> Fine & Country Foundation raises £126,353 for charity With the help of the network and generosity of the public, The Fine & Country Foundation raised an astounding £126,352 during 2023. With the money raised, as well as additional money already in the pot, the Foundation was able to donate £144,198 during 2023, which played a crucial role in addressing the economic impact on non-profit organisations posed by the pandemic, the rising cost of living and global conflicts.

Jon Cooke, Trustee of The Fine & Country Foundation, expressed his gratitude, stating, “The donations and grants from the Foundation provide essential financial support to many organisations and charities fighting homelessness and poverty.

Without the effort and support of the Fine & Country network and the generosity of the public, the Foundation would not have been able to achieve this impact.”

In addition to supporting several initiatives, the Foundation awarded over £92,708 to charities through two grant schemes, benefiting 51 global charities in 2023. November saw 23 charities receiving £47,220, and in spring, 28 charities shared £45,488.

he extensive arterial road network that stretches from Bangkok International Airport, delivering visitors into the heart of the Thai capital, is the first sign that Bangkok has expanded more than a little in the decade or so since my last visit. Buildings that touch the sky dot the urban jungle and the Bangkok metro zips along an elevated track before diving underground.

The city stretches on forever, the horizon masked by architecture that seems to be filling the gaps in each neighbourhood like the odd-shaped blocks in a game of Tetris.

Around 45 minutes of fast-moving traffic later, we turn into a long driveway, the footpath bordered by walls of living greenery. A turn to the right and we pull up at the entrance to the COMO Metropolitan Bangkok. The hotel has been quietly occupying this somewhat hidden corner of Bangkok’s Central Business District since 2003, its unassuming, minimalist façade belying the serenity inside.

My bags are whisked into the lobby while I follow at a slower pace, passing the glass columns topped with gnarled branches laced with tiny, pink, orchid-like blossoms that flank the pathway to reception. I’m guided to a lounge seat, handed a refreshing beverage and a

bed. A mustard rug delineating the lounge area provides a pop of colour. There’s a plate of fresh tropical fruit and a trio of Thai sweets waiting on the coffee table. Through the window, the sun is bathing the towers in burnished gold, a patch of greenery the only hint that a swimming pool awaits below.

I have a mere 24 hours in Bangkok, so after a quick refresh, I head out to reacquaint myself with the city. Some change is immediately apparent – there are more cars and fewer motorbikes, with more motorbike helmets in use. Towering accommodation blocks are watched over by smiling security guards. Modern metro stations and a maze of overpasses line the busy streets. Other things remain the same – brightly coloured tuk tuks still trundle the streets; motorbike taxis beseech passers-by; street vendors line the pavements, selling everything – from fresh coconut water, chilled and decorated with slivers of young coconut flesh to bowls of spicy noodle soup wafting their aromas along the streets. Overhead, immense tangles of electrical wires loop in organised chaos. I duck down the alleyways, becoming delightfully lost, finding a canal with shady trees and a small roundabout constructed around a large yellow statue of a Transformer, there for no

discernible reason. Another roundabout is constructed from old motorcycle parts, a mechanical dragon rearing its head at the centre.

Much wandering later, nearing the Grand Palace complex, rows of tuk tuks await their tourists, who have donned hastily purchased sarongs to protect their modesty so they are allowed to enter the palace grounds. I continue past the glittering spires and golden stupas, making my way into the crumbling wooden over-water shack that funnels passengers onto the ferry that crosses the Chao Phraya River. Wooden planks are haphazardly balanced on a line of sandbags down the centre aisle. The tide is high and waves are washing through the gaps in the floorboards. I let the dirty water splash over my feet so I can offer my arm to an elderly lady with a walking stick as she crosses the sandbag bridge, her grateful, crinkleeyed grin a lovely reward.

Our destination is Wat Arun, the ferry banking mere steps from the entrance to this temple, known for its 80-metre-high Khmer-style tower, which is decorated with a mosaic of colourful Chinese porcelain, once used as ballast on ships from China. The grand pagoda is overseen by ferocious Chinese warrior sculptures that serve as guardians of the temple. Surrounding the temple are perfectly manicured gardens and a scattering of

structures, from the Ordination Hall to a temple housing the sacred golden Niramitr Buddha statue.

Back on the eastern bank of the river, I stroll to Wat Pho, one of my favourite temples in Bangkok. Despite the high volume of visitors Wat Pho entices, it’s a peaceful place. Away from the main pavilion, which I’m saving for last, open doorways lead to courtyards with more open doorways, leading to more courtyards, as if modelled on an Escher painting. Wandering at whim, I find rows of Buddha statues, gold leaf flapping in the breeze; forests of colourful mosaic stupas; large golden statues; schoolchildren giggling as they sit in the shade to eat lunch. I spend hours here, enjoying the sunshine and the ambience.

Before departing, I remove my shoes and step into the main pavilion. Inside, an enormous buddha reclines along the entire length of the building, face upturned. The image, covered in gold leaf, is 15 metres high and 46 metres long.

Visitors drop coins into a row of brass alms bowls along one wall, while others jostle for the best views. From his tightly coiled crown of hair to the bottom of his mother-of-pearl inlaid feet, the Buddha is a rather awe-inspiring sight. No matter how many times I visit Bangkok, this statue always makes me pause.

As the day starts to wane, I purchase a plastic token and board the Blue Line of the metro, which deposits me back in the neighbourhood of the COMO Metropolitan Bangkok. This is the moment I’ve been anticipating. I have a reservation at the hotel’s Michelin-starred nahm restaurant, which occupies the ground floor of the hotel, overlooking the outdoor pool.

Nahm is known for using robustly flavoured ingredients — garlic, shrimp paste, chillies, lemongrass – to create modern Thai fare, and every bite of the ten-course heritage set menu is a flavour explosion. Chef Pim’s creativity and passion for authentic Thai flavours shines through dishes like mango and dried-fish salad with sweet fish sauce dressing; savoury coconut relish with charcoal-grilled catfish, Krachai wild ginger and fresh vegetables; and a sweet combination of bites that represents the life cycle of coconut. This is Thai food at its very best. It deserves every star.

Come morning, after a delicious breakfast overlooking the pool, I’m on my way. It may have only been one night in Bangkok, but it’s been full of flavour – in every way. n For more information about COMO Metropolitan Bangkok, see www.comohotels.com/thailand

ocated on the French Riviera between Cannes and Nice, the Cap d’Antibes, along with Cap Ferrat to the northeast, is one of the best known landforms in the area. The appeal of living in Cap d’Antibes begins with its location. The picturesque headland sits between Antibes and Juan les Pins and, like Cap Ferrat, attracts the elite. It holds a reputation as being one of the most prestigious addresses in France. It all started back in 1865, when botanist Gustave Thuret noticed the beautiful foreland, bought a piece of land, and started acclimatising tropical plants to local conditions. Courtesy of his work, Australian eucalyptus and many varieties of palm trees can now be seen on the French Riviera. The sumptuous green parks in the area became homes to luxurious palaces and villas for Europeans of high standing.

Cap d’Antibes remains a popular destination. During the summer, the bustling Provençal markets buzz with visitors. Once the seasonal visitors begin to disperse, the medieval towns, enchanting sea and magnificent mountain scenery and hilltop villages are all yours to explore. Start with St-Paul-de-Vence, a fairy-tale village perched high on the Provençal hills between Nice and Vence. Picasso and Matisse have spent time here, with the likes of Kylie and Elton visiting more recently. Further east is Èze, perched on cliffs 700m above sea level.

Further afield, if you drive the Grande Corniche, built by Napoleon I and running 500 metres above sea level, you’ll find spectacular views over the Mediterranean coast.

Notable sections include the mountain pass of Col d’Èze, ➤➤

which is so dramatically beautiful that it was featured in a James Bond movie. The commune of La Turbie has stunning views above Monaco, and when you descend into Roquebrune-Cap-Martin you can explore one of France’s oldest castles, dating from the 10th century.

The peninsula offers a blend of natural beauty, proximity to the sea, a glamorous lifestyle and a tranquil atmosphere. The western side of Cap d’Antibes is known for its picturesque landscapes, with stunning views of the glittering sea and sunsets that are nothing short of spectacular. In this locale, there is a farmhouse sitting in a strategic location that ensures a breathtaking panorama.

Dating back over 200 years, the farmhouse stands as a testament to the rich history of the region. Meticulous restoration efforts have breathed new life into the original features, which lends a sense of timeless character to the residence. From the moment you step onto the property, you are embraced by a sense of history and tradition that resonates throughout.

That’s not to say you’ll be lacking when it comes to modern amenities. The blending of restored original features with high-end contemporary amenities becomes a harmonious whole, packed with character and warmth while providing the comfort and convenience expected from a property of this calibre.

Inside, each room exudes character, with original details like exposed beams and stone walls telling a story of the property’s evolution. This is more than just a family home; it is designed for hosting, with six en suite bedrooms in the main house, and an independent house on the premises.

One of the remarkable features of the farmhouse is its adaptability to different seasons. Cap d’Antibes can be enjoyed throughout the year, and this property is designed to match that versatility. During the winter months, the underfloor heating and four fireplaces create a cosy retreat, ensuring every room is a haven of comfort. In contrast, the warm summer months are met with the refreshing embrace of central air-conditioning, for those seeking respite from the Mediterranean sun.

Beyond the elegant interiors, the property boasts a plethora of amenities that redefine the concept of luxury living. This includes a heated pool, landscaped gardens adorned with Mediterranean trees and plants, a tennis court, fitness room, sauna, steam bath and home cinema. The inclusion of century-old olive trees on the property not only adds to the aesthetic appeal, but also serves a practical purpose in the production of olive oil.

Living in Cap d’Antibes is a choice for those who seek more than just a property. This beautifully renovated farmhouse encapsulates the essence of the French Riviera lifestyle, offering a haven where the past and present coalesce in one extraordinary dwelling. n

t may be the Ubud Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary that draws visitors to Ubud, in the Balinese highlands – or perhaps the proximity to ancient temples, lush jungles, arts and culture, flowing waterfalls and active volcanoes – but down a discreet driveway on the fringe of the hustle and bustle, another sanctuary awaits.

The COMO Uma Ubud has 46 rooms, suites and villas, discreetly positioned along leafy pathways that branch off the resort’s poolside centre. The interiors are designed by Koichiro Ikebuchi to feel like hillside homes – albeit very luxe hillside homes. They feature indigenous materials, landscaped courtyards and oversized windows that cosset guests in tropical light. Many have private pools that overlook a verdant tropical valley, making you feel like you’re in the heart of nature, despite the buzz of Ubud just down the road.

When it comes time to dine, Kemiri’s menu revives traditional Indonesian dishes while also offering contemporary interpretations of the cuisines of neighbouring countries. Uma Cucina, the open-air restaurant and lounge bar with a street-side setting at the front of the hotel, serves delectable Italianinspired food. The pool bar provides more casual dishes, for those who can’t drag themselves away from the allure of the water. And if you’re looking for something truly special, the COMO Uma Ubud team can orchestrate intimate gourmet meals in a host of romantic locales, from your private terrace to a lantern-lit lawn.

Should all this dining and relaxation become too much, the Ubud COMO Shambhala Retreat offers award-winning wellness treatments to rejuvenate, in preparation for tackling one of the activities on offer on the daily schedule, from cooking classes to yoga or village visits. Or perhaps just to lie back on a lounger by the pool and enjoy the moment.

What’s hot in 2024 As we step into a new year, people often start to think about updating their interiors. Kirsty Fisher, Business Development Manager at Fine & Country Property Staging, lets us in on some of the year’s fastest emerging trends.

INTERIOR DESIGN SCENE

T

he world of interior design evolves year on year, bringing with it new opportunities to create a fresh feel to existing spaces. Last year’s hottest phrase was ‘quiet luxury’, bringing a sense of calm and opulence.

This year, we can see a few new trends coming to the fore.

Sustainable chic In an era marked by environmental consciousness, sustainable interior design continues to take centre stage. Homeowners are increasingly seeking eco-friendly materials, recycled furnishings and energy-efficient appliances. From reclaimed wood furniture to energyefficient lighting solutions, sustainability is no longer just a trend but more of a conscious lifestyle choice that resonates with many. People are generally becoming more discerning in all their choices, opting for quality over quantity. In interior terms, this means investing in classic pieces that will stand the test of time, rather than succumbing to a fast-furniture culture.

Biophilic design Bringing the outdoors inside is a trend that continues to gain momentum. Biophilic design incorporates natural elements into interior spaces, fostering a connection with nature. Think living walls, indoor plants and ample natural light. The result? A tranquil and rejuvenating environment that promotes wellbeing and harmony.

There has been an increase in natural materials, such as wood, stone and cork in the last few years. These materials not only evoke a sense of the outdoors, but also bring warmth and authenticity to any space. Wooden furniture, stone countertops, and cork flooring create a tactile and inviting environment.

Grandmillennial style Embracing the charm of yesteryears with a modern twist, grandmillennial style is all about mixing traditional elements with contemporary design.

Think vintage-inspired fabrics, classic furniture and a touch of nostalgia. This trend appeals to those who appreciate the elegance of the past, while still enjoying the conveniences of the present. It is a fun evolution of what has been called maximalism over the last few years with vibrant colours, eclectic patterns and an abundance of textures.

Earthy tones and warm neutrals We think neutral colour palettes with warm undertones will dominate interior design in 2024 for those who don’t want to go all out with the maximalism trend.

These tones, like terracotta, olive green and warm beige, accentuate a sustainability design agenda and enable the creation of cosy and inviting spaces. These colours also add a touch of sophistication and serve as a versatile backdrop for other design elements.

Curved furniture Straight lines began to give way to curves in 2023 and we expect this to continue for 2024. From curved sofas to rounded tables and arches, this trend adds a touch of softness and fluidity to spaces. Curved furniture not only makes a bold statement, but also creates a sense of comfort and harmony, especially when combined with the tactile fabrics we are seeing everywhere.

These interior design trends of 2024 reflect a dynamic interplay between tradition and modernity, sustainability and luxury, simplicity and extravagance. As homeowners seek to create spaces that are aesthetically pleasing and, at the same time, aligned with their values and lifestyle, these trends provide a great roadmap for crafting homes that are both stylish and meaningful. Whether you lean towards sustainable chic or embrace the allure of maximalism, the key is to create a space that resonates with your personality and brings joy to your everyday life. n For more information, see fineandcountry.co.uk/services/ property-staging-and-styling and for a complimentary staging consultation, contact propertystaging@fineandcountry.com.
