Porsche Design eyewear heritage meets sports car DNA in new 2020 Collection

Exclusive lifestyle brand Porsche Design is known for offering an extension of the Porsche lifestyle both on and off the road, and eyewear is one of the best embodiments of that philosophy. With the launch of the new 2020 sunglasses collection, Porsche Design is tapping into its rich brand heritage and reimagining one of its most legendary styles, originally designed by Professor Ferdinand Alexander Porsche in 1978. The result: the P'8928, the first square-shaped aviator shades with an interchangeable lens mechanism. But, it is not just about the past, another highlight of this season's collection is the P'8685 Hexagon Gold Limited Edition: highly-engineered sunglasses infused with true sports car DNA and strictly limited to 500 models worldwide.

Ever since Porsche Design unveiled the brand's inaugural sunglasses in 1978, the P'8478, the world's first sunglasses with an interchangeable lens mechanism, the brand has stayed true to its iconic design philosophy to optimize function. Extraordinary design and quality materials without any frills or excessive ornamentation.  Applying the same vision and design process that led to the legendary Porsche 911, allowed F. A. Porsche to bring a new perspective to the eyewear segment that caught the eye of many – including true Porsche enthusiasts as well as notable celebrities. 

Iconic: P'8928 – a design icon reborn
The P'8478 were the first glasses to offer an interchangeable lens mechanism that allowed the lenses to be easily changed based on lighting conditions – or personal taste. The P'8478 remains a true style icon recognized for both its well-thought out functionality and timeless design. Now, Porsche Design is building on that legacy and introducing the P'8928 – a modern, squared aviator reinterpretation of the classic with the same unique interchangeable lens mechanism. Revamped, yet unmistakably Porsche Design. Each pair comes with an additional set of colored interchangeable lenses, and new lens colors are introduced each season. Exclusively manufactured in Japan, using ultra-light and durable titanium, the frame makes the P'8928 extremely comfortable to wear. RRP starting from $550.

Sports car DNA and high-tech precision – the P'8685 Hexagon Gold Limited Edition
The limited edition P'8685 Hexagon Gold sunglasses are a perfect fusion of Porsche Design philosophy and uncompromising engineering. Inspired by the engine block of a sports car, eight hexagonal screws hold the solid titanium front in place giving the glasses their unmistakable and bold look. Exclusive manufacturing underscores the precise construction with each frame being crafted individually by hand. Limited to only 500 pairs worldwide. Lightweight temples made of high-performance RXP® and polarized lenses ensure maximum comfort. RRP: $1,150.

Fusion models – striking contrasts in shape, material, and surface
Also new are the Porsche Design Fusion models, featuring striking contrasts in shape, material and surface. High-performance plastic RXP® meets metal while polished and matte surfaces intersect giving them an edgy and futuristic design. The P'8366 squared aviator correction glasses and P'8690 sunglasses are the fusion highlights from this new collection.

Ultra-Light – purely the essentials
The Ultra-Light line features a design language that is reduced to the minimum – timeless, simple and elegant with a diligent focus on functionality. High quality titanium is used in the frames only where absolutely needed while the temples and front are characterized by clear lines and flowing style. With the frame weighing only five grams, they are the lightest and most minimal glasses designed by the brand.

After 42 years of iconic and forward thinking eyewear innovations, Porsche Design continues to tap into its heritage while keeping an eye on the future in order to engineer unique glasses that guarantee optimal performance and timeless style. The new collection is the next chapter in the brand's eyewear story and the latest models remain true to the core principles while offering state-of-the-art eyewear features. Whether behind the wheel or on the go, Porsche Design glasses offer maximum quality, design and engineering that stand the test of time.

Privé Porter Opens Up First Ever Storefront in Miami's Uber-Luxury Brickell City Centre

*Photo credit World Red Eye; Hermès 20cm Birkin Faubourg Night & Hermès 20cm Birkin Faubourg Day the extremely rare set, in unused condition, on sale for $450,000

Privé Porter, the leading reseller of the most coveted Hermès Birkin handbags and luxury accessories, opened its first official brick-and-mortar storefront in Miami's uber-luxury Brickell City Centre. The new 1,250 sq. ft. location expands Privé Porter's luxury resale services from social media to retail, providing the Miami community with unparalleled access to the world's most exclusive Hermès handbags.

"With the demise of traditional retail anchors, shopping centers are looking to new, innovative brands such as Privé Porter to further attract affluent customers, and we couldn't be more proud to bring our unique offering to the Miami community at Brickell City Centre joining all the top names in luxury," says Jeffrey Berk, Managing Director of Privé Porter. "This pop-up is an audition to show that we bring the same Richard Mille-level customer whenever Privé Porter sets up shop. In a time when most retailers are shuttering stores and focusing on e-commerce, Privé Porter is seizing this opportunity to provide a first of its kind retail experience, shattering the 'glass ceiling' of secondhand luxury, legitimizing Privé Porter as a staple in the luxury community."

Privé Porter's Brickell City Centre store is bringing high fashion, luxury shopping and one-of-a-kind exclusive products to the Miami area, with Italian furnishings, chic Enno furniture and inventory handled only by certified staff. The store is fully secured with locked entrances and exits to limit the number of customers who can experience the exclusive handbags within the shop.  Each bag is an unused, pristine example of one of the different sizes of an Hermès Birkin or Kelly, ranging in price from $15,000 to $250,000 depending on the styles on display. Privé Porter continues to maintain a robust inventory through its passionate community of collectors, and specializes in sourcing rare and unique Hermès styles for clients including new 2020 color ways such as Vert Criquet, Sellier Rainbow, and Bleu Brume.

"Privé Porter is a unique re-sale concept that we are very excited to welcome to Brickell City Centre," said David Martin, Vice President, Retail, of Swire Properties. "Re-sale is an increasingly important part of the luxury eco-system, and increasingly desirable to discerning shoppers. It will allow them to dip their toes into the ultra-luxury side of fashion, and fits perfectly with Brickell City Centre's exciting mix of retailers and restaurants." 

While Berk founded Privé Porter in 2008, it wasn't until his wife, Michelle, took over with her love, knowledge and experience of the luxury goods market that turned the brand into the largest and most reliable source for brand new Hermès collectible handbags and accessories. Privé Porter was a first adopter of Instagram e-commerce in 2013, gaining a cult following of consumers who wanted hassle-free access to Hermés handbags, without the notorious roadblocks. Stars such as Kris Jenner, Paris Hilton, Cardi B, Keyshia Ka'Oir, Jeffree Star and more have become avid customers, turning to Privé Porter to not only source rare Hermés styles, but customize them as well.

To-date, Privé Porter's most expensive bag ever sold was a rare Hermès 30cm Gris Cendre Diamond Himalaya Crocodile Birkin with 18K Gold Hardware, selling for an impressive $500,000, close to three times more than what it retailed at Hermès. The brand's new storefront ushers in a new chapter for the luxury reseller, bringing their exclusive shopping experience to the affluent community of Miami, cementing their place as a pillar in the new age of luxury retail.

Unveiling the Jonathan Adler Home Fragrance Limited Edition Collection by Maison Berger

Maison Berger and Jonathan Adler come together with their limited edition collection of high-end home fragrance rituals. Maison Berger Paris' one-of-a-kind scents blend with the bold universe and craftsmanship of Jonathan Adler. This collaboration gives birth to two collections both inspired by the designer's iconic style. Each collection and scent have been crafted to bring Modern American Glamour to any interior.

"I only speak about 10 words of French, but two of them are definitely 'Maison Berger!'  I was so excited to marry my designs to their iconic home fragrances and I hope you love the collection as much as I do.  The best homes not only look good, they smell good too, n'est-ce pas?" said Jonathan Adler.

THE MUSE COLLECTION is inspired by the archetypal creations of Jonathan Adler and the desire to create a chic, elegant, and functional decor. The collection features three porcelain vessels with refined shapes and Adler's surreal touches such as embossed lips with sparkling gold metallic details.

• The catalytic lamp and the reed diffuser rituals display motifs from Jonathan Adler's iconic Muse vase. Both tops' patterns reproduce the artist's famous table leg.

• The scented candle ritual reflects the same design finesse.

The Muse rituals diffuse an exclusive perfume designed to transport you into a world of authenticity conveying values such as honesty and open-mindedness. Imperial Green Tea is rounded off with notes of sandalwood and a backdrop of modern musks.

THE Mr. & Mrs. COLLECTION pops with its bold graphic interplay between black and white and pays tribute to the genius of Salvador Dalí—a strong source of inspiration for Adler—representing his mustache, and to his muse, Misia Sert, representing her lips. The collection includes four different rituals:

• Catalytic lamp

• Reed diffuser

• Scented candles

• Car diffusers

The Mr. rituals are packed with Wilderness, a crafted fragrance that is at once powerful, conquering, and airy, with scents of tomato leaves that rub shoulders with citrus in the top notes.

The Mrs. rituals are filled with vibrant Citrus Breeze fragrance that possesses citrus facets—a favorite of Adler's—as well as the presence of vetiver in the base note.

Two iconic brands with recognized savoir-faire and like-minded ethos

The Maison Berger X Jonathan Adler collaboration embodies the perfect alchemy between Modern American Glamour interior design & French luxury home fragrance.

"The combination of the unique and modern style of Jonathan Adler and the long tradition of Maison Berger for the finest home fragrances is creating an extraordinary range of products and emotions. We are truly proud and extremely excited to launch this new collection across the globe," said Maison Berger North America President Guillaume Wehrlin.

The full collection is available at maison-berger.com, maison-berger.ca or jonathanadler.com, and in Jonathan Adler stores.

MAKING YOUR WORK-FROM-HOME WORK

As we are finding ourselves adapting to new living and working environments, it is important now more than ever to create an indoor aesthetic that is both positive and comforting. Finding that balance varies from person-to-person, however many have found that adding live greenery and organic accents to a space can change an atmosphere entirely. Keeping the mindset that a space has now become your office might be new and somewhat challenging for you. Consider reorienting the furnishings and adding light to flip the vibe of the room so that you are able to adjust your mental position. 

Christie's International Real Estate's 'Luxury Defined' blog recently published an article on "home office design" and "working from home". The article highlights several well-known interior designers and their perspectives on adding nature-inspired colors, textures, and motifs to create a stronger connection with the outdoors.

Integrating elements of nature into your home office design might not be a new approach—it’s been a trend in well-designed office spaces for years—but it has benefits you might not be aware of. Google’s Zurich headquarters famously introduced one of the first indoor gardens into its workspace, and credited a boost in creativity to the increased light, greenery, and oxygen.

Now, as the current public health crisis means we’re spending both work and leisure time at home, there’s no better time to apply this aesthetic to your own surroundings.

The most achievable, and obvious, way to do so is simple: add some plants—requisitioning pot plants from elsewhere in your home or ordering them online if necessary. But, while the sense of calm that greenery can bring to a space is not to be underestimated, it’s just one of many ways designers weave natural elements into their interiors. Read on for their expert tips.

Frame the View

Follow the advice of Studio L, a London-based interior design company that specializes in creating beautiful homes, and draw attention to what’s beyond your window. Whether your home office overlooks greenery, the urban landscape, or water, you can take simple steps to frame the view.

“At Studio L, we tend to paint window frames in colors that enhance whichever vista may be outside,” explains creative director Laura Marino. “We’ve used shades of green, blue, gray, yellow, and charcoal to bring each view into focus.”

“I’d advise getting a delivery of paint samples (VOC-free to avoid fumes), brushes, and wallpaper lining. Paint large samples onto the wallpaper lining then tape them to the window architraves to see how you’d like to frame your view.”

You can also achieve a similar result with a set of curtains. “We always use window treatments to link and enhance the view outside,” says Marino. “By layering textures and playing with heights and decor you create a visual hierarchy that draws your eye to what’s outside.”

Integrate Natural Materials and Textures

Nature-inspired colors, textures, and motifs create a stronger connection with the outdoors. This is the approach taken by Elicyon, an award-winning interior design studio known for residential projects across New York, Los Angeles, London, and Dubai.

“In the Blossom apartment we designed at Chelsea Barracks in London, we brought reference to the outdoors through an abstraction of floral motifs and materiality,” says Charu Gandhi, founder and director of Elicyon.

“This was expressed in the ceramic textures of table lamps, a rug that’s reminiscent of a flower unfurling, and a chandelier in which seed pods are imagined as frosted light fittings on a brushed brass stalk.”

To achieve this look, try integrating items in hues and textures that remind you of the environment outside. Sometimes this can draw on the personal connections you have with a particular place.

“Bringing in natural materials and textures immediately sets a tone for the space,” Gandhi explains. “Rattan is a lovely element to weave in for a sense of the outdoors. It reminds me of my childhood in India and the Far East, when outdoor rattan furniture was de rigueur. Space-making is about evoking memories and emotions.”

Reorientate the Room

Parisian firm Jouin Manku has designed the interiors of private residences, retail spaces for brands such as Van Cleef & Arpels, office environments including Paris’s Ministry of Defence, and Alain Ducasse restaurants worldwide. The agency’s founding partner, Sanjit Manku, believes reorientation can be key to bringing a sense of the outdoors inside.

Parisian design firm Jouin Manku uses "soft, organic, curved formations" to evoke the feeling of a natural environment—even where there's no outside view.

“Our work is very much nature inspired,” he says. “We aim to create spaces that reflect the natural environment, an environment that is sculpted by forces of nature into soft, organic, curved formations.”

To begin, ask yourself how you can alter the space to find calmness. “We find a sense of peace when we’re in a natural space,” Manku elaborates. “Being able to breathe deeply with a view creates a feeling of calm. It can take a small change, such as orientating your seat next to a window, so you have a beautifully long-term view. These kinds of things can help you feel grounded in the relationship to the exterior.”

Finding the right layout is then a simply matter of trying things out. “Take rooms that are filled with light and move the furniture around,” he advises. “Use it as a test to see how it affects you. Spaces are not just about decor—they’re not just about what things look like. There is power in space because it affects what you feel. To make the most out of your workspace, explore the effect reorientation has.”

GOOSSENS X HARUMI KLOSSOWSKA DE ROLA

On the one hand, the House of Goossens, established in 1950 and a part of Chanel’s Métiers d’Art since 2005, with its gold and silver creations and artistic objects. On the other hand, Harumi Klossowska de Rola who creates exceptional works between fine jewelry and art objects. When the former decided to invite the latter to celebrate the new season, the result was a release of uniquely free creativity. They both deeply love expert know-how and hand crafting, are fascinated by the beauty of the deceptively irregular, and combined their talents to give birth to an original capsule collection focusing on 6 decorative items and their accompanying 6 jewels. 

What do they have in common? The presence of strong symbolic elements relating to three main themes. 

Case in point, on a box with two lids inlaid with baroque garnet, a decorative branch, a pair of earrings, a bracelet and a sautoir, we find a grenade (in several forms), a fruit that is sacred in all civilizations, synonymous with resurrection, fertility and life. 

The fig leaf, a symbol of generosity, adorns a small tray, a little dish named “three fig leaves” enlivened with a small caterpillar entirely pavé-set with brilliant cut stones, in old bronze metal. 

As for the mistletoe, a sacred plant that evokes immortality as well as prosperity, it covers a branch, a candlestick, earrings, a ring and a bracelet. All of which are in antique gold metal and baroque rock crystal beads. 

The focus is on beloved materials: rock crystal, antique gilded bronze, old gold and fine stones. Rock crystal and garnet give life to these creations.

Hot For Your Home: 2018's Most Inspirational Interior Trends

The thrilling sequence of fashion weeks has got us planning outfits for months to come, but have you thought about what you’re going to style your home in 2018? If you have a love for fashion or an interest in interiors, here are some of 2018’s most inspirational trends to try at home.

Understated Industrial

After hitting the headlines a few years ago, the industrial trend is back with a bang in 2018.

This time around, adopt an understated, muted approach. Think stripped back brickwork and rustic beams paired with oversized bulbs with exposed filaments and sleek metal chairs. Keep the palette neutral with shades of white, beige and gray, and add splashes of vibrancy with houseplants.

This trend works for almost any room in the house and you can modify it to suit your individual taste. It’s a great look to work with if you’re planning to create a cool home office, a minimalist boudoir or an effortlessly trendy kitchen.

Color blocking

Color blocking is a trend we often see on the catwalks. This year, take inspiration from spring/summer lookbooks and channel this vibe in your home. Color blocking is a fantastic way to embrace and use color without going overboard, and it can produce incredibly chic looks. Opt for brighter, bolder shades in living rooms and kitchens and muted tones in bedrooms and bathrooms. Gray and yellow work brilliantly in reception rooms while pastels are an ideal choice for the bedroom. Look out for colored accessories to add splashes of intrigue to plain walls and choose shades that complement each other. You don’t have to spend a fortune overhauling an entire room to emanate Instagram images or glossy magazine shots. Browse gift cards online to save you money at home stores and look for affordable versions of popular designer accessories like candle holders, plant pots, and rugs. It’s also worth checking out vintage markets and auction sites. It is possible to create a very stylish look on a budget.

Colored kitchens

If you’re a fan of crisp, clean white cabinets, worktops and walls, look away now! 2018 is the year of the colored kitchen, and we’re not just talking beige or dove gray. This is a time to be audacious. Opt for violet, blue or green or go for a touch of opulence with colored marble tops. If you’re afraid of color or you’re not keen on redesigning the entire kitchen, it is possible to update the look of the room without splashing the cash or taking on a huge amount of work. Adding a bold shade to one wall can create a statement or you could lift muted walls with distinctive accessories. Learning to accessorize is a simple and affordable way of keeping up with the trends and ensuring your home always looks the part.

Pink

Pink was a big deal on the spring/summer catwalks in 2017, and this year, it’s making waves in the world of interior design. Bolder, brighter pinks were all the rage last year, and this season, it’s the turn of subtle, blush shades. Blush pink works perfectly with gray and white, and it’s an ideal choice for living spaces, bedrooms and modern home offices. Team pretty pink walls with rose gold or bronze accessories and add greenery to complete the look. Keep the flooring light and embrace natural materials, such as cotton and wood. This trend is perfect as we move into slightly warmer climes and the days start to get longer and lighter.

Modern florals

Florals make the cut every year, but this is such a diverse trend.

One year, we could be talking moody winter florals while the next we’re taking inspiration for our wallpaper from our grandma’s favorite knits.

For 2018, there’s a nod to old school, traditional florals, so don’t rush to cover up paper you assumed was dated just yet. Opt for a statement wall for a trendy living room or embrace a chintz-inspired vibe with printed linen, curtains and cushions in the bedroom.

This year’s palette is a little more adventurous than in years gone by, so look for patterns that feature pops of turquoise, yellow, pink or green.

Bringing the outside in

Many of us are taking more interest in the planet and the natural environment that surrounds our homes, and this is an interest that is reflected in interior trends. Maximize natural light, opt for natural materials and look to combine indoor and outdoor living. Make the most of views out onto gardens or parks, angle furniture towards windows and sliding doors and keep the decor light and fresh. You can channel this vibe in most rooms in your home, but perhaps the best place to bring the outside in is the kitchen, especially if your room backs onto an outdoor area. If you’ve got space, you could create a stunning seating area overlooking the yard using rattan sofas, bamboo rugs, towering plants and cotton-covered cushions. If it’s not quite warm enough for drinks with the doors open yet, you can add a cozy feel with oversized standing lanterns and throws draped over the backs of chairs. This trend is ideally suited to large, spacious homes, but it’s also a brilliant option for smaller spaces. With light walls and flooring, you can really open up the room and make it look a lot larger than it is. Hanging mirrors is another easy way to lighten up a bijou pad.

There’s a constant buzz surrounding new season fashion trends, but have you thought about the kinds of styles and themes you’re going to embrace in your home in the coming months? Like fashion, interior looks come and go in the blink of an eye, but there’s always a diverse range of trends to choose from, so you’re bound to find something you like. If you’re on the lookout for ways to update and refresh your interiors without breaking the bank or devoting every spare minute to painting and decorating, hopefully, this guide has given you some inspiration.
