Luxury can have multiple connotations. Luxury of objects, economic luxury, luxury of space, time, breathability, of being one with nature… Our cover story – yet another project by the very talented Fran Silvestre Architects from Spain, speaks volumes about the latter. Working towards minimum intervention in the environment, he designs a home sandwiched between two large horizontal planes that hold within their bosom a warm home and hearth absolutely in sync with the immediate surrounds. That the location conforms to luxurious villas and pursuits only, validates the all-seeing glass walls. But the point to be noted is the use of minimal internal partitions and water bodies to augment the magic of literally living amidst nature!
While we ponder over these dream-like spaces, we come to reality with our trend-driven and style-centric homes – vibrant soft furnishings, plush materiality, urbane chaos that is so emphatic of a modern home… even as each new interior communicates a fresh thought, a new idea, reinvents yet another element of design.
Enjoy the issue and the monsoons! Catch you next week with more global fare…
Warm regards,
