This issue pays homage to the architectural grandeur of golf properties in Barbados and Spain. Barbados, known for its laid-back Caribbean vibe, has long been a fully immersive and diverse destination. With an enviable culture, decadent weather, lush vegetation, exotic wildlife and beautiful beaches, the country is a favourite for many visitors.

Spain on the other hand is teeming with idyllic landscapes, stunning coastlines and pretty towns. Offering endless opportunities for property investors, the golf properties here will come with “some kind of special price or discount for the golf course and/or clubhouse. Anyone buying a property at La Cala Golf, for example, will receive a ‘privilege card’ that provides them with discounted golf, hotel bookings, beauty treatments in the on-site spa, sports lessons at La Cala Golf Academy and the resort’s three restaurants,” says Marc Pritchard, Director of Sales and Marketing at Taylor Wimpey España.

If it’s more escapism you’re after, London’s Holland Park has beautiful tree lined streets and eye-catching townhouses. The wonderful 54-acre Holland Park itself, with the Holland Park Opera, Kyoto Garden and the Princess Diana Memorial Playground, elevates this area, making it the perfect location to call home.

Retreats are a great way to escape the stresses of everyday life enabling you to come away from your healing holiday feeling refreshed, energised and healthy. We have therefore rounded up four outstanding selections located in Switzerland, St. Lucia, the Maldives and Montenegro. Not to worry though as we’ve still included our regular finery, watches and drive features, each bursting with noteworthy designs that will surely make an impact.

Holland Park Beauty both in nature and in architecture

Photo John D Wood See page 16

L Andy Harris Head of Flats John D Wood & Co. Kensington and Notting Hill

ocated on the western edge of central London, Holland Park falls within the boundaries of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. With its tree lined streets and attractive townhouses, this area was initially developed in the late 1800s by brothers William and Francis Radford, said to be responsible for more than 200 of the properties here. At its heart lies Holland Park itself. With its 54 acres of gardens, this, the Royal Borough’s largest park, was once home to a large Jacobean mansion then called

Cope Castle, later renamed Holland House. The house was badly damaged in WW2, and today just one wing remains.

Andy Harris, Head of Flats at John D Wood & Co. Kensington and Notting Hill told us that it is this green space which draws many people to the area. “The key attraction is the wonderful 54 acre Holland Park itself. It plays host to the Holland Park Opera, has the stunning Kyoto Garden and the Princess Diana Memorial Playground which is ideal for children. In addition, to the south of the park you have the

Design Museum which moved from Shad Thames to Kensington High Street in 2016. Julie’s Restaurant is a much-loved hideaway and extremely popular with local residents, especially on late spring evenings.

Belvedere Restaurant in Holland Park is also fantastic, and has lovely views over the formal gardens, as is Flat 3 on Holland Park Avenue that serves top-notch Japanese cuisine.”

Salvatore Raia, Sales Branch Director, Kinleigh Folkyard & Hayward (KFH) Holland Park described the style of properties on offer here.

“There are principally two main styles of property in Holland Park, both equally beautiful. We have striking Italianate villas and the typically beautiful 18th century Victorian period homes. Some of the most sought-after properties feature large private gardens which back directly on to private communal gardens, often several acres in size. We also have, by contrast, a stunning new development, Eighty Holland Park; an inspiring collection of individually designed town houses. With local roads, avenues and mews all sharing the same name, Salvatore told us a little about the most sought-after addresses: “The most desirable is Holland Park with one side backing onto the park itself, the other with historic Mews houses, once home to the owners’ horses and carriages, now home to the luxury vehicles of some of the many celebrity owners.

Other popular roads include Lower Addison Gardens, Lansdowne Road, Clarendon Road, Melbury Road and Holland Villas Road, all with striking architectural heritage.”

Light and Bght Situated on a tree-lined street and flooded with natural light, this spacious apartment is arranged across the top two floors of a well-maintained and beautifully converted period property. A generous open plan living space offers a well-appointed kitchen and dining area, complete with its own west-facing roof terrace.

A master bedroom suite with its adjoining elegant en suite bathroom is one of three good sized bedrooms. There is also plenty of storage available, and a separate utility room is included. £1.695m / €2m / $2.22m Marsh & Parsons | t: +44 20 7605 6890 www.marshandparsons.co.uk

Andy Harris states, “This area is largely populated by wealthy families who prefer a more village feel. Holland Park is very well-positioned, and offers easy access to Central London and for those wanting to escape to the country and beyond.

I would say there is a fair split between international and domestic residents.” James Deans from Marsh & Parsons agrees, “Mostly here it’s international buyers who are resident abroad but looking for a London base. Quite a few are Italian and we also have good number of UK based buyers.”

So, what of the prices?

According to Andy Harris, “A one bedroom apartment can start from approximately £700,000 with larger three-bedroom apartments rising to between £3m and £4m. The more exclusive developments such as Holland Park Villas achieve in the region of £10m to £11m. Modest sized houses in the area start from

around £3m, while the larger villas achieve in excess of £20m.” Salvatore Raia summed up the desirability factor for young professional couples and families: “The lush green park at the heart of the area, the unique architecture, exceptional atmosphere and great transport links; all of which contribute to the draw for residents. The area’s culture and diversity add to the wonderful, village-like atmosphere, just minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Portobello Road and yet within striking distance of Central London’s Hyde Park, Mayfair and High Street Kensington.”

What of rental properties? James Deans told us that the rental market in this area is currently very strong, and said that in general prices in this area are on the rise… “We are seeing a lack of stock currently and demand is high.” According to James, “Prices are due to increase 5-10% this year alone”

On 18 March, after a three-year hiatus, around 26,800 international property professionals gathered in Cannes, France for this spectacular fourday exhibition, conference, networking event and awards ceremony.

Our very own International Property Award winners Jaspers-Eyers Architects, Ghelamco, and Varosliget Zrt were on show at the event, and they even displayed their International Property Award logos with immense pride. While not an International Property Award winner, Swiss manufacturer of luxury mechanical watches Audemars Piguet won a MIPIM 2022 Best Cultural and Sports Infrastructure award for its Musée Atelier Audemars Piguet project.

and forward-thinking at the heart of Audemars Piguet’s craftsmanship while honouring its deep-rooted origins in the Vallée de Joux. BIG’s high-concept spiral, seamlessly rising from the ground, offers a pristine setting for the masterpieces of technicity and design which have taken shape, year after year, in this remote valley of the Swiss Jura Mountains.

Today, the Musée Atelier Audemars Piguet offers a unique perspective of the Vallée de Joux and of the history of watchmaking – an ambitious architectural and museographical project made possible thanks to the creativity and collaboration of a host of experts, as well as numerous departments within Audemars Piguet.

Iconic development

Last but certainly not least, Varosliget Zrt’s Liget Budapest Project, which houses the House of Hungarian Music structure won the Five Star award for Public Service Architecture for the 2019-2020 European Property Awards.

The notable music structure also received the MIPIM 2022 Special Jury Award. Designed by Japanese star Sou Fujimoto, the project is a unique and complex institution of musical initiation and the venue for Hungary’s first comprehensive exhibition presenting the history of music, opened in the City Park in January 2022. Although Hungary is famed for its musical heritage, no multi-faceted exhibition presenting the history of Hungarian music in the context of European music had been hosted in any Hungarian institution exhibition before this one.

rb, created by German designer Maximilian Maertens, is the result of a collaboration between MB&F and Swiss clockmaker L’Epée 1839. This perfectly formed shiny sphere is comprised of four elytra (the technical word for a beetle’s protective wing covers) that not only open up, but can also swivel

to display Orb in a variety of different positions. Orb starts life as a solid block of aluminium which is then hollowed to create its perfect sphere. Powering this finely finished mechanical clock is a beautiful L’Epée movement with an eight-day power reserve. There are two barrels, one for the time and the other for an hour striking mechanism which indicates the actual hour, like a church clock.

Out of the blue The OttantaSei Tourbillon, designed in collaboration with Pininfarina, is proof of the two Houses’ alchemy, which allowed them to create and achieve the accuracy that characterises this exceptional timepiece.

A mechanical watch of this complexity would typically involve twice as many turns of the crown to wind; however, the exclusive winding system in the Ottantasei and its patented spherical differential halves this number. Consisting of four sapphire crystals that occupy the main surfaces, the finished case evokes the notion of aviation and the glass surrounding the cockpit of an aircraft or helicopter. Mechanically, equal importance was placed on three pillars – energy, time display, and the regulating organ, in this case, BOVET’s patented double-sided flying tourbillon – in order to achieve balance and symmetry.

IN THE RED Limited to only 10 pieces, the Chanel Boy.Friend Skeleton X-Ray Red design is a transparent watch thanks to its clear sapphire case. The rectangular case is modelled on the bottle cap of Chanel’s No. 9 perfume. At 37mm x 28.6mm, the sapphire is accented by 18k Beige Gold, Chanel’s proprietary gold alloy that’s a softer shade of yellow than normal. The crown and narrow frame around the crystal are Beige Gold, as is the folding clasp.

Its case is 18k Beige Gold, while the bezel is set with 38 baguette-cut rubies of about 1.96 carats. That continues on the crown, which is topped with five baguette-cut rubies, and also the folding clasp, which carries 23 more rubies. £124,699 / €147,844 / $163,270 Chanel www.chanel.com/gb

Pas spngs museum makeover As secret gardens go, the four acres surrounding the Albert Kahn museum just south of the Bois de Boulogne on the Ile-de-France take some beating. The museum, which houses the archives of the former banker, has re-opened and Japanese architect Kengo Kuma has married inside and outside space to make the most of the spectacular botanical settings.

Kahn, a Jewish immigrant, set out for Japan in 1909 with his chauffeur and photographer, Alfred Duterte, returning with many photographs. This prompted Kahn to begin a project to photograph "everywhere on the planet". He sent photographers to all corners of the earth and got back 72,000 colour photographs and 183,000 metres of film. These form the unique historical record of 50 countries, known as The Archives of the Planet. Kahn's project was never completed as he was ruined in the Great Depression following which his property and gardens were turned into a public estate.

Hans Veenhuijsen Managing Director Costa Del Sol 365

pain is an endlessly surprising destination. With its vast landscapes, stunning coastlines and pretty towns, the country offers countless opportunities for outdoor exploring. The nation’s rich history is evident in its awe-inspiring museums and the stunning architecture that represents its turbulent past.

How the country appeals to property investors is something that we are keen to know. Marc Pritchard, Director of Sales and Marketing at Taylor Wimpey España puts our queries to rest and states, “Spain appeals to property investors for multiple reasons. One is the strong level of demand for rental properties there. Spain is the world’s second most visited country, appealing to holidaymakers on many levels. Particularly relevant right now is its affordability.” Iain Tozer, Commercial Director of Real Estate at PGA Catalunya Golf and Wellness adds: “Spain has long been a favourite destination for property investors, and in spite of the turbulence during the financial crisis the net result for most investors has been positive.

Some of the more volatile markets are focused around some of the famous “Costas” and in recent times we have seen an increase in more stable areas such as Catalunya where we have found a dramatic increase of interest in our resort in the last years.”

Hans Veenhuijsen, Managing Director for Costa Del Sol 365 shares his sentiments: “Spain is an ideal place to invest due to its life quality and its high interest in tourism and leisure; in addition, it has the highest number of developments under construction due to its high demand and where there is the most available land to build on.”

In addition to the appeal of the country’s lower cost of living, Marc states, “Southern Spain delivers 300+ sunny days per year, with warm temperatures year-round. It has good flight and train connections and all the amenities that holidaymakers could wish for. Throw in outstanding gastronomy, beautiful beaches, world-class sports facilities – including some of the world’s most renowned golf courses – and lively night life, and you have the perfect combination.

“This means property investors have plenty of holidaymakers seeking to rent homes from them. There’s also the fact that increasing property prices in Spain mean investors have more chance of growing their capital there than they do by putting it in the bank right now.”

Golf properties in Spain are particularly alluring because of the “Stunning natural environment, as is how peaceful golf properties are,” says Marc. “There’s little as

relaxing as sitting on a spacious terrace, with views stretching across the open, green landscape all the way to the ocean, while the sun beats down.

“It’s almost a given that a golf property will come with some kind of special price or discount for the golf course and/or clubhouse. Anyone buying a property at La Cala Golf, for example, will receive a ‘privilege card’ that provides them with discounted golf, hotel bookings, beauty treatments in the on-site spa, sports lessons at La Cala Golf Academy and the resort’s three restaurants.

Aside from that, amenities vary.”

Here’s Iain Tozer with his insight: “The allure of golf for golfers is clear however we find that non-golfers are drawn to the beauty of the outside spaces, the manicured greens and expansive, unobstructed views are compelling. At PGA Catalunya where we can see so clearly the changing of the seasons as well as the mountains in the distance our residents constantly comment on the beauty that surrounds them.”

In terms of restaurants that potential property investors can enjoy, Iain admits that there are plenty. “Only 15 minutes from our resort we have options such as El Celler de Can Roca which has been named the world’s best restaurant several times and boasts 3 Michelin stars. Visitors enjoy the nearby town of Girona, more so now than ever before since it was used to film “The Red Keep” and just in one hour they can enjoy the city of Barcelona.”

Hans adds, “For restaurants we recommend NOBU, Messina and Nintai, among many others.”

“Prices in Spain are going up right now and this growth is expected to continue,” says Marc. “Rising construction costs and high national and international demand are all underpinning the rising prices. In the first quarter of 2022, prices shot up by an average of 2.3%, according to Tinsa.”

Barbados

B Kim Goddard Real Estate Development and Sales Director Apes Hill Barbados

arbados delivers decadent weather, lush vegetation, exotic wildlife and beautiful beaches. Culture in Barbados has been greatly influenced by the island’s colourful history, and visitors will be able to experience the vibrant island vibe through many activities.

Kim Goddard, Real Estate Developer and Sales Director, Apes Hill Barbados sums up the island’s appeal.

“One of the best ways to experience the beauty of Barbados’ west coast is to see it from the water. There are several operators that offer relaxing catamaran rides with lunch and snorkelling.

“Barbados is a fully immersive and diverse destination, with each of its 11 parishes possessing its own unique charm. The island has the most attractions per square mile in the Caribbean, many of which are concentrated in the easterly parishes, which feature botanical gardens, hiking and nature trails. The interior of the island is reminiscent of its hilly neighbouring islands and Harrison’s Cave in the parish of St. Thomas is the island’s premier attraction. In addition, there are National Trust properties across the island along with several museums, historic houses, churches and other built and natural heritage landmarks on and off the beaten path.

“The restaurants and beach bars in Barbados are also very good. Staggeringly beautiful top-notch restaurants perched on clifftops and at the water’s edge include, Quattro Passi, Tides and The Fish Pot on the west coast and Primo, Champers and Apsara on the south.

Beachfront shacks where the dress code is swimsuits and bare feet include La Cabane, Seashed and Surfside.

Superb views This 3,780 sq. ft. Grand Fairway Villa on Sea View Ridge at Apes Hill has a contemporary design and features four bedrooms. Light floods the property from every corner as the open plan kitchen merges with a large lounge area with double-height vaulted ceilings and high expansive windows. Outside the 36ft private infinity pool takes the eye towards beautiful unobstructed westerly sea views.

BARBADOS

“And let’s not forget about the beaches. We have more than 80 beaches, including many that are recognised as the most beautiful beaches in the world.

Some with pristine white sand and others with wild, rugged terrain- and several more in between – all beautiful in their own special way. There is also a busy calendar of events and sports fixtures from weekly fish festivals, to street carnivals, music festivals, horse racing, polo matches, sailing regattas, rally car races, cricket and surfing contests.”

Particularly for property investors, “There are quality of life and economic reasons that make Barbados an ideal place to invest,” says Kim. “Importantly, non-resident ownership is permitted, and properties can be owned out right.

For those investors that want to rent out their home they can also achieve good year-round rental income as the tourism market is strong.

“Investors can have confidence investing here as Barbados has a stable social and political environment, and it is the most developed country in the Eastern Caribbean. The people of Barbados are very warm, friendly, welleducated and welcoming. There is also a rich cultural heritage side to the island which is often referred to as “The Gem of The Caribbean Sea.” “Being 13 degrees off the equator means consistently great, year-round weather. What truly sets Barbados apart is its most easterly geographical location which puts it in direct line of the trade winds which blow off the Atlantic Ocean creating cooling conditions and some of the purest air to be found anywhere in the world.”

Barbados packs a punch, and its golf properties? “Most buyers like the resort lifestyle that comes with a golf property; the community atmosphere, access to a game they love, a natural environment and quiet surrounds – often with beautiful views of immaculate greens, well-kept fairways and intriguing topography and exotic landscape,” says Kim.

Bath

T

he word ‘bath’ is of course synonymous with water, and the World Heritage Site city of the same name, which sits in the valley of the River Avon in Somerset, has a long association with all things ablution.

A spa city since 60AD, Bath Abbey was founded in the 7th Century and, renowned for the restorative properties of the local waters, Bath became a popular spa town in the Georgian era. It was John Wood The Elder (1704-1754) at this time who devised much of the city’s iconic architecture and planning, thus making the place fashionable. However, Georgian era Bath stone properties are not all that is on offer here in terms of housing stock – as we discovered when we spoke to two very well-established local agents.

Philip Cobb is Managing Director of Cobb Farr, a Bath estate agency founded in 1989. He told us: “Today Bath is a major attraction because of its excellent selection of private and state schools. Families are now coming here from London, overseas or other parts of the UK.” Charles Everritt, Head of Residential Sales at Crisp Cowley, who have been a feature of Bath life for more than 135 years says: “It’s a wonderful place to live, people come to bring up families

Photo ©Visit Bath

with the amazing schools, but in equal number there are many who come to retire in this wonderful city with so much history and culture.

Most of Bath is very desirable in its own individual ways. Lansdown in general with Sion Hill, Lansdown Crescent and Somerset Place being amongst some very fine addresses.

On the south side Bathwick Hill with its majestic detached villas, Sydney Buildings with houses backing onto the canal and the lovely Darlington Place, is a darling road.”

So, what’s on offer here as far as property goes? “There is mix, people either look for classic Georgian or Regency houses, or for very modern more open plan spaces. Both offer different qualities of life,” says Charles Everritt. Philip Cobb told us what budget buyers need: “Budgets can range vastly in Bath and the

Bespoke Kitchen Housed under a natural sedum roof and close to Bath City Centre, this incredible five-bedroom property has been built using the finest ashlar stone. With a striking metal spiral staircase winding down to the garden level and spectacular expansive south facing country views, this amazing home is really breathtaking. The beautiful kitchen was hand built in Portugal and has been designed to a fine specification, with granite quartz worktops, Siemens appliances, two full height integrated fridges, wine cooler and a concealed butler’s kitchen and pantry.

The property has five stunning bedrooms, four with en suite facilities and beautiful built in wardrobes. £1.95m / €2.34m / $2.55m Cobb Farr | t: +44 1225 333 332 www.cobbfarr.com

surrounding areas with investment apartments of between £300,000 and £400,000, and family homes up to £2m. The most popular budget now is between £700,000-£1.2m. There has been a significant amount of new development in Bath and Bradfordon-Avon in recent years. We have dealt with some unique and individual developments with between two and eight properties on each. We have also recently had a large development of 45 properties built in the nearby village of Rode, all of which are now sold. We currently have some high value properties between £800,000£1.95m.” Both agents agree that the rental market in Bath is stronger than ever. Here’s Charles Everritt: “We find that often high value rental properties have competing parties trying to secure them. Just like the sales market there are certainly more buyers and tenants at present than there are properties available.” Philip Cobb added: “Rental demand has been partially fuelled by the fact that potential buyers cannot find suitable properties.” As for the future of the market here: “Property prices have risen quite significantly in the past two or three years, well over 20%.

Even recently they have risen by around 5% in the past six months. We feel that prices will begin to level out to some degree in the next 12 months as slightly higher interest rates have an impact.” With a popularity rating dating back almost 2000 years, 21st Century Bath continues to thrive and looks set to do so for many centuries to come.

Oxford

O

Lizanne Simmons Associate Director Penny & Sinclair

xford was founded in the 9th century when Alfred the Great created a network of fortified towns called burghs across his kingdom. Now, with its eclectic architecture, historic skyline, winding streets and picturesque landscapes, the bustling city of Oxford is a place where one can settle quite comfortably.

Oxford is also renowned across the world for its university, monastic institutions and buildings dedicated to the pursuit of higher thought.

St George’s Tower, Christ Church Cathedral, Church of St Mary the Virgin, Divinity School, Sheldonian Theatre, Radcliffe Camera, Radcliffe Observatory and Ashmolean Museum are fine examples of architecture across the centuries.

Oxford’s iconic architecture can also be seen on the big screen. Think Harry Potter, Transformers, X-Men, Skyfall and many more. Last but not least the town is known for its literary giants, including J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis and Lewis Carroll. It is no wonder that many people far and wide take every opportunity to visit this beautiful city, and sometimes, make it a permanent location to settle and start a family.

Lizanne Simmons, Associate Director, Penny & Sinclair adds to the discussion of what makes Oxford simply alluring. “As a location a high number of properties are bought by families who simply grew up here or went to school here and when they start families of their own and consider schooling, they return to North Oxford. The biggest attraction to the area is the highly regarded schools; other factors are the University, the hospitals and the access into London for commuting, with a further station just north of Summertown. Oxford Parkway station offers a service to London Marylebone in under one hour.”

Simply Spaous A three-bedroom home retaining many period features and within walking distance of Summertown. Built in 1879 for Charles Ingle, the schoolmaster, and his family, The School House retains many original features including gothic arched front door, tiled hall, and ornate fireplaces. The spacious kitchen/dining area features a contemporary Bulthaup kitchen that includes a breakfast bar, underfloor heating and sliding doors leading out to the courtyard garden. There are two ground-floor reception rooms, while stairs lead up from the hall to the first floor which includes: three spacious double bedrooms, family bathroom and shower room. £975,000 / €1.2m / $1.3m Penny & Sinclair | e: sales@pennyandsinclair.co.uk www.pennyandsinclair.co.uk

“Areas such as Summertown moving south towards Oxford city centre including Central North Oxford, Park Town and Norham Gardens offer some of Oxford’s most prestigious and stunning properties,” says Lizanne. “North Oxford, a predominantly residential area spanning from St. Giles Church just north of the city centre moving up to Banbury and Woodstock Road are also hotspots.”

What of the history of the town?

Lizanne comments, “Most of the land that was developed into the now sought-after city of Oxford was originally owned by St. John’s college.

There are a number of buildings throughout the area owned by the Oxford colleges and you will also see blue plaques on a number of properties commemorating a link between a famous person or event, serving as a historical marker.

“The houses were built in the 19th century and comprise mainly of detached and semi-detached villas, set within generous and now extremely sought-after gardens and grounds.

The side roads within Jericho and Summertown were developed later in the 19th Century and beyond, many designed as workers’ cottages and smaller terraced premises.”

In terms of the future prospects of this attractive area, Lizanne mentions that, “A huge proportion of Oxford sits in a conservation area and a number of listed buildings which have ensure the period charm and historic beauty of the area has been preserved. There has also been a large amount of development and the council have also put strict rules and restrictions on their permissions to ensure that the area doesn’t get over developed. Prices have continued to climb and with links to London improved with the new Oxford Parkway and a stronger trend to now work from home following the pandemic, we have seen a further rise in demand for family homes in the area. Whilst demand is outstripping supply we will continue to see very strong prices within the area.”

Victoan Home This beautifully renovated semi-detached house, built in 1880, is located in one of Oxford's most desirable residential side road: Norham Road.

The house has undergone a complete renovation resulting in a stunning family home with a stylish and contemporary interior whilst retaining the original character and period features. The home includes an open plan kitchen/dining/ £4.25m / €5.1m / $5.6m

Sandbanks

A Philippa Sole CEO and Founder Philippa Sole

t one time, a little more than 100 or so years ago, Sandbanks in Dorset was simply a collection of deserted sand dunes.

An 1870’s visitor for example would only have noticed the lifeboat station breaking the horizon. Then, in 1880, a hotel appeared and later still, the first simple wooden houses, followed by a road, and eventually what we see today: an area transformed by the latest architectural designs and musthave addresses. What was a simple spit of land and sand is now home to some of the UK’s most exclusive properties boasting glistening balconies, breathtaking sea views and plenty of immaculate glass that, even as far back as 2015, were said to be worth a combined £933m.

Award-winning agent Philippa Sole has specialised in this area since 1999 – “Sandbanks is a peninsula spanning the width of the world’s second largest natural harbour. Every evening, the sun sets across the bay with calm water one side and open sea on the other. Aside from

the plethora of outdoor and local activities available year-round, Sandbanks has excellent links to all major airports and the city of London is a two-hour train ride away. Houses positioned on the water’s edge can simply take their order from one of the fine nearby restaurants, run their yachts from private jetties and make a long weekend on the south coast feel as special as a break away in the French Riviera; as such it has attracted aspirational people who enjoy the finer elements of life and with less of a demand on city workers needing to be present in the office over the last couple of years, we have seen an even greater rise in people relocating from all over the UK to enjoy this special stretch of coastline.

“Sandbanks was made famous thirty years ago when Dorset’s best kept secret was let out of the bag and a number of celebrities purchased homes in the area. Today, there is a healthy mix of second home owners and permanent residents which maintains the community and local feel, alongside longstanding annual events which draw new people to the area, including the Bournemouth air festival and Sand Polo.

The long white sandy beaches and

horizon across the sea creates an air of expanding possibilities. Cyclists and walkers alike make the most of the chain ferry which opens the door to the Purbecks, whilst the New Forest is within easy reach for country walks.

“Water sports enthusiasts are drawn to the area due to its many sailing clubs and marinas and the Championship golf course at Parkstone is a big draw for golfers.

With a choice of excellent state and independent schools, many families have chosen to settle here. You don’t grow old in Sandbanks, you simply grow more in love with what it has to offer. Two thirds of the peninsula is dedicated to striking luxurious family homes offering direct water frontage which have put Sandbanks on the map for being one of the most exclusive and prestigious post codes in the world. Banks Road features an assortment of contemporary apartments and houses offering direct beach access while the centre of Sandbanks features an array of apartments, bungalows, and houses with prices starting from £500,000.

All of the properties on the peninsula are no more than a five-minute walk to the beach in any direction.”

L This is a residential project located on the east bank of Zijiang River, designed by ALK Design studio. Integrating the local famous landscape-Meishan characteristic, the project was created by the concept of ‘landscape terraces’. The architectural form was shaped by modern design language with clean lines and neat shapes, just like urban sculptures. We also incorporated the concept of ‘fourth-generation residences’, so that each household has an outdoor leisure space with an independent garden. The double-height gardens with stacking forms are staggered to build an open oxygen bar, which is full of changes and rhythm, and the layered balconies mimic terraced fields (famous in the local landscape).

The Saudi interior designer NOURA ALKHENAINI was after a sleek, contemporary luxurious residential piece of art. The light colours with a hint of maroon, and the detailed long curtains heighten the space’s expanse. Both the creatively placed molding and the customised abstract masterpiece were the perfect backdrops of this polished space, while the sophisticated crystal chandeliers and the marble tables create a sense of luxury, as does the wool and silk carpet.

BARFOOT & THOMPSON 34 Shortland Street, Auckland City Auckland 1010 , New Zealand

  T  founded by Val Barfoot in 1923 after he bought a tiny, run-down Newmarket land agency.

The company at the time was named V. Barfoot Land Agent until Val Barfoot’s older brother Kelland joined a year later, and the name changed to Barfoot Bros. In 1926, Val’s wife Christine Barfoot was the first person in the company and the first woman in New Zealand to pass the real estate exam. In 1934, they were joined by Maurice Thompson, and in 1940 the business became Barfoot & Thompson, as it is known today.

From modest beginnings, Barfoot & Thompson has grown from strength to strength. By 1975, the company’s lettings agency had 26 branches and by 1979, they had over 1,600 landlords, with over 3,000 tenants. The company remains family-owned with Directors Kiri and Stephen Barfoot and

Managing Director Peter Thompson, all direct descendants of the original founders, at the helm.

Today, with over 75 branches and over 2,400 staff, the company is a high-performing real estate company specialising in the Auckland and Northland property markets of New Zealand. In alignment with its family-oriented structure and values, Barfoot & Thompson donates generously to community initiatives, family friendly events and many charities.

Barfoot & Thompson’s primary focus is on the Auckland and Northland property markets.

Auckland is New Zealand’s largest urban area and most populated city with over 1.5million residents – around a third of New Zealand’s population. Focusing on one geographic location ensures that the company knows the Auckland property market better than any other New Zealand real estate company.

BARFOOT & THOMPSON 34 Shortland Street, Auckland City Auckland 1010 , New Zealand

Having been in business for over 95 years, Barfoot & Thompson is an iconic, trusted and highly-visible brand in Auckland.

Their independent consumer research has demonstrated that Barfoot & Thompson continues to be the top real estate company in Auckland through their provision of a wide range of residential, rural, property management, commercial, body corporate and special project services.

Despite its longevity, Barfoot & Thompson is ready to embrace innovation, and is committed to developing, enhancing and investing in new technologies. Their website is second to none, and each of the branches is resourced by a dedicated central support centre. Through consistent marketing, the public’s awareness of the brand has built to such an extent that Barfoot & Thompson has the highest brand awareness of any real estate

agency in the market. The Epsom branch is a shining example. Opened in 1993, the branch is currently their number one. With a local market share of 60%, commitment to excellence and highly tuned local knowledge; ‘listening, and then listening again’ is their motto. In terms of lettings, the Glenfield branch provides landlords with a complete property management solution and tenants with 24/7 support. It has won many accolades from clients and produced consistently good results over recent months.

Barfoot & Thompson also provides an excellent place for staff to work. Many of the staff across the company have been with the company for over 20 years. This is tangible testimony to their outstanding work environment and unparalleled staff benefits which include competitive remuneration packages with frequent pay raises.

 L R lies on one of the highest plots in the estate of Real de La Quinta, and is surrounded by nature. Views from the plot to the Mediterranean Sea, the Rock of Gibraltar and the African coastline are exceptional. It was of utmost importance for the client that each villa would enjoy uninterrupted sea views, not only from their terrace but also from the main living areas.

All of the 18 detached villas have private pools and gardens, with plot sizes ranging from 1,107m² right up to 10,005m². Inside built areas range from 535m² to 1,282m². The client wanted each villa to have not only visual privacy but audio privacy. Essentially, the villas had to be designed in such a way that owners were completely oblivious to their neighbour. The

design of each home and the development as a whole had to be integrated into the landscape, almost camouflaged, so the villas nestle into the mountain rather than sit on top of it.

The design of the villas reduces negative impacts on the environment by limiting the consumption of non-renewable resources, minimising waste, avoiding environmental toxins, and using materials and resources in a responsible manner. The foundations and structure of the buildings are made of reinforced concrete, complying with building regulations and the quality recommendations of the geotechnical study. Roofs have walking access and terraces are finished in non-slip porcelain paving, with large-format pieces. All roofs will have high-quality thermal insulation.

External walls will be made of six-inch-thick

perforated brick masonry, rendered to 1.5cms on the inside and 2-3cm on the outside.

Each home displays a level of innovation and creativity rarely found in residential developments. The client also wanted beautiful private pools. The result of this has been infinity pools where the water flows over one or more edges, producing a striking visual effect. The owner’s view from the lounge and terrace are of their pool and the sea beyond, with nothing in between. All villas have large basements that can be customised to owners’ individual needs, whether they be a games room with sports bar and golf simulator, a spa and gymnasium, a library, office space, or more bedrooms. Some of the villas have parking on the basement level, while others have covered carports.

The whole project brings top quality design to a breathtaking setting. It creates not only beautiful buildings and luxury holiday homes, but exceptional places for living that create emotional connections and which draw owners back again and again.

There is nowhere else on the Costa del Sol like Real de La Quinta, where nature and the modern world coexist in perfect harmony. Rick Volpe, architect and design consultant for the project, sums it up perfectly: “A high-quality resort that’s sustainable for the environment, completely integrated with nature, and that transmits the lively and positive side of Marbella, alongside the innovative and practical ‘smart living’ philosophy of Northern European countries.”

Currently the company has seven major projects in Russia, primarily office buildings, shopping malls and logistics parks. PPF Real Estate Russia invested €550m in the development of its flagship project Comcity.

Located in a new, ecologically clean part of Moscow, Comcity is now one of the world’s largest mixed use developments. From what was an empty 45 hectare plot of land, a brand new urban community has emerged. Designed to be a self-sufficient city within a city, Comcity provides an ideal location in which to live and work, in a metropolis surrounded by nature. It includes offices, a light filled underground shopping gallery, international hotel, residential quarter, school, kindergarten

and extensive landscaped parkland, forested areas and waterways. This project, which began in 2015 and is being built in stages, provides superbly designed interiors and well developed infrastructure.

The Office Park development is focused on creating 17,000 workplaces based in architecture which complements its natural surroundings, while at the same time displaying its own personality. Meanwhile the Comcity residential complex, homecity, is formed of five low-rise buildings; a design which offers not only an ideal living environment, but also impacts less on the land, the light available and the surrounding noise levels. The Novotel Hotel was built under stringent Accor Group guidelines and provides essential conferencing and business delegate accommodation, all conveniently situated within a short distance of international and local transport links.

Photorealistic visualisation of real estate projects are fuelling the increasing demand of the market. This increasing internal project volume and the international demand for renders, movies, 360-degree and VR environments both played into the company’s decision to set up a dedicated ArchViz division.

With all these skills under their belt, the BP Office Agora project was designed to go beyond an average workplace and become an inspiring lifestyle hub. Creating a flexible work environment was a very important step in the design process. For this reason, innovative technologies and features were incorporated to further enhance the user experience and sustainable office operation.

In terms of furnishing, DVM introduced contemporary pieces and timeless vintage seating. Subtle injections of a variation of BP colour tones united the different styles into a harmonious look for the space. The use of repurposed vintage furniture further enhanced sustainable elements in the design of the space.

 S. R C hotel is part of a 197,000m² mixed-use development on a prime site along the banks of the Nile River just north of downtown Cairo, Egypt. The development, known as the Nile Corniche project, also includes luxury residential condominiums, street-level retail, commercial office space, and below grade parking. The complex is designed as two towers connected by a podium and underground parking. Tower 1 contains the residences and offices, and Tower 2, the hotel.

The hotel’s L-shaped tower is organised as an eight-level podium that contains the hotel’s public functions, with guest rooms and serviced apartments above. A double-height elliptical pavilion pulled forward from the face of the building is the centrepiece of the facade and contains the entrance to the banquet hall.

Throughout the interiors, the design team created experiences for sophisticated

travellers who cherish adventures unique to the places they visit, places that resonate with history, culture, and the environment, while meeting modern expectations. This view was echoed by the hotel operator Marriott International and the developer Qatari Diar.

Interior finishes and materials reflect the quiet luxury of St. Regis adapted to the Egyptian context. Guests encounter references to vegetation that grows along the banks of the Nile, executed in custom wallcovering with pearlised or gilt finishes and in glass tile mosaic murals reflecting regional craft traditions.

Other local craft techniques using blown glass and punched metal are delightfully discovered in light fixtures and screens.

Despite references to heritage, the interior design retains a contemporary flair, reinterpreting the past for the modern day but not recreating it.

David Scott Interiors

  between David Scott Interiors and Rusk, Inc. resulted in a stunning project: “Enfilade of Beauty”. Inspired by the 18th century French decorator, Jean-Baptiste Glomy, Scott designed brilliant gold Verre églomisé panels between a dramatic espresso ceiling and a beautifully veined floor with brass inlays. A series of two broad thresholds frame an enfilade of spaces leading to the living room.

The apartment had too many bedrooms for an empty nester couple. While the original apartment had five bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms, one bedroom and two bathrooms were turned into large walk-in closets to create a grander master suite. The primary bedroom showcases beautiful city views while

at night, dark and silvery hues enable a restful night’s sleep.

The entrance hall in the property was lacklustre, and the skilful use of back-painted glass transformed the area into a radiant oasis, rivalling the other rooms in the home.

The formal dining room was transformed into an intimate library with deep purples, browns and blues creating a warm and intimate space for reflection.

The dining area was moved into the enormous loft-like living room with a piano for entertainment. The walls are enveloped by millwork and stone, while the bland walls of the living room were painted in grey taupe and silvery blues. The details and textures create visual excitement and interest; balancing the wall of windows and their ever-changing light show.

Downtown Manhattan Residence

In TriBeCa, the Downtown Manhattan Residence project by Drake/Anderson and Rusk, Inc. began by combining two apartments to create one 7,300 sq. ft. full-floor unit with endless 360-degree views of Manhattan. Drake/ Anderson designed all aspects of interior design and construction including a new kitchen, seven bathrooms, a wine room, and complex architectural details throughout.

Dynamic ceiling curves draw the eye through both axes of the apartment: north to south and east to west, to the endless views of the Hudson River and beyond. Spectacular bronze dust plastered columns anchor the east great room while cleverly concealing building risers. Venetian plastered walls and structural columns create a subtle reflective surface to the remarkable apartment.

Bronze rods hold the wine collection, and a side-by side partner’s desk, with lounge chairs and footstools, ensures that the office is perfect for close business and personal activities. A custom metallic hood and Cristallo quartzite counters add interest in the kitchen, while the café area is equipped with a programmable barista machine.

The powder room uses Venetian plaster to create visual interest, while the master bedroom features a custom foot and headboard, to maintain a sophisticated environment. A relaxed sculptural lounge chair takes pride of place in the lounge area along with an inviting chaise sofa, and a playful sense of colour and form welcomes visitors into the two guest rooms. By placing the right materials in appropriate places, a stylish and modern environment was achieved.

Occupying the whole of the 50th floor, The Extraordinary Penthouse is located in the Residence @ Mandarin Oriental. The owners wanted the apartment’s three en-suite bedrooms, newly created massage room, library, grand hall, kitchen and wine cellars, to appear contemporary yet classic, filled with the latest technology. The resulting theme, with its imported Italian furniture, marble flooring and amazing chandelier installations, is designed to optimise the flexibility of the space. Concealed pocket doors, a hidden bookshelf entrance, and

discreet yet beautiful moveable screens, offer the ultimate in well-appointed flexible living.

Established in 1977, and located in Samut Prakan, Samrong General Hospital is historic and prestigious. Along with new medical equipment, all patient rooms are also on the list to be upgraded. Interior design for healthcare requires a balance of three major factors: durability and the sanitary property of materials; aesthetics combined with ergonomics; and finally and most significantly budget. The resulting project on Ward No. 4 has seen a lighting and ceiling design developed to meet patient and staff requirements. Natural pattern wallpaper has been applied to create a relaxed atmosphere, and stylish and incredibly hygienic and functional headboards have been installed to meet patient and medical needs.

 A   for the renovation of the Technopolis Auditorium inside the cylindrical historic gasholder building at the Technopolis City of Athens in Greece.

The historic metallic gasholder, 30m in diameter, was built around 1862 with a capacity of 7,000m³ for the Gas Company of Athens.

The company terminated its function in 1984 and since then the building has become a historical industrial monument.

The gas holder structure was rebuilt and started to function in 1999 as a multi-purpose space, including a centre for contemporary music and the inauguration of the Technopolis.

The Technopolis Auditorium, being housed in an industrial shell of the historical gasholder, created the conditions for the development of

2021-2022

a strong concept. This was the starting point of the design idea, which evolved through all different scales of the project. Currently, the building consists of two floors above ground and two basement levels, with the auditorium located on the ground and first floor.

The clients requested a redesign and upgrade of the auditorium’s interior including reimagining the architectural aesthetics, creating more space, and upgrading equipment to turn it into a cultural phenomenon set to host a range of events each year. A challenge to overcome was the adaptation of the existing concrete shell – its shape created an obstacle for passive acoustics. The seven existing large-scale concrete structural pillars were therefore creatively camouflaged in order to resolve the problem.

The roof enhances the acoustics through the use of geometric sound-reflectors and sound absorbers, along with oak surfaces that form pyramid clusters. 564 uniquely customised pieces make up the clusters, providing a unique acoustic experience for spectators.

The design and fabrication of the acoustic panels, produced and approved in Greece, challenged the relationship between architecture, engineering and construction.

Through advanced design, sound calculus and construction technology, as well as algorithmic processes, the company focused on integrating all these elements to create a seamless audiovisual design.

Ahylo architects also rearranged the staircase in the auditorium to give spectators the ability to move around comfortably. The

significant rise of the stage ensures optimal visual and acoustic comfort, whilst natural oak flooring, black carpets and seats were introduced to create an eye-catching design.

Around the core of the amphitheatre, two new discrete foyers were designed.

A characteristic feature was the creation of vertical glazed holes between the foyer and the theatre. This subtle architectural manoeuvre indicates the ability to perceive spaces holistically.

Conceptually the auditorium was conceived as a place of creation, to offer cultural experiences. The space enables human experiences like no other, whilst creating a venue that will never be forgotten. The architectural design evokes a host of emotions including excitement and tranquillity.

 D E has been instrumental in the creation of Chelsea Barracks, a 12.8-acre mixeduse residential development dedicated to seven contemporary Belgravia garden squares, creating permeable public green space and walkways throughout the site.

Set across six phases in total, Phases 1-3 are completed, with Phase 4 set to launch in 2022. Residences include a range of apartments, duplexes, penthouses and townhouses. With sustainability at the heart of the company’s vision, every detail at Chelsea Barracks works to support it, from the 40% of the site that is dedicated to garden squares to the materials sourced to construct the buildings.

Inspired by the evolution of London’s Great Estates and the formal Georgian squares of Belgravia, the gardens were designed first, highlighting historic views through the site, with the buildings positioned in the spaces between.

The three buildings of Phase 1 provide fully-accessible and inclusive spaces at every level, with generous daylight levels and connections to the outside through substantial windows and balconies, in addition to terraces at penthouse level. The buildings share a twostorey basement including a car park and spa located on the lower level. The townhouses in Phase 2 also share this level of accessibility.

A reimagination of the traditional Belgravia townhouse, each home spans 8-10 metres in width. The basements of every home are equipped with a swimming pool and private amenity offering as well as access to the shared facilities.

Overall, Chelsea Barracks offers a sustainable mix of community uses and landscaped public realm to create a place which feels like a natural part of London’s evolution, rooted in its history but with its feet firmly in the future.

This demanded a large capacity kitchen with top-grade appliances and technology that offers special features and superior operation.

The design was fuelled by the well-travelled clients’ desire to bring their travel experiences home. Their extensive travelling exposed them to many ethnic dishes, while the lady of the house’s culinary prowess brought the flavours of their travels home.

The original layout of the home was beset by space issues. The refrigerator was near to the entrance of the room which constricted the flow when it was in use. The centres of

the two islands were not lined up with the centre of the range creating a skewed line of sight. The revisions included separate stations for refrigeration, preparation and cooking, plus a guest area with dining table to provide an environment capable of producing highvolume complicated meals with safety and efficiency in mind.

All the materials were chosen to create a subtle colour palette, allowing the quality and textures of the selections to influence the design directive. The greige Porcelanosa floor tile is a perfect backdrop for the impressive flowing Aurora Blue quartzite stone countertops.

Striking veins cascade down waterfall edges of the double islands. The secondary perimeter stone delivers a slight shimmer to add charisma.

The cabinet material, manufactured by SALT International was chosen for its extreme durability and colour assortments.

This extensive urban concept development can be found in Gauteng, the economic hub of South Africa.

Situated on a 2,200-hectare tract of land, Waterfall is extraordinary in the sense that, as a ‘greenfield’ development, unaffected by the constraints of older developments and existing infrastructure, it has allowed developers and planners to create a new city from a blank slate, utilising the latest urban design principles for infrastructure, services, open public spaces and the buildings themselves.

2021-2022

Offering integrated stay-work-shop-play environments that are secure, ecologically sensitive, conveniently located and easily accessible, Waterfall provides unsurpassed quality of life in a vibrant urban setting.

As a world-class mixed-use development and a true lifestyle and blue-chip business destination, it features everything expected from a lively modern city: 10 secure residential developments including two retirement villages, three private schools, a teachers’ college and a hospital, four hotels and South Africa’s only heliport.

The development also includes extensive commercial and office parks, vast green spaces and high-tech fitness centres, a range of dining and entertainment options and inspiring shopping destinations like the iconic Mall of Africa – the largest mall on the continent to be built in a single phase. All this, along with a state-of-the-art fibre optic and wireless communication network, as well as on-site

alternative energy provision, make Waterfall a one-of-a-kind mixed-use development.

Waterfall strives to promote an integrated, eco-friendly environment. At the epicentre of this energised precinct, the 130,000m² superregional Mall of Africa is a beacon celebrating connected living. The mall’s award-winning architectural form is inspired by the geological beauty of Africa. It reflects this splendour using wood, stone, glass, concrete and other natural materials. An interior example here is the glass roof and light wood used to create ‘trees’ in the centre court of the mall, which takes its inspiration from the forests of central Africa.

The layout of the mall is unique in that it comprises both straight and curved walls with high shopfronts and an abundance of natural light. The main court areas are accentuated with their own identity and this, in combination with the racetrack layout, makes it easy for the shopper to navigate. The central spine is a key area of the design in that it links

various offerings to provide a seamless retail experience with an incredible, dramatically large, environmentally friendly roof covering.

Many of the Waterfall City tenants have taken a stance on sustainability and environmental sensitivity, like international business brand Deloitte. Their impressive 42,500m² South African head office was awarded a Silver LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) rating in April 2021. This smart building’s energy performance is optimised with solar panels, renewable back-up power, and enhanced ventilation to reduce electricity usage from air-conditioners.

Other features include blinds that track the sun, rainwater harvesting and storage, indigenous landscaping, and a bottling plant in the basement of the building to provide glassbottled water as an alternative to plastic bottles.

Without a doubt, Waterfall is a truly trailblazing city, setting new standards in property development.

The company’s impressive portfolio includes numerous award-winning projects including Black Tap and Dubai Technology Entrepreneur Campus (DTEC). A four-floor standalone building operating as an existing business centre, the operator’s brief was to create a stimulating office environment, challenging the typical corporate design.

Embracing the building’s industrial origins, raw, original elements were incorporated throughout. A custom designed exposed skeletal reception desk greets visitors and a striking green wall showcases the brand.

A trendy, contemporary café provides both a public socialising space and a creative working area away from the office.

Collaborating areas feature a Majlis with in-

built storage lockers and seating pause points, whilst a large auditorium with tiered seating and acoustic curtains provides flexibility to transform the space. Beautiful exposed ceilings were expertly included, while acoustic felt-lined linear patterns were painted in the brand’s colours and inserted in a juxtaposed fashion, with elements of natural timber shining through.

A biophilic design approach leans on the amazing vista and a running track completes the outdoor theme. A relaxation area offers sleeping pods and a chance to rejuvenate. A contemporary corporate design is merged with playful elements; a meeting area transforms into a lively table tennis game, the slide on the upper floor provides entrance through a ball pit and custom phone booths allow privacy in the open plan space.

based in Soho, New York. Soho in the ’80s and ’90s was one of squeegee men and subway tags and working artists in spattered studios.

Therefore, Broadway Interiors created the same atmosphere for Black Tap in Dubai, keeping that timeless NYC vibe alive. The client wanted to retain the casual street food concept, but upscale and embellish it into a brand with prominence, profile and recognition.

Upon entering, one is transported to the hustle and bustle of daily life on the streets of New York, with individuality and cultural nuances represented in all areas across the restaurant. The landscape of Brooklyn is symbolised in the industrial open ceilings and polished concrete floor, underpinned with a revival architectural black and white herringbone interlocking floor.

The monochromatic approach of some of New York’s iconic buildings is developed

through the use of block colours: the bar area being primarily black brick, the columns clad in white ceramic tiles with only a protective corner black accent, retaining an overall neutral palette, portraying the darker, moodier side of the city. This is then softened by timber tones in a mellow brown hue through the inclusion of the furniture and parquet flooring.

To brighten the space, linear LED lighting was strategically placed above the bar and standing area, taking its inspiration from the traffic light and street intersections, common in the Downtown area of NYC. Bespoke graffiti, specifically designed for use across the Black Tap brand franchise, was developed using chalkboards, adding originality and the richness of the urban vibe, in stark contrast to the monochrome palate. The result is a sophisticated venue, achieved through engineered detailing and ingenious design.

Since the company’s inception in 2011, Millimetre Design Sdn Bhd has been striving to provide exceptional interior design services with a focus on refined quality and delivering the perfect balance of form and function. Based in Kuala Lumpur, this consultancy and build firm is no stranger to the industry. Their expertise in interior design, project management, and contract solutions, coupled with sterling standards and innovative ideas, have amassed a substantial and impressive clientele in a large array of projects, including those in residential, commercial, corporate, and hospitality.

Under the guidance of Alan Fong (Design Principal & Director) and Vienna Chew (Design Director), Millimetre Design Sdn Bhd has become a powerhouse, providing designs

that infuse innovation, culture, form and function, which exceed the expectations of projects awarded to them. Two such projects include the Gamuda Gardens Sales Gallery and Twentyfive.7 Sales Gallery, where Millimetre Design Sdn Bhd has managed to combine more than just design with functionality, where each interior space is unique in its own right.

with lush frondescence into its structure.

The result embodies flowing lines in the reception area that mimic the surface movement of water, accompanied by walls with wooden textural elements and tropical greenery that breathe the entire area to life. Included in the design is a forest-themed ‘experium’ dark room, an exhibition space containing three-dimensional maps and models, a sunset lounge and discussion area, a premium lounge, a forest-themed kids play area, a luxurious multi-purpose hall, as well as well-appointed back offices.

The Twentyfive.7 mixed-use development represents the epitome of luxury that is wellcentred around community living, where its vibrancy is strategically aimed towards a younger audience, and where the lines between work and leisure are intentionally blurred. As such, the concept for the Twentyfive.7 Sales Gallery is inspired by the

prism form, representing the three points – residence, community, and the developer – coming together to showcase community living worth having. These triangular concepts, interpreted by deconstructivism, string art, and non-rectilinear shapes, have resulted in a design that is assured, geometric, and polished. These qualities in the design allowed the space to translate notions of youth, vigour, and hospitality the moment prospects step into the space.

These two projects – amongst many others – have allowed Millimetre Design Sdn Bhd to separate themselves from the norm by developing a unique methodology of utilising design to curate meaningful experiences.

As such, it comes as no surprise that Millimetre Design Sdn Bhd managed to snag four awards as well as one nomination at the International Property Awards for Interior Design for 2021-2022.

Otto Uno is the company’s social housing residential building project, located in one of the main avenues of Punta del Este, Uruguay. The area is a fusion of beach and city landscapes – the perfect combination of natural and urban environments.

Sustainability is a major aspect of the project, and the incorporation of greenery was one element that was put forward by the client.

Therefore it was really important for Guevara Ottonello Architects to include biophilic architectural design.

Featuring 36 apartments, Otto Uno is an eight-storey condominium building, with six floors of apartments, a ground floor that houses a lobby and parking area, and a rooftop terrace that hosts a variety of amenities. The development includes one-, two- and threebedroom apartments, and they all have their own green area, with geometrical pots that house native plants and trees. The rooftop terrace is where residents can enjoy nature, as well as several amenities, such as a swimming pool with a solarium, a recreation lounge area suitable for private events, a fitness centre and several vegetable gardens.

Overall, the simplicity of the design, along with its functionality, affordability, elegance and biophilic elements were all blended effectively to define Otto Uno.

The design aims to bring a coherent character and identity to the city centre that links important landmarks as well as creating a unique urban experience for city dwellers. Several strategies are used to accomplish this starting with creating a new transportation masterplan that will de-load the current road network and encourage visitors and occupants to use public transport or walk to their destinations. The scheme identified specific areas where there could be additional attractions including new micro parks or locations for public gatherings such as cafés.

The Corniche Beautification Project is the main artery that connects Hamad Airport to

The development consists of two major elements including the introduction of a cycleway link that would connect the airport road cycleway to the proposed cycleway in West Bay North. Secondly, the introduction of pedestrian underpasses and sunken plazas that will cross the Corniche Road linking the seaside to the city side. The underpasses are strategically placed to connect and activate major destinations and hubs such as the Doha Metro and the Al Bidda Park underground carparks. A fusion of architecture and design, both beautification projects will create one-ofa-kind experiences.

Sa’ada Waterfront is a development nestled within an attractive landscape. Its integration with the water, communal amenities, articulated pedestrian network, and open spaces make it an ideal family destination. Comprehensively planned, the project’s inspired architecture is integrated with infrastructure and marine requirements, complemented by innovative landscaping. This collectively creates a development where originality and efficiency are naturally synchronised.

destination with retail, dining, and entertainment options aimed at attracting locals and tourists. It presents a unique opportunity for retailers, who will benefit from this historically significant yet modern setting.

Salmaniya Medical Complex, the largest tier3 hospital in the Kingdom of Bahrain, provides secondary, tertiary, and emergency healthcare services, as well as specialised outpatient clinics for the public. Over the years, one of the biggest challenges for doctors, patients, and visitors has been the lack of parking spaces, leading to massive congestion in the area. Therefore, the Salmaniya Carpark Development was designed to address these issues. The development was carefully crafted to enhance the fabric of the area, which is a hub for commercial activity with many supermarkets, stores, and hotels in the vicinity. It also has many residential buildings, making it one of the busiest areas in the Kingdom of Bahrain.

Nanjing Bay Art Centre is situated in Jiangsu Province, close to Yuzui Wetland Park.

The project is based on the Metropolitan Museum of Contemporary Art in New York, blending contemporary style with pure modern techniques.

The lounge on the first floor features beautiful furnishings such as Cassina sofas, two single sofas, a solid-block coffee table and a leather double sofa. Feminine lighting is also used throughout to create a soft and flawless

Headquartered northeast of capital Doha on the coast of the Arabian Gulf, Qatari Diar was entrusted to support Qatar’s growing economy and to coordinate the country’s real estate development priorities.

The St. Regis Cairo hotel project is part of a 197,000 square metre mixed-use development on a prime site along the banks of the Nile River just north of downtown Cairo, Egypt. It is a five-star, full service luxury hotel with 286 guestrooms and suites, 98 serviced apartments and luxury condominiums.

Hotel guests and future residents will experience luxury from the moment they arrive. Exceptional materials and detailing create a first impression on the exterior and

carry through the entire interior, down to the furnishings and fixtures. The design team focused on creating a guest experience unlike any other in the world; think a water garden, bright artwork and an Asian restaurant that transports guests to another world.

The entire development on which the hotel sits is known as the Nile Corniche project. The development consists of two towers, connected by four levels of underground parking for 654 cars and an eight-level podium.

Tower 1, with 36 stories above grade, contains three levels of offices at the base, 30 levels and 103 units of luxury condominiums, and a four-storey reserve penthouse. Tower 2 is reserved largely for the L-shaped hotel, and contains 35 stories above grade. Setting a new paradigm in mixed-used experiences, the Nile Corniche Project is one where luxury and comfort coincide.

Fracthon engaged architectural firm ABP Autorskie Biuro Projektowe for the rejuvenation of Browar Kleparz – a former brewery in the Old Town of Krakow, Poland.

This building has its own fascinating history as it previously functioned as the Krakow’s branch of Archduke Habsburg’s brewery.

Fracthon’s ultimate objective was to reinstate the brewery’s historic architecture and create a development to house 97 apartments and 18 commercial units.

To offer residents more than just a home, Fracthon also required the architectural design to allow for onsite amenities. These include a cinema, gym, children’s playroom and a relaxation area.

Last but not least, Fracthon wanted to encourage residents to live a healthy and eco-friendly lifestyle. As such, the company decided to accommodate additions such as bike storage, bicycle service station, a recycling area and charging points for electric cars. To achieve the large scale of this project, Fracthon proposed expanding the site by adding two new buildings that complement the brewery’s existing structure by mirroring some of the existing architectural detailing.

The result is a development that stands proudly and portrays a grand, yet inviting atmosphere for residents and visitors alike.

The company boasts three award-winning projects: Azure Paris Beach Club, JOYA Residential Unit and The Galleon Residences Showroom.

Azure Paris Beach Club is designed as a onestop amenity clubhouse for Azure Residences, located in the southern area of Metro Manila.

Named after Paris Hilton, Chat Fores wanted the design to match the American media personality’s fun-loving nature. Pinks, whites, blacks, reds and other metallic finishes were therefore used throughout. To capture Paris’ love of life, a variety of fun spaces were included: a candy café, kiddie corner, movie room, gym, spa, nail and massage area, function room, party room and restaurant and outdoor party ‘island’.

The Galleon Residences Showroom

The company’s JOYA Residential Unit project serves as a halfway house for the clients’ family where they can stay in during weekends. What is most striking about this loft is the impressive collection of contemporary art. A large Kiki Escora piece can be found at the centre of the gallery wall, flanked by works of Christian Tamondong whose multi-coloured faces hang opposite the more muted, political works by Jose Tence Ruiz.

Set in a prime location, the 360m² Galleon Residences showroom is located in a bustling high-end shopping mall. The project has neutral and warm-toned furniture pieces and accessories, that greatly complement and bring out the details of the wall finishes. The Galleon is set to be a stylish home built for modern city dwellers and families who are attracted to an urban lifestyle.

With a passion for ancient Egypt, WAI’s client wanted to mirror specific elements throughout the design of Sofitel Dubai The Obelisk. The building itself is shaped as an immense obelisk standing 51-storeys tall in the heart of Dubai.

Impressive pharaonic columns stand tall within the 18-metre high entrance lobby, carved with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. A nine-metre wide golden falcon sculpture takes centre stage over the reception desks. The falcon symbolises the Egyptian god of the sky Horus, representing immense power. Falcons are also the UAE’s national bird and a potent symbol of the nation’s strength and heritage.

The French restaurant’s design elements include luxurious Egyptian motifs and bold colours such as white, black and gold. Fluted columns, plaster reliefs and bulbous light fittings appear throughout. The client also wanted WA International to deliver an English gastropub.

The design concept was inspired by the client’s fondness for cats, therefore the cat goddess Bastet became the Egyptian reference. Her story is carved in hieroglyphic stone panels, while large images of her silhouette adorn the rear walls.

The executive club offers an impressive 360° view of Dubai. The colours were kept light and fresh with touches of pale green. Mirrored columns with art deco palm leaf patterns were used to reflect the views throughout the space. Touches of French sophistication and contemporary ancient Egyptian accents are also evident. All these interior elements blend to create a truly spectacular design.

Quatuor, with its four compact structures, is an office project situated at the entrance of the Brussels Northern District.

De Victorie is a former farm building now used as a restaurant, party and wine tasting venue, located on an historic site adjacent to a 12th Century castle in Linden. A key aspect of the renovation was to expose and retain the hugely important roof structure, and preserve the ancient vaults and authentic wooden doors that makes this particular building so special. Also included was the creation of a new building housing the Wine Atelier, where grapes are processed and wines are matured and later bottled.

 Z A work across a range of residential, commercial, hotel and mixed-use projects.

The company has a reputation for bringing both a personal touch and a wealth of experience to every project, from conception all the way to completion.

The first of many projects which showcase the company’s undeniable abilities is the Skills Tower office design. It encompasses a bold and contemporary tower that changes appearance as it rises, emphasises transparency and lightness, and responds to the balance between architecture and nature.

In order to make the most of natural light, a variety of materials was used to create a softer and more subtle play of light and shadow. The impressive building rises to the tenth floor, with the first two floors being dominated by a magnificent entrance hall.

Villa Azalea was built to offer guests total relaxation and a unique experience. The Atlas Mountain that the site overlooks was motivation for the design’s open, outward facing orientation. The villa is characterised by its high transparency which allows the construction to fit harmoniously into the surroundings, with open fragmented glass walls showcasing views of the mountains.

Almas Delux 5-star hotel consists of 99 bedrooms and suites as well as various leisure functions such as a large lobby, two restaurants, a bar and sitting areas. The project is surrounded by carefully treated gardens, while the façade of the building is clad in wooden slats used in combination with an exposed concrete slab and a series of glass panels along the terraces. The use of these durable and natural elements embodies the special interest of integrating sustainability into design.

MANTERA Seaview residence Olimpic Avenue

   the entire MANTERA Seaview residence complex is light and open and harkens back to the ancient architecture of the Mediterranean.

Located directly on the seaside against the backdrop of Sochi’s unique natural landscape, the residences offer vistas of mountain peaks and the sea while retaining the privacy of a country estate. The project was conceived as a neoclassical haven in the context of a marine environment, hence the characteristic stylistic elements of smooth lines and natural texture, highlighting the traditional southern flavour of the area. A world-class five-star hotel with 400 rooms and a convention centre accommodating up to 1,200 guests are located next door to the compound.

MANTERA Seaview residence has variable storeys of six, seven and eight floors with a

cascading structure reminiscent of a flowing mountain river. The plasticity of the façades reflects the distinctive nature of the southern sea town – an open space for relaxation has been provided for each residence: a patio, terrace or loggia.

The penthouse design in particular has been inspired by the freedom provided by the endless sea, which can be viewed from a private terrace. The design gives air, and allows the space to breathe. The living room is composed of two dominant features – a massive, custom-made marble table, and a membrane of wooden lamellae. The membrane divides the space into two functional areas – dining and lounge.. Overall, the mild climate of the foothills, pleasant prevailing winds, and plant diversity have created a blooming oasis of year-round comfort.

ased in Hong Kong, the inT Design Furniture team creates ideal home and office spaces with a high degree of freedom and flexibility.

The company was tasked with renovating the Central Park project as the clients were expecting a baby, and they wanted to make more use of the space within their home. The original layout of the house consisted of a master bedroom with connecting room, guest room, study room, living and dining area and two storage rooms.

To create a sense of warmth and sophistication in the living/dining room, soft grey hues were used in conjunction with white tones. A large painting was hung on one of the walls to add depth and visual interest, whilst

Fornasetti Lina Cavalieri plates were mounted along with textured wallpaper to create a feature wall.

To better utilise the space within the home, the guest room and one of the storage rooms were converted into a walk-in closet. As the walk-in closet is the wife’s personal haven, pink and white tones with marble and gold accents were used to add a feminine appeal.

With its beautiful soft grey and dusky pink hues, the master bedroom was transformed into a romantic sanctuary. White marble and gold accents added an immediate sense of luxury, while the pink upholstered wall panel clearly marks the sleep zone. The final result is an all-encompassing luxury home to create the perfect haven.

Weaving together the past and the present, the project blends nostalgic French sophistication with traditional Indochine chic, resulting in a unique, decadent and opulent experience. Each space is adorned with the owner’s personal collection of fine art, Vietnamese porcelains and Indochine furniture pieces that were handmade and traditionally lacquered by local craftsmen.

Anantara Desaru Coast Resort & Villas is located on Malaysia’s south coast and is inspired by the Malay Kampung Houses.

Traditionally, the entrance to a Malay home

This element is captured within the design of the Anantara villas on a more grandeur scale.

Reflecting on the definition of hotel luxury, EDC incorporated the influence of the vibrant Malaysian spirit and its multicultural people. The result of this included indigenous wood carvings accented by hand-loomed ‘songket’ textiles, woven wicker screens and rattan furniture.

Park Hyatt Saigon features French colonial architecture, exquisite Vietnamese art and antique furniture. Throughout this renovation project EDC replaced old wooden coffee tables with solid stainless-steel frames. Old lighting fixtures were replaced with Schonbek crystal products, whilst new artworks from up-andcoming local artists added throughout.

Ideally located between the beaches of Ayia Thekla and Makronisos, Ayia Napa Marina features 220 spacious luxury apartments in two impressive twisting towers, and 35 luxury villas. Additionally, it features a marina with significant mooring capacity and world-class yachting facilities for 600 yachts.

When famous architect Santiago Calatrava designed the renowned Turning Torso building, he paved the way for a new era in the world of architecture with the introduction of ‘twisting’ design. The tower’s twisting architectural design was also inspired by the female figure and the draped robes

of the Caryatids and sculptures found at archaeological sites around Cyprus. Their façades are articulated with a filigree of warm-toned vertical sunshades suggestive of woodcraft and the detail of shipbuilding.

Cyprus, in turn, now has its own first twisting tower of over 100 metres in height at Ayia Napa Marina, visible from both land and sea. The East Tower is located in the Marina’s commercial hub, offering a vibrant and bustling environment for its residents and visitors. The development’s second tower, the West, is located in a more tranquil area of the development.

The two T-shaped towers rotate approximately 1.6 degrees per floor, from west to east, as they ascend to take full advantage of the panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, the Marina, and the surrounding coastline.The East Tower and West Tower stand out in splendour like beacons welcoming seafarers, residents and visitors alike.

While materialising a vision for the future, Park Silom will also strongly reflect the evolution of Silom through the years. With this in mind, the architecture will fuse both traditional and contemporary elements into one cohesive and timeless design. As the gaze moves from the bottom to the top of the tower, the design will visually evolve.

To cater to the needs of today’s working professionals, Park Silom will integrate the latest technology with innovative design concepts. Factors like a high-performance façades, creative working spaces, efficient transportation links and wellness facilities will mould this vision.

Silom’s form needed to stand out distinctly against the sky. As the tower will not be the tallest by any means, the distinct outline of the building has to express the DNA of Park Silom. From a distance, the building will catch one’s eye and be a prominent part of the city’s skyline.

While the office floors will be cordoned off from public access, the base of the building housing the retail podium will be designed for the public. This was why 9,000m² of retail and a landscaped public plaza were included in the masterplan. In fact, the building structure itself was pushed back from Silom road, to accommodate the open-air plaza. Park Silom’s design will also incorporate a direct link from the premises to the Sala Dang BTS station.

There will be two separate links to the station, with one through the plaza and the other open to the public.

Set in Lubowa, there is a sense of being in a semi-rural environment, but the Central Business District is close by, as is Entebbe Airport and its expressway. Solana will be the first development in this area to offer a true live, work, play and stay environment.

Leisure, hospitality and green open spaces will offer respite while four linear parks along the riverine system will create a formal green lung – unique in this part of Africa – a restored habitat-rich open forest, a communal food garden and orchards, as well as boulevard parks along the main roadsides.

Residences include a range of beautifully designed villas, bungalows, townhouses, apartments and penthouses created to satisfy the requirements, lifestyle, needs and aspirations of their owners, whether they be for occupation or investment.

The planned retail, commercial and leisure offerings will appeal not only to purchasers of Solana Residential units – whether they be young professionals, families or retirees – but also those living in the surrounding affluent area of Lubowa, young people from Kampala seeking the amenities on offer, and ex-pats from Entebbe. A great deal of time, thought and innovation has been devoted to services such as efficient and effective waste management, ICT, voice and data provision, digital satellite television and security, all elements which can often be taken for granted, but only if they are well considered, as they have been here.

Located in the foothills of Khao Yai National Park, Toscana Valley is an upscale residential community that celebrates the earthy simplicity of Tuscan living with thoughtfully designed, charming Italian-style villas, condominiums and suites.

The attention to detail is second to none, ensuring that the villas perfectly blend in with the hilly terrain. Villa sizes range from 400 to

Currently there are three condominium projects within the premises. Town Square Residence is the first condo complex at the heart of the valley. La Casetta III is located at the west end of the valley. Ten of the two-four storey buildings are scattered along a lake with spectacular views of the beautiful mountain backdrop. Finally, Castello della Valle is located at the central area of Toscana Valley right by the clubhouse and the first tee-off of the golf course.

Amenities include a driving range, clubhouse, spa, dining selections and wine bar.

Bringing strategic thoughts to realisation, AfterBuild’s team of talented and passionate people work together to produce consistently great results.

Sponsored by AfterBuild, Mad for Garlic is an Italian restaurant and wine space where more than 90% of the menu is based on garlic.

It is located in the new Nan Shan Plaza on the 7th floor in Taipei, Taiwan.

Considering the commercial positioning of the brand, the design pays special attention to a variety of elements. In an environment that uses a lot of iron, wood and brick walls, the fusion of delicate and elegant deep-grained marble used throughout this project adds a touch of luxury.

Several key areas that exude opulence include the forecourt bar, a neatly arranged glass wine cabinet, the central seating area enveloped in European style and the open kitchen. The kitchen allows diners to watch the chefs as they prepare garlic-infused meals, while the wine cellar is home to over 100 wines, which means that individuals have plenty to choose from.

Combining a vision of luxury with great skill has made Mad for Garlic a staple of Taipei’s restaurant industry.

   her daily surroundings as well as her travels, Nina Mair’s aim is to create bespoke designs and spaces which tell a story and develop over time, just like the people who use them. The whole team considers its work to be successful when it stirs pride emotionally, and when the result is timeless, subtle and long lasting. When Kursaal Bern became a franchise partner of the Swissôtel Brand, owned by Accor, a world leading hospitality group in 2019, the redesign

by Nina was the perfect opportunity to implement this philosophy and create a new vision for the hotel.

The existing décor of Kursaal Bern was functional but dark and uninspiring. This redesign was an opportunity not only to address a new target group, but also

broaden the possibilities of the building’s multifunctional spaces, and reflect the history and importance of the hotel.

The finished design not only includes many Nina Mair bespoke furnishings, but introduces more natural and zoned lighting schemes, a concept of a cocooning openness, and well considered acoustics. The use of subtle hues, a restrained palette and natural materials reflects the architectural history. The reception desk for example is custom built from stone, with a ‘fretwork’ relief across its surface which featured in the design of the original building, and a leather top which is practical as well as tactile. The intuitive bedroom designs include specially created built-in furniture, multiuse zones for living and working, and custom tiled bathrooms. Every detail has been considered here for a comfortable, calming and cosy stay.

an exceptional experience, maintain the connection between the two floors, and define the various spaces within. With an emphasis on perfect finishes, one of the main decisive elements in this case was the stunning staircase, which aimed to go further than simply satisfy a functional requirement. Other striking features include the rooftop garden, terrace, dining, barbecue grill and swimming pool which add luxurious amenities, beautifully executed.

Throughout the apartment the décor is both contemporary and urban, with sophistication meeting minimalism. High end furniture and bespoke pieces blend with a sober and linear architecture, complemented by a neutral yet warm colour palette. All this is interspersed with truly striking and original design features and clever lighting schemes.

As a sustainable and compact ‘city within a city’, Kiara Bay, situated in Kuala Lumpur, is a cornucopia of residential, retail, entertainment, education, and wellness components across three districts: The Waters, The Walk and The Village.

The Waters district represents an ecosystem in balance, featuring the Waterfront Promenade, Canal Retail and Wetland Walk, and integrates nature, the township, and its community. As the Central Business District (CBD), The Walk houses the opulent Kiara Bay Mall and an iconic office tower where startups, established companies and entrepreneurs converge. This district houses a wellness centre, a dedicated learning hub, community hub and assisted living facilities.

The Walk district, the buzzing and active CBD of Kiara Bay, is the base of its first phase project. Residensi AVA offers elevated urban eco-living for all ages and life stages. This project features two towers of exclusively designed serviced apartments topped off with unique facilities and amenities.

While forming alliances result in spectacular things, UEM Sunrise Berhad’s Residensi Allevia Mont’Kiara can be described as a luxurious living sanctuary in the clouds.

Situated a stone’s throw away from the CBD of Mont’Kiara, Allevia places individuals at the heart of affluence with hospitality at its forefront. There are only four units on each floor and a host of amenities on offer. A large fluted wall makes an everlasting impression on arrival at the main lobby, while soft luxurious panelling adorns the lift lobby walls. Lavishness and opulence are certainly two defining factors that make this project a true stand-out.

The company was founded on the belief that thoughtful, harmonious design leads to real estate development that blurs the boundaries between physical space and meaningful living.

Located on Hokkaido, Japan’s second largest island, within an 8-minute walk of the famous Higashiyama ski-slopes, Koa Niseko is an exclusive collection of twenty beautifully crafted fully furnished turnkey homes. Synonymous with meticulous workmanship and an appreciation for natural beauty, the name Koa stems from the incredible wood of the same name which is native to the islands of Hawaii.

From the position of each tree to the slope of each roof and the hand curated interior furnishings, the entire development has been very carefully considered. Here at Koa Niseko,

the philosophy of Supernova Land shines through – a slow lifestyle, pristine attention to detail and well-considered design.

Set amidst large, beautifully landscaped freehold lots, at 194m² the Koa Villas are wooden clad, two-storey, three-bedroom homes each with a balcony and covered porch. Interiors are a fusion of Japanese and Scandinavian contemporary design; a balance of simplicity and warmth. Lofty high ceilings and full height windows in the living rooms offer plenty of natural light and the perfect spot to relax and unwind.

The whole development has been extremely carefully considered. Every tree on the 8,000m² plot was surveyed, categorised, tagged, numbered and accounted for, before work began. White birch trees were re-planted where possible whilst trees which needed to be cleared were donated to be used as building materials and fuel to benefit the local community.

Cantonments City

C

 C  a well-planned and thoughtfully designed mixed-use development situated in the heart of Accra. Due to its proximity to the Kotoka International Airport, commercial hubs like Osu, and government hotspots such as the Jubilee House, it is set to become Accra’s premier high street destination and lifestyle centre. Cantonments City was designed with one goal in mind: to create a community where all aspects of life, work and leisure can seamlessly coexist and harmoniously thrive in a vibrant and promising space.

The client, Goldkey Properties Limited, required a world-class mixed-use development, which would strike a seamless balance between aesthetics and functionality, and blend residential, commercial, leisure, retail and entertainment properties into one space.

Cannon House

Cannon House is positioned on the left wing of the Cantonments city, opposite the Green Park and adjacent to the multi-storey car park. It is one of eight Grade A commercial buildings in Cantonments City.

Cannon House was purposefully designed and constructed to blend form and function into one space which inspires creativity and encourages productivity. The building merges a one-of-a-kind design with high-end interiors into a Grade A lettable office space right in the heart of Accra, a desirable business address for any prestigious and modern company in Ghana.

Occupants of Cannon House and the other commercial buildings have access to communal and leisure facilities to ensure rest and relaxation during and after working hours. In close proximity to Cannon House is the Cantonments City Gardens – a strategically situated lush green oasis of approximately 850m².

the last resort

Hotel Marqués de Riscal Located in Eltziego, Spain, the Hotel Marqués de Riscal, A Luxury Collection Hotel, was designed by Frank Gehry, one of the world’s top architects. The hotel combines the most deeply rooted winemaking tradition with an avant-garde design, luxury and the most advanced technology of the 21st century.

It offers all the luxury standards and services that you would expect from a hotel with The Luxury Collection brand, together with the personal stamp of Frank Gehry: the titanium and steel of the roofing panels and the asymmetry of the wall and floor tiles. The 61 luxury bedrooms, 10 of them suites, split between two buildings linked by a spectacular raised walkway, are all unique, both in their forms and their outlook. www.marquesderiscal.com
