LYNETTE’S QUOTE OF THE SEASON One of my favorite quotes is presumed to have been written by Oscar Wilde (although that is still questioned by quoteinvestigator.com):

“Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.�

It’s incredible how one sentence can say so much.

It’s just a chapter, it’s not your book.

L

et me start by saying how truly humbled I am by the number of people who took the time to write me with their positive feedback about my last Publisher’s Note, which included my “Tips to Combat the Holiday Blues & Live a Happier Life.â€? Your responses touched my heart and inspired me to continue to do more of what I love: Write. I hope that you continue to enjoy reading my “lessonsâ€? as much as I enjoy writing them. + CO NWEM[ VQ DG VJG V[RG QH RGTUQP YJQ ECP Ć‚PF VJG UKNXGT NKPKPI KP just about anything. If there is a pile horse of sh** around, I will look for the horse nearby. Don’t get me wrong: There have been periods in my life when I couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. As an entrepreneur, trust me, there were—and still are—many dark tunnels of uncertainty. But I always seem to take a more challenging path.

Maybe it’s because I dare to be different and choose the road less traveled. I am always climbing up the mountain. Every now and then, I imagine how great it would feel to be heading down the mountain.

And then I remind myself that I choose to face these fears and challenges. I don’t want to get to the end of my life and say, “I wish I would have,� which is actually my greatest fear! It’s this journey that is “my story.� These are the chapters that make it that much more exciting and meaningful. I am the author of my life, and I am writing my book exactly as I want it to be.

I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! I built this publication from the ground up over eight years ago. It truly is my passion. I am very connected to my clients and readers and would love to hear your feedback.

W

hen I moved to Miami in January 2010, South Florida was an entirely different place from what it is today. Brickell was just starting to gain momentum. Much of Downtown was sketchy at night. Broward was where you went to settle down. And Palm Beach was for snowbirds. How things have changed!

It is for this reason that I find our 2019 Real Estate Showcase (Page 63) so fascinating. We talked to some of the area’s top industry professionals about how the region has evolved, the current state of the market, the trends they are seeing and the most extravagant new and soon-to-debut residential properties. Whether you are looking to move to a new home, downsize to a luxury condo or make a wise investment purchase, you will find all the information here that you need to get started.

Even if you aren’t planning for a big move or purchase, your home could always use some extra TLC. For our Home Design Showcase (Page 29), we tapped some of the most creative minds in South Florida and beyond to provide you with tons of design inspiration for just about every room of the house.

For this issue’s Destinations feature (Page 76), we have provided a mini guide to luxury travel in London, one of my favorite cities and where I had the opportunity to visit over the summer.

Finally, check out our Valentine’s Day Gift Guide (Page 90), where we’ve put together a selection of items that will make perfect gifts for the ones you love most.

Enjoy!

Maven’s Crab Salad

Chef W. Scott Osif

What sets Maven apart from other local restaurants? Maven stands out because of the history of the building. We have breathed fresh air into these more than 100-year-old bones, both in the interior and exterior design. Also, there are so many choices to the dining experience, whether it’s having drinks at the bar or dining alfresco on the patio. Our Tuesday live jazz nights, Friday late-night DJ and Saturday brunch music programs will also bring back some of the glamour from previous incarnations of the space.

You’re the executive chef at two restaurants in Nantucket, Afterhouse Seafood Bistro & Wine Bar and Galley Beach. How FQGU VJCV KPĆƒWGPEG [QWT VKOG CV /CXGP!

Living room design by David Mitchell Brown

DESIGN TALK

Some of South Florida’s best and brightest designers and decorators share tips and trends to help you tailor your home to express your own incomparable style.

That’s My Cue

When you’re telling a color story, artwork is a great prologue. Art is so personal and important that it’s not uncommon for designers to take color cues from their clients’ existing collections. “I often preview a client’s art before we start,� says Mitchell Brown of David Mitchell Brown, who placed an edgy photograph just outside the entrance to the living room of this chic penthouse. “I pulled the red and blue from the art and used them in my design. Then, I threw in some yellow to complete the primary color scheme.� Brown does offer this caveat: “If the colors are exactly the same, it’s too matchy-matchy.� Instead, opt for variations of a color to achieve a “layered� look.

It’s Not All White

Vincenzo Avanzato

When we think of contemporary design, we often envision an ocean of white. But Vincenzo #XCP\CVQ YJQ HQWPFGF JKU GRQP[OQWU Ć‚TO Avanzato Design in 1999, doesn’t see it that way. “Color and contemporary can be synonymous,â€? he says, adding that it’s OK to be daring with color, just as long as the bold hues don’t overpower the linear silhouettes. The palette for the room shown here was inspired by his client’s interesting, colorful necklaces. Steering away from patterns, he used solid splashes of color like indigo and wisteria to add excitement without minimizing the modern elements in the room.

When your goal is to create enduring spaces, turning to classical design ensures you will never go wrong. “Subtle sophistication, which is timeless, is the cornerstone of classical design,� says Jaime Blomquist, founder and principal of Jaime Blomquist Interiors. She uses architectural details such as ornate moldings over doorways, windows and wall paneling, keeping them crisp white and pairing them with complementing colors like gray as a simple way to accentuate the intrinsic beauty of a room. “Melding traditional features with simplicity achieves clean, timeless spaces that linger long in your memory,� she adds.

Having trademarked the phrase “Designing the New Palm Beach,� Krista Watterworth Alterman, creative director for Krista + Home, is in favor of “deleting the vibe� brought about by the thick drapes, ornate details and jewel tones that characterize the stereotypical Palm Beach aesthetic of the past, while emphasizing the importance of preserving some of those elements that give Palm Beach its beloved charm.

From the Inside Out

Our climate allows us to enjoy the outdoors year-round, which means the integration of indoor/outdoor space is essential. “Opening the interior of a home to the exterior not only doubles the size of your living area, it’s also great for entertaining,â€? says Carlos Bravo, owner of UrvanX, a full-service architecture and FGUKIP Ć‚TO *GTG JG KNNWUVTCVGU JQY VJKU KU RQUUKDNG HQT CNN V[RGU QH home projects.

New Build: For a new build, the indoor-outdoor transition comes into play in the early schematics; in many cases, it is the driving force of the actual design. I do this throughout the home, whether it’s for the living, dining or great room. Private gardens off the master bath with an outdoor shower also allow for a luxurious connection to nature.

Renovation: It just takes some reimagining to bring the outdoors into an existing home. For example, we LWUV Ć‚PKUJGF C JQWUG QP .CMG %CVCNKPC YJGTG YG QRGPGF VJG GZVGTKQT YCNN CPF OQXGF VJG NKXKPI CTGCU VQ VJG UGEQPF ĆƒQQT 6JGP YG DWKNV C deck from which lake vistas could be enjoyed.

FATHER NATURE

It’s a wonder how he manages to keep it all straight, but Felipe Londono is without a doubt one of the most knowledgeable and talented “outdoorsmen” we know. With three flourishing businesses in his charge, Londono is fluent in South Florida’s outdoor living vernacular. Here, he educates us on how to make our external environments as purposeful and picturesque as can be.

THROWING SHADE

VERTICAL GARDENS

It’s South Florida. It gets hot, the humidity can be off the charts, and the forecast changes by the moment. So how do you design an outdoor space that adequately shields you, but is also beautiful?

The Patio District has the answer, and it comes in the form of custom-designed, constructed and installed pergolas, available in any style, size or material that suits your needs. “Pergolas offer an aesthetic enhancement, as well as provide much-needed shade,” says Londono, who also praises retractable and louvered roof systems, which give you control as the weather shifts. The Patio

Just as there’s “a cover for every pot,” there’s a vertical garden for every plant lover, and Zensa Design is dedicated to helping [QW ƂPF CP KPPQXCVKXG XGTVKECN ICTFGP FKURNC[ VJCV ƂVU [QWT PGGFU “The one you choose is mostly dependent on how much time you want to dedicate to maintenance,” says Londono, who outlines the choices and explains the various types of vertical gardens below.

District, 3305 NW 79th Ave., Doral; 786.518.2307; thepatiodistrict.com

COOKING ALFRESCO An outdoor kitchen is a true luxury, and no matter the size of your space, having one is within reach. “Figuring out your layout is important,” says Londono, who designs outstanding custom outdoor kitchens under his company Luxapatio. Before considering your space, think about how it will be used. Will it be a bar for hanging out, a place for barbecuing or a full dining area designed for multicourse meals? If your space is vast, the sky’s the limit, but don’t be daunted if space is limited. “I love designing for smaller spaces,” says Londono. “It’s more challenging creatively.” Luxapatio,

High Maintenance: With contemporary looks being so prevalent in design these days, traditional vertical gardens are a smart way to introduce nature and natural elements to a home, though they do require constant attention and a full irrigation system.

Low Maintenance: Moss normally grows in damp conditions, but through an adaptation process, it can now be hung on a wall as a vertical garden. This design requires minimal maintenance, comes in tons of color options, absorbs odor and helps purify the air. Moss tends to dry out with time, but spritzing it with a water bottle once a month will keep it thriving.

ARTISTIC DESIGNS

Visionary artist and furniture designer Jaime Perczek, ASFD (American Society of Furniture Designers)

Born in Cali, Colombia, Jaime Perczek is a professional furniture designer known for his wide range of style and finishes—from furniture design to top residential interiors.

Perczek studied business in Bogota, Colombia and Boston University, as well as hotel management at Florida International University.

Influenced by the late Karl Springer and Vladimir Kagan, Perczek developed an interest in furniture manufacturing and design. He opened his first furniture showroom in the early 1980s at High Point, NC Design Center.

In 1987, he opened his studio as a furniture designer at the Design Center of the Americas (DCOTA), where you can still find his famous extraordinary finishes and NeoDeco furniture style.

Perczek was recently commissioned to refurbish the interiors of the Nadan Superyacht (151-ft. custom motor yacht). He also just completed the multimillion-dollar penthouse furniture and interiors at the Vistablue Building in Singer Island, Florida.

High end interior designers and their clients look for personalized design and a

taste of the one-of-a-kind furniture that is custom manufactured at Perczek’s factory in Colombia and in the local workshop.

Perczek’s work is known for fluid, organic forms and the inclusion of subtle, playful details, with a preference for gemstones and exotic woods. He has developed an excellent reputation on the basis of his wide range of interior finishes and customized designs, as well as his in-depth technical knowledge to get projects completed.

Designing one-of-a-kind furniture is in many ways like creating a piece of custom jewelry. It starts with a vision, and then is brought to life with expert craftsmanship, where precious materials and textures are transformed into an art that is utterly unique and joyful.

Large projects and manufacturing with exclusive techniques have become the expression of Perczek’s talent. From intuitive space planning and ideas sketching to inhouse CAD drawings and manufacturing, finishing and installations, “The comprehensive package we offer is one-of-a-kind in our industry,” says Perczek.

PROMOTIONAL FEATURE

“To be a trusted designer involves knowing about many different disciplines and responsibilities,” says Perczek. “Plenty of on the job experience, as well as loving the business of interiors, has allowed me to be of service to many excellent interior designers and their clients’ unique j projects.”

A WELLNESS DESTINATION

After much anticipation, Auberge Beach Residences & Spa has debuted its 15,000-square-foot relaxation retreat, the Spa at Auberge Beach, welcoming residents and guests to experience a holistic journey through the senses.

“Broward has all the things Miami has— an international airport, golf, restaurants, museums—but it’s a quieter lifestyle.”

CARLOS ROSSO President of Condominium Development Related Group

For more than 15 years, Carlos Rosso, president of condominium development at Related Group, has been making deals, managing projects and building some of South Florida’s most iconic properties. He's excited about Broward’s continued evolution—though he has known about its allure for years. “Related has been in Broward for 20 years, so it’s not new to us,” he says.

Try the Self-Guided Vitality Ritual, which begins with a session in the ”sound meditation lounge” before continuing with a visit to the salt cave, which helps boost the immune, nervous and lymphatic systems. Follow this with time in infrared sauna for ultimate detoxification, then finish off with the hot steam room and a cool deluge shower.

Another must-try is the Auberge Anthology, a trio of treatments that includes a soothing massage, a hydrating body treatment and a radiant facial.

What is new? Related’s newest oceanfront property, a codevelopment with Fortune International Group and Fairwinds Group, Auberge Beach Residences & Spa, which has been in development for almost 10 years. Sitting on 4.6 acres with 450 feet of beachfront, Auberge is the perfect combination of a fantastic brand, top-notch service, a beautiful restaurant and a superb spa—all at the glistening edge of the sea.

Thanks to properties like Auberge, as well as the soon-tobe-completed Hyde Beach House Hollywood, Broward is experiencing a resurgence. “Broward has all the things Miami has—an international airport, golf, restaurants, museums—but it’s a quieter lifestyle,” Rosso says. “Miami is 30 minutes away, so residents can go there, then return to their paradise.” It’s the same sand and sun but at a fraction of the price, he adds.

Rosso predicts that Broward will continue to grow. But with fewer new projects coming online, and no more beachfront upon which to build, the scarcity will make current inventory disappear quickly.

For an ultra-modern experience, it’s hard to compete with ME London, the trendy flagship property of the ME by Meliá group (which also has a Miami location).

Set in the heart of London’s Theatreland, the 157-room hotel was designed around a magnificent nine-story pyramid-shaped atrium, which starts at the bottom-floor lobby and extends through to the rooftop bar Radio. ME London is also home to STK, which offers its famed American steakhouse menu in an edgy, upbeat atmosphere. Editor’s tip: Come hungry and order the Feasting Board for Two to share.

melondonhotel.com; togrp.com/stk-london For more traditional, yet equally impressive accommodations, set your sights on The May Fair Hotel in London’s upscale Mayfair district. The property itself has a rich history dating back to the 1920s, though it has been fully restored to live up to its five-star rating.

Its restaurant, May Fair Kitchen, showcases 78

the best of Spanish Italian cuisine with some signature dishes from sister restaurant Monmouth Kitchen (Peruvian) and Leicester Square Kitchen (Mexican). An extensive breakfast buffet is offered every morning.

themayfairhotel.co.uk; mayfairkitchen.co.uk For a more intimate experience, book a room at 11 Cadogan Gardens, a boutique luxury hotel in the heart of Chelsea. The interiors of the Victorian-era property, which was built in the late 19th century by Lord Chelsea, reflect an unmistakable opulence inspired by the artists, writers and statesmen who once stepped through its doors. Even if you don’t stay at the hotel, it’s worth a visit to its quaint restaurant, Hans’ Bar & Grill, which opened in June 2018 and offers a seasonal menu curated by acclaimed chef Adam England. Taking inspiration from its namesake, Hans Sloane (credited for bringing cocoa to the UK), the restaurant offers a delectable menu of chocolate desserts and signature hot chocolate drinks.

SEEING GREENS Golf courses get better over timeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;after theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve received makeovers from some illustrious friends, of course. This will soon be the case for Fort Lauderdale Country Club as it commences a $3.7 million North Course renovation at the hands of golf course architect Kipp Schulties, who, over the last 20 years, has signed his name to more than 60 projects. Here, we ask him a few questions. $; '4+% 0 *#46

Which course architects do you admire?

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had the privilege of working on projects previously designed by Jack Nicklaus, Tom Fazio and Pete Dye, and I have created my own style by implementing elements of theirs.
