliman Real Estate Head of Richard Steinberg Team at Douglas Elliman Real Estate “Every seller thinks they charge too little. Every buyer thinks they pay too much. But they buy it because they want it. My advice to brokers is to go for the big stuff because it’s much harder to sell the small stuff.”
Crista Ryan, President of Tina Fanjul Associates On what drives people to South Florida, “The quality of life. I grew up walking New York’s streets, hearing taxis screech on the road. Here, it’s more laid back, but we have a lot of companies’ headquarters in the area.” Christian Martinez, Regional Vice President of Florida at Compass “Higher listings take longer, but we see them moving. It also depends on the market. Certainly in Miami, Coral Gables and Coconut Grove have an active market. Overall, New York money continues to flow into Broward and Palm Beach counties.” Sebastian Tettamanti, Senior Vice President of Dezer Development “The rental market is very active. The buyer is taking a bit longer. Now that there is so much product, agents take clients to more locations. However, the product is moving and we are making sales.” Lourdes Alatriste, Partner and Private Office Advisor of Engel & Völkers Miami “At that level of luxury properties, you should know who they are,” [on researching potential buyers for proof of funds.]
The day also featured a presentation by Eric Fessler, the Jumbo Loan King, an expert entrepreneur with over 30 years of mortgage banking experience who has closed over $10 billion in transactions. Fox Business Network Anchor Cheryl Casone traveled from New York with Mary Ann Osborn, Leading Broker at Century City her “FBN:AM” film crew to capture the annual Summit in what was its greatest edition yet. “The older people come in through signage on the After the last panel ended, Haute Living Coproperty and require you to hand-hold them through founder Seth Semilof closed the day by thanking the process,” [about the extra personal touch that all panelists, Vidal, everyone in attendance and comes when selling luxury real estate.] Residences by Armani/Casa for what was the real estate event of the season. Sue Nickason, VP Business Development, Provenance Properties International “Our sweet spot is beach, beach, beach. We have a brokerage that did the most sales in the Cayman Islands last year, just shy of $100 million.”

Haute Time sits down with Hublot Global CEO Ricardo Guadalupe who shares his insight on what makes the brand such a success, even in a challenging market. BY MARTIN GREEN
HT: And as CEO of Hublot, what do you consider the most challenging part of your job? RG: To build a really integrated manufacture is the most challenging part at Hublot. It is not easy to create your own movement, like the Unico movement, or to have your own materials, like the colored ceramics and the sapphire, and create them all up to a certain standard. The quality is, of course, essential. If we produce a movement that stops or has issues in precision, that can be a big issue. These are really the challenges that you face with having a manufacture. We’re growing and growing 64 HAUTE LIVING hautetime.com
in verticalization. Today we’re at 30% watches with our own movement, tomorrow we’re going to be at 70%, and it’s a huge challenge to be able to reach that objective. HT: So, that’s also your goal? 70% own movements? RG: Yes, but, of course, it cannot be from one day to another. So now we are planning to build a third building to be able to do so; not to increase our quantity of watches, but also quantities of our integrated in-house movements. On the material side, like with the ceramics, and the sapphire, you deal with sophisticated processes that require a lot of technology as well. HT: You can work on innovation, but you can never really predict when it’s going to be available, and when it’s good enough to produce it in larger quantities. How do you manage that innovation? RG: We invest a lot in research and development. We have like a hundred projects currently going on in research and development. Some are on materials, some others are on the movements, but we also have projects focusing on design. As we always have new projects, at a certain point, projects are ready every year more or less so we can plan to introduce them as novelties. I sometimes also have to decide unfortunately to stop certain projects because it becomes clear that they are not feasible. Sometimes you cannot industrialize the concept, or you cannot do it at the right cost or get the right quality. It’s a continuing process of innovation in those different segments that I just mentioned. We work a lot with colored ceramics. We have come up with a red ceramic, which took us five years to develop. So there are always a lot of projects going on, and although some can be postponed, innovation is very key to the success of the brand.

HAUTE TIME: Hublot is a brand that really excels in its partnerships. What are the keys to success in that? RICARDO GUADALUPE: It’s really about choosing a partnership that has not been explored by other brands. The idea is to always be the first to be unique or different in our partnerships. Football, or soccer, is a good example as we have been the first luxury watch brand to enter this sport in 2008, and this has allowed us to have incredible brand awareness. This is thanks to the World Cup, but also the Euro Cup and the Champion League. With Ferrari, we have tried to do [this partnership] differently, because other brands have done partnerships with Ferrari before, but we decided to do it in a different way. Now we’ve been with Ferrari eight years, and we have proven that you can have a successful partnership with a watch brand and Ferrari. I think we have been one of the first, if not the first, to explore art. Not only sculpture art with Richard Orlinski, but also tattoo art. We are trying to go into golf, though in this sport, we are not the first brand to do it, but we have tried to do it in a different way. The fact is that we’re always applying this philosophy to have a different approach. A disruptive approach has allowed us to be different in our partnerships.

HT: With some innovations, Hublot is so good that other brands just give up on them, like the sapphire cases. Other brands tried it, but once Hublot released its colors, we don’t see many other brands with sapphire watches anymore... RG: Yeah, it’s really difficult. It’s a big investment, so you have to be a brand with a certain financial power because we are talking about millions of investments. If you are a brand that sells $20 million of watches a year, to invest two-to-three million is impossible. We know that from when we started with Hublot because we were doing $25 million in 2004. To develop a movement even at that time, we couldn’t do it, because it was too much of an investment. So, it’s step-by-step; that’s why building the manufacture is so important. With sapphire, we decided to really take the risk, invest the necessary amounts in improving the manufacturing process and be able to produce not one watch or 10 watches, or 20 watches, but hundreds of watches with sapphire cases. HT: You’re only the third CEO of Hublot in the past 40 years, correct? RG: That’s a good question. In the 24 years before Mr. (Jean-Claude) Biver, I think it was only Carlo Crocco, the founder of the brand. I think so, yeah. That’s it, I had never thought about it like this, so that’s good. HT: You have been a key player with Hublot for so many years now, what is your favorite part in Hublot history? RG: The creation of the Big Bang. You know, that was really an incredible challenge and an incredible achievement. Also, the brand was more or less sleeping when Jean-Claude Biver and I got on board to bring it to new heights, and to sell it to LVMH in 2008 only four years later; that was an incredible achievement. I would say, as an experience, a professional experience, it was also very interesting and motivating.

Haute Time sits down with CEO of Zenith Julien Tornare, who discusses those special watch movements, how the brand finds harmony between classic and modern creations, and whether or not Zenith has reached its zenith. BY MARTIN GREEN
HT: Zenith has an incredible history, represented by some amazing revival pieces in the collection, but also modern creations such as the Defy 21. How do you balance these dual aspects in your overall lineup? JT: For me, that is very easy. In my 23 years in the watch industry, I have always been surprised by the fact that it’s been segmented into two categories. There were watch brands with a long history, very scared of doing something else than [what] they have been doing. They say you have to respect the past. Then you have other brands, with either a very short history or no history at all; they started from scratch, and they can do everything, all the craziness, and all the extreme creativity. For me, one doesn’t go against the other. We have a long history, a great heritage of 155 years. We are very authentic. We are one of the last few brands where you don’t need to wonder if it has a Zenith movement inside. We are so lucky to have this heritage and history, and we are a real manufacture. But, it is not because you have that heritage and are a manufacture that you need to be boring and … repeat the past. I want to do new things, to test and try new things, as the people did in the past. A year and a half ago, I was preparing the anniversary of El Primero, and I had an idea. It was going to be 50 years, which is a long time, but not that long. I managed to find eight people who worked on the El Primero, and I took them for lunch. The youngest one was born in 1945, and the oldest in 1939. It was a great moment for me. First of all, they told me many inside stories that nobody knew. Also,

HAUTE TIME: What needs to be done to utilize the full potential of Zenith? JULIEN TORNARE: There has been a lot of things done in the last few years, but I would say, first, it was to rationalize different things: distribution, number of SKUs, marketing activities, and partnerships. So, [there were] many topics that we needed to turn around to be where we are now. When I arrived, the Elite collection didn’t have the right design, and with the Chronomaster, there were too many different models. It took me a while to redesign the Classic. It is now refined and elegant, and that is what you go for with Classic watches. With Chronomaster, you will see more at Baselworld. We also go back to something very close to the original Chronomaster. Together with Elite, these are not the lines where we can go crazy. We have to stick to what we do well and continue to do it properly, with a perfect design. Fortunately, I launched Defy two years ago, which has been such a success and such a growth engine. This is the right line to do limited editions, bigger sizes, colors, different things. I can have fun in Defy, for sure. We have also been working on other aspects. When I came on board two and a half years ago, there was no digital knowledge or specialized people in the company, and very little presence on social media. We immediately changed this and started from scratch in so many fields that were abandoned. So, you can only do better as you have so many leverages.

they told me how much innovation and creativity were used. The word ‘start-up’ didn’t exist back then, but it was a ‘Zenith start-up’ spirit that they had in the ‘60s when they made the El Primero, which was totally new. Nobody believed it would work, and everybody told them not to do it. They went for it, and they reached their star because of creativity. I have two choices, I will repeat what has been done, or I will try to make history and create new things. I actually think that it is our mission to do so. Talking to these gentlemen, now in their 80s, you would think that they would be a bit conservative, but they pushed me and told me to bring new things. HT: In the past, you have delivered movements to other brands, even outside the LVMH group. Is that something you aspire to do again? JT: No, because we are not a movement manufacture. We could have taken this direction, but we are a brand. This is what we are doing now: we are building and reinforcing the Zenith brand. It is clear that we have strong expertise in manufacturing movements, so we benefit from it. First of all, [we benefit] ourselves, and then for some sister-brands from the group; that’s not a secret, but that’s it. I have had quite a few requests from external brands to buy El Primero and Elite movements, but we said no to that. HT: What is the legacy that you want to leave behind as CEO of Zenith? JT: When I came on board, the brand was in a tough situation. I needed to bring the brand back on track. When I say back on track, it is not like it is done many times in the past. A new CEO is coming; for one year, he cleans up and says that everything that was done before was wrong. Then, he starts to do his own thing, and starts to push the markets, with a focus on selling, selling, selling, and a little sell-out sometimes, and then he gives the key to the next one, and that person has a bad situation. My job is to bring the brand back where it should be, meaning that we should double, triple our performance of today. We have the potential for that, but in a clean way. What I like people to remember is that I brought back the original DNA of the brand. We have been super dynamic and super creative since the first day. When I came on board, Mr. Jean-Claude Biver himself told me that Zenith is a sleeping beauty and that my job is to wake up the beauty. HT: Do you consider Zenith to have reached its own zenith? JT: That’s an excellent question, but no, we are not there yet. The zenith will always be something that we are going for. I would say that if you stop climbing when you get close to the summit, you have to continue climbing. Our zenith will always be the sky, and we will have to go for it continually. It is a never-ending story, as we have so much to do with the brand. When I joined it, I believed that the potential was huge. The sky is the limit, but where in the sky, I don’t know yet.

THE +DESIGNING PERFECT STAY A haute guide to the best design hotels in the world. BY LAURA SCHREFFLER
SOMETIMES, A HOTEL IS JUST A HOTEL, A PLACE TO REST YOUR HEAD AND LEAVE.
But there are also times that travelers want something more from their stay, something special. We think these newly opened, design-focused hotels have that ‘It’ factor. From a floating hotel in Swedish Lapland to the late Zaha Hadid’s $1.1 billion behemoth in Macau, here are nine properties whose designs really blow our minds. * This piece was written and produced prior to the COVID-19 crisis.
ANANTARA TOZEUR RESORT FOR THOSE SEEKING A SLEEK, CHIC EXPERIENCE IN
the Sahara Desert, head to Anantara Tozeur Resort Southwest of Tunisia for a luxury gateway to ancient cultural and desert wonders. With its Moorish architecture, Berber patterns and North African furnishings—including the inlaid timber screens and traditional fret-cut lighting and artwork found in all 93 rooms and five dining outlets, not to mention a veranda that looks out over the resort’s meandering swimming pools with the jaw-dropping backdrop of the Chott el Djerid salt flats—its aesthetic fully embodies its arid location. Embrace the resort’s aesthetic even further with a high-end moveable feast courtesy of Dining by Design, Anantara’s signature private dining concept. Enjoy a romantic candlelight dinner on the terrace of a private residence in Tozeur town or even a secluded barbecue in a Berber tent amidst the whispering sands of the Sahara. The resort also puts travelers in touch with local culture and history by offering tailored excursions to Tozeur’s Medina. Trek through the expansive desert scenery with a professional driver on a guided quad bike adventure to Chott el Djerid, the largest salt lake in the Sahara Desert; go camel trekking, stopping for mint tea and dates; and even immerse yourself in a Star Wars adventure, given that Tozeur is home to numerous scenes from the original trilogy and prequels, with special programs available for guests to explore a galaxy far, far away. Essentially, they’re designing your personal fantasy. Mrah Lahwar 2200, Tozeur, Tunisia

Architect Patrick Collier also took inspiration from the iconic Medersa Ben Youssef, one of Marrakech’s most famous historic monuments. The main building of the property is geometrically laid out like an Andalusian royal residence, with design elements such as hand-carved woodwork, domes and archways, zellige mosaic wall tiles and grand panels of sculpted plasterwork fashioned with Arabic phrases like ‘El Afia El Bakia’ (Eternal Health). Walls with latticework grilles and double-arched windows highlight light-filled spaces, which serve to showcase the breathtaking views of ancient olive groves and the Atlas Mountains beyond; there are also gardens of plants, succulents, Mediterranean cypress trees and citrus orchards on site. The highlight of this 84-room hotel is hard to miss: Its central courtyard is home to a grand black basin, upon which a flame appears. At night, the firelight seems to dance, lending the hotel a mystical, magical quality.

is an architectural marvel. The $1.1 billion project, located at City of Dreams Macau, is the world’s first free-form, exoskeleton-bound, high-rise architectural composition, and incorporates a number of architectural and technological breakthroughs. It’s a behemoth of a project, using four times the amount of wrought iron used on the Eiffel Tower, enough aluminum cladding to make more than nine million soda cans and a 115-foot-high atrium lobby, which is tall enough for a double Ferris wheel. There are 770 guest rooms, suites and villas, all designed by Peter Remedios, one of the world’s top interior decorators; a gravity-defying pool located 40 stories above the city; 12 high-speed panoramic elevators; amazing art like “Good Intentions” by KAWS on display; fine dining from Alain Ducasse as well as Pierre Hermé, who was named the World’s Best Pastry Chef by the World’s 50 Best Restaurants and three-Michelin-star chef Alain Ducasse; and, at its spa, a number of world-firsts, including an in-house Spa Butler concept, a Snow Garden installation and a one-of-a-kind treatment in its platinum mask treatment courtesy of the world-renowned skincare brand Margy’s Monte Carlo. In-room, luxuries like Rivolta and Mühldorfer bed linens, Bernardaud chinaware, Hermès and Acqua di Parma toiletries and Dyson hair dryers are found throughout. Morpheus, City of Dreams

SB Architects went for when creating this five-star property on the sun-soaked Greek island of Cyprus. Giving guests endless slices of sea and sky with unobstructed views was the intention here, at what is the first hotel to be constructed, ground-up, on the Limassol seafront in almost two decades. The style is distinctly Mediterranean; public spaces such as the lobby were modeled after a residentially scaled “Iliakos,” or enclosed veranda common to traditional Cypriot architecture. And while the design team—which also includes The Rockwell Group—managed to preserve and celebrate the history that existed when the hotel site was the ancient village of Amathus (the speculated birthplace of Aphrodite) including protecting age-old olive trees that dot the property, it is also distinctly modern, offering every amenity a guest could request, and then some. In addition to a rooftop bar, which offers totally unobstructed views of the sea, the property features 207 exquisitely designed guest rooms, many of which have personal cascading plunge pools, and Michelin-star featured restaurants from Nobu Matsuhisa and Giorgio Locatelli. 5 Amathus Avenue, Agios Tychon 4533, Cyprus

A metal chain/mesh curtain in the hotel’s atrium adds an iconic architectural element, inspired by the Sankt Bartholomäus Kirche (St. Bartholomew’s Church) in Cologne, Germany. Hanging at its center is a spectacular piece of architectural artwork, featuring a moonlight—“The Moon” by Sabine Marcelis—that is 14 feet in diameter, composed of an internal structure with LED lighting panels. The moonlight has multiple dimming settings ranging from bright warm to dim cool and is programmed to time of day and day of year by an astronomical timeclock as part of the Lutron dimming system. Meanwhile, the Houston-based Rottet Studio designed the interiors with minimalism in mind, using natural materials like linen drapes, white marble, dark bronze and natural oak throughout. This haute hotel also features a contemporary art collection inspired by the Washington Color School movement, curated by consulting firm Tatar Art Projects, and Estuary, a restaurant courtesy of James Beard Award winners Bryan and Michael Voltaggio. 950 New York Ave NW, Washington, DC 20001

ARCHITECTS BERTIL HARSTRÖM AND JOHAN KAUPPI ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ONE OF THE COOLEST HOTELS (LITERALLY AND FIGURATIVELY) TO
open this year. Arctic Bath, a design-focused hotel in Swedish Lapland, appears to float. And if it appears that way, it’s because it actually does. Though the property will be frozen on the Lule river in winter, come summertime, it will float downstream from the bridges of Bodträskfors. Though there are only 12 rooms at this intimate property, each has been designed by Bertil Harström, Johan Kauppi or AnnKathrin Lundqvist to enhance and celebrate its environment. The surrounding landscape merges with said cabins, which use sustainable materials such as wood, stone and leather; the larger six boast glass walls, affording crystal-clear views of the Northern Lights, should they come out to play. Predominantly Swedish design brands are featured throughout: ateljé Lyktan has produced bespoke lighting called Kvast for the hotel; lounge furniture has been supplied by Karl Andersson och Söner, Stolab and Swedese; and beds are by Carpe Diem. And at the hotel’s circular heart—which appears to be inspired by Winterfell or Middle Earth—is a giant ice bath, ringed with three saunas, a spa treatment room and hot baths, inspired by the timber-floating era when felled trees were transported downriver for processing. Literally, nowhere else on earth will you find a hotel hub that’s meant to embody a log jam.

Hotel, which takes its design cues from Christian Bale’s The Prestige, a film which, fittingly, revolves around a Victorian-era magician. KL Wong Architect Sdn Bhd considered the colonial Victorian heritage of the Georgetown property, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and used visual trickery as well as notions of magic and illusions with the end goal of creating a totally unique hotel. Needless to say, it was a success: Some of the spaces appear to levitate, while others seem to disappear; a custom reception desk seems to magically balance on balls, while hidden doors in guest rooms open to reveal toilets and pantries. In said rooms, a key feature is a custom shower PHOTO COURTESY OF THE PRESTIGE HOTEL PENANG
and wardrobe enclosure crafted of champagne bronze-tinted metal and glass; a hero piece that takes aesthetic cues from the elaborate magic props used in performances such as Houdini’s escape box. Another custom piece is the vanity mirror frame. Abstracted from Victorian mirrors (usually heavy and elaborate) and modernized with its angular form, polished brass and integrated light, this feature plays on optical illusions and perceptions, appearing as two mirrors but floating as a frame on top of a horizontal mirror wall. The hotel, which features 162 guest rooms, an all-day dining restaurant, a rooftop infinity pool, events pavilion (named after lead characters in The Prestige film, no less) and terrace, and a vibrant Victorian dining and retail arcade, is a visual experience that can’t be missed. 8, Gat Lebuh Gereja, George Town, 10300 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysias

NFL HALL OF FAMER RAY LEWIS HOSTED AN OVER-THE-TOP,
“Century Celebration,” at Miami’s Seminole Hard Rock Guitar Hotel in Hollywood. Here, Lewis and fellow football legends were invited to come out in honor of the occasion, celebrating 100 years of the NFL. The Hall of Famers and other notables kicked off the evening by walking the “Gold Carpet,” posing for photos in front of the hotel’s focal point—the Oculus—which was decorated with decanters of LOUIS XIII—a brand that represents 100 years in a bottle. After, VIPs made their way to the hotel’s popular DAER nightclub, which hosted the special “100 Package,” where ticket-holders were treated to a special presentation presented by LOUIS XIII honoring Ray Lewis and the legends. Jamie Foxx kicked off the excitement for the after party as he took the stage and got the crowd going with a performance, hyping them up for the live auction. A portion of all proceeds from the event benefited Lewis’ personal foundation, Ray of Hope Foundation, which provides support for those in need or going through hard times by sending them personalized videos (“rays of hope”) from luminaries with encouraging messages.

The crowd was entertained with an impressive lineup of dancers, performers and even a live show from magician Julius Dein. On the second night at Gold Rush Cabaret, Roberts went for a real blowout bash in true Miami form. Midway through the night, guests were surprised with 144 pizzas from the Miami location of Brooklyn-based pizza restaurant Lucali, as well as cheeseburgers from Vice Burgers. A live performance by Roberts’ son, Justin, brought the evening to life, as he performed some of his smash hit singles.
