With the gleaming flat screens in our homes sizing up year after year and media displays growing to increasingly life-sized proportions, you may have wondered, what’s next? A TV so big, apparently, that it’s not likely to fit inside even the largest of rooms. Designed by Porsche Design Studio and produced by Austrian maker C SEED Entertainment Systems, the newly launched C SEED 201 unveils an amazing 201 inches of screen, earning it the title of the world’s largest TV to date. Not expected to fit most indoor dwellings, the colossal screen is intended mainly for outdoor use – perfect, creators say, for private yacht screenings. Size aside, the expectation-exceeding philosophy behind C SEED 201
extends to the technology and image quality aspects, making for a showpiece that is truly larger than life. Made up of more than 725,000 LEDs, the water-resistant display boasts cutting-edge technology including 4.4 trillion colors and a 100,000 HZ refresh rate (500 times the rate of a standard TV screen). It is also the only LED TV with a six-millimeter pixel pitch, ensuring crystal clear visibility even in bright sunlight. Held up on a secure below-ground shaft, the set folds away at the touch of a button when not in use, using seven folding panels. Unfolding is just as instant, taking only 40 seconds to reach full height of 4.65m; desired level and viewing angle are adjustable by remote control for personalized viewing comfort, rotating up to 270 degrees. The unit comes complete with a Windows 7-based multisource media server equipped for both digital and analog video input including HDTV, Blu-Ray, and gaming consoles. Security is enforced with biometric fingerprint sensors built into the remote control to deter unauthorized
access. The C SEED 201 comes with a price tag of $687,775 USD – or the approximate equivalent of four Porsche 911s.

The Hotel Sans Souci Wien in the Museumstraße 1 in the 7th district, brought to life together with the ingenious design partner yoo, is a breathtaking mixture of art, design, cool savoir vivre and unobtrusive luxury. Check in or move in? That is not the question here. The painstakingly revitalized building steeped in history is home to a deluxe boutique hotel as well as “hotelserviced residences“ on the top floor – a perfect retreat right in the heart of Vienna. “Charismatic luxury probably best describes the secret of the Sans Souci Wien Hotel“, explains Norbert Winkelmayer, CEO of the Sans Souci Group. “It is the special combination of art, design and good taste which defines the incomparable Sans Souci charm. Not ostentatious but with a reserved coolness – it is a way of life, a lifestyle.” A collection of modern art is generously displayed in the Sans Souci Wien. It is thus just as natural to stumble across original works of art by Roy Lichtenstein, Allen Jones or Steve Kaufman in the communal areas or in the rooms as it is to take a seat on designer furniture by Tom Dixon or Egg Chairs by Arne Jacobsen. Hotel Sans Souci is designed by the yoo Studio, the in-house design team from world renowned design company yoo founded by designer Philippe Starck and the visionary real estate developer John Hitchcox. Since 1999, they have been creating innovative hotel and living spaces with inspiring designs and extraordinary ambiences worldwide. In the Hotel Sans Souci Wien, yoo have transformed their vision of an urban living experience for the first time in an Austrian hotel. The charismatic yoo design language shapes the entire building, from the light-flooded lobby to all of the 63 individually arranged and spacious rooms and suites furnished in light colours.
The Hotel Sans Souci Wien is located in a building which was erected in 1872 and looks back at a vivid past. The inn “Zum großen Zeisig“, in which Johann Strauß performed his “Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka“ for the first time in 1858, was also located here. From 1873 to 1953, the house was in almost continuous operation as “Hotel Höller“ with just a brief interruption due to U.S. occupation after the Second World War. The Sans Souci Group acquired the building in August 2010 and began renovation works the following October. Due to its history, great care was taken in the course of the construction works to preserve the original brickwork and special charm of the building and to create an exclusive living atmosphere.
Art and culture dominate life within the walls of the hotel and also the immediate surroundings: The Sans Souci Wien in Museumstraße 1, 1070 Vienna, is in the midst of a pulsating centre of museums, theatres and a lively restaurant and bar scene. The artistic and cultural district Spittelberg and the Museumsquartier are just a stone‘s throw away, the Mariahilferstraße, Vienna’s largest shopping mile, and the elegant luxury boutiques in the 1st district are within walking distance.
The visibly proud CEO Norbert Winkelmayer explains, “We are the Viennese version of an international boutique hotel“, it is thus by no means surprising that Sans Souci Wien is a member of the international Boutique Hotel Group, the Preferred Boutique, which defines itself over a personal and stylish hotel experience. w w w.sanssouci-wien.com

the brand new supercharged
2013 Jaguar XJ SUPERSPORT & ULTIMATE
text :: Kate Missine
With its legacy of classic elegance and solid dependability, what better way for Jaguar to kick off 2013 than with a timely image makeover – debuting the revamped XJ, its trademark style tuned for economy-minded times. The 2013 XJ range will see a brand-new supercharged 340-hp, 3.0L V6 as the base engine, offered alongside standard 5.0L V8 models. With 332 lb-ft of torque, the V6 blasts from 0 to 60 in 5.7 seconds, just 0.3 seconds slower than its V8 predecessor. V8 engines are still offered on the rest of the lineup, pumped
up to 510-hp for the Supersport and Ultimate models. An all-new Intuitive All-Wheel Drive system, available only with the V6, works to intelligently maintain traction under rough conditions, and an automatic start/stop feature helps maximize fuel savings. Predictably, the V6 model boasts the greatest fuel economy figures, with rates of 18 city/28 highway mpg. All four models are endowed with a new eight-speed ZF automatic transmission to take performance efficiency even further, controlled with
the JaguarDrive Selector for optimal convenience. For a customized driver experience, JaguarDrive Control offers two modes, Dynamic for the enthusiast driver, and Winter for increased traction in harsh conditions. The XJ Adaptive Dynamics technology analyzes speed, steering and body movements 500 times a second and adjusts the suspension with electronic dampers to achieve optimal balance between comfort and handling precision. The XJ will be keeping to its signature styling, including the panoramic roof, Bi-function HID Xenon headlamps, and alloy wheels in up to 8 design options, but sleeking up the infotainment for 2013 with smart navigation and Meridian audio systems. For those seeking to take it one step further, the year will also mark the premiere of one of Jaguar’s most decadent rides yet: the new flagship XJL Ultimate, whose decked-out cabin packs all the smoothness and pamper factor of a private jet. The Ultimate replaces the rear bench seat with two individual recliners, complete with heating/cooling and massage options. In the middle, a console holds a bottle cooler, bespoke champagne flutes, and motorized tray table. Passengers are treated to Jaguar’s Rear Seat Entertainment system, featuring an eight-inch screen embedded into each headrest, a 20-speaker Meridian audio system, and two iPads fitted onto the rear seatbacks, paired with wireless keyboards. Chrome finishing and exclusively designed 20-inch aluminum wheels deck the exterior. Only thirty XJ Ultimate models will be imported to America, with a price tag of $155,875.

Driven by a paradoxically simple yet complex calibre, it pays tribute to the legendary precision so greatly appreciated by the most daring sea captains of yesteryear. It features a subtle blend of poetry and authentic watchmaking expertise.
