Sterling Silver Minaudieres
POST A COMMENT 
Tamlin & The Fall's debut capsule collection, The Space Between, joins silver, leather, hammered-chain, and feathers into a trio of sculptural clutches for the edgy, sensuous woman. Crafted to last a hundred years and designed to endure a thousand seasons, this quintessential trilogy is distilled from nature’s most enduring forms: the egg, the crystal and the shell. The egg has a dimensional
fissure that cracks open to reveal an alligator-lined interior. The crystal is a sculptural gem mined to fit in your palm. The shell boldly embraces the hand like the guard on a fencing sabre. The interpretation of these shapes emerges as a group of palm-sized couture objects, each made with over a pound of precious metal. Timeless in form, function, and matter, the minaudieres speak a refreshingly modern
language. This design collaboration between Tamlin & The Fall founder Jessamee Sanders and fellow designer Elise Ballegeer is thoroughly American in its inception. The work is conceived in a studio in upstate New York, and materializes at the hands of the finest artisans in New York City. Sanders and Ballegeer have created a signature line that is both restrained and indulgent. With an aesthetic they dub decorative minimalism, jewelry, sculpture, fashion, and natural form come together as one. The result is functional art of exceptional beauty—polished, and with a hint of mystery…Labels: Luxury

IF-Mode
POST A COMMENT 
IF-Mode by industrial designer Mark Sanders for AREAWARE is available for purchase in the USA. The IF-Mode folds in about 2 seconds
The clean and striking IF Mode is aimed at commuters of the mobile generation who, until now, may have not considered cycling or folding bikes to be an option. IF Mode is a unique product that offers a new image for people who previously thought bikes were for enthusiasts only.
IF Mode avoids oily chains, complex tube with hidden dirt traps and the clutter of traditional bicycle features. It can be used by city commuters who do not want to change their appearance into ‘bicycle warriors’ and may use public transport or their car for some of the journey. IF Mode looks at home folded up on a smart subway train or in an office, just like a sleek mp3 player or other well designed accessory in your life. It also performs on the street like any lightweight well balanced full size bike.

Mehrzeller
POST A COMMENT 
“Mehrzeller” is a new multicellular caravan. Using the online Configurator, every user sets up a design that is unique, their own layout that they can identify with. The configuration is generated by a computer using the customer’s inputs, and then the final design is done by parameters from the architects to yield an attractive and practicable result. The caravans are produced using the principles of “mass customization”: this allows both the individual wishes of the customer to be accommodated while producing the caravan with series methods.Labels: Luxury, Mehrzeller, Travel
1905 Chronograph by Gerald Genta for Ritz Fine Jew
POST A COMMENT 
In 2007, Ritz Fine Jewellery, London approached M. Gerald Genta with a view to creating a small series of timepieces that combined simple, elegant lines, the best materials and the highest possible level of finish – at the heart of each a movement that would delight even the most knowledgeable and discerning of aficionados. The result is a remarkable feat of watch making skill. Drawing inspiration from no watch that had ever gone before but rather assimilating architectural, cultural and social elements from The Ritz Hotel in London, Genta has created three ranges, each comprising a date model, a chronograph model and a tourbillon model.
Available in a choice of precious metals, the entire collection amounts to just 15 watches, each of which is limited to a numbered edition of one. The dial of each watch has purposely been left blank, free from any form of branding – allowing the collector to personalise the piece (with if desired a motif designed by Genta himself). If the dial is to be personalised, the details of what is required will be carefully considered before a lead time is confirmed. Testimony to Genta’s pride in this extraordinary work, he has for the first time allowed his signature to be engraved on each watch. This self-winding 1905 Chronograph is one of only 15 pieces in the collection. Named after the year in which construction began on hotelier Cesar Ritz's Chateau-style hotel in London's Piccadilly, this cushion-shaped design features an upper case in the form of a 'soft square'. Sapphire crystal with sapphire set winding crown in 18ct white gold (the customer has a choice of fine crocodile coloured straps on a white gold deployment clasp), it is available only through 20ltd.com and is limited to a numbered edition of one.Labels: 20ltd, Limited Edition, Luxury, Watch

Generation by Knoll, the first work chair that allows you to sit and work the way you want, previewed in the May 2009 edition of TIME Style and Design, which has a global circulation of 1.3 million readers. The magazine arrived in mailboxes in the U.S. today.
Designed by Formway Design, Generation by Knoll takes elastic design--where a product rearranges itself in response to its user--to a new level.
"This approach creates a new standard for work chair comfort by offering unrestrained movement that supports a range of natural postures and diverse work styles," says Alana Stevens, Senior Marketing Director.
Commenting on "the unique figure-eight design," TIME writer Mengly Taing states that Generation by Knoll "flexes to support the spine while allowing users to move freely to different sitting positions."
Taing's boldly illustrated feature, with a graphic photo of Generation by Knoll in uplifting Lemongrass, also quotes Knoll Design director Benjamin Pardo, who reflects, "Our inspiration was the occupant of the chair and the varied postures adopted during the workday."
Describing an important sustainable design attribute of Generation by Knoll, Taing adds that the chair "uses less material than standard office chairs."
The advanced material used to create Generation by Knoll meets Knoll "Design for the Environment Guidelines," which dictate that design for durability requires minimal use of materials, which must be non-toxic, recyclable-and or rapidly renewable materials.
Echoing the Knoll credo to help customers create inspiring workplaces where people really want to work, Taing closes her piece by musing on the Generation by Knoll aesthetic: "With options such as lemongrass green and firecracker red, the office just got more fun."
Generation by Knoll will be introduced formally on June 15 at NeoCon, the office furniture industry trade show in Chicago. For more information, visit knoll.com in the month ahead.Labels: Generation by Knoll, Knoll, Luxury

Cooper Square Hotel
POST A COMMENT 
Cooper Square Hotel is a new modern glass and steel New York City hotel located on Manhattan's Bowery in the heart of downtown. The new construction was designed by Carlos Zapata Studio. Noted Italian designer Antonio Citterio designed the interiors and furnishings are by B & B Italia. The Italian design motif extends to the guest rooms where the beds are outfitted with 400-count Italian Anichini-brand linens and comforters and the baths are tiled with Italian glass mosaics. Carlos Zapata says the inspiration for the building was a face starting small at the neck and widening upwards, with the intention of giving the building a very distinctive personality.
The 21-storey, 145-room hotel, dubbed “Downtown Luxury” by its owner/developer, has an open plan with a modern European feel. The main public spaces include a library with a bar and fireplace, an intimate screening room, and a destination restaurant, the first in New York for celebrated Los Angeles-based chef Govind Armstrong. The hotel’s interior organization and circulation plan is inspired by the small courtyards of the East village. There are several small intimate spaces on the back of the building and one can access the second floor bar without having to go into the lobby, forming a continuous loop between the many intimate spaces inside and outside the building.Labels: Cooper Square Hotel, Luxury, Travel

The daringly innovative Atmos Birth Date embodies an idea destined for a fine future, since the Atmos clock, an eternally youthful young lady born 80 years ago in the Jaeger-LeCoultre workshops, takes on a tender, mischievous appearance while losing nothing of its seductive appeal. While the horological icon with the almost perpetual mechanism continues to count off the hours and minutes of the world’s most eminent figures, it now turns into a wonderful gift when the time comes to celebrate a happy event and, according to a well-established tradition, comes in pastel pink or blue versions. For the first time within this rich collection, its base is adorned with the name of the newborn child that it will faithfully accompany through all stages of his or her life, because the Atmos movement continues to represent a challenge to mechanical laws and to the ephemeral nature of human accomplishments.Labels: Jaeger-LeCoultre, Luxury
Art in enamel with Jaeger-LeCoultre: World exclusive personalization
POST A COMMENT 
In an unprecedented challenge, Jaeger-LeCoultre has made in enamel one of the most exclusive piece of art on the case of a Reverso watch, which can be worn on the owner wrist as part of a watch!! The swivel case of the reverso allowed its owner to decorate it and gives him the absolute assurance of possessing the most complete artistically decorated work one could imagine.
A private British art collector who owns an incredibly valuable Lord Leighton original oil painting called ‘Pavonia’ wanted to personalize his Jaeger-LeCoultre reverso watch. This piece of art, one of his most precious paintings, as part of his private collection, is rarely seen in public. (The last time was at the Royal Academy in celebration of Lord Leighton’s work over a decade ago.) He asked to the Manufacture if it was possible to have a duplicate of the painting recreated on the case of his favorite watch with an Enamel.
This is an incredibly challenging task with only a handful of artisans in the world being able to create such a feat. It took 120 hours for our master enamellers to complete it. In order to celebrate this truly unique item’s arrival the new owner has agreed to let exhibit both the watch and the original Painting in the George Tarratt show room in Leicester for one week in June.
With his enamel’s specialists, Jaeger-LeCoultre is nowadays one of the rare watches
Manufacture to offer one of the oldest techniques applied to watch decoration.Labels: Art, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Luxury, Watch

Balblair Highland Single Malt Scotch whisky is a super-premium malt, distinguished by its use of hand-selected vintages and devotion to detail.
Renowned for its contemporary appeal and sumptuous taste, Balblair is firmly focused on international luxury markets and is enjoying continued global success amongst discerning consumers.
At Balblair Distillery, on the shores of the Dornoch Firth in Edderton, Tain, each vintage is carefully chosen by distillery manager John MacDonald. Great attention is paid to the selection process and only the most excellent whiskies – those that have reached the peak of their perfection – are picked and named after the year of their casking. Those vintages currently available - Balblair 1975, Balblair 1989 and Balblair 1997 – are each unique but share the whisky’s core style: vanilla notes, rich fruit characters, spicy tones and a creamy, smooth finish.
To complement its mantra of ‘originality, good taste and fine quality’, Balblair has been building partnerships with outward-looking, like-minded brands including Mackintosh Rainwear, wall-paper and textile designers Timorous Beasties and Scottish, contemporary artist, JoLoMo in an effort to shift traditional stereotypes of Scotland both in the UK and abroad.
Furthermore, Balblair’s innovative approach and commitment to excellence has been recognized with a plethora of awards, including Gold and Gold Best in Class at the International Wine and Spirits Competition 2008 and Gold at the Scotch Whisky Masters 2008. Balblair also contributed significantly to Inver House (its parent company)’s win as “Distiller of the Year” at this year’s Icons of Whisky awards, beating hundreds of regional and global finalists.

Ducati North America have announced the latest additions to its iconic Monster line of “naked” sport bikes, the Monster 1100 and 1100 S models.
The arrival of the new Monster 1100 and 1100 S models increases the displacement of the redesigned Monster family, which defines the naked motorcycle and has been staking its claim worldwide as the new icon of Italian excellence.
The 'less-is-more' philosophy behind all Monsters underlines Ducati's never-ending pursuit of genuinely compact, high performance motorcycles; but these new models have succeeded in being even more 'pared down' than their predecessors. The Monster 1100 weighs only 371 lbs (369 lbs for the S version), making it by far the lightest bike in its category.
The new Monster 1100 design perfectly balances sports performance, riding pleasure and stunning looks. With its single-sided aluminum swingarm, high-spec componentry, race-oriented chassis and 15 years of evolution, the Monster 1100 now takes its place at the head of the Monster family.
The Monster 1100 S is a pure concentrate of light weight, power, design and exclusivity. The 'S' features fully adjustable 43mm titanium nitride coated Ohlins forks and progressive Ohlins rear shock absorber with adjustable pre-load and return damping. Carbon fiber cam belt covers, silencer guards and front fender reduce weight by a further 2.2 lbs. The distinctive gold five spoke wheels of the Monster 1100 S give it the elegant style and same sporting look as historical Ducati race bikes.
Both versions of the new Monster 1100 come with removable single seat covers and neat micro-bikini fairings; and are powered by the charismatic two-valve 1100cc Desmodromic twin-cylinder engine that boasts 95hp at 7500rpm and an impressive 79.5 lb/ft of torque at 6000rpm.
The base selling price for the Monster 1100 is $11,995.Labels: DUCATI MONSTER 1100, Luxury, Motoring, Travel

THE LEATHER BOOK
POST A COMMENT 
This anthology chronicles the history and transformations of this fabric through 400 illustrated pages. In this informative, entertaining homage, one can relive the grand classics and extreme permutations of this “second skin.” An amazing journey from prehistoric caves to the houses of haute couture, Leather recounts the history of man's most versatile fabric, featuring such iconic pieces as the black leather jacket, aviator gear, and Inuits’ parkas, as well as staples of the contemporary wardrobe.
Leather has been covering human bodies since hefty pelts first protected prehistoric cave-dwellers. Since then, we have chiseled leather into an infinite number of different forms, and today, top designers create stunning leather pieces crafted as finely as precious jewels. A living material that is sculpted by the body's own habits, leather has run the gamut of fashion styles in the 20th century, and is able to represent innumerable attitudes, from the tough virility of the Hells Angels to the sleek elegance of a smooth thigh boot.Labels: Books, Luxury, THE LEATHER BOOK
