Olivia Jane Cockburn was born on March 10, 1984, in New York City, to Leslie and Andrew Cockburn. Her father is a famous British journalist and her mother Leslie, also a journalist, was a producer on the American TV show, 60 Minutes . She has an elder sister named Chloe Frances Cockburn and a younger brother, Charlie Philip Cockburn. Growing up in Washington DC, Olivia has previously spoken of her upbringing and the famous faces including Mick Jagger and Steven Spielberg who frequented. In high school, Wilde changed her name. In honour of family members who wrote under pen names and for her love of Oscar Wilde, she became Olivia Wilde.

“Hot 100” list. In 2012 she acted alongside Chris Pine in the drama film People Like Us. After leaving House , Olivia turned her efforts towards producing. In 2013, she starred in and produced the biographical drama, Rush alongside Chris Hemsworth, as well as other documentary short films, including Body Team 12 in 2015. It won Best Documentary Short at the Tribeca Film Festival and was subsequently nominated for an Academy Award.

Later that year Olivia was linked to Jason Sudeikis. The pair got engaged in January 2013 and became parents to son Otis in 2014 and daughter Daisy in 2016. In late 2020, news emerged that the couple had ended their engagement but continue to co-parent their two children. In 2017, Wilde made her Broadway debut as Julie in 1984. This followed with her directorial debut nearly two decades after she first emerged in the entertainment industry. Her indie film ‘Booksmart’ was met with critical acclaim and was even nominated for a Golden Globe. More recently, Wilde has stepped up, starring in and thisanotherdirectingfeature,month’snew release, Don’t Worry Darling , alongside Harry Styles, Florence Pugh and Chris Pine. During the filming Olivia began dating co-star Harry Styles, with the pair going public in January 2021 at Harry’s manager’s wedding.

Turn to page 36 to find out more about the psychological thriller released this month.

In 2011, Olivia divorced Tao Ruspoli, talking of the split she shared, “I had grown up with Tao; we had just drifted. I felt I had something to prove. If you fall off a horse, you get back up. I am not a quitter. I hung on for as lo ng as possible, until it was more hurtful to stay.”

Olivia hoped to become an actress from an early age. After graduating from high school in 2002, she planned to attend Bard College, but instead opted to move to Los Angeles to follow her passion for acting. In 2003, she landed her first lead role playing Jewel Goldman in the TV series Skin and at just 19 years old married Italian aristocrat and filmmaker, Tao Ruspoli. A year later Olivia secured another role in the hit series The O.C. and was featured in the romantic comedy The Girl Next Door.

2 HOW NOT TO DROWN IN A GLASS OF WATER by Angie Cruz Cara Romero thought she would work at a factory forever, but when, in her mid-50s, she loses her job in the Great Recession, she is forced back into the job market for the first time in decades. Over the course of twelve sessions with a job counsellor, Cara recounts her passionate love affairs, her relationships with her neighbour Lulu and her sister Angela, her struggles with financial issues and devastating loss, and, eventually, what really happened between her and her estranged son, Fernando. As Cara confronts her darkest secrets and regrets, we see a woman knocked by life but still full of fight.

1 THE PORTRAITMARRIAGE by Maggie O’Farrell

3 THE ATTIC CHILD by Lola Jaye

Lola Jaye tells the story of two children trapped in the same attic, almost a century apart, bound by a secret. In 1907, Twelve-year-old Celestine spends most of his time locked up, treated as an unpaid servant, he dreams of his family in Africa. Decades later, Lowra, a young orphan girl born into wealth and privilege finds herself banished to the same attic. Lying under the floorboards of the room is an old porcelain doll, a unique, beaded claw necklace and a phrase etched on the wall behind an old cupboard, written in an unrecognisable language. These items offer her a peculiar kind of comfort and lead her to believe that she was not the first child to be imprisoned there.

READ

Following the remarkable success of her bestseller, Hamnet, Maggie O’Farrell is back with another stunning historical fiction novel set in Renaissance Italy. When her sister tragically passes on the eve of her wedding, Lucrezia de Medici unexpectedly marries her late sister’s fiance. As Lucrezia poses for a marriage portrait, she ponders her new husband’s nature and questions whether he is a gentle sophisticate or a merciless politician.

There is nothing quite like getting caught up in a good book and we all know certain songs have a way of transporting us to a magical moment. So, how do you spend your downtime? Do you pick up a heart-warming novel and disappear into an imaginative state or do you stick your headphones in, play your favourite artist and zone out? Or how about both? In each issue we bring you new releases designed to give you those moments of relaxation we all need.

LEANN RIMES – God’s Work Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter LeAnn Rimes returns with her new studio album. Three years in the making, Rimes’ songwriting and gentle but powerful vocal skills are showcased in the 12-track, genre-bending album. The album, god’s work was written and produced by Rimes and her long-time friend and producer Darrell Brown. Described as “ethereal, rhythmic, and brutally honest,” you can expect a wide range of songs that cover the ups, downs, and in-betweens of life. With the creation of the album, Rimes was focused on supporting and elevating her fellow women in music with the mixing, recording, and mastering all done by women.

The seventh studio album from the Grammy nominated and BRIT Award winning artist KT Tunstall is the last in a trilogy of albums she began recording and releasing in 2016. Each part of the trilogy relates to the three existential parts of ourselves; KIN - Spirit, WAX - Body, and NUT - Mind. KT recently shared how the album got its name; “Growing up in Scotland, if someone was losing their temper you would say, ‘Dinny lose yer Nut!’ I love that the word also means a seed. The album artwork is all about the brain being a garden; you reap what you sow, you need to keep the weeds at bay, and there is an almost supernatural beauty to when things blossom.”

HOCUS POCUS 2 tarring: Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy, Sam Richardson, Hannah Waddingham, Doug Jones

DON’T WORRY DARLING Starring: Florence Pugh, Olivia Wilde, Chris Pine, Harry Styles Alice and Jack are blessed to be living in the idealized community of Victory, the experimental company town housing the men who work for the topsecret Victory Project and their families. The 1950’s societal optimism espoused by their CEO, Frank, equal parts corporate visionary and motivational life coach, anchors every aspect of daily life in the tight-knit desert utopia. While the husbands spend every day inside the Victory Project Headquarters, working on the “development of progressive materials,” their wives, including Frank’s elegant partner, Shelley, get to spend their time enjoying the beauty, luxury and debauchery of their community. Life is perfect, with every resident’s needs met by the company. All they ask in return is discretion and unquestioning commitment to the Victory cause. But when cracks in her serene life begin to appear, revealing flashes of something much more sinister peeking through the cracks. Alice can’t help questioning exactly what they’re doing in Victory, and why. But how much is Alice willing to lose to expose what’s really going on in this paradise?

BLONDE Starring: Adrien Brody, Brad Pitt, Sara Paxton, Ana de Armas Starring Ana de Armas as Marilyn Monroe and perhaps one of the most anticipated Netflix movies of the year, Blonde is a fictionalized biopic on the life and career of one of the world’s most famous actresses, Marilyn Monroe. Blonde is based on the adaptation of Joyce Carol Oates’ 2000 book starting with Marilyn’s relationship with her father and ending in her alleged assassination. Director Dominik selected de Armas after almost a decade of trying to cast the lead role. The film has grabbed headlines for its rare rating in the US but is set to earn endless praise for its leading star.

KARDASHIAN SPLIT

Britney Spears is teaming up with none other than Elton John for what is tipped to be ‘the song of the summer,’ a new rendition of Sir Elton’s classic 1971 hit Tiny Dancer, now entitled Hold Me Closer. The track marks Britney’s first release since the end of her 13-year conservatorship. Rumours of a collaboration between the duo have been circulating for a while but Elton appears to be the one who came up with the idea of the duet. This will no doubt reinvigorate Britney’s musical career after a silent few years.

STRAIGHTRECORDTHESETTING

Since Nicola Peltz married Brooklyn Beckham earlier this year, speculation has been rife that she and her mother-in-law, Victoria, aren’t seeing eye-toeye. In a recent interview, Nicola decided to set the record explainingstraightshe thinks the rumours began when it emerged, she wasn’t wearing one of Victoria’s own designs on her wedding day, she explained: “I was going to and I really wanted to, and then a few months down the line, she realised that her atelier couldn’t do it, so then I had to pick another dress. “She didn’t say you can’t wear it; I didn’t say I didn’t want to wear it. That’s where it started, and then they ran with that.”

Two years after a tragic miscarriage, model, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend have announced they are expecting another child, “the last few years have been a blur of emotions to say the least, but joy has filled our home and hearts again,” Chrissy shared alongside a series of baby bump photos. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model revealed how she still feels apprehension given the loss of her and Legend’s third child, Jack, in October 2020, but explained how she is pushing through and feeling grateful. “I don’t think I’ll ever walk out of an appointment with more excitement than nerves but so far, everything is perfect and beautiful and I’m feeling hopeful and amazing,” she wrote. “Ok phew it’s been very hard keeping this in for so long!”

Kim Kardashian and Saturday Night Live alum Pete Davidson have decided to break up and end their romantic relationship. Insiders shared that while the pair has “a lot of love and respect for each other,” they found that the long-distance dynamic and their demanding schedules “made it really difficult to maintain a relationship.”

Family 37

She amassed No. 1 hits, chart-topping albums and four records that sold more than two million copies each but was most famous for her starring role in “Grease,” one of the most popular movie musicals of its era.

Olivia passed away last month at the age of 73 after fighting a breast cancer diagnosis since 1992. In 2017, she publicised that the cancer had returned and spread. Her husband, John Easterling, announced her passing and credited her continuous support of cancer causes. RIP Olivia.

FIRST It will be a massive loss for the world of tennis, but Serena Williams has declared she will be leaving tennis, just as she played, on her own terms. The 23-time Grand Slam champion has shared that her goal is to have another child and to do that she believes it is time to evolve away from tennis. In an interview with Vogue Serena disclosed, “I have never liked the word retirement, it doesn’t feel like a modern word to me.” However, her daughter’s wish to be a big sister and to grow her family takes priority.

Comedian Connor Ratliff’s (true) storytelling includes the themes of failure, rejection and disappointment springing from a very niche and bizarre episode in his life when the nicest man in showbusiness, Tom Hanks, fired his sorry ass from the HBO mini-series, Band of Brothers.

Podcasts are episodic in an audio or video format. The fact that they can be downloaded or streamed and listened to at any time makes them a convenient form of entertainment. At the gym, beach, driving, walking or relaxing, or even doing the housework, here are a few podcasts to subscribe to…

>> dead eyes

Although the unfortunate incident was two decades ago, it has haunted Connor ever since, spurring him on to record this podcast. Spoiler alert – the title of the podcast is the reason for Connor’s unceremonious dismissal. That’s right, ‘America’s Dad’ as Mr Hanks is known, thought that Connor had ‘dead eyes’ and this podcast is about his quest to find out the reason for his firing, actually interviewing Tom Hanks. The comedic element is that such a random incident in someone’s life has been turned into a threeseason podcast, with the 3rd season premiering on the 28th of October. Available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

The Samsung TikTok account has 1.8 million followers, and the video promoting the S22 Ultra phone was able to show off the camera and video function with a piece of film shot at night. This is an example of a brand utilising a certain style of social media; they ran a ‘show us your city at night’ campaign, thus promoting the nighttime camera mode. They have also brought back a version of fold and flip phones, with the Galaxy Fold and the Z Flip, making TikTok the perfect foil to introduce the concept to Millennials (the 25 to 40-year-olds) and Gen Z, making the brand more accessible to its target audience. Through a hashtag challenge, users were encouraged to dance (in folding moves) to music and jingles to show the world their identity. Samsung collaborated with TikTok’s top creators who joined the challenge and demonstrated their choreographed moves. Collaborations with influencers and hashtag challengers are two sure-fire ways to get noticed on the socials. TikTok has been around since 2016, and the platform has grown into a social media goliath, in 2019 it reached its first billion downloads. The short-form video format is ideal for the quick consumer market. It has catapulted music, dances and challenges along with different trends into the public consciousness. As well as likes and shares, users can track the post with the number of impressions (how many times it appears in someone’s feed) and reach (how many people have viewed it). With the help of algorithms, you only get to see the type of content that you want to see. The entertainment value and dopamine buzz resulted in TikTok becoming a hit with Gen Z (the 9 to 24-year-olds), but now all ages are consuming its content and performing on there too. Businesses are now tapping into the phenomenon, realising its marketing potential. Not only does the algorithm work in your favour, but it also helps that TikTok isn’t over-saturated with brands yet, unlike Facebook and Instagram. As it is becoming increasingly popular among companies to create videos promoting brand awareness, here are some of the most successful TikTok campaigns and accounts of 2022.

An innovative strategy from a centre of education, Glasgow’s University of Strathclyde used a different approach to catch the attention of prospective students. The videos focused on different aspects of university life while showing campus buildings, landmarks and students, all put to a soundtrack. The campaign had 1.47 million impressions. The use of trends and memes is another proven way of drawing the audience in; one of the videos on the university’s account shows students miming the ‘Ew, David’ clip from the Netflix comedy series, Schitt’s Creek, known for its iconic one-liners. This is contrasted with more sentimental videos of graduation ceremonies with emotive songs as a soundtrack. The result is a multipronged attack on the senses, mixing the personal with the fun element of student life, together with the fact that they chose such a relatively new and trendy platform to cast their net on will see them reap the rewards of all those new students signing up for the autumn term.

Crocs! Love them or loath them, they are as divisive as Marmite, but they are using every trick in the marketing book on TikTok and appealing to new consumers after leveraging the platform to amplify brand awareness. The bright colours and basic design leave the shoe itself open to all kinds of creativity. Hashtags are uber important on social media and Crocs has taken full advantage of that fact, 1.3 million videos were created using the hashtag #StrapBack to bring Croc customers together to show what was possible with the back strap of the shoe. Crocs encourage and enable wearers to create their own content, empowering the customer and making a Crocs community within the wider TikTok community. Limited edition products are dropped in ‘Croctober’, a month-long celebration for fans of the brand. Catchy songs and beats are put to videos customising Crocs with couples getting on board with matching designs. They are even breaking into the pet market with mini versions for cats and dogs. After all, the internet has seen animal videos going viral since social media began, that’s what it was invented for!

Food characters are a staple of Marks and Spencers, think Colin the Caterpillar and Percy Pig, so when they launched their fruit Omballs accompanied by Omballs’ choccy chums it was no surprise that they were a hit too. What was a surprise, however, was the popularity of their TikTok videos. The M&S ad for Valentine’s Day last year received 18.5 million impressions, and the Omballs ad stands to continue with that success, garnering 12.7k likes in the first week. The M&S Food TikTok account is awash with content featuring Percy and Colin in topical skits, appealing to a younger audience. According to M&S bosses, their profits from the previous year can be directly linked to their TikTok performances, proving that the platform can yield significant financial success.

‘Room 4D’, is an IOSCAPE STUDIO and MARBELLA INTERNATIONAL PICTURES collaboration, written and directed by Tony Bianchi and produced by Franky Lankester – who plays a significant role in the film. Sarah Spendlove is cast as the lead, playing Dr Charlotte Goettling. Her half-sister Debbie is played by Nicole Moerland, director of Marbella Film School. In addition to Sarah as the lead actress, most of the students from the school were cast to fill various roles in the production. There are also cameo appearances made by established actor Damian Chapa (Blood In, Blood Out).

The Costa del Sol’s stunning and diverse locations make it a suitable place for all types of films. Living here in beautiful Marbella made our choice even more evident. We could not be more grateful for the support from local authorities and Ibusinesses.recallmeeting our Mayor in London about four years ago and having a conversation about filmmaking in Marbella. She asked me: ‘Franky, why are they always making Gangster films about Marbella?’ Her question got me thinking, and I knew I had to do something completely different. So I did, and ‘Room 4D’ was born.

‘Room 4D’ is certainly set to shine, already receiving many industry accolades. It will be screened during the Marbella International Film Festival early next month.

Following that, we have several meetings planned to get the right distributor as well as looking into presenting our film at other festivals too. We are sharing regular updates on our Instagram @marbella.internationalpicturespage: & @frankylankester

Marbella Film School students had the opportunity to portray their talents in a new thriller, produced and shot entirely in Marbella.

By Olivia Bella - Manager at Marbella Film School Q & A with the producer Franky Lankester:

‘Room 4D’ has been selected for the Marbella International Film Festival and will be screened between the 5th and the 9th of October 2022 in Puerto Banus, Marbella where everybody is more than welcome to watch what we’ve created.

A few years ago a girl went missing after a night out in a club in Marbella. Sadly, she was taken by predators and has not been found Havingsince.twodaughters myself, it’s the worst thing you can imagine to happen to your children. Hence, Tony Bianchi - the writer and director - and I were inspired to create a relevant and captivating story that takes place in Marbella. Our goal was to develop a feature film working exclusively with a local cast and crew.

l How was your experience working with Marbella Film School? I’ve known Nicole for an extensive time and we aimed to get all the students involved in the project. We were thrilled to see all the new talents emerge; they all provided a fantastic performance.

l What are your plans for the film?

FRANKY SPEAKING

l Why did you choose Marbella as the filming location?

l What inspired you to be part of this production?

l Can you tell us about your favourite moments during filming? Every project has plenty of memorable moments. The production is usually taking you to locations you wouldn’t normally go, anywhere from the most beautiful to the most peculiar places. There is often a sense of adventure and excitement. In addition, you have the chance to meet a lot of new people who share the same interests.

Birthdays, graduations, and holidays missed. Months of school or work bypassed. Social bonding and outdoor recreation replaced with a sweaty Joe Wicks and binge-watching Bridgerton As freedoms have been curtailed, doors shuttered and events cancelled, the absence of new experiences and what experts call memory milestones have resulted in disorientating mass perceptions of time. For every homeschooling parent experiencing the seconds, minutes, hours... crawling glacially past, there’s another one of us feeling two years just vanished in the blink of a bloodshot eye, stolen, or perhaps suppressed in our psyches due to the sheer lack of quality content (outside of Netflix).

Physicists working in the realm of quantum computers (a topic I’ve shied away from writing about several times since it makes rocket science seem straightforward) have demonstrated a more stable way of storing quantum information by creating an incredible, never-before-witnessed phase of Youmatter.might be surprised to realise you already know several “phases of matter”. Easy to identify phases of matter are gas, solid and liquid.... This isn’t one of those. Despite there still being just one flow of time present in their experiment, this new phase has the benefits of two time dimensions, the physicists report (If you’re already lost, console yourself with the fact you’ve probably had more sex than anyone creating extra time dimensions). And how do you think they achieved this remarkable / baffling feat? 10 points if you guessed lasers. Actually, no points if you guessed lasers cos in science it’s always fucking lasers isn’t it?! Whether it’s optical disk drives, eye surgery, self-checkouts, advanced weaponry, underground pyramid location, printer scanners, precision welding, Pink Floyd concerts or potential ways to kill James Bond... it’s lasers. In this case, the physicists, headed by Brian Neyenhuis at Quantinuum in Broomfield, Colorado subjected a quantum computer’s qubits to “quasi-rythmic” laser pulses based on the fibonacci sequence. Ok, I know there’s a lot to unpack there: What’s a qubit? Why do they spell it “laser” when it’s clearly lazer? And, ‘the f**k is the fibonacci sequence??!

• A qubit is a quantum bit, the equivalent in quantum computing of classical computing’s binary digit or bit. Made from an atomic ion which can be on, off or a combination of the two, it’s the basic unit of information in a quantum computer, although the fact it’s a “two-state quantum

Dynamical topological phase realized in a trapped-ion quantum simulator ( told you you’ve had more sex...), the scientists reveal how their new method has led to more robust and reliable atomic ions with stabilising “symmetries” introduced through the use of the sequential, non-repeating laser pulses. A further level of symmetry and stability is then borrowed from the extra time dimension which of course doesn’t actually exist but whose effects are nevertheless real (welcome to quantum physics...)

I was taking drugs and drinking almost every day. In the beginning I was having fun, socialising, enjoying the alcohol and so-called party drugs, such as LSD, ecstasy, MDMA and cocaine, but eventually I was using them all to escape from reality. I would use anything to change the way I felt – alcohol, drugs, prescription medication, relationships, sex, gambling, eating, work, exercise, crime, and pornography. Friends and family were concerned about my well-being, they would tell me I was drinking excessively, they tried to make me see the damage I was doing to myself. In the end my disease would take me to some very dark places; smoking crack; taking heroin; living on the streets; prison; and completely cut off from all of those that loved and cared about me. I first tried to get help 15 years ago, after my father died. The pain of his death increased my already excessive drug and alcohol abuse to the point where Joe is a 40 years old, single man. A sales executive from London. At his worst he was homeless, alone, abusing alcohol and drugs. Today he says life is incredible, full, and he is present for himself and for others. Here is his story:

To anyone struggling with alcohol I would say if I can do it, then so can you!! After 25 years of heavy drinking and drug abuse, I finally accepted that I could not stop and stay stopped on my own, I needed others. I thought I was a hopeless case, however the fight to stay clean and sober is nowhere near as hard as the fight I endured to get my fix. I never thought I could live a happy life without using something to change the way I feel. Today I can. I follow a few simple suggestions and the rewards are far greater than anything I could have ever imagined.”

“D

Being honest about what is going on for me is paramount to my peace of mind. I do my best to stay open minded and remain teachable. Of course, I have my ups and downs, but I have many great supportive friends who are there beside me on this magical journey. I feel as though I can now live life on life’s terms. I am almost six months clean and sober. My life today is incredible, it is full. I am present for myself, and others, and I am a productive member of society.

“I FEEL AS THOUGH I CAN NOW LIVE LIFE ON LIFE’S TERMS.”

uring my childhood both my parents drank, but not alcoholically. I took my first drink at about 8 years old, and despite being sick I loved the effect the alcohol produced. It gave me a feeling of ease and comfort, and life suddenly became Bymanageable.theageof15

NOW MY LIFE ANDIINCREDIBLE…ISWASHOMELESSHOPELESS, even I realised if I carried on, I would surely die. My drinking was out of control, and my life was in tatters - I reached out for help and ended up in what would be the first of several rehabilitation centres and mental health clinics. I had first heard of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) through a mental health clinic in February 2007. I did not know what to expect but it turned out to be a good experience. I don’t remember much of what was being said at my first meeting; however, I did feel for the first time I was not alone, that I was understood, and that people really knew what it was like to be me. The seed had been planted. Despite receiving help and getting clean I just couldn’t stick with it. My rock bottom finally came last year, and it was horrendous. A place I would today call “Hell”. My family and friends had turned their backs on me. I was homeless. I had lost nearly all my possessions. I was seriously underweight; I couldn’t eat properly. I was enduring sleep deprivation. I had a warrant out for my arrest and pending court appearances. I was experiencing severe depression, paranoia, and suicidal thoughts. I would describe my life at this point as non-existent and very, very, dark. I went back to AA, and they welcomed me with open arms. I finally surrendered to the fact that I am an alcoholic and an addict. I attend four (or more) meetings a week, where I do service and help others. I work the 12-step program, have a sponsor who guides me, and a connection to a power greater than myself.

There are meetings of Alcoholics Anonymous, with friendly people who will understand, held daily throughout the Costa del Sol. Meetings are free to attend, and anyone who thinks they may have a problem with alcohol is welcome.

62 Anyone can invest in property with Mojo Capitals, and thanks to their innovative concept you can reap the financial rewards of the Spanish housing market too.

There is an impressive, extra benefit to this venture too, and that is a lower taxa minimum of 60% tax-free!

A transparent and trustworthy endeavour Mojo Capitals is identical to any other aspect of Mojo Estates, insofar as the gents understand the importance of trust, so they aim to be transparent with their clients in every way. There is a certain professionalism in how the team conduct themselves, which makes them an appealing choice to do business with. As Per says, “People believe in us”, it is this honest attitude which fosters an environment of openness. Disclosure includes keeping investors up to date on what is happening in the company, usually in the form of videos, reports, and onsite meetings, welcoming clients in to see what is being accomplished with their money. “Being visual and interactive is a good way communicate”,toadds ThePer. investingagreegentlementhatina

Per explains, “Investors will become a shareholder in a company that invests in property, that property will only be active for a maximum of six years, we buy the property outright, with no loans, no mortgages, and they then sell them within five years. The fastest and best way to produce a fruitful profit, with no risks, is to liquidate the company and investors will receive their shares – taxfree! Then repeat with a new company”.

Per Møensted and Jacob Johansen have added another branch to their magic money tree. Mojo Capitals has joined the House of Mojo and as the first Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) on the Costa del Sol, it is a sure-fire way to yield a profitable return on your finances.

“To make money in the property market is time-consuming,” says Per, “not to mention uncertain”. Luckily, the team are experienced in buying, selling and managing properties. They control almost everything themselves with inhouse lawyers and real estate agents. “It is also about knowing where to look and whom to speak to”, concludes Per.

How is this possible?

The difference with this real estate trust compared to other companies is that they have the House of Mojo support.

As a bonus, a new law implemented this year, makes building and renovation faster! This unique and advantageous Real Estate Investment Trust is the gift that keeps on giving!

Along with Per and Jacob, the Danish Head of Capitals, Joachim Schiødtz, has a strategy that will achieve an optimum return on your investment. Over six years they ensure that clients receive at least 10% of their money back per annum; that’s higher than the average percentage on the market. The minimum outlay amount is €100,000, this will be used to buy the most lucrative properties, subsequently, the gents will sell them at an opportune moment within 5 years.

68 KEEP IT REAL INVESTING IN MARBELLA PROPERTY The Right Home in the Right Place Fabulous views from Vista Lago Residences

Although all property, by definition, is a solid investment, we use the adjective loosely, meaning an investment that will give us the best return possible, and that can only be achieved if the house we buy is as appealing to others as it is to us.

So what makes a welllocated Marbella home such an attractive investment, apart from being a beautiful residence in the right place?

Another reason is climate, and that means more than the sunny Spain we all know about. Marbella has a micro-climate, protected from the excess heat from the north by the Sierra Blanca mountain range, resulting in a warm and pleasant temperature with just enough rain to keep the grass green and the reservoirs filled, most of the time.

Article by Vivion O’Kelly

While ranking number 46 in population size in Spain, marginally smaller than the cities of Salamanca and Huelva, for example, it covers a large area that has not been overbuilt, compared to most of the other tourism towns along the rest of the Costa del Sol. But more importantly, development has been controlled to prevent the building of numerous high-density low-cost holiday home developments. Many foreign tourists might be surprised to know that most of the luxury homes along the beach fronts on both sides of Marbella are not owned by wealthy foreigners, but wealthy Spaniards. They value their exclusivity, and they want to keep it that way.

KEEP IT REAL

There is no single answer, because there is no single reason why more and more people are lining up to purchase luxury properties in the Marbella area. To some extent, it has to do with the development history of the area. Marbella was never a mass tourism destination.

Although it may appear to fly in the face of logic, the value of high-end properties in the Marbella area has increased since the pandemic, and according to many experts in the field, it will continue to rise in the foreseeable future.

While the shock to the world economy could be expected to adversely affect property prices worldwide, this is not the case with regard to the highest end of the property market in Southern Spain. This is partly due to a historic trend seen over decades, and partly due to the demand, at this time, for luxury living in relatively isolated splendour. Or to use shorter words: getting away from it all, but not too far away. A wise long-term investment is one that looks far into the past and far into the Accordingfuture.toPanorama – Marbella’s longest established real estate agency – in their 2022 Marbella Property Market Report: “Marbella and its adjacent municipalities reached historic sales peaks in the high-end market in 2021 and this trend has continued unabated into 2022, increasing by the month.” They expect this historic strong demand to continue in the immediate future and to gently decelerate in 2023.

The report goes on to say that not even the war in Ukraine has deterred people from investing in Marbella.

And then we have the nitty gritty: the economy at this delicate time in our lives.

DESPITE THE TREMENDOUS ECONOMIC

Lifestyle is clearly the main factor here, and the quality of one’s lifestyle is directly linked to the quality and exact location of one’s home. A solid investment means exclusivity, both in the property itself and its location. It also means sustainability and without a doubt the property must have all the amenities needed close by and extensive facilities in the villa itself. If all these boxes are ticked you can be sure it’s a solid investment.

The internationally recognised BREEAM certificate is especially attractive to investors in that it adds value to property through sustainability and quality construction, resulting in increased market value and long-term resilience. It is, in effect, a guarantee of peace of mind when it comes to signing on the dotted line, and peace of mind is especially attractive to all of us at this time.

Vista ResidencesLago

KEEP IT REAL

Vista Lago Residences is a perfect example of ticking all the boxes when it comes to property investment. This sustainable, luxury development of 18 individually designed villas is being built on the only high plot left with magnificent views between the famous La Zagaleta residential development and the iconic La Concha Mountain. The area is a gated 200-hectare country club estate called Real de la Quinta, which borders a UNESCO Biosphere reserve, an area which just recently became Spain’s 16th National Park – a fact in itself that will increase the value of any property close by. Real de La Quinta offers unequalled amenities such as a lake for watersports and swimming, a lake club, an executive golf course, a boutique hotel, a spa and wellness centre, an exclusive restaurant, an equestrian centre, jogging trails, cycle routes and much more.

All Vista Lago villas have infinity pools, large terraces, ample gardens and spaces for home offices, entertainment rooms and gyms. Add to this the privileged location, at just 15 minutes from the centre of Marbella, a short drive to the beaches, and the most magnificent and unique views over the Mediterranean, Gibraltar and the African coast beyond, and you have something that is little short of absolute perfection.

And last but not least, having the peace of mind of living in a sustainable home. Real de la Quinta is the first project in Spain that has received the infrastructure planning certificate issued by BREEAM, the world’s leading organization for sustainability valuation. And Vista Lago has also applied for this certification in the design phase.

fabric is KENTE, the most traditional of African fabrics. Its origin dates back to the twelfth century and due to its high cost, particularly the silk one, it was used only by African royalty. Or the BATIK in Indonesia; an ancient technique that consists of stamping fabrics with hot wax. The list goes on and on since this is a centuries-old art. The use of fabrics in decoration is due to many factors ranging from comfort to the history they convey. They keep behind them trials and errors, and a cultural heritage with a great variety depending on the techniques and materials with which they have been made.

Take for example textile workshops; many of them with ancestral techniques where you can discover treasures such as the famous IKAT. Originally from Southeast Asia and typical of the island of Mallorca, this textile has become an essential part of fashionable Mediterranean decoration.

“The whole design of the seating area overlooking the pool was created to ensure that each part is comfortable and cosy, and yet everybody is in visual communication with everybody else using these spaces.”

“The original concept here was to create the ultimate holiday villa,” says Jason.“That’s how it started. Like most things, you begin with one idea and it just morphs into something totally different. In any case, our idea was to have a villa where, once the windows have been opened into the walls, there is absolutely no difference between the inside and the outside, so you are literally living the concept of the outdoor/indoor lifestyle, with all the comforts of the interior. It is the kind of place where you can imagine arriving with family or friends on the Côte d’Azur or Marbella, and when you open the front door and walk inside, your excitement level just Asrockets.”itwould, although given the exterior view from the front, most of us ordinary people would be quite excited already as we drive onto the property. The basic architectural design is a minor masterpiece of simple form and function: perfect symmetry in wood and stone that seems to float lightly over the structure, binding the tall upright elements into a single unit and, as it turned out, giving the building a slightly Oriental feel to it. You just know that the interior will not disappoint.

Traditional materials in a totally modern design make this villa, designed essentially for summer living, a unique and magical all-year-round home Article by Vivion O’Kelly

THE ULTIMATE HOLIDAY HOME

81 Home Couture

We talked to Jason Harris about Villa Azura and while not actually jumping up and down with excitement, his tone would suggest deep satisfaction with his latest project. “I’m really happy with it,” he says, and coming from the CEO of the international awardwinning UDesign company, that speaks volumes. Hardly surprising, because we’re talking here about a villa that is truly unique, if the grammarians will forgive the superfluous adjective. It’s not a huge villa, relative to most UDesign projects, but actual floor space, in this case, is no more than a concept. Add the pool and terrace areas to a building designed specifically for summer living, where the gap between inside and outside living has been almost blurred to oblivion, and it is indeed conceptually large.

The pool is the centre of everything, as it should be in the ultimate holiday villa. It’s exactly as we imagined it would be finished. We see a holiday home as something different from a normal home, although we also designed the villa for year-round living.”

“This is why we focussed our design on the holiday concept. When on holidays, you’re in a totally different environment, where the family does not have to be separated. So it made no sense to have a villa with lots of different rooms that would keep people apart. We thus created this beautiful space with the pool as the family focus. There are sunbeds facing the pool, sunbeds

“You’re met with a composition garden of Bonsai trees with rocks and cacti. This is your centrepiece. This is what greets you. As with all our designs, we use nature wherever we can, and we’re always trying to find that balance between the manmade and the natural, between plants, trees, even rocks, because when you illuminate a rock, there’s something magical about how light reacts to it, and even in the daytime it still looks beautiful, especially against those colourful flowers. Going beyond this point, you see the lovely spacious lounge with doubleheight ceiling, the living and television area on the right and a stunning openplan kitchen on the left.” Open plan means something special in UDesign. It does not mean that a kitchen has been hacked out of a lounge area to save space, but that life in a warm climate, especially on holidays, demands a different approach to interior design and layout. It calls for a large central area that will be used by all the family, even those who cannot avoid having to work in an office occasionally while on holidays.

“We all tend to live a life where the parents go one direction and the kids another, each doing his own thing instead of being together,” says Jason.

“We wanted to create something perfectly proportioned: any bigger would be too big and any smaller too small. It’s all about comfort and intimacy, which would be lost in a bigger space.”

looking to the right and to the left, and then you’ve got these lovely seating areas with your bar, your television area, your outdoor kitchen area and barbeque, so all the family and friends can spend their time in full view of each other, all in different areas, perhaps doing different things, but all together as well.

“The textures and patterns of nature against the worked stone and wood, with the extraordinary garden composition in the centre: it all makes for a beautiful open space. The hallway, you’ll notice, is not really a hallway, but an essential part of the open ground floor.”

Ah yes, but who wants to live in a holiday home all the year round? Well, we must remember where it’s located, in an area whose winter has a different meaning from the northern European concept of the word. And also, don’t forget the ever-thinning line between the daily routine of having to work in a particular place at a particular time and working from home: every cloud, even one as dark as the latest virus, has a silver lining. This is a line that UDesign have identified and reacted to by ensuring the office be located close to the living area.

“It’s a response to the way we live these days, the way we’d like to live. Sitting at your desk in the office in this villa, you’re not cut off from the rest of the house, and something we all like to do while working at our desks, even if we do not care to admit it, is to glance at the television once in a while. The placement of the office in our day has become very important, because so many of us work from home. And important too is the fact that, if you want privacy while working, you simply close the door,” says Jason.

Villa Azura has been designed by Jason and his talented team for those for whom living a full life means living the way you’d like to live, for whom – without trivialising the concept – life itself is a holiday. Some say why, some say why not?

The way we live, the way we’d like to live. That just about sums it up, the difference between doing what we do and doing what we’d like to do.

Traditionally a one-evening affair held on the rolling greens of the Magna Marbella Golf Course, this annual car enthusiasts’ fest held on the last Thursday of every July had slowly grown in stature and participant numbers from around 110 cars in 2017 to 150 by 2021. Then, barely two months before the 2022 edition, the organisers and their sponsors dared to dream up an even bigger and better event.

t had to happen sooner or later. After a tentative return to normality in July 2021 during the stop-go days of the pandemic, the Magna Supercars Concours d’Elegance has morphed into something bigger and better. Concours d’Elegance, which will stand it in good stead as it attracts greater international participation over the coming years. Due to the not insignificant value of the cars taking part, exclusivity has always been part and parcel of any top level concours d’elegance event. The famous 1930s quote from Brooklands, the UK’s first purpose-built motor racing circuit, “The right crowd and no crowding” certainly applies here.

Spread over three evenings, with the Best of Show Awards as the grand finale, the new concept was re-branded as the Costa del Sol

TORQUE TALK I

Due to the not insignificant value of the cars taking part, exclusivity has always been part and parcel of any top level concours d’elegance event.

The debut Costa del Sol Concours d’Elegance opened on the evening of Wednesday 26th July with the judging of the Hypercar Class on the lawns of the stunning Anatara Villa Padierna Hotel, where invited members of the international automotive media elite were Dividedresident.intotwo categoriesHypercars and Hypercars Barchetta - this first part of the event attracted 27 Hypercars from 10 exclusive marques. After much deliberation the judges gave the respective Class wins to the Pagani Huayra and Aston Martin V12 Speedster.

Costing over one million euros each, Hypercars are mostly hidden away in private collections, and are thus a huge draw. Already judged at Villa Padierna the day before, the Hypercars present at the Magna Marbella Golf Course on the second day were on static display only.

Embracing Supercars and Classics, the second day of the Concours d’Elegance contest featured an eclectic collection of over 120 cars ranging from WW1-era veterans to ‘50s American cars, and cutting edge supercars from the likes of Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren and Porsche. With Hispano Suiza as the ‘featured marque’ the audience was treated to the unprecedented sight of the 1919 Hispano Suiza that once belonged to King Alphonso XIII of Spain standing

A newly restored 1954 Porsche 550 Spyder took the 1950-60 Class, while another Porsche, an original 1964 904 GTS with a significant racing history, pipped the rare one-of-17 ASA 1000 GT Spider to the 1960-70 Class win. Top award for the 1970-1992 Class went to the 1985 Ferrari 288 GTO, while another mid-engine, twin-turbo V8powered supercar, the 2022 McLaren 765 LT snatched top spot in the 19922022 Class.

Coches Relevante (Significant Cars) is a new Class introduced this year for cars of historical significance. Its first ever winner was one of the two Aston Martin DBS Prototypes built in 2006 and revealed in the James Bond movie Casino Royale that same year.

Fittingly, the third and final evening of the Costa del Sol Concours d’Elegance was held in Puerto Banus where some of the Hypercars and Classics were displayed in a roped off area against the fitting backdrop of superyachts, the sun-drenched Mediterranean and La Concha.

As the setting sun slowly dropped below the horizon and a cloak of darkness descended, the Best of Show Awards were presented to the owners of the 1919 Hispano Suiza and Aston Martin V12 Speedster for the Classic and Hypercar Classes respectively. On cue with the well-deserved applause for the winners, a spectacular fireworks display punctuated the night sky across the harbour, marking the colourful end to an event the organisers promise will be even better in 2023. The Hypercars and Classics were displayed in a roped off area against the fitting backdrop of superyachts, the sun-drenched Mediterranean and La Concha.

Since it’s a sealed, indoor space, pests are not an issue, so pesticides are not needed and crops are free from outside contamination such as E.

Once again, science may be coming to our rescue (or at least prolonging our existential death rattle).

Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA), also known as Vertical Farming involves creating fully managed indoor environments for the growing of plants, where everything, including water, temperature, humidity levels, ventilation, light and CO2 can be artificially provided and managed to maximise yield. CEA facilities represent sheltered, highly efficient ecosystems where plants grow under special LED lights combined with hydroponic, aeroponic or aquaponic systems providing water and nutrients. Heaters, coolers, dehumidifiers, humidifiers, ventilators and CO2 enrichment all regulate the environment. Vertical farms can grow crops year round, 24 hours per day and are unaffected by adverse weather conditions which cause crop instability in traditional farming. If it snows, the plants won’t mind... unless the workers can’t get the car out the drive to come in and press the buttons. On that note, reliance on manual labour will likely decrease with CEA as automation removes a lot of the grunt work inherent to agriculture.

We might spend more time these days looking at our phones than each other but we still come together, despite the best efforts of a million polarizing factors. Trump, Brexit, Russia, Boris... Marmite, to name but a few. All incite such fierce difference of opinion, division and antagonism, yet people still come together. Person A loves marmite whilst person B thinks it’s Satan’s boot polish. Yet we come together. Person C thinks Russia is brilliant. Person D is not Vladimir Putin. We still come together. Person E thinks Boris was an affable, winning PM. One of us, doing his best for everyone under difficult circumstances... Person F has a brain in their nut. Person G will be voting Tory again at the next election. Persons H through Z just can’t take the levels of facepalmery anymore and are now eating their own heads... Still... somehow, we come together. Despite so many obstacles, real and imagined, one of which quite recently involved two metres of physical space between us all, humanity comes together. And therein lies the problem... The global population just keeps increasing because no matter what barriers we face out in the world each 98

The WWF (Pandas not wrestlers) reports that due to contributing factors such as over-farming, pollution and droughts, half of the world’s topsoil has been lost in the last 150 years, whilst the physical space available to grow our crops or rear our livestock has also diminished as populations explode.

By Ian Greenland

day, we always end up back in each others beds. And although we rarely come together, nevertheless, in the last 50 years alone, the global population has more than doubled to 8 billion... and it’s projected to cross 10 billion before 2060. With the Earth already buckling under the weight of us all (or at least our hubris), that’s simply unsustainable with our current setup. Whilst a few sit in their ivory towers eating caviar and babies, nearly a third of the world still hasn’t access to adequate food.

Whats more, TikTok’s recent announcement that they will be expanding max video length from three to TEN minutes just leaves even less space (and braincells) for anything else.

catastrophic over-packaging like plastics could be heavily mitigated. Imagine eating an organically grown banana picked just 10 miles away and driven to your supermarket the next day as opposed to one flown 5000 miles from Costa Rica. Theoretically it would be far cheaper, fresher and more sustainable than the current alternative. It would almost, I don’t know... make sense?!?!

99 coli. UV lights remove bacteria and viral pathogens (fucking viral pathogens!!) and the nature of CEA greatly reduces the need for herbicides and heavy machinery, whilst ofreducingdrasticallytheamountwaterneededforgrowth, by recirculating the supply. Traditional farming accounts for roughly 70% of global water consumption, whilst vertical farming practises reduce water use by up to 95%. Crucially, this reduction in water consumption comes with a huge increase in yield. As crops are stacked vertically in growing towers, the diminished physical footprint of CEA, combined with highly controlled growth can see a one acre vertical farm yield equivalent to 30 acres of a traditional farm, depending on the crops being grown. Research into the metrics of lettuce growth for example revealed a 20-fold per acre increase in production when comparing vertical to traditional outdoor farming. This was achieved using just 5% of the water per ton of lettuce.

It could actually happen too, with the world’s largest vertical farm recently announced for construction in Gloucestershire by Jones Food Company, vertical farming specialists formed in response to Brexit, long before the pandemic and the invasion of Ukraine put even more pressure on global supply chains. The proposed “skyscraper farm” equivalent to 96 stacked tennis courts is part of a plan to eliminate imports of soft fruits, herbs and salads within a Adecade.global solution is desperately needed so fingers crossed it pans out but as we’ve all seen though not all will acknowledge, you can pack a whole lot of stupid into 10 years...

The immediate carbon footprint of the CEA method was however estimated to be triple that of the traditional farm and herein lies the most significant hurdle to vertical farming bureaucracy,(disregardingcorruption and human shortsightedness) It takes a lot of energy to artificially light, heat and water the produce and whilst it’s conceivable and logical that this comes from renewable sources, the start up and maintenance cost for CEA technology is significant, however beneficial the long term, practical gains evidently are. Since a vertical farm can exist almost anywhere, provided the logistics of its construction and maintenance can be satisfied, even urban centres can sustain high crop yields and consequently, habitat destruction decreases.

Tamari

• pinch of baking soda

COSTA CUISINE

Tamari is the liquid that is created as a byproduct of making miso, a paste made from fermented soybeans only. While still relatively salty in taste, it typically contains less sodium than soy sauce. Tamari is usually smoother and richer in flavour than soy sauce, with the benefit of being made without any additives or preservatives.

MAKE TIME FOR 100

The difference between tamari and soy sauce is that soy sauce is the liquid that is formed from the process of brewing soy beans, wheat and salt together which is left to ferment. This mixture is then pressed and the liquid that is released is soy sauce.

1/2 cup gluten-free flour mix (or any type of flour will work)

Dating back to the 7th century AD when it was brought from China to Japan, it is most recognised as the gluten free version of soy sauce so for anyone with wheat allergies or gluten intolerances, tamari is a fantastic alternative.

One of my dearest friends, Soljee, is from South Korea, and I have spent quite a lot of time there. One of my favourite and quickest dishes to make is the Korean pancake.

Bettina, our resident foodie, offers her insider knowledge on plant based cuisine and takes us on a culinary journey as she travels the world in search of inspiration.gastronomic

INGREDIENTS

• 3 1/2 ounces asparagus spears (1/2 bunch), sliced lengthways

• 1 carrot, chopped into thin sticks

• 2 spring onions (scallions), chopped

• 1/4 cup tamari soy sauce

DIRECTIONS

Start off by mixing all the ingredients for the dressing in a small jar, pop the lid on, give it a shake and set aside. In a bowl, mix the flour, water and baking soda and set aside. Heat some oil in a frying pan (skillet) over medium heat. Add all the veggies and fry for 5 minutes until brown. Spread the veggies out evenly in the pan and pour over the batter until you have a big pancake. Cook for 5 minutes on each side until crispy and golden brown. Serve immediately, cut into slices, topped off with the spring onions, sesame seeds, coriander and the amazing dressing alongside.

• 1 tablespoon sesame oil

From my plant-based cookbook Happy Food.

Korean Pancake with sliced roots and chilli sweet and sour tamari

• 1 teaspoon maple syrup

• black or white sesame seeds

To serve:

Tamari is becoming more popular and sometimes can be found in the Asian sections of large supermarkets. If you can’t find it there, you should be able to buy it from your local health food store or Asian specialty store.

• juice of 1/2 lime

This month’s ingredient is tamari, one of my pantry staples and a great addition of flavour to so many dishes!

•

• olive oil, for frying

• 1/2 garlic clove, peeled and grated

A quick dish that is guaranteed to be your new favorite: this plant based recipe is crispy on the outside and filled with veggie goodness on the inside, it is wonderful dipped in the best tamari dressing ever!

• 1/2 leek, sliced lengthways

For the dressing:

I love to use tamari in dipping sauces, dressings, in noodle and stir fry dishes, it can be added to soups and stews to enhance the flavours and I especially like to use it when making my non-meatballz and plant based burgers. It gives a rich umami taste which many people say they often miss when giving up meat.

• 2/3 cup water

• coriander (cilantro), optional

Remove from heat and add to the aubergines.

AubergineStirFry

I’m loving aubergines at the moment, and this simple aubergine stir fry has only the addition of lovely salad onions, noodles and a delicious and easy to make sauce. I encourage you to make sure that your aubergines are cooked through for long enough so that they are soft (not chewy!) as this makes all the difference to this dish. You can, of course, add any other vegetables you like to this dish if you have ingredients that need to be used up in your fridge. It’s a very versatile dish.

Add the salad onions to the pan with some more olive oil and a pinch of salt, and fry for about 1 minute on a very high heat.

For the Toppings: ½ small cucumber, sliced 1 lime, 1handfulhalvedfreshcoriandertspwhitesesameseeds

Cover the base of a large frying pan with olive oil and heat over mediumhigh heat. Add the aubergine slices in 1 layer and fry until browned on each side. Then add a dash of water to cover the base of the frying pan which will steam cook them, they are ready when they are nice and soft and the water has evaporated (this should take around 4-5 minutes). You may need to do this in 2 batches, or use 2 frying pans! Once done, remove the aubergine from the pan and set aside.

Meanwhile, add the noodles to a small pot of boiling water for aprox 2 minutes, so that they separate well, then drain.

Mix the sauce ingredients together in a bowl, then add this, along with the aubergine, salad onions & noodles to a frying pan and place over a high heat for a few minutes to warm through.

COSTA CUISINE

Divide between 2 serving bowls, then sprinkle with sesame seeds, and top with ½ lime, cucumber slices and coriander.
