IWC UNVEILS NEW AMPAIGN WITH BRAND AMBASSADOR EILEEN GU
11
Following the successful launch of new Pilot’s Watches, IWC Schaffhausen has unveiled an advertising campaign featuring Eileen Gu, its latest brand ambassador. Eighteen-year-old Gu is a rising freestyle skiing star, a sought-after fashion model and an aspiring university student. She uses her voice to drive change in her sport, aiming to inspire and empower the younger generation across the globe. The new campaign pairs the skiing prodigy with the new Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41. This modern take on a classic design has a stainless-steel case in a compact 41-mm size, blue or green dial and an in-house movement. Exemplifying the performance, innovation and technical excellence of IWC’s legendary Pilot’s Watches, the Chronograph 41 also features a quick- change strap system, enabling the wearer to adapt their watch swiftly to different surroundings. With such a contemporary and versatile design, it’s the ideal choice for adventurers, athletes, fashion pioneers, and bright young talents, just like Gu. Shot in a skateboard park and featuring action-packed imagery of Gu on a board, the new campaign is candid and challenging. In the TV spot, footage of Gu skating in the park and on the slopes is combined with her talking directly to the camera, asking the viewer to rethink preconceptions and push for their dreams, whatever they may be. She explains, “Our stage is not the future. Our stage is now”, as she speaks to her modern and multi-faceted generation. A “ s the youngest member of the IWC family, Eileen has already accomplished more than many others manage in a lifetime. We are so happy to partner with Eileen on this new campaign to inspire the younger generation to break the boundaries, fully express themselves and pursue their dreams,” explains Franziska Gsell, Chief Marketing Officer, IWC Schaffhausen. In the campaign, Gu demonstrates perfectly the talent and determination she relies on in her career, expressing herself with confidence and passion. Joining the world of freestyle skiing when she was just eight, Gu has broken one record after another over the past decade, most recently becoming the first woman to land a forward double cork 1440 in 2021. She is currently enjoying an extraordinary competitive run, taking first place six times and second place twice in her last eight World Cup competitions in the US and Canada and becoming the first skier ever to win four consecutive freestyle World Cup competitions. Eileen’s commitment stretches far beyond her achievements in sport or modeling. From the start of her career, she has made it a priority to be a voice of change and an activist for women’s empowerment, as well as a positive role model for the younger generation. She aims to inspire millions of young people to pursue their dreams and live meaningful lives a goal this new campaign perfectly encapsulates.

OMEGA & THE BEIJING 2022 OLYMPICS
Beijing 2022 will mark a special milestone for OMEGA as the Swiss brand celebrates its 30th occasion as Official Timekeeper of the Olympic Games. For exactly 90 years, OMEGA has been a leading name in sports measurement, recording the dreams of the world’s best athletes, and continually developing the technologies that every result depends on. In fact, when OMEGA began its role in 1932, the company fulfilled its task with just one watchmaker and 30 stopwatches. This year in Beijing, the operation will entail a team of 300 timekeepers and 200 tonnes of equipment, proving just how much this vital role has grown, and how the standards of excellence have been continually pushed. Today, OMEGA delivers a level of precision that is almost unquestionable. In tribute to its role as Official Timekeeper, OMEGA has launched the Seamaster Aqua Terra Beijing 2022. The 41mm watch has been crafted in stainless steel, with a matching bracelet and domed sapphire crystal on the face. Most noticeably, OMEGA has brought the theme of winter to life by introducing a white ceramic dial with a frost-finish pattern. Turning the watch over reveals a stamped Beijing 2022 emblem on the caseback, as well as the Aqua Terra’s familiar waved edging. Behind this sits the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8900, which once again reaches the industry’s highest certified standard of precision and magnetic resistance. Sports fans who choose this Seamaster will find inside a distinctive Olympic Games presentation box, along with OMEGA’s famous 5-year warranty.

TUMI Recruits Elite Footballer Son Heung-Min to Launch the Next Generation of Alpha Bravo
MARIA TASH LAUNCHES LAPIS LUIS COLLECTION
TUMI launches the latest evolution of its iconic Alpha Bravo collection with celebrated international footballer, Son Heung-Min. The Tottenham Hotspur F.C. forward and captain of the South Korea national football team stars in TUMI’s Life in Forward Motion campaign carrying key pieces from the new Alpha Bravo collection. Focused on modularity, sustainability, and durability, the collection comprises over two dozen entirely new styles including backpacks, slings, chest packs, briefs, duffels and crossbodies.
15
Regarded by many as one of the sport’s top players, Son Heung-Min caps an award-winning start to 2022. In early January, Son received his seventh Best Footballer in Asia award, marking his fifth consecutive year winning the title. This honor is the latest accolade in the athlete’s decorated career. Son became the highest-scoring Asian player in the Champion’s League in 2019, and the first Asian player to score more than 50 goals in the Premier League in 2020. This year, Son is set to play a key role in South Korea’s run in the FIFA World Cup. With TUMI’s Life in Forward Motion campaign, fans can catch Son at the top of his game on and off the pitch with the Liaison Tote, Logistics Backpack, Navigation Backpack, Platoon Sling and the Mason Duffel. Son Heung-Min comments: “I've been a fan of TUMI for years, so I am excited to join the TUMI Crew as a brand ambassador. Being a professional footballer, travelling is naturally a big part of my life. It means I need versatile and reliable bags when I’m off the field—and TUMI delivers, especially the Alpha Bravo collection which was made for non-stop lives like mine.” First introduced in 2010, the original Alpha Bravo collection marked a pivotal moment in TUMI’s history with the debut of its modern, utilitarian bags. The latest generation of Alpha Bravo continues this lineage with brand new styles that have evolved to fit active lifestyles that take us everywhere from the office to the outdoors and beyond. Many of these feature a main body fabric made from recycled materials. The lining of almost all styles is also made with recycled materials and the built-to-last quality of the collection further enhances its sustainability. As seen on Son Heung-Min, the Logistics Backpack has a flap-lid silhouette that adjusts to fit your haul, from days in the boardroom to weekends out exploring. The Logistics Backpack simplifies the packing experience and maximizes carry capacity. Ideal for daily commutes, the Navigation Backpack is a well-proportioned medium-sized style built for both work and pleasure. Tech-inclined travelers will appreciate the expandable bag’s securely padded laptop and tablet compartments as well as smartly organized interior and exterior pockets. The Liaison Tote delivers with dual cargo pockets and quick-release buckles. A spacious interior and adjustable straps make the tote easy to carry by hand or over the shoulder. For those who prefer a duffel style, the Mason Duffel answers the call with a roomy silhouette. Grab handles with daisy chain details amp up the functionality, as does the expandable shoe compartment with a water-resistant lining. For carrying lighter loads, the Platoon Sling is a casual and stylish hands-free bag ready for exploration. Select Alpha Bravo bags will be available as a unique capsule that takes the military inspiration to the next level, made in a durable ripstop that takes its cues from rugged parachute fabric. Featured styles from the capsule include the Dynamic Backpack, a streamlined and compact backpack that helps you stay organized. The Recruit Chest Pack is a convertible 3-in-1 chest pack that’s easily worn as a waist pack or a sling, making it the perfect on-the-go style to secure necessities. With its distinctive rolltop styling and speed clip closure, the Ally Backpack stands out with flexible storage that can easily be adapted at a moment’s notice. January, 2022

Please introduce yourself to our readers.
Hi, I am Karishma Kotak. An Actor, performer, model, anchor, or entrepreneur. Choose what you want to identify me as. Here to entertain my audience and get all your love.
Please tell us about your education.
Well, my childhood was in boarding school in Panchgani and when I started school back in England it was between South Africa and London. My father had his own business so we kept traveling between the two countries. I was very blessed to see so much of the world at such a young age.
What are your favorite childhood memories?
18
My childhood memories would be playing with the let's, going to my aunt's house where she grew her own food. I was just one with nature there. We would bring fresh fruits and veggies from the fields and cook them and I would listen to stories all day. It was a great time. I had a ball growing up
When and how did you get into modeling?
I started young when I was in college. I got offers and took them as they came.
And how did you get a start in acting and movies?
I started getting modeling offers while I was studying and then I got to be the kingfisher calendar girl. That was a major breakthrough and then one thing led to another. Bigg boss happened and the flood gates opened for a plethora of opportunities.
Which was your best acting experience of all the movies you have worked in so far?
I can't pick one, to be honest. Each one is unique and dear to me differently. I won't get the ups without the downs. So I won't be able to pick one.
Tell us about some of your upcoming movie projects.
There are two movies I am currently
shooting. I am hosting a few tournaments and then there is the Curtly and Karishma show which is an ongoing thing.
Name your dream role you’d like to do one day? I would love to play Penelope Cruz" part from Vicky Christina Barcelona. I just loved that movie.
How was your experience?
BIG
BOSS
It was a roller coaster. You get down and then you have to pick yourself up. I met some amazing humans and created great relations. I won't change a thing if I were to do it again.
You are now seen actively promoting fitness and sports. What led you to be a fitness influencer?
I want to inspire people to have a healthier and fitter life. I like working out and since I am followed on social media, why not spread the message. So I would be doing that and I have been at it. It's a great time to share knowledge and create your own well-being community and we all get to grow together. A total win-win for everyone.
We heard that you will be presenting the Cricket league in Canada. Can you tell us more about this and your love for cricket?
Yes, I would be hosting the GT20 Canada which is their IPL equivalent. It's a great tournament with some legends in it. I watched cricket from the 2000s. We would go to watch a game sometimes at Lords or Oval. I loved the way the Indians competed and won on so many occasions away from home and that drove me to delve even more into it.
What motivated you to start your own sports show “Karishma and Curtly show”? I love cricket and I am a great admirer of fast bowling who is better than Sir Curtly to have as a co-host. So when the opportunity came, I took it straight on.

January, 2022
What other projects are you now working on?
There are a couple of movies I am working on, a music video and I would be hosting a few mega-events.
Three things that make you happy? My home, my family, and my pet.
Do you have any tricks or routines to stay healthy and beautiful?
I do a quick yoga routine and I meditate. That gives me perspective and that helps me attain good levels of health both physical and mental.
Do you have any other secret talent(s)? I can make wine disappear.
What is your message for your fans in the middle-east? 20
I love you all and your love matters the most. I love coming here and hope to see you all soon.

KARL LAGERFELD SS22 Collection
28
KARL LAGERFELD is pleased to announce its Spring-Summer 2022 collection. Building on Karl’s fondness for new beginnings, the new collection invokes a sense of a renewal and cultural reset, while celebrating life in its purest form. Seen as an upgrade to the worlds’ circularity, the collection, known as ‘LIFE 2.0’, draws its inspiration from the basic natural elements: Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. This influence translates across the collection through the selection of prints, fabrics, and color palette, while maintaining a sleek rock aesthetic that offers newness, confidence, and above all, evolution. The first selection includes a wide range of warm-weather styles with eye-catching prints and elegant, coordinated looks and on-point separates. Inspired by the elements of Earth and Air, this concept comes across through the striking color choice and selection of prints. For womenswear, seasonal patterns include nature-inspired, florals used on lightweight parkas and silk dresses, as well as an exotic zebra print, showcased on a selection of casual and more sophisticated items. Key looks include an ultra-marine lightweight tailored coat, while the sleek KL- monogram pattern is showcased on select pieces and coordinated pieces. A sleek, faux leather shirt and matching shorts, as well as a faux leather, sleeveless jumpsuit stand out in the assortment. Embroidery techniques and perforated detailing are prominently featured on others, with broderie anglaise pieces, with a true KARL twist, crafted from organic cotton. The selection also includes sharp, seasonal outerwear, knitwear designs, a transformable trench, and tailored looks that work well in or out of the office. www.theciin.com

Regina, a work of art that is exquisitely Mouawad
36
Every great work of art has an origin. Now, Mouawad invites you to journey beyond the exceptional features and incredible innovation of the Regina Emerald and Diamond Suite to discover who and what gave life to this true masterpiece. Meaning ‘queen’ in Latin, the Regina Emerald and Diamond Suite exudes an unforgettable presence, evoking themes of power, beauty and freedom through its extraordinary gemstones and innovative design. The crowning glory, literally and metaphorically, of this suite is the necklace, featuring 54.03 carat of octagonal vivid green Colombian emeralds, whose lush hues are haloed by 95.43 carat of brilliant white diamonds. Yet, even more incredible is that the necklace transforms into a crown, giving its wearer the choice of whether to adorn her neck or wear this breathtaking creation as a regal headpiece. No matter how the necklace is worn, it is beautifully complemented by the bracelet, earrings and ring that complete this suite. In total, 90.34 carat of emeralds and 160.23 carat of diamonds were acquired through a rigorous process that ensures all gemstones are ethically sourced, before being brought to life by the hands of Mouawad designers, artists, and craftsmen in an innovative design. To create the Regina masterpiece, Mouawad’s experts united their exceptional talent to leverage innovation, technical prowess, and sheer creativity. Prized by royalty throughout the centuries, emeralds take center stage in the Regina design. Sourcing an outstanding selection of octagonal vivid green Colombian emeralds, Mouawad expert designers imagined a suite in which the unparalleled green of the emeralds would be highlighted by an exceptional selection of diamonds. For this exceptional work of art, innovation was key to the design, with the necklace’s ability to transform into a crown imbuing the Regina suite with the power to dazzle beyond compare. In the first video launched featuring the Regina Suite, the focus is on the mastery of these Mouawad craftsmen, revealing their roles in elevating this creation to true masterpiece status and in perpetuating Mouawad’s passion for ‘Crafting the Extraordinary’ since 1890. A second video focuses on the ability of Regina to reflect the wearer’s mood and emotions, whether as a crown or necklace, imparting a feeling that is exquisitely Mouawad. www.theciin.com

HALM - The Timeless Edition A celebration of sustainable luxury
44
Contemporary and timeless in aesthetics, the collections are trans-seasonal, interchangeable, and complementary to each other, this gives the buyer the creative freedom to update their HALM bag in a personal curated style through unique combinations of new straps and small leather goods. Each and every HALM bag is a numbered and signed limited edition piece. Timeless quality and functionality are the core of HALM, complimented by distinct Scandinavian aesthetics and design, relaxed understated luxe, and a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’. Each silhouette has been specifically designed to embrace the beauty and characteristics of 100% genuine leather and its unique natural grain. Initial inspiration, sketching, development, specifications and technical drawings, production of prototypes and further samples are all carefully considered and executed in Dubai. Drawing on perpetual inspiration from art, culture, architecture, design and nature, HALM’s aim is to create and share their vision of contemporary, timeless design. HALM is where quality meets versatility, through silhouettes exuding an effortless laid-back style and attitude that transcends trends and seasons, using sumptuous textures and a rich palette of classic neutrals and vibrant tones. Working against throwaway fashion, mass production, ephemeral trends, valuing the traditional talent of artisans and true craftsmen and women, cherishing the authenticity of exquisite natural leather hides, appreciating a beautifully crafted bag that will evolve year after year more gracefully. “Having been brought up with the approach that you should try to buy the highest quality you can afford and invest in timeless pieces, I couldn’t quite find what I was looking for - the right combination of function, visuals, feel, materials, process, and origins involved in making a bag...‘What, Where and How’ is so important to us. After years of research, design development, learning the trade (and buying and dissecting a lot of handbags!) ...HALM came about as a limited-edition line of luxury genuine leather bags.” Hanna Ransjö (Founder + Creative Director) www.theciin.com

Isabel Marant Unveils Pre-Fall 2022 Collection
52
Under the influence of the 90’s, the Isabel Marant Pre-Fall 2022 collection paves the way for a minimalistic winter. The collection focuses on a selection of eclectic essentials shaping the slender Isabel Marant silhouette with a boyish look. High-waisted pants only show the metallic tip of this season’s boots while legs are revealed under miniskirts and sleek mesh bodysuits. Their millefiori signature motif, inspired by the craft of glass mosaic, brings psychedelia to a collection in autumnal hues punctuated with acid pink, pale yellow and ultraviolet purple. Blue shows up on bleached denim pieces worn in total look. The Isabel Marant girl, her hands dipped in her pockets, impresses with her nonchalance and the way she mixes styles and genres. She wears a vintage silk dress underneath a men’s oversized shoulder jacket and matches a pair of jeans with a transparent top crafted from draped fabric which subtly outlines the shape of a corset. It’s all about the 90’s. www.theciin.com

MARITIME INSPIRED LOOKS BY GENNY SS22 For Spring/Summer 2022 Genny’s Creative Director, Sara Cavazza Facchini, embraces inspiration from the Greek islands.
74
A marine theme influences the details of the collection, where classic shades of white and blue are juxtaposed with vibrant touches of red and metallic sparkles. Evoking sailors uniform, precious trimmings and metal buttons punctuate the shorts paired with micro tops and blazers, as well as the vests cut in sinuous silhouettes and sailor-style jumpsuits. An athletic vibe is also injected into the collection via skin-tight cycling shorts and cropped jackets for a new urban look. Tie-dye effects enhance the relaxed mood of shirts and mini dresses, and evening sparkles decorates maxi sequin dresses with iridescent shades or sensual cut-out designs. Woven leather heeled sandals elongate the silhouette, while glossy leather bags with tone-on-tone orchid studs complete the look of this sophisticated traveler. www.theciin.com

ROGER DUBUIS EXCALIBUR MONOBALANCIER
80
Intriguing. Accomplished. Disruptive. Bearing all of the hallmarks of a work of art, Roger Dubuis is proud to unveil the Excalibur Monobalancier. Crafted from Mineral Composite Fibre (MCF) to enshrine this skeleton automatic monobalancier in a pure-white case, it embodies the House’s commitment to non-conformity, capturing the attention of all those dazzled by its clean whiteness. For those who choose to blaze their own trail, to show what happens when rules are reinvented and creativity is unleashed, it is a timepiece that proves the only limit for Hyper Horology is one’s own imagination. www.theciin.com
81 A PURE-WHITE MASTERPIECE
Inspired by similar materials used in aerospace, MCF balances lightness with rigidity to enhance the 42mm timepiece into a new work of art, with a case, bezel and crown crafted from this pure-white, high-technology material. Representing the House’s technical mastery and its desire to push boundaries, MCF is engineered from 99.95% silica and made via a Sheet Molding Compound (SMC) process that enables freedom of play, new possibilities, and the creation of intricate designs thanks to its sturdy structure 2.5 times lighter than ceramic and 13 per cent lighter than SMC carbon. Constructed with peak wristwear comfort in mind while never forgetting the importance of standout aesthetics, Roger Dubuis specifically developed the material to remain stable and highly resistance to UV, artificial and natural light, while the addition of pigments deepens its whiteness. To maintain the all-white aesthetic, a white rubber strap is the perfect accompaniment to complete the look of this truly striking watch.
A SIGNATURE SKELETON
Capturing the two sides of the integrated Manufacture, the Excalibur Monobalancier infuses the tradition of horological craftsmanship with a daringly disruptive attitude. The skeleton automatic monobalancier is one of the proudest examples of this. With a transparent view of its self-winding movement held directly on the inimitable Roger Dubuis star, the RD820SQ calibre features a skeleton microrotor reduced to its strict essence at 11 o’clock. Specifically developed to be as efficient as a full-size rotor, its construction ensures the watch winds perfectly to guarantee 60 hours of power reserve. Creating a rotor in such a small size and within the signature skeleton is an accomplishment mastered by few. Sealed with the prestigious Poinçon de Genève, with every one of the components carefully finished by hand at the Manufacture in Geneva, this impressive feat of creative engineering is much like any masterpiece and therefore limited to 88 pieces only.

Robert Street Residences Taylor Smyth Architects Toronto, Canada
106
Two adjacent contemporary houses in a Victorian Toronto neighbourhood, designed by the same architect and for the same client, subtly respond to the local vernacular and to each other, while expressing their own unique characters. Designed and constructed over a span of 10 years, the first house was completed in 2011, and the second house in 2021. www.theciin.com
107
January, 2022
108
The 3,000 square foot residences are located on a unique street in the heart of downtown Toronto, which is a heritage district with mostly historically-designated houses. Here, approval to build is overseen by Heritage Preservation Services, which generally mandates a traditional style. However, the existing houses on both lots were 1960’s bungalows with no architectural merit. www.theciin.com
109
January, 2022
110 Both the client and architectural partner, Michael Taylor, felt that trying to build a new house to replicate the style of the old houses on the street would not be successful, nor was it appropriate to attempt. Instead, he and his design team set out to find ways to reference the surrounding Victorian vernacular through scale, proportion, and colour. A distinctive feature of many of the old houses on the block was a vertical gable and front porch. This inspired the configuration of the front façade of the first house with a projecting two storey bay window that picks up on the proportion of these gables, and the inclusion of a front porch. However, instead of treating these as two distinct elements, the porch and the bay window are unified into one composition that folds up from the porch overhang to become the surrounding frame of the bay window. The second house also has a porch that continues the sequence of porches of the adjacent cottage-style Victorian houses. The tall second floor windows are each surrounded by a projecting metal frame, and set into a red brick façade. Randomly sized, they evoke the dormer windows of the neighbouring houses in a contemporary composition. One of the challenges was to hide the garage doors, since there are no other garage doors facing the street. The solution for both houses was to clad the surfaces of the ground floor façade—the garage door, walls, front door, and the soffit of the porch—with the same material. The team sourced a panel product called Trespa, a high-pressure compact laminate panel based on thermosetting resins, homogeneously reinforced with wood-based fibers with a printed surface layer that looks like oak and is virtually indistinguishable from real wood, except that it is maintenance free. The client acted as the general contractor for both houses, as well as contributing to the interior design. Her intention was to occupy the first house and then sell it once the second house was complete and ready for her to move into. Lessons learned from the design and construction of the first house were applied to the second house, including design features to improve energy efficiency. The ground floor features in-floor radiant heating, which provides significant energy savings during the winter months. Flat roofs were built with continuous insulation on top of the deck, rather than with insulation in-between joists, enabling a superior level of insulation and eliminating thermal bridging. The front driveway features a minimal footprint (2 parallel strips), built with permeable pavers to maximize natural water absorption. Both houses are organized around a central skylit atrium with abundant natural light, and have custom canopies above the terraces, which maximize passive heat gains in the winter, while also providing shade in the summer. www.theciin.com

BREAKFAST O’CLOCK! by travel-expert José Berrocoso
URBAN RIVERSIDE CHIC
114
Overlooking the River Limmat, Storchen Zürich, member of Preferred Hotels, is a stylish and intimate hub for exploring the downtown area. The hotel has welcomed guests for over 660 years and blends historical character with contemporary style. w w w. p r e fe r r e d h o t e l s . c o m The only hotel on the River Limmat in central Zurich. Storchen strikes up from the water in a peachy collage of leaded windowpanes and striped sunshades. To its rear lie the old town’s elegant rows of designer labels, as well as sleepy square Weinplatz and nearby Gemüsebrucke, which hosts a small farmers’ market on Saturdays. Across the river is the twin-spired Grossmunster, worth climbing for its 360-degree views. A fun way to arrive is the 15-minute boat ride from the main station/Landesmuseum to the hotel’s pier. Storchen has been welcoming guests since 1357, but its gentrified heritage is cloaked in the luxe of a multi-million renovation that elevated the hotel to Zurich’s five-star elite – like the ugly duckling emerging as a, well, stork. It's now all colossal vases, marble flooring and a mauve through dove grey palette; there's tangible polish. Look closely, and the motifs are interpretations of the great white birds the hotel takes its name from. There’s an eerie sweep of a wing in paintwork here, and pleated brass as feathers there – as well as plentiful openings onto the river you can sit beside and watch real storks flying past. River-facing La Rotisserie is the setting for breakfast – a pleasant offering of Bircher muesli in jam jars, breads and patisseries, plus several à la carte options – and evening meals. The menu, which errs towards the traditional in dishes such as beef with fries, has a nice seasonal focus and some vegan options. The showpiece is Barchetta, a glass-fronted café-cum-bar that stretches from the square along the river and is often full of locals. Its live jazz provides a sophisticated ambiance in which to enjoy a cocktail. There is also a venerable cigar lounge with a concave wooden ceiling, which specialises in cigars from esteemed local supplier Wagner Tabak. www.theciin.com

LAMBORGHINI COUNTACH LPI 800-4 ON THE ROAD FOR THE FIRST TIME
116
www.theciin.com
117
From the first to the last edition, three generations to a timeless icon celebrate together
January, 2022
118
For the first time since its unveiling at Pebble Beach on August 13, the Lamborghini Countach LPI 8004 has taken to the road. On this special occasion, the brand-new super sports car was accompanied by two of its most important predecessors: the first Countach LP 400 and the last 25th Anniversary Countach produced. The dynamic debut, together with two protagonists of the company’s historic collection, provided some extraordinary and unprecedented images. The Countach LPI 800-4 produces a total output of 814 hp; is powered by a Lamborghini 6.5-litre V12 engine, delivering 780 hp, combined with a 48-volt electric motor mounted directly on the gearbox, which provides an additional 34 hp of power for instant response and increased performance. The electric motor is powered by a supercapacitor that gives three times more power than a lithium-ion battery of equal weight.
www.theciin.com
119
The car will be produced in a limited edition of just 112 units, all of which were already sold before its presentation. The number of units is a reference to "LP 112", the project name used internally during the development of the original Lamborghini Countach. Deliveries of the Countach LPI 800-4 will start from the first quarter of 2022 to customers around the world, who will have the privilege of driving a piece of automotive history reinvented for the future.

TAKING OFF
by travel-expert José Berrocoso
IT FEELS LIKE HOME! Set in the heart of the Spanish capital city’s distinguished Salamanca district, the reimagined icon, now Rosewood Villa Magna, represents a milestone for the brand as well as Madrid’s hospitality landscape.

www.rosewoodhotels.com www.theciin.com
It happens every time. You arrive in Madrid and think, “What a great atmosphere!”. There’s something in the air, an energy that invigorates you and fills you with positive emotions. Maybe it’s the sun, or the warmth of its people, but whatever it is, you want to explore it right away. Madrid is home to some of the world’s most luxurious hotels and, following a comprehensive refurbishment and redesign, Villa Magna has officially debuted under the ultra-luxury Rosewood Hotels & Resorts flag. Located on Madrid's Paseo de la Castellana boulevard, amidst the city’s finest shopping, dining and cultural attractions, the historic property has been a local landmark since 1972. Rosewood Villa Magna offers easy access to cultural and historical destinations such as the Thyssen-Bornemisza, Prado and Reina Sofia Museums and the “Landscape of Light,” a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Madrid is a city where luxury is synonymous with quality, design, detail and passion and this is evident in the plethora of boutiques and studios showcasing home-grown brands and products. Spanish architect Ramón de Arana led the remodel of its façade and entryway via a striking staircase and reflecting pools that draw attention to the centuries old, 100-foot-high cedar and carob trees. The gardens have been transformed by landscape designer Gregorio Marañón to maximize green spaces and include many species original to the old Anglada Palace. Australian firm BAR Studio infused a new, contemporary character and subtle references to traditional Spanish architecture, art, design and culture through the patterns, fabrics, materials and color palettes. The hotel’s extensive art collection was selected and commissioned by English firm ArtLink. Rosewood Villa Magna comprises 154 accommodations, consisting of 101 guestrooms, 49 suites and four signature suites. The exterior façade frames each guestroom with an avant-garde touch, while inside, a chromatic color palette provides a muted background with views overlooking the Paseo de la Castellana. Namely, fragrant bath amenities by Maison Caulieres (eco-friendly traveler may be pleased to note that the shampoo, body wash, conditioner and body lotion came in large pump jars), linen by Rivolta Carmignani and treats like Marshall speakers, Nespresso machines with plenty of capsules, artsy coffe table books and French brand Palais des Thés tea bags. Named after and inspired by the original Anglada Palace, Anglada House is the hotel’s largest suite, located on the top floor and offers two bedrooms, dedicated living and dining rooms, a private gym and sauna and an expansive private terrace. Also located there is Salamanca House, which includes a bedroom, living room, dining room, dressing room and full bathroom. It can also be combined with adjacent rooms to create up to a four-bedroom accommodation and a large private terrace stretching 1,500-square-feet. An ode to the large and historic cedar trees that surround the hotel, Cedros House has large windows providing natural light over a spacious living and dining room, two bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, and a separate powder room. The two Castellana Suites offer dedicated sleeping and living spaces complemented by views of the Paseo de la Castellana.

AN UNEXPECTED GASTRONOMIC EXPERIENCE The hotel’s four distinct dining outlets come together to create the city’s newest and most discerning destination for inspired culinary experiences, delightful to all palates, for all occasions. Each outlet and offering references local influences, with a focus on unmatched quality and service and menus committed to sustainability and the freshest ingredients. From authentic Spanish tapas on the terraces and in the gardens, to casual business lunches and post-work cocktails, to formal events and celebratory evenings out, there are countless opportunities for guests to enjoy exceptional food and beverage with friends and family. Headlining the hotel’s food and beverage program as its signature restaurant, Amós is helmed by Michelin-starred chef Jesús Sánchez and is poised to quickly establish itself as a highlight of Madrid’s culinary landscape. Revolving around an eye-catching open kitchen, Las Brasas de Castellana is the hotel’s all day dining destination, serving everything from classic tapas and small plates to more elaborate meals highlighting the quality of Madrid’s meats, fish and vegetables.
122
The dedicated bar and lounge concept, Tarde.O was meticulously designed to reflect the warmth and spirit of an English club through an elevated atmosphere that is equal parts cultivated, casual and cool. Here, guests are invited to indulge in a wide variety of carefully selected national and international premium spirits, including an extensive collection of gins and traditional Spanish vermouths. The space extends outside onto a year-round, openair terrace, Courtyard, that serves the same delectable libations in a verdant garden setting. For those looking for a quick bite or refreshment, the hotel’s picturesque patisserie Flor y Nata serves coffee, pastries, traditional afternoon tea and light lunch and dinner, to be enjoyed in the cozy space or on the go.
