A micro-hotel within a factory, a grand courtyard inside a storied Milanese building: this is the Mua Mua Hotel, a project from Tom Dixon's Design Research Studio. Born as a temporary showcase for Dixon's collections during Milan Design Week, it has since opened its doors as a permanent hotel.
Purroy represents something important in contemporary tile design. She is multidisciplinary by necessity and conviction, committed to keeping centuries-old ceramic craftsmanship in dialogue with modern digital techniques. For Purroy, luxury means care, not cost, and that conviction runs through every firing, every layer of gold, every surface that leaves her studio.
The new 101 Secrets is built around a rather elegant refusal to show off the one thing a watch is supposed to show. Time, kept quietly. Jaeger-LeCoultre has been doing that for nearly a century, and it still does it better than most. We love it because, for once, the bracelet is the point and the watch is the reward.
What connects all of these estates isn't a single architectural language or a wine style. It's a shared conviction: that the place where wine is made and experienced should tell the same story as what ends up in the bottle. At the best ones, the building, the landscape, and the glass feel like three chapters of the same thing.
The Julius Prague is one of those rare hotels that works for everyone without feeling generic. The design crowd will appreciate Matteo Thun's interiors. The food traveller will find a kitchen that earns its reputation. Anyone staying longer than a few nights will be grateful for the apartment-style rooms, which make a real difference once you stop performing “hotel guest” and start actually settling in.
London-born and bred, Alice Cicolini’s fascination with India began in childhood, sneaking glimpses of Jewel in the Crown with one eye open, pretending to be asleep as her mother watched. The vivid colors, the grandeur, the elephants; she was enchanted.

The clamour for eco-friendly, sustainable materials is reaching an all-time high, and at the forefront of this movement is an innovative Mexican textile enterprise ready to disrupt the fashion industry. Immerse yourself in the inspiring tale of Adrián López Velarde and Marte Cazarez, the trailblazing geniuses behind Desserto.
Niemeyer built everything she has from a place of personal conviction. She made what she wanted because what she wanted did not exist. Decades later, in a museum designed to ask questions about the future, the result of that conviction filled a runway and felt, in every sense, like something that will last.
There are brands that take decades to earn that word and never quite get there. Martin got there by refusing to make fashion that could have come from anywhere else. Every material, silhouette, cultural reference points back to the same place: a country far more complex and far more beautiful than the version the world has always been sold. Misci is the correction. And it is only just getting started.
