Well what a great honour this is for me stepping into Jill’s shoes as editor now, as she begins her relaxation time by sunning herself in Grenada.

Though a very big role to fill I hope to bring new ideas and certainly plentiful enthusiasm to such a world-renowned publication. With previous experience of working in the luxury cruise sector I hope to combine some of my travel knowledge and own personal interests in the exciting topics we cover.

Whilst putting this issue together I discovered that owning your own island in Mauritius is now a possibility and would certainly be on my bucket list given half the chance. Or if working abroad ever became a reality I would perhaps consider Florida due to the recent changes in US tax laws.

I am also a keen boating fan and find the latest superyachts quite a feat of engineering not to mention the superb interior styling and hope to one day experience a visit or even dare I say a voyage on one of these incredible vessels.

Writing about the latest supercars was also great fun and with all that muscle power I was left feeling rather invigorated.

‘The Insider’s Guide to Acquiring Luxury Property in London’, by emailing jeremy@ mercuryhomesearch.com or calling +44 (0)800 3894280

he history of London’s royal parks makes interesting reading. Most of the land was acquired from the Church following the dissolution of the monasteries during the 1540s. It was initially reserved by the royals for their private hunting grounds but later opened for public use, starting with Hyde Park.

Jeremy McGivern of Mercury Homesearch advises that properties with park views have always sold at a premium. “Consequently, properties that overlook garden squares trade at a premium,” he says, “but the biggest premium is invariably for apartments that overlook one of London’s great parks: Hyde Park, Holland Park, Green Park. And, if you want houses, then there are houses (and apartments) within Regent’s Park itself.

“There simply aren’t many of these properties and London’s strict planning regulations mean that it is impossible to suddenly have a massive increase in supply (unlike the massive increase of properties on the river). Add to this the fact that the parks are situated in globally renowned locations like Mayfair, Knightsbridge and Kensington and you can see why the world’s most successful families and business people want to acquire these properties.”

Although it’s inevitable that they will still go down in price in weaker markets, park-side properties still tend to outperform the market in both weak and strong markets.

“Indeed, in strong bull markets they achieve jaw-dropping prices for the simple reason that there is more price elasticity at the top of the market,” » advises Mr McGivern.

Chester Terrace Having undergone refurbishment in recent years, Chester Terrace has expansive views over Regent's Park. This family home provides lift access to all floors. The grand reception hall opens into a beautifully designed dining room and an interconnecting fully fitted kitchen and breakfast room. The elegant double reception occupies the first floor and features high ceilings.

Occupying the entire second floor is the master bedroom suite, while the remaining three bedrooms (one en suite) are on the third floor along with a family bathroom. The lower ground floor includes a family room, staff accommodation, a bathroom and internal garage. £14.5m / €16.74m / $18.58m Beauchamp Estates

The proximity to Richmond Park allows people the feeling of country-living whilst also having easy access to the city

Architectural elegance

Marc Schneiderman, director at Arlington Residential, reports that one of the first houses the company sold 25 years ago was in Regent’s Park on Chester Terrace for £1.24m.

“We are now selling the neighbouring house, identical in size, for £12.5m,” he says. “This elegant Grade I listed house is a beautiful example of the fine architectural design synonymous with Regent’s Park, set behind the grand columns at the favoured entrance end of the terrace.

“Chester Terrace is one of the area’s finest, designed by John Nash as part of his plan of 1812 to develop the Crown Estate land as a fashionable residential area, with the backing of the Prince Regent, later George IV. Flats in the Nash terraces such as Cumberland Terrace, York Terrace West and Cambridge Gate are highly prized and those commanding good views of Regent’s Park are likely to achieve a premium in the order of 15-20% more than the same property without such a lovely view.”

According to Richard Towler of Marsh & Parsons, Roehampton or Sheen ‘Parkside’ are the most in-demand locations in SW14 and SW15. He says, “The area is hugely popular with families and young professionals alike who are keen to take advantage of the local outdoor sports and enjoy the larger-sized houses the area has to offer. The proximity to Richmond Park allows people the feeling of country-living whilst also having easy access to the city. The market for this location is never short of demand, so people tend to take a longer-term view when buying these houses.”

North Gate, St John’s Wood

A magnificent apartment on the second floor of this prestigious block located directly opposite Regent's Park. The apartment which is in excellent condition has been designed to create four bedrooms, three bathrooms (two en suite), a drawing room, dining room, eat-in kitchen, utility and cloakroom.

ack in 1985 Tim and Kit Kemp opened their first property, the Dorset Square Hotel and in doing so introduced a new breed of luxury to the London hotel market. This marked the birth of Firmdale Hotels. It was sold in 2002 but the Kemps reacquired the hotel and reopened it in 2012, having embarked upon an extensive refurbishment. Stamping it with Kit’s signature style, the interiors feature bold colours and textures, bespoke and one-off pieces as well as original art collected from around the globe.

All bedrooms, bathrooms and public areas have been completely refurbished. Due to its location, there is a ‘cricket’ theme running throughout. From artwork and memorabilia to a stunning collection of bats and the tiny cricket balls used as closet handles in the bedrooms, there are fun and witty references everywhere.

There is a sumptuous guest drawing room with a fireplace and The Potting Shed restaurant and bar which is open all day. The menu is inspired by the best of British cooking and some Mediterranean classics, using seasonal and locally sourced produce. A carefully selected wine list complements the menu. Along one entire wall is an art installation by Martha Freud which has 198 small lights sat in ceramic cups that fade on and off, spelling out famous cricket sayings. The bar is dominated by two Peter Rocklin paintings that also draw inspiration from the hotel’s cricket history.

The Dorset Square Hotel is within easy reach of London’s theatreland and financial district and surrounded by fashionable shops, cafés, restaurants and world-class galleries.

Relaunch for London’s largest portfolio of premium offices London Executive Offices (LEO) has relaunched as The Argyll Club and unveiled a suite of new business memberships, which will provide busy professionals exclusive access to a host of its business clubs across London. A well-respected player in the London office market for over 20 years, The Argyll Club is embarking upon the next stage of its evolution and plans to double its size in just five years.

The ambitious growth plan will be achieved by extending its range of services, expanding both its owned and leased real estate, and partnering with some of London’s most prestigious landlords.

As part of the initiative, the business is investing an eight-figure sum to upgrade its existing portfolio. Beth Hampson, Commercial Director comments, “As a business we have evolved and we now offer everything from premium offices to elegant lounges and delightful meeting spaces, all delivered with concierge service. The quality of both the environment and service we provide is much more akin to a members’ club and we wanted our name to reflect that.” www.theargyllclub.com

Simon already owns a title company, Lender’s Title, a full-service branding studio, Simon Studios, a real estate firm, Fit Realty, and a home-building company, Custom Homes of Virginia. His new publication offers advice for everyone no matter what they are trying to accomplish or what stage they are at and includes many tips, insights and strategies. www.briansimon.com

Music of the nature Recognising Hungarian masters with a cultural musical arts centre

T Varosliget Zrt 84/A Dózsa György Str., Budapest 1068, Hungary t: +361 374 3131 t: +361 374 3130 e: office@ligetbudapest.hu www.ligetbudapest.hu

here is perhaps no other cultural area where Hungarian art has made a bigger impact than music.

Although people may know this as the land of Kodály, there are many Hungarian composers who have left their mark on the universal language of music: Béla Bartók and Franz Liszt are defining figures in European music history, while György Ligeti, György Kurtág and Péter Eötvös are giants of contemporary classical music.

The House of Hungarian Music – designed by Sou Fujimoto - will provide a comprehensive overview of the music masters from Hungarian and European music and bridge the cultural divide by paying tribute to some of the best known and most respected musicians. The new educational centre is being developed as part of the Liget Budapest Project,

currently Europe’s largest cultural urban development plan. This programme will transform Hungary’s largest park on a scale not seen since the millennial celebrations of 1896.

Taking an unconventional approach, The House of Hungarian Music will also serve as a performance,

training and education centre as well as exhibition venue. The interactive music hub is aimed to be a space for exploration of music. The design of this new public area and events venue in Városliget also embraces the surrounding parkland and introduces creative musical work.

Painting in Germany Today

group of museums including the Kunstmuseum Bonn, the Museum Wiesbaden and the Deichtorhallen Hamburg have collaborated in bringing together works by renowned German artists. Painting, not long ago regarded as a dying art form, has made such a rapid comeback that canvases and panels – mostly large and abstract – are barely dry before they are being thrown up at art fairs. But in Germany this was not the case. Here painting has always been seen as the foremost art form and as a result we have the likes of Gerhard Richter, Anselm Kiefer, Georg Baselitz, and Albert Oehlen. A comprehensive

Eva Gonzalès Awakening Girl | 1877-78 Oil on canvas Kunsthalle Bremen

Masterpieces of the Kunsthalle Bremen aintings from one of Germany’s most celebrated museums provide the latest reason to visit the Guggenheim in Bilbao – even though nearly all could be seen in Bremen. The rationale for this is complex and stems in part from a commitment to what the Kunsthalle calls its 'Social Dividend'. Anyway, the result is a chance to see the evolution of European art in the 19th and 20th centuries through the eyes of German and French painters. The roll call of names is astonishing:

Eugène Delacroix

Caspar David Friedrich, Modersohn-Becker, Dix, Kirchner, Beckmann, Nolde, Cézanne, Van

he key is to create a focal point. This is the area where your main seating area will go, and is generally a fireplace of sorts. It is traditional to place seating around a fireplace and this creates a warm and inviting area whatever the size of the room. A living room without a focal point, lacks any warmth and feels wrong.

Three awardwinning interior designers reveal the secrets behind some of their stunning lounge creations

The Fairways London project was a whole house design from the ground up, but the main reception room was the client’s most important room, as this was a Saudi Royal and the standard had to be super high luxury for her. The reception needed to have a very feminine style and elegance, so that it was comfortable and functional for her needs.

We used silk rugs inlaid into the marble flooring, and the most beautiful crystal wall lights and ceiling lights which were over 1.5 metres in diameter each end of the room. The house was to be bright and airy and, as it was »

such a large room, I formed two ends.

One had a slightly more classical look with curved sofas and chairs and a traditional fireplace, while the other end echoed the colour scheme but with a slightly more masculine feel, with clean lines and taller armchairs.

The theme had a slight art deco feel to it and all the furniture in the reception room was bespoke, even the large mirrors on the walls. I also softened the room with an array of silver, elegant flower vases filled with fresh flowers. We installed a grand piano for the Princess to sit in the window bay and to separate the two ends of the room. All the materials used were of the highest quality, from leathers, through to silk on the cushions and beautiful crystal on the tables.

The owner of the large country house project is a successful businessman who wanted his wife to have a huge contribution to the reception room. Her favourite colour is red and, when I was asked to use this as a main colour, I was a little worried. I also know that red isn’t one colour, there are many variations. Had I only used very small elements of red, the room would have appeared bland and almost fearful of the dominance of such a colour.

I therefore chose to ‘go brave’ and take the whole back wall as the main palette and feature. The flooring was an off-white marble with flecks of silver and beige, as was the architrave around the doors. There was a lot of glass in the room due to large

windows, so I felt it could easily take the strength of the red. I installed two huge bespoke crystal chandeliers into the ceiling, as the brief was elegant, modern, with a twist of traditional!

The rugs under the two seating areas were thick pile, which felt glorious underfoot, and I wanted to incorporate the same feel on the feature back wall, using velvet in a deep red. I mirrored this red in the cushions with piping and logos, and also along the sides of the sofas and chairs. The clients wanted to show off their crystal so I designed two large inset boxes, lit up to show this off in the feature wall. These were made up of mirror, glass and silver plate, and as they were over-sized, gave the room a real focal point.

always strive to make interiors work for the building as well as for my clients’ lives. This apartment is located next to a large public park, so to make the best of the views, I maximised the internal space, which is 14-metres wide. This was done by firstly zoning and then layering the three interlinking spaces with a bespoke silver-art-glass fireplace, made by a British artist using the Verre Eglomisé process.

This unique fireplace seamlessly zones the two seating areas. By day it is a subtle room divider and by night it warms up and illuminates the space adding richness to the apartment while at the same time permitting a clear view of the other internal spaces from wherever you are seated.

The unusually large open plan living area is zoned into three distinct

areas; sitting, eating and entertaining. I also designed the decorative chequerboard flooring which links all three spaces by blending stone with wood. The lounge area is the entertainment space and this greets you first as you enter from the foyer. Bespoke seating in subtle shades of teal grey and white anchor the space while a mirrored television reflects the view of the park straight back into this space.

The sitting area which follows on from the entertaining area is designed to be a balance of yin and yang, from its colour tones to its bespoke curved seating and luxurious pale grey rugs and white coffee table and table lamps. The eating area features a bespoke 12 seater dining table behind the seating areas and is complemented by a bespoke onyx drinks cabinet which also houses glassware. A bespoke giant interconnected ring-shaped LED chandelier illuminates this area, while a special temperature controlled wine tasting room is perfectly located in-between the dining and sitting areas showcasing the owner’s wine collection.

The overall interior creates a luxurious international style with subtle colours and materials which altogether suit this » modern building and the client’s city pied-à-terre home.

his room within a Hampshire country mansion started off life as a ballroom. It is now known as the Evening Lounge and was designed for the clients to use for evening entertaining and also for watching television as a family. Its proportions, whilst giving a sense of grandeur and elegance, were at the heart of the challenge to also ensure that the room felt welcoming for everyday use.

The bay window area was designated as a games zone, with a table designed for card games and chess. The fireplace was restored and made a focal point with a leather wrapped mirror above and wing backed chairs on either side of it.

The main buttoned sofa was made extra deep and with foam core and feather wrapped cushions in order to guarantee maximum user comfort and an array of cushions was added to give colour and interest. The occasional chairs were made bespoke from an image of an art deco chair which the clients liked, and designed with run ups for maximum comfort too.

The large chandeliers were made from Murano glass and the contemporary wall lights give drama to the three-colour painted panelling. The artworks were painted specifically for the clients by a renowned artist, to cut across the classical lines of the space and echo the look of a wood, reflecting the 250 acre grounds which surround the property.

Sander Sinot Designer and owner, Sinot

inot, a Dutch yachtdesign company, has unveiled a detailed model of what would be the world’s first hydrogen-powered superyacht, called AQUA, with engines that emit only water.

Sander Sinot, designer and owner of the firm says, “Using electric propulsion creates very little noise or vibrations.” The first design details of the 367-foot vessel were unveiled with a scale model of the superyacht at this year’s Monaco Yacht Show.

As you would expect of a ship of these proportions, the interior build is spacious and beautifully designed. The beam-wide owner’s pavilion occupies the front half of the upper deck, and includes a large bathroom, dressing room and a private spa section.

On the beach deck are the ships’ VIP state rooms, which are equally

spacious, outfitted in a minimalist Japanese beach-style.

Both at the starboard and port sides, floor-to-ceiling band windows create a vast viewing gallery. The ceiling ranges between 280cm to 380cm at the large central skylight, supported by a specially designed wooden structure, with the bedroom section located at the yacht’s axis.

The fully equipped spa includes hydro massage room, yoga space and workout floor and a gym-wide hatch that opens to reveal the ocean’s surface at water level. The ship’s central feature is a circular staircase, running from top to lower deck.

Situated on the bow is an observatory for seascape viewing, whilst the hull with raised front profile is angular and streamlined for cutting through the waves. Finally, the ship’s five-deck set up descends towards the sea, leading to a large swimming platform to the sea level. www.sinot.com »

More space to play

Designed to specification with a newly added enclosed skylounge and an open flybridge, a brand-new version of Horizon Yachts’ Fast Displacement 87 range, high-performance motor yacht, has joined the existing series. This was the result of a customer wanting to enhance the internal and external living space.

What makes this version different from its predecessor is the addition of a tri-deck perched on top of the extended hull of this latest 92-ft FD92 model.

Incorporated in this space is L-shaped seating, a sunpad and small bar in the helm. On the uppermost deck is a fridge and icemaker. The foredeck has a six-person Jacuzzi, seating area, sunpads and fridge/ icemaker. Aft of the enclosed skylounge houses the helm station, lounge seating and day head. »

Super Sport 65, a superyacht concept, is the outcome of Italian superyacht builder, Rossinavi and automotive style house Pininfarina joining forces for a second time.

The high-performance sports car inspired superyacht design has a touch of Pininfarina’s iconic style and is a nod to Aurea introduced in 2017 by the two companies in their first joint collaboration.

With a full aluminium build, the 65.5-metre superyacht has a maximum beam of 11-metres and a 2.2-metre draft, making it more manoeuvrable in bays and ports that would otherwise struggle to accommodate a boat of such proportions.

The ship’s twelve-birth interior has wide open spaces for guests in addition to the seven cabins reserved

for the captain and crew members.

To retain the sports car styling, the upper-deck of Super Sport 65 reflects Pininfarina’s Maserati inspired Gran Turismo. www.pininfarina.it/it/nautical

For the adventust

The new G300 superyacht from Dutch ship builder, Dynamiq is designed for adventure, with a full-aluminium hull. Engineered by Dutch naval architects Van Oossanen, this superyacht is capable of a top speed of 19-knots and an oceanic range of 4,000nm in a 200-gross ton design.

Other design features include a transformable upper deck salon with a real fireplace, for cosy sailing. On-board entertainment includes an inflatable pool, which comes as standard and attaches to the stern. www.bedynamiq.com

taly is fast becoming a top location for both local and foreign property buyers. Perhaps unsurprisingly, recent tax reforms have also brought a lot of investment into the country, especially with regard to lakeside homes. “Buying a lakeside villa or on an island amidst a lake has always been a way to own something unique and enviable, something others don’t have,” explains Riccardo Romolini, CEO and founder of Romolini Immobiliare, affi liate of Christie’s International Real Estate.

“In the 1990s prices for a villa on Lake Garda could easily reach €8,000 or €9,000 per sq metres. However, the global crisis of recent years caused the prices to plummet down to around €4,500 per sq metres and this still remains the reference value for the real estate market today. On the other hand, for properties on the shores of Lago Trasimeno, in the heart of Umbria, prices are definitely lower, ranging usually between €2,000 and €3,000 per sq metres. Variation is linked to the quality of finishes, the exact location, the view and other secondary factors such as services, roads, privacy and noise.”

Histoc jewels

Mr Romolini also points out that properties along the shores of Garda and Trasimeno are very different. “Those on Garda are usually modern buildings – at least, not older than 200 years! A great number of them date back to the 1970s when there was a boom in the market and many villas were built to satisfy such a great demand. Meanwhile, the Umbrian lake is surrounded by real historic jewels like castles, towers and farmhouses which boast centuries of history.”

Clemente Pignatti Morano, managing partner at Italy Sotheby’s International Realty, comments, “The beauty about the lakes in Italy is that they all offer something different and thus cater to different clienteles. For example, the three northern lakes, Lake Como, Lake Maggiore and Lake Garda, while all are scenic, each have their very own specific varieties of beauty, ranging from the surrounding » architecture, charm and history.

83

Italian Lakeside.indd 2

“Living on Lake Maggiore can be very diverse, depending on where along it the home is positioned. The lake is 65km long from north to south with its northern tip being in Swiss territory. Its Italian shores are divided between the regions of Lombardy to the East and Piedmont to the West, the latter being more prestigious and elegant. The views on Lake Maggiore and the nearby Lake Orta are possibly less dramatic than other major lakes in Italy, but are more charming and soothing. This has attracted an international clientele of mainly British, French and Northern European and consequently impacted the local architecture in the 19th and 20th centuries. Prices and market activity in Lake Maggiore has remained stable, with the most sales revolving around small villas up to €1 million, though there has been more demand for larger properties up to €3 million.”

Lake Como, perhaps the most famous, is renowned for its breathtaking views and high-profile owners, such as George Clooney. “The pleasant weather and closeness to Milan and Switzerland make it a true gem for the international elite and it is Italy’s most in-demand lake, continues Mr Pignatti Morano. “Como and the lakefront towns surrounding it directly (Torno, Cernobbio, Moltrasio) are in the highest demand for real estate, and have recently seen the emergence of prime new developments. This fact, combined with a very clear increase in demand over the past couple of years, has led to a gradual increase in prices with upmarket villas being valued between €5 million and even €10 million. Investors are essentially French, Dutch, German, Swedish, Russian, Australian and North American.”

Lake Garda is effectively Italy’s largest lake. The views towards the south from the hills on its northernmost portion are some of Northern

Italy’s most spectacular. “From a real estate standpoint, the southern shore has the most to offer and is in the highest demand,” concludes Mr Pignatti Morano. “Market activity and prices have remained at a sustained, if relatively stable, level over the past few years. The size and vastness of the territory leads means there is an abundance on offer, which has kept prices low compared to those in other prominent Italian locations. Lake Garda is mainly sought by a German, Austrian and Central European clientele, thanks to the ease of access via the Brennero highway.”

On location

Sara Zanotta, CEO of Lakeside Real Estate, a company specialising in properties around Lake Como, reports that 40% of its buyers are American, followed by British (30%), and then Australian, Indian, Arabian, Scandinavian and French. “Lake Como is a pretty cosmopolitan market

by Italian standards, helped by the easy access from the airports of Milan. Many blockbuster movies have been filmed in Lake Como, including Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones, Casino Royale and Ocean’s Twelve. It attracts investors but also families who come here for relocation.

“The waterfront period villas are visible from the water like on a catwalk, one following the other, each one with its unique beauty. There are some contemporary villas: a more minimal design, pure lines, wide windows to enjoy far reaching lake views. This kind of property has become more common on the lake only in the last years, due to the restrictions imposed by the Soprintendenza Archeologia, Belle Arti & Paesaggio office in Milano.

“Rustico is the traditional stone house of Lake Como.

Generally, set in peaceful locations deep in nature, with dominant positions and 180° lake views. Once renovated to respect the amazing original features and be in line with surrounding nature, these properties become among the most desirable retreats on the lake.”

Ms Zanotta advises that central locations are the most expensive. “Clients particularly value the convenient proximity to the services and to the lake,” she says. “Privacy is another crucial feature for the majority of buyers. For the future, we expect (based on the last three years’ trend) an increase in prices per square metre of around two to three per cent every year. The request is increasingly exceeding the offer, that’s why the prices are growing. Lake Como market is really mercurial, especially for some specific properties; often we don’t even have the time to advertise as they are already sold.”

Argegno, Lake Como Entering this immaculate property from its large terrace, gives the feeling of being in a ship suspended on the lake. The light-filled, open plan living areas include a fully equipped kitchen and wide French doors, enabling the lake to literally become part of the interior. The layout then comprises a master bedroom with lake views and panoramic doors, a second bedroom and a fully fitted bathroom with power and steam room shower.

The expansive terrace is the hub of the house with its glass parapet, giving a seamless conjunction with the lake. Below the main terrace, accessible via an outside staircase is another terrace complete with a Jacuzzi.

Eastern promise With the seventh largest economy in Asia, Taiwan offers a broad scope for internationals, set before a contrast of mountainous terrain and sweeping flat plains

L

ife in Taiwan is an extraordinary blend of modern cities and distinct cultural offerings. This combined with the current favourable economic conditions is capturing the interest of high net-worth individuals, as Michael Liu, Agent at JubonTaiwan Christie’s International Real Estate explains, “Low interest rates and low property tax rates have made investing in Taiwanese property attractive to a lot of overseas buyers from Asia, with Taipei, as an East Asian hub continuing to move up the liveability rankings.”

The quality and availability of local amenities is high in Taipei with a strong offering of luxury properties, as Mr Lui describes, “Residents have glowing things to say about the healthcare and education available here – even to expats. In the residential market, high‐quality facilities, exclusive mansions and serviced apartments are extremely favoured.”

With good current buying conditions, property interest is experiencing an upswing, “During the second half of 2019, residential sales along with prices have slowly increased. Prices had fallen over the last three years following government measures to curb speculative house purchases.”

The return of domestic buyers and regained interest from overseas clients is stimulating the real estate market, “We have experienced a trend in Taiwanese entrepreneurs from mainland China returning to Taiwan and this is increasing demand and in turn pushing up prices. In addition, the impact of the Hong Kong protest and improvement in investment environment by Taipei government, it is estimated that the proportion of foreign investors will increase in 2020,” he explains.

aa’s finest THAILAND

Twilight Oental With beautiful scenery and endless sunshine, it’s no wonder that retirees from across the globe are drawn to the tropical beauty of Thailand

T

hailand has long been a popular retirement destination given its attractive cost of living, warm climate, international-standard medical care, and foreigner-friendly visa regulations.

“A steady increase in international retirees has prompted the launch of new residential developments in Thailand such as Sunplay Bangsaray on the Eastern Seaboard, which offers high quality condominiums and pool villas for sale or rent, supported by integrated resort and hospitality facilities, with easy access from Bangkok and regional airports,” says Tim Skevington, managing director of Richmont’s affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate.

For city living, Bangkok offers a high life proposition, “In terms of luxury property, Bangkok remains very affordable when compared to many capital cities in Asia and around the world. In recognition of the relative attractiveness of luxury property in central Bangkok, several developers have shifted their focus to the luxury segment from mid-to-lower end projects,” he adds.

But for UK and European buyers, given the weak pound and Euro, property investment here has not made for an attractive proposition: “In our experience British and European buyers have been noticeably eclipsed in recent years by investors from across Asia. A big reason for this, especially as far as Brits are concerned, is due to the sinking GBP which is currently below GBP1 = THB40, a level I haven’t seen in 16 years here. Buyers from Hong Kong, Singapore and Shanghai are very active in the market as well as Australians looking for second or retirement homes”, says Mr Skevington.

“British buyers in Thailand now tend to fall into two broad categories”, says Mr Skevington, “retirees outside Bangkok who buy cheaper condominiums in resort areas and British expats who may have worked in Asia and who buy more expensive properties on the islands. There are a fair number of Brits who own condominiums in Bangkok, but we do not see many new buyers.”

A

rel atively fresh place of investment, the real estate market in the Maldives is opening up to international investors, “Only a few resorts have successfully built and sold private residences to foreign buyers, says Robert Green, founder of Sphere Estates.

“Since 2011 The Maldives has allowed overseas investors to purchase property in the country, increasing foreign investment. Property owners are able to benefit from a low tax jurisdiction, no capital gains, annual property tax, or inheritance tax, as well as renewable leases. Properties are sold on leasehold terms, currently for up to 50 years (depending on the length of time remaining on the resort owner’s headlease – residence owners cannot exceed the headlease term), although the government is seriously considering offering up to 99-year leases. Renewing or extending leases is relatively easy and not overly expensive.”

“The first to offer private residence sales to foreigners in an established resort in the Maldives was Soneva Fushi”, says Mr Green. He sees this as a property hot spot, “To date there are around twenty residences sold in Soneva Fushi itself, with few plots remaining, making this the Mustique of the Indian Ocean with an enviable who’s who of owners who desire discretion, privacy and sustainable luxury.”

COAST A draw for both domestic and international property buyers, Florida is attracting those looking for either the up-tempo lifestyle or the slower pace of life

A

sk any real estate agent or developer in Florida and they will tell you that the property market is booming here again, thanks to a sharp rise in demand from domestic and international buyers, which is being driven by the passage of new tax laws in the US. Ron Shuffield, President of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices EWM Realty explains, “Many luxury buyers are looking to relocate to states that do not charge a state income tax, which only leaves them seven options across the entire United States. Of those states that do not charge state income tax, Florida and Texas are the most populated, and the most popular.”

Demand from the domestic US market is being driven

by New Yorkers looking to relocate and Miami is offering an attractive option due to its similar lifestyle offering and plentiful supply of high-end properties, “Due to the natural synergies between the New York and Miami markets, we've seen an increase in the amount of luxury buyers from the northeast looking to purchase luxury property in the Miami area. By far the most popular area for high-end properties is Miami Beach. Most of the luxury and ultra-luxury homes being offered for sale are either gorgeous and modern new construction, or spectacular manses that offer breath-taking views and prime water frontage”, Mr Shuffield says.

Areas gaining appeal to this level of consumer include Coral Gables, Key Biscayne, and Coconut Grove. But to

prevent stagnation vendors must be realistic about pricing and be prepared to consider offers in line with market expectation, “We’ve been saying for quite some time now that prices in the high-end market have gotten too inflated. Sellers have been asking much more than buyers are willing to spend, which has many buyers waiting on the side-lines until prices come down. Alternatively, some buyers are confident enough in placing offers for what they feel the home's true value is and are presenting them to sellers with the hopes of igniting a conversation over price. All this being said, we are seeing that many sellers are beginning to reduce their prices, which has started to have a positive impact on the market, but there is still more to do,” Mr Shuffield adds.

Florida’s Gulf Coast continues to be attractive to buyers around the globe due to its array of lifestyle opportunities and world-class, resortstyle amenities.

Michael Saunders of Michael Saunders & Company says, “Today’s market in these areas provides healthy inventory for buyers to have their pick of Mid-Century bungalows, modern mansions, Mediterranean-inspired estates and soaring new condominiums from prominent names like The Ritz-Carlton. Median sales prices and days on market fluctuate throughout the region, with the high volume of new construction in the condominium market applying pressure on sellers of re-sale properties.”

This year has returned some good results says Saunders, “2019 has also presented some of the region’s highest sales in the last decade for properties priced above $3 million, showing that demand can be tapped when the condition, value and location align.”

Glitteng coastline

Head to South Walton and you will find a spectacular coast line of powder white sand and glittering aquamarine waters that has agreeably earned Florida’s Scenic Highway 30A the name, ‘The Emerald Coast’ and is enticing property investors from many of the largest cities in the American South.

This scenic corridor begins just east of Sandestin in Santa Rosa Beach where it runs from Emerald Coast Parkway and crosses through the picturesque beach side communities of Dune Allen, Blue Mountain Beach, Santa Rosa Beach, Watercolor, Grayton Beach, Seaside, Seagrove Beach, Watersound, Alys Beach, Seacrest and Rosemary Beach.

“The beaches of South Walton attract buyers seeking a slower paced lifestyle among a pristine and protected landscape, but all without forgoing the opulent amenities included in a resort atmosphere’, comments Adam Miller, broker associate at Go To The Beach, affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate.

According to Miller, now is a good time to invest in the US and looking ahead to 2020 and across the next five years he predicts a positive outlook for the property market here with interest from a mix of source markets, “With the US economy as it currently is, I believe there is confidence in the national housing market, as well as interest from international buyers looking to invest in the US housing market. In the coming years, in line with the overall national trend as published by our National Association of Realtors, I predict an increase in international buyers from countries like China, India, Mexico and the UK.”

Its award-winning project, Via Montejo in Merida, strives to have the soul of a city, featuring a series of urban zones within a master plan. These are defined by use, location and the relationship between architectural and landscape design. Each parcel is intended to attract different users at various times of day, appealing to a wide range of people and extending the active hours of the mixed-use project.

With its more than 600,000m² of construction on a plot of 250,000m², this visionary project represents one of the most impressive urban rescues of deteriorating areas in the southeast of the country. What used to be an abandoned industrial area is

now a living ecosystem, with beautiful lakes, gardens and other essential amenities for a tranquil lifestyle.

The development will contain a combination of high-rise, mid-rise and low-rise buildings; a series of signature open spaces; and a system of both vehicular and pedestrianised streets to link the varied uses within the master plan and connect the project to its existing context.

The integration of retail, dining, entertainment, office, hospitality, institutional and residential uses will create a new hub of activity for the bustling city. At the heart of the project is a large water feature which will act as a unifying element and central amenity for both residents and visitors to enjoy. Without doubt, Via Montejo will become a destination attraction with an unambiguous sense of community.

 D L represents one of the final opportunities to own real estate on Fisher Island in Miami, Florida – one of the world’s wealthiest zip codes. Developed

by Fisher Island Holdings, it is the second award-winning, ultra-luxury condominium and the final building in a two phase ‘velvet rope reserve’ residential development. Its sister building, Palazzo del Sol, won the ‘Best Residential Building’ award upon its completion in 2017.

Developer and 15-year Fisher Island resident, Heinrich von Hanau, chief executive of Fisher Island Holdings, engaged Miamibased architect Kobi Karp and Swiss landscape architect Enzo Enea to design Palazzo del Luna for the next wave of owners. Taking elevated luxury one step further, the project also features updated floorplans and amenities designed by the internationally renowned

firm, Champalimaud Design. The 10-storey boutique building with an enormous 5,110m2 footprint is comprised of 50 lavish residences ranging from 353m² to over 930m². Property choices range from three-bedroom homes to an exclusive centre penthouse complete with private rooftop terrace with pool, spa and outdoor kitchen.

Each of Palazzo Della Luna’s residences provides unobstructed 360-degree views of the Atlantic Ocean, famous South Beach, Biscayne Bay and Downtown Miami. This is thanks to a prime location on the final parcel of 8.1 acres of waterfront land. Other major goals that were achieved include harmonising the modern building with the private island community’s existing Mediterranean style and strict architectural codes and standards.

The developer has also ensured the ‘indoor/ outdoor’ lifestyle Florida is prized for is

maximised as often as possible; be it in the design of the deep and abundant unit terraces or the creation of a Central Park with bocce court, croquet lawn and gardens uniting the outdoor amenities of Palazzo Del Sol and Palazzo Della Luna.

Interiors designed by Champalimaud and built by ASR Interiors reinterpret the established concept of a European palazzo by combining traditional refinement with classical grandeur and contemporary aesthetics. Emphasised cores are juxtaposed with a delicate layering of elegant materials such as marble, gilded glass, bas-relief and terrazzo mosaics to create a sense of fluidity and movement.

The project’s target market represents the true one per cent of the world’s most affluent.

Therefore, its residences are typically acquired as a third or fourth vacation home by ‘global citizens’ who spend each year traversing the

world from property to property with their families or on business. The island’s private school has also attracted several young families with children to make Fisher Island their primary residence during the school year.

Amenities are equally geared towards clientele who are accustomed to the fullservice luxuries of the world’s finest hotels.

They include a butler-serviced aperitivo bar and waterfront lounge, two swimming pools serviced by attendants, a plus cinema-style theatre, hair, make-up and nail salon, state-ofthe-art fitness centre designed by The Wright Fit, business centre, massage and treatment rooms and a Kidville Cove children’s playroom.

All of these important elements have established Palazzo Della Luna as the true jewel in the crown of Fisher Island, representing Florida’s and the United States’ most exclusive coveted real estate.

It has a far-reaching, 360-degree vista of pristine forested gullies, rolling landscape, picturesque villages and over the turquoise Caribbean Sea and palm-lined beaches to Five Islands Bay. The mixed residential, commercial and hotel development has been master-planned by leading Caribbean architect, OBM, to allow its residents privacy, tranquillity and a wide range of on-site, five-star facilities. These include Carmichael’s fine dining restaurant, Sugar Club restaurant and lounge, Aveda Concept Spa, fully equipped Cybex gym and The Shed yoga pavilion. Round the clock security within

this gated community ensures that residents’ homes, families and guests will be safe and undisturbed.

Sugar Ridge has five retail units which house a boutique, real estate sales office and car rental operation, while a conference facility and hotel reception flank the car park for 30 vehicles.

Behind the reception lie the development’s 60 hotel rooms nestled into the hillside in groups of four. Accessed by its own entrance, Sugar Ridge also offers 45 fully serviced home sites, all with stunning views.

Sugar Ridge’s unique style throughout the resort has been created by interior designer Charmaine Worth who has focused on the theme of sugar in every imaginable incarnation.

Colours such as caramel, vanilla and molasses are mixed with textures recalling sugar cubes, sugar cane, honeycombs and crystals to create spaces that are warm and welcoming.

 H  first seen by Aidan McCauley in 2004 when his family moved to Antigua prior to developing Sugar Ridge. He was so inspired by the property that one of the resort’s model homes was based directly on this house. Ten years later when looking to move to English Harbour, Aidan was astonished to find Mollihawk was on the market.

The entire site comprised two adjoining plots totalling just over an acre on flat land at the top of a hill. Although the plots connected, they had been developed independently of each other. A poorly designed and constructed cottage at the back of the main house was demolished but the main house, although run down and needing extensive renovation, was retained. Built in

1963, its walls used historic stones from the then derelict Georgian Nelson’s Dockyard which it overlooks. This traditional art of stone masonry in Antigua was upheld during the property’s renovation as a team of masons, previously engaged in the restoration of Clarence House in London, were employed for 14 months.

The challenge was to re-purpose the space and to enclose it all to create a safe and secure home with a single front door. Some areas were completely rebuilt; walls were cut and new, larger windows were fitted throughout to maximise natural light and optimise the fabulous views. After three years, the property is now a beautiful three-bedroom family home with an additional one-bedroom private annexe, two-bedroom loft and onebedroom gatehouse.

 V R is an awardwinning mixed-use development by Litman Architects. The 42,000m² project in Uruguay has been designed to enable all apartments to have views of the Crystal Lagoon as its name suggests.

Crystal View comprises six blocks of modern five-storey buildings with garages below. The complex benefits from the exclusive use of two clubhouses with gyms, saunas, club changing rooms, playrooms and big solariums around indoor and outdoor pools with infinity-edges to the Crystal Lagoon. The surrounding landscape of its 12-hectare plot has also been carefully designed to harmonise with the environment.

The project was designed around Solanas Crystal Beach – the world-renowned Crystal Lagoon patent – also designed by Litman Architects and opened in 2016. This stunning

resort is 400 metres from the ocean at Portezuelo Beach and only a few kilometres away from the world-famous Punta del Este. The project thus benefits from an environment of relaxation amidst spectacular woods as well as closeness to Uruguay’s beautiful Atlantic coast.

This low-density complex was conceived in two stages to generate a gradual growth within the area, without affecting the microclimate of the development. Its contemporary buildings will combine an elegant, simple line architecture with traditional elements. The project is harmoniously incorporated within the Solanas Vacation Club which includes restaurants, a spa, tennis and football courts, heated pools and a Convention Centre.

Crystal View therefore represents an inner neighbourhood, with its own ambiance and elegance, but which easily connects with Solanas Crystal Beach.

Bathroom Worth the View

Naturally Lit Townhouse

E 2019-2020

   , Rusk transforms apartments and townhouses at New York’s premier addresses. The company has won a trio of awards for the following stunning interior design projects.

Bathroom Worth the View belongs to a client who bought two adjoining apartments in a tall needle building so that he could enjoy full 360-degree views of the Manhattan skyline. The existing bathroom featured standard finishes, regular painted white walls, a dark alcove shower and a hanging mirror that blocked the view. Therefore, the brief was to change the layout to optimise both the magnificent view and increase the amount of natural daylight.

Designed by plainspace Architecture and Design dpc and interior designer, Shari Pellows, the new bathroom provides exceptional views. A freestanding tub is now placed where

the original vanity stood and is raised on an attractive stone platform to conceal the piping and improve the view even more.

Rusk used photographs of stones for the walls and floor to achieve matches and align the veining before cutting. This has ensured that the veining is continuous between all three planes at each corner. A slender mirror proves adequate to conceal views from the adjacent building, while integrated electronic roller shades provides additional privacy when required.

The clients’ challenging brief for Naturally Lit Townhouse in Greenwich Village was to renovate the property as they were starting a family. Time was of the essence as an earlier bid to transform the property had been thwarted by a flood following Hurricane Sandy.

The project, designed by Haute Architecture, includes a new double-height living room, a new rear façade featuring high performance

Naturally Lit Townhouse

bronze framed windows, two additional bedrooms, a kitchen and both a rooftop and rear garden.

One of the prime considerations was to address the lack of light in the interior spaces – a common problem with townhouses in general. By cutting out the ceiling slab of the first floor and then detailing the new ceiling with a dramatic bevelled cut, light penetrates deeply into the interior. Furthermore, by placing all utility spaces in a central core that travels up through the house, light is able to wrap around the core and penetrate from front to back with no hallways or openings. In this minimalist interior, the stair was designed to be spectacular and the most remarkable feature of the house. Its final design called for a monolithic concrete stair featuring a sculpted underside that is a fascinating abstraction of the human spine.

House Colorful

The goal with House Colorful was to radiate a true family feel. The clients had already renovated one of two apartments that made up a floor of a Park Avenue building when the adjoining apartment became available. This combined apartment was to be a long-term home and so both apartments were gutted to incorporate spectacular finishes. With no two rooms having the same style or colour scheme, the project is a visual education in the decorative arts.

Every space was carefully designed by architect John B Murray and interior designer Katie Ridder in close collaboration with the owners. The resulting living spaces seek to express the use and purpose of each room while delighting the family. While the home has the solidarity and history of classic architecture, it is filled to the brim with colour.

Float by Yoo encompasses the best in architecture and development across its 14 floors and has been designed to become a landmark in São Paulo. Comprised of towers connected by free spans and walkways, each of the 29 exclusive apartments feels independent and unique. Ranging from one bedroom units, two-storey, two-bedroom options to spacious one-bedroom penthouses, all properties have two parking spaces.

Floor-to-ceiling windows offer residents fabulous views, while varying lay-out plans can be adapted to different designs and lifestyle needs. Located in a dynamic neighbourhood,

Float will enhance the area’s cosmopolitan and urban environment and has been supported by an impressive development marketing plan.

Nomad, which was built in Sao Paulo in the 70s as commercial offices, has now been renovated by SKR as a stunning residential building. The retrofit features open apartment plans, high ceilings, wide spans and openings which would not have been possible under current construction laws.

All units feel larger than those of comparable size and are enhanced by panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows for maximum ventilation and natural light.

Autonomy and mobility are key to Nomad, hence the project’s name. Addressing a wide range of public wants, it provides a great living experience to millennials as well as different generations with an ambition for something different.

  S P, Brazil, Aurinova specialises in developing residential and commercial projects of a consistently high standard. The company focuses on combining architecture, sophisticated design, sustainability and security throughout its customised projects for an exclusive audience.

Quartier Auri is a bold, stylish and elegant award-winning project that called for a spectacular design. Aurinova’s initial challenge was finding a solution that would stand out from the rest; one that was not bound to a specific architect’s trademark work or to any given country or continent.

A further significant challenge was to bring together various contemporary and historical architectural styles into a harmonious and

singular project that would exceed current urban standards. It was also to serve as a blueprint for Aurinova’s future construction.

Consisting of just 66 apartments of three different sizes (equating to only 13% of the 8,240m² site), the remaining 87% has been used for recreational space and green areas. This extremely low density is practically unheard of in the city of São Paulo and uses just half of the legally permitted building area.

Everything from the European-style bay windows in some of the master bedrooms to the striking Romanesque ground floor pillars; the English-style wrought-iron gates to the penthouse apartments with their art deco touches in the façade, every last detail was examined at length before being incorporated into the Quartier Auri project.

IBRIAN A  a Mexican firm with extensive experience in contemporary design, construction and interiors ranging from residential projects to commercial buildings and high-rise towers.

It has won an impressive four awards for the following two projects.

The client for Casa Vista Diamante was the architect Fernando Cibrian himself, founder of the company. He wanted a home that would represent all his wishes and aspirations, allowing a total escape from the outside world. The architectural design and interiors were projected together, creating a harmonious space. A massive, five-storey home built in between cliffs more than 20 metres deep, the property has fabulous views towards two volcanoes and the lush green golf

course. Each floor is dedicated to a specific use and a personal elevator makes the entire building easily accessible. Featuring exquisite finishes throughout as well as an admirable art collection, this home truly has it all.

Casa Valencia was commissioned by Pueblas State University to create a property for its annual raffle to raise funds for its students. The challenging brief was to build and fully furnish a home located in Puebla, Mexico suited to family use within a time period of just four months.

Balancing functionality and good aesthetics, Cibrian’s architectural design features large interconnecting shapes to create volume play on the property’s corner plot. Nordic style interiors featuring different wood tones blend beautifully with neutral colour palettes to form a stylish family home that can be enjoyed by anyone.

Its principals and staff encourage a well-planned and interactive design process with the project design team, striving to exceed the expectations of clients.

ADG Architects is very proud of Fifty 58, a newly constructed mixed-use building in Paramus, New Jersey. The project comprises 45 open-concept luxury apartments, including 18 spacious multi-storey units. Privacy for the residents is maintained by separating all of the residential units above a ground floor podium level shared by retail and restaurant uses as well as covered parking for the residents.

Residential tenants have access to life-style amenities such as a gym, community rooms

and a rooftop terrace complete with grills and a firepit.

ADG’s architectural design challenged the zoning regulations, creating the potential for larger and multi-storey units. This enabled the building to adopt a more luxurious and exclusive feel with volume ceilings, expansive windows, high-end finishes and impressive communal amenity spaces for residents. The focus was to create a distinct and luxurious building that would complement the high expectations of the local Bergen County residents. The project team favoured a contemporary style with open floor plans, expansive glass and open-air balconies to cater to both young professionals and active adults. Complete with a hip urban vibe, the design met the challenge of the client’s ambitious vision, responsibly developing a compact and complex site.

Its residential high-rise development, 1111 Atwater, is a mixed-use tower of 38 storeys located a few blocks away from downtown Montreal. It includes a commercial ground floor, 28 floors of retirement apartments and nine floors of exclusive penthouses.

The tower features contemporary architecture with pure, modern lines and, through the use of curtain walls and loggias, its shape creates a distinctive appearance. Two unique architectural features are at the heart of the penthouse section of the project.

Here, the Skylounge with pool terrace stretches out over space using a cantilever beam, while four pillars connecting the 31st and 33rd floors were designed to represent the address and project name. This subtle but important detail gives the building a unique

architectural signature in one of the most prestigious address in Montreal.

Its two residential uses target completely different clienteles and no other condo project offers such spectacular 360-degree views. The 22 privileged owners will have access to private elevators and remarkable communal areas that have been designed by the world-renowned Andres Escobar. The penthouses are geared towards a select clientele, while the seniors’ residence is designed to meet the needs of occupants aged 75 years and over.

In order to distinguish 1111 Atwater in an already very active luxury market, a strong, credible branding strategy was created to amaze and secure potential clients who have seen almost everything before. A pre-launch VIP event followed by an official launch two weeks later resulted in 40% of the condos being reserved. It confirmed that this remarkable project’s branding orientation, supported by a great marketing strategy, was successful.

It must also be sensitive to the critical needs of society but also responsible for future generations. This was exactly the challenge that Gama Master Broker undertook in the Riviera Maya.

Since its foundation in 2007, the company aimed to define its essence in clear objectives: to be pioneers in the concept of developments, leaders in their commercialisation and an example of corporate social responsibility.

It all started by bringing the concept of condo-hotel to the region with IT Hotel and positioning its value so highly that it won the Mexican Association of Real Estate Professionals’ most outstanding Master Broker Award in 2018. By creating cultural, nautical

Tuk Tulum

and organic communities with zero emissions, Gama Master Broker has been awarded by many international institutions.

Disruptive concepts turned their customers and developers into allies in raising awareness of a new era of harmony and well-being – a relationship of trust and mutual growth. This philosophy is reflected in over $238 million of sales, equivalent to 174,161m² of real estate experiences offering lifestyles with the same mission in mind: 100% profitable happiness.

Today, one of the greatest projects that demonstrates this is Tuk Tulum, the fully sustainable Cultural Epicenter headquarters, one of the first Innovation hubs in America.

   established in 2011, Dean Thomas Design Group has aimed to transform the luxury residential landscape. With an extensive, award-winning portfolio, the group is continually seeking to redefine conventions within the art of design.

Vista Point, an award-winning project by Dean Thomas within the inner city of Calgary, combines the clients’ differing preferences of architectural styles. By balancing traditional materials with strong horizontal forms, the design blends the simplicity and openness of contemporary design with the comfort and elegance of tradition.

The concept of the floorplan design was influenced by several key factors from the

clients’ main requirements list; a bright home that maximized the lot and its views, a winged design to keep the bedrooms separate from the entertaining areas and a four-car garage in which the bays did not dominate the front elevation of the home.

Situated on one of the most spectacular lots within Calgary, the design capitalises on the astounding city and valley views from every angle off the rear. To match the shape of the lot, and to maximize the rear width, the design was dialled five degrees outward, allowing each room to capitalise on the vistas it offered. Tall ceilings and large oversized windows open up the home, harmonising the residence with the surrounding landscape.

Dedicated to relaxation, it is perfect for gathering family and friends together.

Guests are welcomed by a charming tropical garden square with a pair of hanging rope swings and potted jaboticaba trees to complement the overall relaxing atmosphere.

Due to three large, fully glazed sliding doors, the living room with its fireplace and the gourmet kitchen are beautifully connected to the garden.

An absolute synonym of comfort and coziness, wood is incorporated into both the wall panels

Porcelain tiles adorn the floor, while other natural materials such as stone and brick bring a harmonic balance of nuances and textures present on surfaces and furniture. This palette has been intentionally selected in order to make the most of the client’s various works of art including sculptures and photographs by well-known artists.

Acoustic comfort was a key concern due to the building’s 4.30 metre-high ceilings. Thus, an exclusive designer rug has been suspended between the walls to act as both an attractive tapestry and sound absorption element.

Completing the project perfectly, lighting brings together external beacons and built-in dots creating a striking, contrasting effect.

Groenlandia is a 740m² residence constructed around 1950 that has undergone a stunning retrofit led by Fernanda Marques. The project required a number of structural alterations in order to meet the growing requirements of the clients, a couple and their three children.

Living spaces were optimised to enable the family’s many guests and enhanced by the use of a soft colour palette, natural materials and an abundance of lighting solutions. A new gourmet

area was created by moving the pool area to one side of the house, while ground floor openings were enlarged to form a better integration between the internal and external areas.

Panorama was designed for a keen art collector and his wife and so the main goal was to house all the works of art harmoniously, allowing for the collection’s future growth.

The owner also had an aspiration to include a swimming pool in the apartment. Building the pool presented the biggest challenge as Fernanda Marques decided to place it in pride of place in the living room. Thick glass was imported and specialised labour required to install the pool which has ultimately become yet another work of art within this superb two floor apartment.

BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS

Brandywine Estate Bayside Residences

L

  , TigerQi Architecture specialises in a contemporary design approach which embraces the simplicity and minimalism of modern design, but which respects and relates to the regional context and built-environment traditions of the Caribbean.

The company was commissioned to repair and remodel the Brandywine Estate Restaurant in the British Virgin Islands which was badly damaged by Hurricane Irma in 2017. Its brief was to rebuild a stronger, more functional and resilient space while enhancing the ‘shabby-chic’ charm of the original establishment.

A key consideration, which became a major challenge, was creating a roof to cover the previously open terrace. The owner favoured a dramatic, high-peaked, round roof focused

Brandywine Estate Restaurant Remodel

around a bar or another central feature.

Using heavy rustic timbers, an asymmetrical, leaf-shaped roof structure, reminiscent of an Elephant Ear leaf, was created. This echoes the floor plan of the terrace but is segmented rather than curved for ease of construction.

The resulting roof visually levitates while being supported by massive buttress columns clad in stone. This has helped to create a heavier, more masculine feel to balance and ground the airiness of the roof structure.

The restaurant is in the same area as the Brandywine Estate Bayside Residences, a previous award-winning project from 2018 also designed by Tiger Qi Architecture. This luxury waterfront townhouse development is currently under construction and comprises 10 three-bedroom, three bathroom properties.

   Emerald City, Seattle houses the Miller Interior Design studio with a number of beautifully designed commercial, residential and architectural projects under its belt.

The company has won a Bathroom Design award for its Sparkling Spa master bathroom remodelling project.

Keith Miller was given the task of making considerable changes to his clients’ outdated bathroom as they journeyed towards transforming a secondary home into a primary family residence. The end result was a marrying of individual style, modern aesthetics and attention to detail without compromising on luxury.

To begin with, the true beauty of the shower room was masked with low-quality, outdated fixtures and furnishings. Storage was uncomfortable to access owing to the awkward corner vanity and there was a lack of ventilation due to poor planning. However, the one redeeming quality is the large window showcasing the beautiful Pacific Northwest view.

A stroll into the renovated bathroom reveals cleaner architectural lines, opening up of enclosed spaces, high-quality fixtures, a customised Moroccan-style rug for visual interest, a frameless shower and the star of the show; a luxury freestanding tub transforming a mundane morning ritual into an appealing bathing experience.

 D G is a fiveperson firm that specializes in the architecture, renovation and interiors of fine homes. The following trio of awardwinning developments echo the seamless artistry and attention to detail that the business is renowned for.

A trip to South Carolina will reveal ‘The Lantern – A Beacon of Light’ property, which was built after a tragic fire destroyed the previous owner’s home. After friends and family visited and helped the couple salvage a few of their belongings, the favour was returned in the form of a lantern as a symbol of their gratitude, hence the property’s name. The builders utilized the lantern as a primary element of the architectural feature.

Hidden Meadows Farm

Constructed on an elevated slab, both the porches and interior spaces benefit from unobstructed lake views.

The Smith Residence is a mid-century modern home situated across three levels.

With an outstanding view of the lake Hartwell, key interior features include an appointed kitchen on the main level. The third floor boasts an elegant, contemporary master suite with a spa bath to ensure privacy.

Boasting an area of 651 acres of land, the Hidden Meadows farm fits comfortably within its rural surroundings. The design of the home unfolds to reveal two large wings set at 45-degree angles. One angled wing comprises the gourmet kitchen, while the other is home to the master suite with customised amenities.

Moran Apartment

  M, Uribe + Arquitectos creates architecture that infuses Mexican cultural elements with a new meaning, elevating them to a universal plane. Its work is characterised by exploring clients’ needs and transforming them into projects that merge design and technology. The company has won three awards relating to the following projects.

Klein Residence is located in an exclusive residential area and has spectacular views of the valley of Mexico City. The client’s requirements included four bedrooms, private family space, an open concept kitchen and generous social spaces for entertaining. A six-car underground garage, gym and service quarters were also included in the brief.

The heart of the house is the terrace as it is used all year round and even houses some

of the surrounding oak trees. Indeed, the principal inspiration of the overall design was the oak trees which make the house feel immersed in nature.

Moran Apartment is a penthouse owned by a mature couple with unique requirements that influenced Uribe’s final design. Their extensive art collection was one of the main focus points throughout the property as well as maximising the impressive Mexico City views.

One of the clients also has tunnel vision so high contrast colours and lighting was vital for safe navigation of the apartment. A major highlight of the interior design is the living room which has been designed around a painting by the renowned Mexican artist David Alfaro Siqueiros.

 N C  I specialises in kitchen and bath redesign to create fresh and contemporary spaces. As an awardwinner, the company focuses on vision, specific requirements and the desires of its clients. For this particular master bath project, the clients wanted a luxurious space for complete relaxation.

Customised designs tailored to their daily activities were required, including grooming facilities, a beverage centre and cabinetry with smart integrated storage. A steam shower with chromotherapy, aromatherapy, and ergonomic seating was a must, not only for sheer pleasure but for health benefits, too.

There was also a need for an adjoining shower with high-quality plumbing fixtures, which

was as a direct result of the clients sharing a love for health and wellness properties.

Custom cabinetry featured trash pull-outs, along with internal drawers and a grooming appliance storage cabinet. The original closet was completely demolished, giving new life to a custom closet with an island and integrated shoe pull-out storage. A coffee bar with integrated sink, beverage centre and a pull-out k-cup holder helps the clients start off their day without ever leaving their master retreat.

The bathroom features sleek sculptural lines and minimal aesthetic with neutral backgrounds. The ceiling cove was transformed into a rectangular shape and custom fabricated curved metal lights with cut-outs extended across the cove, casting light patterns below.

KCG R E in the Czech Republic has snapped up four awards for its Bořislavka Centrum development and architecture. Founded in 2012, KKCG was established for the purpose of ensuring effective management of the group’s remarkable real estate projects.

Bořislavka Centrum is situated in a prime location of Prague 6, on Evropská Avenue, which sees an influx of visitors. Acting as a link between the city centre and the Vaclav Havel International Airport, the avenue passes the prestigious districts of Hanspaulka, Střešovice and Ořechovka. Due to the higher altitude, the site offers visitors beautiful views of Prague Castle and the nearby city centre.

The design by Aulík Fišer Architekti took on board its client’s idea of having a functional architectural development that would be fully accessible and permeable to pedestrian traffic and would also fit in with the existing buildings in the vicinity. The structure is visually appealing as it looks like crystals scattered across a landscape, which makes up a significant use of the green space.

Within this luxe development you’ll find a fine dining restaurant on the upper floor, a supermarket, a shopping mall with a host of things to see and buy, a main lobby featuring a light sculpture from Lasvit, beautifully landscaped interior gardens, as well as a café and piazetta for visitors to lounge the day away.

   Jaspers-Eyers Architects are formulated with precision and sheer creativity. The international practice provides full architectural design, programming, urban design, master planning and graphic and interior design services for clients in both the public and private sectors.

Paradis Express and City Hall Hasselt are two of its award-winning projects.

Offering a mix of offices, residences and mixed-use functions such as medical practices and a crèche, Paradis Express in Liege, Belgium was influenced by the hilly scenery around.

The result sees the undulation of the green hills carried through inside the project, making it an extension of the rolling landscape.

The development also connects two important buildings in the area: Santiago

Calatrava’s train station and the beautifully constructed Paradis Tower. Throughout the whole site, clear perspectives establish a relationship with the environment. A number of green spots bring nature into the project, thus creating a healthy and lively meeting area.

On the other hand, City Hall Hasselt is a unique combination of old and new; a connection between the past and the present integrated into the heart of the city. The new structure blends in seamlessly with the adjoining plaza, as well as the old neoclassical gendarmerie building from 1879, now housing a restaurant, offices and meeting rooms. The base of the new building consists of three floors that are open to the public; a cafeteria separates these from the upper five floors which feature the offices.

   key developers in Moscow, KR Properties has been implementing large-scale and landmark projects for the city since 2001. The two following awardwinning projects are prime examples of the company’s expertise.

Roza Rossa is a modern, uniquely designed apartment complex and boutique hotel. Located in Khamovniki, one of the most tranquil and convenient neighbourhoods in central Moscow, it is the first truly original project in Moscow real estate. The complex has been completely conceived by the world-renowned Italian architect and designer Piero Lissoni. Everything from the architecture to the furniture has been designed in a contemporary European minimalist style. It ranks among the iconic projects of theatres, hotels and residences developed by the Lissoni Associati bureau.

The development has 120 apartments for permanent living on the left and right wings of the main building with separate entrances and lobbies. The central part contains the boutique hotel with 90 rooms run by the prestigious hotelier Metropol Moscow. This means that the owners of the apartments can enjoy the peace and seclusion of their own homes while also utilising the hotel’s infrastructure and roundthe-clock services.

The first floor will house boutiques, restaurants and bars, a spacious spa area with a swimming pool and gym and meeting rooms. Homeowners will be able to access their apartments via the hotel’s main entrance as well as via separate entranceways with their own lobbies and lounge areas. The building will also have an underground parking garage, areas for technical vehicles, bicycles and motorcycles.

Kuznetsky Most 12 by Lalique

Kuznetsky Most 12 by Lalique is a meticulous renovation project being carried out by KR Properties in collaboration with the world-renowned French brand. This union is unprecedented, not only for the Russian real estate market but also worldwide.

Lalique’s crystal creations will beautify the entranceways, lifts, staircases, residential floor galleries and the apartments’ bathrooms.

Located in the midst of Moscow City, the building is distinguished not only by its exquisite façade which is reminiscent of Renaissance-era Italy but also the handmade stucco decoration of its interiors. The decorated arches and columns of the central gallery, including garlands and curving fixtures that crown the cornices, have all been perfectly preserved. Renovated reliefs and plafonds, framed doors and mirrors, fireplaces, wrought-

iron staircases and balcony enclosures will beautify the reinvented commercial spaces, lobbies and apartments.

The historic façade on Pushechnaya Street has already been completely restored, while the other façade on Kuznetsky Most Street is still being worked upon. The restoration project will also include a revival of the building’s interior architecture such as dismantling mezzanines and superstructures that appeared during the Soviet period. This will enable the historical atrium and its stucco moulding to be displayed in their full beauty.

This iconic building, which long served as a centre of aristocracy and celebrities in the 19th century, will soon be reborn with 61 luxurious apartments and penthouses, with fashion galleries, a fine dining restaurant and French café on the lower floors.

ELITE BATH+KITCHEN Zuckermandel

Dvorákovo nábrežie, Bratislava

 - Siko Group is a private family-owned Czech company that specialises in bathroom and kitchen equipment. With an aim to offer more luxury solutions for clients with higher standards, the creation of Elite Bath took centre stage. Following the success of this establishment, there was a clear need for expansion outside of Prague, so a bathroom and kitchen interiors showroom was opened in Slovakia.

Inspired by the functionality, materials and visuals of its Prague premises, the Bratislava branch was fitted with additional mod cons to give clients a visually-appealing representation of the end result they could potentially have.

Overall unity in style, tone and design was essential. Included in the design was a fully

functional spa, a Bulthaup kitchen with a large dining table, where company staff regularly meet for dinner with clients, architects and developers. Tilted platform podiums, each with a specific floor surface, function as presentation spots for a solitary product range.

One initial problem was creating an intimate spa and separating it from the rest of the showroom. This was solved by using special electronic milk glass, which provides privacy only when it is needed. An electronically controlled vertical shower with sensors and three settings; aromatherapy, chromotherapy and water features increased the design standards. A table decked out in faucets allows clients to test more than 20 functioning faucets with multiple types, shapes and colours to choose from.

The aim is to show clients a unique way in which to live. The apartments are stylish and trendy, with quality furnishing and special accessories which make daily life easier – novelties that have afforded the company three awards.

The project is located in a part of Prague called Luka-Stodulky. The Luka settlement is part of the Southwest Town housing estate complex which was projected and built more than 40 years ago by architect Ivo Oberstein.

Featuring one to five-bedroom fully equipped apartments, the project is located in immediate proximity to Central Park, which is part of the beautiful Prokop Valley. Central Park itself has two retention ponds, a stream, a grove, several playgrounds and an outdoor fitness gym. There is also a restaurant next to the park.

Clients can enjoy the fitness and wellness facilities, while a short stroll to the adjacent shopping centre offers a variety of shops and restaurants. The apartments are next to the metro station where it only takes 15 minutes to get to the centre of the town. Garages with charging stations for electric cars are another highlight with a short 15-minute journey to the airport on the cards.

 - Viceroy Residences are situated at the heart of Ombria Resort, a development spread over 150 hectares. Designed as an elegant Portuguese village with all the charm and character of a long-established settlement, its graceful design reflects the surrounding architecture of the interior of the Algarve. This can be seen at the Fonte da Benemola nature reserve, the rural communities of Querenca or Tor and the cultural hub of Loulé The inspiration for the project was its unique, unspoiled location – a valley close to the historic Algarvian market town of Loulé, a natural sub-region of the Algarve between the mountains to the north of the region and the coast to the south.

Each of the 65 one and two-bedroom apartments comes fully furnished. The indoor spaces incorporate local natural materials into bespoke kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, terraces, private swimming pools and jacuzzis.

With sustainability at its forefront, energyefficient methods, materials and energies were incorporated to minimise environmental impact. These include electric vehicle charging posts, a low-impact geothermal system, which uses water to transfer heat energy found just below the ground surface for climate control, hot water supply and swimming pool heating.

Backing up the system will be a network of vacuum solar panels that will support the hot water supply, heated exterior pools and transfer heat to the geothermal system.

   Channel Islands, Comprop is a leading privately-owned property developer of both commercial and residential sites in Jersey and Guernsey. The company has won two awards for its Havelet Waters project located on the southernmost end of the St Peter Port sea frontage in Guernsey.

Comprop’s aim was to create a combination of one, two and three-bedroom apartments of a very high-quality relative to the Guernsey housing market. The final design consists of 34 apartments that are one or two-bedroom with at least one parking space for each unit, arranged around shared open spaces that maximise the potential of harbour views.

The steep hillside site was about two thirds covered by a 1960’s semi-industrial concrete framed structure that contained the working part of a former brewery. This was demolished

and replaced with a new contemporary building. The remaining area had a traditional Georgian building (originally the brewery office), which was also demolished and a new building constructed to precisely replicate the original. This reused many of its features which had been carefully removed and retained to be incorporated into the new development.

The concept, scale, massing and detailing of Havelet Waters have set a new benchmark in contextual design along the St Peter Port seafront. The variety of external styles, whether Georgian, contemporary or warehouse/semiindustrial are reflected in different interior design styles so that the external character follows through to the interiors. This gives the development a unique character that stands it apart from anything else on the Guernsey property market.

To create the perfect solution, a mix of old and new furnishings were used across four floors. Tall windows in the main hallway allow lots of light in, while classic checker flooring reflects the client’s sophisticated taste and professionalism.

Hand-painted ceilings, mahogany meeting tables, bespoke desks and storage units made to blend in with the interior of the walls are

but a few of the additional striking features throughout the building. Restored photographs of earlier building residents were printed onto brushed steel panels and fabrics to create impact. The owl motif is part of the company brand and is creatively referenced in the interior design elements.

Other features include a marble fireplace, a coffee bar as well as a cantine-bistro for employees and guests. The walls use soft colour hues to give a sense of calm and lightness, while the majestic front façade offers executive meeting rooms with an unbeatable garden view.

Iron gates and railings designed by FabLab use the four-leaf clover motif, while 2,500 tulips cover the garden outside with walkways dressed in pink cobblestones and granite.

To make the most of the landscape, the structure was placed on the edge of a mountain by the Poggio Rosso nature reserve, facing southwest across the valley of the Singerna river with uninterrupted views of Monte Faggetto and Lake Montedoglio.

Built in the style of a classic Tuscan Casa Padronale, the first floor houses a large openplan kitchen, dining and living space with an outside balcony, while the second floor has two double bedrooms. The master suite is generously sized with a walk-in wardrobe, shower room and secret storage.

Covered loggias are featured to the east and west, transforming the home into a relaxing, open-walled living space. You’ll find a large bathroom underneath servicing the master bedroom suite to the west and a plant room to the east. A nod to modern living comes in the form of large window openings, insulated walls and roof ensuring that the home remains refreshingly cool in summer and warm in winter.

Ana Engelhorn Interior Design Ltd

   for creating timeless interiors for residential and commercial properties, Londonbased interior designer Ana Engelhorn uses her knowledge to design visually appealing spaces.

Her creativity has won her an award for the Farmhouse Catalan in Spain.

The farmhouse isn’t short on old-fashioned charm and historical facts as it comprises two towers dating back to the 16th century – both used to watch for pirates coming in from sea. The residence had previously undergone small renovations to create little rooms, a fake ceiling and two stairways, thus removing the elements that made it truly unique. Ana’s task was therefore to bring this building back to its former glory by removing the additional walls, ceiling and second staircase to give the family a three-bedroom house they could use as their summer residence.

The outcome included the restoration of traditional stone floors and the inclusion of antique oak boards upstairs. To accentuate the property’s high ceilings, large airy rooms were needed to coincide with the beautiful Spanish countryside. A large open-plan kitchen coupled with a dining room and two children’s bedrooms can be viewed on the southside of the building.

On the north side, a brief wander through a walkway leads to a large living room, while the first floor houses a large open-plan master bedroom that includes a dressing room and bathroom designed with a freestanding cast-iron bath. The first floor allows access to the towers, with the west tower being used as a library and the east as a shoe closet.

Overall, hints of pale colours adorn each room highlighting antique furniture and contemporary art.

Surrounded by olive trees and natural scenery, it comprises seven five-bedroom split villas and two six-bedroom two level villas. A study to determine the development’s positioning ensured that all villas benefitted from an unobstructed sea view and that no other residence will mar the view now or in the future.

One of these properties, Pearl Sea Caves Villa 7, has won two awards, adding to Island Blue’s already impressive portfolio of winning

projects. It belongs to a couple with three children who approached Island Blue with specific requirements for their home. Shared family spaces, indoors and outdoors, were of great importance to them.

The clients’ brief was 100% achieved throughout the property. A swimming pool was placed within close proximity and in full view of the covered veranda, while an exquisite flower bed fuses the home with its natural surroundings. Although an open plan concept was the main focus during the design process, a feature fireplace and TV unit has been created to separate the kitchen/ family room from the dining area. This adds a touch of privacy yet still maintains the clients’ favoured open living spaces.

Designed for office and retail establishments, it is located approximately 100 metres from the major landmarks of the capital: Sigimund’s Column and the Royal Castle, making it an ideal location for the culturally curious. In 1980 the old town was placed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as an example of outstanding restoration of the historical centre of a town annihilated by the war.

Wojciech Grabianowski, the project architect, was tasked with creating the simple and elegant structure, successfully merging it with the surrounding historical monuments

while retaining its individual modern characteristics.

The building consists of two underground floors with a car park and four usable aboveground level floors. A restaurant overlooking Plac Zamkowy square occupies part of the ground floor and first floor. Classical windows resembling those in the neighbouring buildings have been put in the plastered walls on the first and second floor.

The ground floor has been finished off with stone plates from shell limestone, while the upper floors have been tiled with fine granular plaster.

More importantly, the building was designed with sustainability in mind – it is one of Warsaw’s ‘green buildings’ thanks to the use of energyefficient and environmentally friendly solutions.

The innovative project merges elegant architecture, contemporary design and highend technologies into one.

Its interior and exterior design is inspired by the building’s location on the shores of the Black Sea in Odessa, Ukraine. The team first strengthened the adjoining sea slope to safeguard the project and make access to the beach safe and convenient for residents. The architects were inspired by the sea breeze and the silhouettes of modern superyachts. Thus,

the dynamic façades of Arcadia Park residence feature yachts’ outlines; a combination of various textures and a mix of colours are reflected in them.

The open roofs of the second floor of the podium which connect through the towers, feature an extensive leisure area with sun decks, children’s swimming pools, fountains and green alleys. Additionally, on the roof of each of the four towers there are green zones which blend with the layered landscape of the sea slopes. Extensive leisure amenities also include three lounge pools, a fitness centre and spa, boutiques, restaurants, cafés and separate children’s sports grounds. With Arcadia Park Residence, Intergal-Bud has achieved a superb balance between aesthetics and functionality to make it a true gem of Odessa.

The refurbishment project features five en suite bedrooms, two living areas, two dining spaces and two guest WCs. The attention to detail is exceptional with the use of pale and pastel colours, calm ivory and light beige wall claddings contrasting perfectly with reflecting metals, glass and mirrors. A standout element is the pale pink tree artwork, which symbolises

‘life’. The light sculpture with its glittery branches of hand-blown crystal glass on a polished nickel finish is exceptional, along with a 270-degree serene view of the city.

On the other hand, the most innovative and challenging design was the creation of a bathtub for the lady of the house’s bathroom. With more than 200 backlit crystal glass tubes forming a belt around the tub complemented with the rose precious stone top, it’s truly one of a kind.

The bathroom is accessed through two sliding doors, while ceiling high tinted glass create a separation for the shower. Also included is a steamer, extra-large vanity basin and a handblown crystal chandelier installed into the high ceiling to provide a daylight effect.

The apartment’s planning can be described as simple and logical. It consists of three rooms with a large living room and a space that combines the kitchen with the dining room.

There are two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two dressing rooms and a laundry room. Two loggias with lounge areas were also added to

the living space next to the kitchen and one of the bedrooms.

The neoclassical style and the colour white was chosen as the starting point. From there, white cornice mouldings created a beautiful contrast with colourful modern furniture.

This added a certain cultural context resulting in an interior which could be found in any European capital. The apartment is full of designer’s inventions but also features many of the clients’ own ideas. They even visited iSaloni fair in Milan with the designer to choose specific furniture for the living and dining rooms and the master bedroom. Thus, the interior’s striking colour palette, stylish furniture and impressive contemporary artwork came to life.

- , Core Architects, is a boutique architecture company offering a holistic and integrated approach to real estate design and project management. The company specialises in nearly zero energy buildings and promotes sustainability through green technology to ensure its real estate goals serve the health of residents and the environment.

One such project, located 15 minutes away from the beautiful Algarvian coastline, ticks the environmentally-friendly boxes. The task was to create a bold, contemporary mansion with all bedrooms benefiting from an en suite and a private balcony.

Casa Azul emerges into view through the oleander-lined drive. The house is designed alongside the old growth olive and citrus trees, and the walls to the north-west act as protecting shields against the predominant north-west

winds. The main entrance to the home is through a vertical open-plan sequence leading into the main living area.

The double-height ceilings in the living and kitchen area are linked to the dining and outdoor terraces, which also lead to the pool. The inward-facing composition allows for a visual connection to the rural fields and courtyards to the rear of the property. The rooms are characterised by tangential walls, specifically calculated roof overhangs and cleverly placed vertical shading elements, which passively regulate the indoor temperature, heating and cooling, without additional energy consumption.

From a historical sense, a three-minute drive will reveal the area of Louie, a traditional Portuguese market town, known for its Arabicinspired market. There’s also an ancient castle, a gothic church and remnants of Louie’s solid defences, making it a great area to explore.

IATRAONLINE   award-winning Romanian company that started its activity 11 years ago as a natural stone dealer and later turned into a creative hub for architects, designers and design-enthusiasts.

With clients in over 21 countries, Piatraonline completed over 40,000 projects. One of them is the Madrigalului residence, located in Bucharest, near forest and lakes, in the beloved Băneasa neighbourhood.

The client brief was a contemporary home with a touch of glam. In a long and narrow ship-like one-bedroom apartment, wood and leather are mixed with natural stone, achieving a high-end contemporary atmosphere to create a striking and high-end abode.

The final result revolves around volumes and light for maximum appeal. For the bedroom, the most intimate room, an onyx slab that changes its colour in relationship to light dominates an entire wall, which makes for a truly original setting. The open kitchen has a customised sink as a central piece, made of Calacatta marble that facilitates the transition from kitchen to living room – an essential aspect for many family gatherings.

Every element is integrated into the concept: the engraved copper door acts like a perfect central piece for the narrow shape of the apartment. The final result is summed up in clean lines, precise design, with visible yet discreet details, all inspired by nature.

 C,  in St. John’s Wood, London has been designed as an architectural pioneer for London’s residential landscape, with Simon Bowden Architecture being specially chosen to partner with award-winners Regal London to bring a shared vision of innovative, residential architecture to life.

The project is a distinguished architectural landmark that both enhances its surroundings whilst also demonstrating the ethos and design for which Regal London is renowned. The Compton occupies an unrivalled location in the sought-after district of St John’s Wood, which is just a three-minute walk from two of London’s most renowned attractions – Lord’s Cricket Ground and Regent’s Park.

Every apartment benefits from a balcony and – for those on the upper floors –

uninterrupted views onto Lord’s Cricket Ground, Regent’s Park and the city beyond.

One of the first cast aluminium clad buildings of its scale in Europe, The Compton is a truly bespoke addition to the London skyline, with a characterful curved facade.

With its unprecedented use of aluminium and notable leaf detailing, The Compton is a feat of engineering and design that artfully juxtaposes progressive design.

The team at Simon Bowden Architecture undertook a feasibility study of what would be possible to build on the site before exploring architectural options. It was at that point that the idea for using recycled cast-aluminium was born. This gave existing materials a new lease of life and led to the creation of a facade that spearheads innovation and elegance.

  C, Architect Ante Vrban has proved to be a highly consistent, award-winning company with over 300 developed luxury projects around the globe. Its latest accolade is for the interior design of Villa Gabrijela, a private residence on the coast of Istria with fabulous views to the sea and surrounding ancient olive trees.

The client’s brief was to create an interior which would be vibrant, fresh and filled with light. Signature mirror stripes, which are present in every project Architect Ante Vrban has created, have been incorporated into the design to great effect. Covering 264m² of total living area, the villa includes five bedrooms and four bathrooms plus a living and dining room with an open kitchen, all in one open space. The first-floor terrace is partly covered to accommodate an al fresco kitchen and grill,

making the area perfect as a summer dining room with plenty of privacy.

Villa Gabrijela includes the latest state-ofthe-art technology integrated into its interior with LED lights, a sound system and signature linear floor LED lighting custom made by the architect. Forming a continuous border throughout the property, this frames the interior with ambient light. All floors are made of onyx marble slabs with heating beneath for winter comfort, while bathrooms each have different marble on their floors and walls.

Walls and doors have been insulated for sound and the furniture has been custom made from Architect Ante Vrban’s 2018 collection.

Architect Ante Vrban is the main architect of the Croatian EXPO Pavilion on 2020 Dubai Expo, along with several other luxury projects in the next two years that are booked in advance in his schedule.

 A  I is an award-winning design company in Mykonos, Greece, headed by Anna Tsalikian. Its aim is to use the power of architecture in a positive and productive manner, delivering results that exceed clients’ expectations, aspirations and imagination.

The company was commissioned to transform an old, dilapidated minimarket in the heart of Mykonos Town into a sophisticated clothing store named Sign Boutique. The main goal was to create an authentic ‘Mykonian’ ambience by embracing the traditional style of Mykonos. Built in the 1920s, primarily out of stone, the thick walls are a main structural support, meaning that no change could be made to them. Despite this constraint, the 34m² long

and narrow space already featured beautiful high ceilings and an impressive arch.

As the existing storefront was very limited, the first obstacle to overcome was the lack of available window display. However, by using the entrance as the boutique’s shop window, the entire interior has become the subject of display. A primitive feel has been maintained throughout the interiors with driftwood features, stone shelves and wovenwire pendants imitating fishermen’s baskets.

At the far end of the space, two changing rooms were created behind the curtains, while a large mirror adds extra depth to the retail environment. Additionally, a small outdoor seating area extends the shop while also neatly hiding the air-conditioning unit.

The first, Marina Beachfront Villa is located within four minutes walking distance from the new starting Paphos Marina. It is a seven-bedroom property featuring a design influenced by its panoramic views of Coral Bay in Cyprus. It includes a luxurious spa, gym, cinema room and swimming pool as well as a garage with convenient access to the kitchen.

The villa’s L-shaped layout has floor-toceiling windows blending the boundaries of the indoor and outdoor space. Panoramic glass doors and an open plan design connect the owners with nature in a holiday environment.

The use of local stone adds a timeless quality

while also giving the house a modern, aerodynamic concept, complemented by highquality finishes and soft, muted tones.

The second winning project is Business Center which takes inspiration from both its city and sea views of Paphos, Cyprus. One of the exterior walls features an eye-catching artistic metal design, while the entire building is high tech, including the client’s apartment on the top floor. It was designed with an open plan concept and has seven floors including underground parking and an accessible roof garden.

There are no columns inside the building which gives the layout greater flexibility, enabling the planning of offices to be changeable at any time. Its acoustically friendly spaces with comfortable lighting and optimum temperatures increase employee satisfaction, productivity and wellbeing.

Lodwick is SD Architects’ award-winning architectural project in Southend-on-Sea, Essex. The property’s site was unique in that it is located at the end of a cul de sac and in an elevated position. The client’s brief was to design an inspirational, contemporary family home, maximising the site’s panoramic views of the Thames Estuary. The aim was to create a Miamistyle house that interacted with the south facing views of the estuary, beach and beach huts.

Designed over three floors plus a basement level with swimming pool, entertaining space and health complex, the ground floor has been derived around two zones or pods. One is a curved structure that opened the main entrance into a large, double-height hallway, while the other is a crisp, linear form with curved external walls.

The first floor continues the two-pod theme, incorporating the master bedroom suite in the east wing and opulent girl’s bedroom suite and a guest en suite bedroom in the west wing. At second floor level, the design is at juxtaposition to the rest of the house, providing two equal-sized boys’ bedroom suites with the most fabulous panoramic views imaginable.

Warriner Yeat, Crook, Kendal, Cumbria, LA8 8LH United Kingdom

- Ben Cunliffe Architects, based in the Lake District National Park, designs innovative, elegant and sustainable architecture. Established in 2001, the company has brought together talented architects and designers who endeavour to make design and construction an enjoyable experience for clients.

One such project is the Windermere House, located on a hillside development above Lake Windermere. The stunning location is populated with generously spaced, high-end, residential properties, and in 2017 UNESCO awarded the Lake District with a World Heritage Site status.

The existing Windermere House consisted of a 1970s bungalow that had undergone extensive refurbishment over the years.

Although previous refurbishment works had been substantial, the rooms felt constrained

and small. Two garages were attached to the house on the southern gable and a centrally placed front door and hall, dominated the garden views and the main elevation.

The space was transformed into a magnificent five-bedroom home. The new kitchen, separated from the main living space by two glazed pocket sliding doors, was opened up to the eaves creating a sense of openness and airiness. Large glazed external doors were added to the ground floor rooms generally maximising natural daylight within the space and providing access to the garden terraces.

A floating cantilevered oak and Perspex staircase effortlessly transfers you from the ground to first floor level where the bedrooms enjoy views of Lake Windermere, creating a successful scheme hinged on achieving fluidity in the spatial configuration.
