n this issue, we’re keeping our passports close and our expectations high. From the balmy calm of Florida’s Gulf Coast to London’s ever-persistent hum, property is no longer just about location, it’s about perspective. What matters more now: skyline or sea breeze? Poolside stillness or the thrum of a capital?
Our States of Play feature focuses on LA, New York and Florida, where sun, style and shifting priorities define the high-end buyer’s
mindset. Florida, in particular, finds itself recalibrating: with price reductions, insurance hikes and economic jitters all gently nudging the market towards a more cautious pace.
Across the Atlantic, Buyer Behaviour explores England’s property market. London remains magnetic, but many are looking past it, for space, light and lifestyle, with smarter choices taking precedence over postcode envy.

Filigree’s Blueprint for Distinction: Crafting Philippines’ Finest Homes
As the Philippines’ luxury residential market continues to flourish, Filigree has established itself as a key player in crafting exceptional properties. It has built a community that expertly integrates exclusivity with tranquility and nature, particularly in the thriving township development of Filinvest City in Alabang, Metro Manila. With Botanika Tower 1 now ready for occupancy, Two Botanika is set to follow the benchmark set by its predecessor when it comes to embracing purposeful living.
Metro Manila, Alabang is famed for its masterful take on urban planning, where one can relish the ease of
city life with the splendor of a serene environment. Here, business districts coexist with affluent residential communities amidst lush surroundings and ample lifestyle conveniences, making the locale a preferred abode for the discerning crowd.
Filigree, renowned for its portfolio of upscale residences in the Philippines’ Metro South and Metro Clark, continues reimagining refined living with its flagship development, Botanika Nature Residences.
Redefining living spaces
The true hallmark of luxury goes beyond what is seen. At Botanika, it means a sanctuary that seamlessly integrates nature with deftly crafted living spaces. It is the calming feeling that washes over you as you enter an expansive room with wide

picture windows softly lit by the morning sun. The soothing effects of nature are palpable when you step into a spacious lanai overlooking a beautiful, landscaped garden. Every amenity is designed for a life well-lived, whether for thoughtful meditation or active pursuits, from the sundeck and sky lounge to tiered swimming pools, a well-equipped gym, and children’s play areas.
In an urban setting where people crave respite, Filigree reimagines condominium living at Botanika with ample indoor and outdoor breathing space. Made up of three towers, the low-density estate elevates city dwellings beyond conveniences.
Seventy percent of its total area is dedicated to open spaces and greeneries. Helmed by AECOM Singapore, the landscape allows residents to feel genuinely closer to nature while cultivating their passions.
“The ultimate plan is to have three low-density towers occupy only about 3,000 square metres out of the total 15,000 square metres of land. That’s how much we are giving our residents, and I think it’s unmatched and translates to a more exclusive and closer-to-nature kind of lifestyle,” said Daphne Sanchez, Filigree business head.
In harmony with nature
By partnering with US-based designer Architecture International and Leandro V Locsin Partners, Botanika Nature Residences offers a landscape that opens to nature. The property incorporates a terraced layout, providing sweeping views and good airflow while keeping the residences secluded. The buildings are constructed to simulate the natural topography of rolling hills, creating harmony with the landscape. It evokes a sense of community among residents through a central atrium that provides a vertical perspective of the village and a sunroof that naturally illuminates that space. Now ready for
occupancy, the designer units at Botanika Tower 1 are all elegantly furnished with top of the line materials and finishes that both encompass sustainable and comfortable living.
Meanwhile, the success of the first tower has inspired Filigree to push the boundaries of innovation, offering more inspiring spaces and deeper balconies that promise a true lanai living experience. As a result, Two Botanika—the second tower—features impeccably planned residential units designed by New York-trained interior designer Tina Periquet. This collaboration ensures that future residents can pursue their greatest passions, cherish meaningful family moments, and enjoy a life of uncompromised convenience.
Whether it’s a driven professional seeking a seamless balance between work and leisure or a young family looking to thrive in a nurturing and engaging environment, Botanika is designed to enrich every resident’s life with unparalleled space and a deep connection to nature.
Tucked within a quiet and exclusive part of Filinvest City, Alabang, Botanika is favorably positioned within reach of commercial areas, business centers, and lifestyle hubs in Alabang. With direct access to The Palms Country Club—an accredited member of the prestigious International Associate Clubs—residents enjoy the social and leisurely pleasures of a country club living just a few steps from home.
A criterion of excellence and sustainability
Filigree’s vision of world-class residential experience is grounded in purposeful design, environmental

stewardship, and refined craftsmanship—brought to life through Botanika Nature Residences. Its local and international recognitions speak to this standard. With a 4-star BERDE (Building for Ecologically Responsive Design Excellence) rating and Health+Wellness certification from the Philippine Green Building Council, along with Gold for Architecture and Silver for Interior Design for Two Botanika at the 2024 London Design Awards, these accolades affirm the level of care and detail that defines every Filigree development.
At Botanika Nature Residences, homeowners enjoy the rare gift of being amidst green surroundings while still being at the center of it all, where home is both a fortress and a doorway to personal connections and limitless aspirations. Filigree understands that the simplest things are the highlights of a well-lived everyday life, where being home means being connected with nature and oneself.

FUTURE FOUNDATIONS
ALAN PALAO, DIRECTOR OF PROPERTY ZONE GIBRALTAR AND REAL ESTATE VETERAN, INTRODUCES GIBRALTAR’S FIRST NEARLY ZERO ENERGY BUILDING: KEYSTONE RESIDENCE
Question: With over 35 years of experience in real estate, what is your favourite thing about working in Gibraltar?
Answer: Having been in real estate for a few decades, both locally and internationally, I can say that doing business in Gibraltar has its advantages due to its unique market. Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory located on the southernmost tip of Spain. With Morocco situated 14 miles away across the Strait we are at the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea, making the Rock a strategic military point throughout history.
Q: Sounds like Gibraltar’s real estate market has unique dynamics, particularly given its size, location, and political context. How do you see the market in Gibraltar evolving, and what do you think are the biggest opportunities and challenges for buyers and investors?
A: Becoming an international hub for the online gaming, insurance and crypto industries in recent years, Gibraltar’s property market has continued to grow for decades. And it doesn’t look like this will change any time soon judging by the number of developments programmed over the next decade.
Property Zone Gibraltar

e. info@propertyzonegibraltar.com www.propertyzonegibraltar.com
Today, with its robust regulation based on UK law, favourable tax advantages and imminent inclusion in Schengen, Gibraltar continues to attract businesses and their staff, investors and high-net-worth individuals in search of a little bit of Britain in the sun.
Gibraltar offers a high quality of life, which continues to make us a very popular destination: fuelled by the increasing number of people wanting to live and raise their families in Gibraltar, the great education system
ALAN PALAO Director, Property Zone Gibraltar
based on the British curriculum, safe community environment and easy access to weekend activities in Andalusia. We are an expanding, very well-connected industry and so it’s important to partner with an established player like Property Zone Gibraltar who can help you navigate through the sea of local nuances.
Q: What advice would you give to someone starting out in real estate?
A: Real estate can be tough at times, and not everyone is suited to it. Being confident and having good people skills is a must. Having a strong work ethic goes a long way, too. It’s a competitive industry, so being able to work fast and work smart are also brilliant skills to have.
Q: Can you tell us more about the unique features of your new off-plan development, Keystone Residence? What sets it apart from other property developments in Gibraltar?
A: Recognising the importance of sustainability in our world today, Keystone Residence is Gibraltar’s first Nearly Zero Energy Building. This includes green areas, gearless lifts, solar tiles, hybrid water heaters, and shower heat recovery systems. The rooftop will house a pool with stunning views, as well as various relaxation areas and a covered hot tub.
Also, we have designed Keystone Residence with the aim of selling primarily to end users. We obviously welcome buy-to-let investors too but most recent developments in Gibraltar have focused on the apart-hotel style, with a whole building of studio apartments specifically targeting them. However, we offer from studios up to four-bedroom properties and great amenities for the enjoyment of families as well as professionals looking for a base in Gibraltar.
Q: What is the timeline for this off-plan development, and when can buyers expect to move into their new homes?
A: We are about to break ground and are aiming for the entire build to take no longer than 27 months. We have full planning permission and are fully funded. We have partnered with a renowned international contractor and are raring to go.

Discreet, in demand and still defining prime London, Belgravia remains a favourite among serious buyers
elgravia has long held its place as one of London’s most sought-after neighbourhoods. With its quiet, treelined streets, white stucco-fronted houses, and position between Knightsbridge, Mayfair and Chelsea, it continues to appeal to both UK-based and international buyers looking for privacy, elegance, and long-term value.
“Belgravia has enduring appeal among international high-net-worth’s and at the end of last year sold some of the area’s trophy homes to individuals from across the globe,” says Richard, Director at Savills Sloane Street. “Several of these properties had been in the same ownership for more than two decades and the buyers saw the opportunity that the sales presented as often these are assets that can pass through generations of the same family without reaching the market.
“Some of the purchasers had extremely specific search requirements in terms of location, orientation, and internal layout while others weren’t looking to buy but all were motivated when the right home became available,” he adds. “People really buy into the sense of neighbourhood, village-like feel, history, architecture, restaurants and boutiques in Belgravia and these deals reflect the new generation of global buyer who is choosing to make Belgravia their home.”
Richard Gutteridge, Co-head of Prime Central London at Savills, sees Belgravia’s position
strengthening. “Prime central London remains a place that people want to invest, live and work in and its stability in a global context, along with the value on offer, makes it an attractive option for people wanting a base or a long-term home.
“Belgravia saw the highest proportion of £5 millionplus sales in 2024 (13%), the first time it has taken this dominant position since 2020, overtaking Chelsea which was ‘number one’ in both 2022 and 2023,” he adds. “Belgravia is perhaps best known for its grand Georgian townhouses and indeed demand for houses versus flats in 2024 was at its highest level across London (63% vs 37%) since 2021.”
Jamie Marshall, Sales Director at JLL Residential, highlights the area’s combination of historic character and modern amenities. “Belgravia is highly sought after due to its historical charm, exclusivity, prime location and diverse property offerings. Situated between Mayfair, Knightsbridge, Sloane Square, Pimlico and Westminster, it benefits from significant investments by the Grosvenor Estate in areas like Elizabeth Street and Eccleston Yards. “Belgravia’s property market has shown remarkable resilience despite economic fluctuations.
It continues to offer consistent capital growth, making it an attractive option for long-term investment,” he says. “Currently, smaller freehold houses and lateral apartments are highly sought after. Larger family homes in prestigious areas such as Eaton Square and Chester Square continue to enjoy strong demand.”
Jamie Marshall Sales Director JLL Residential
Oliver Ingles Advisor
DDRE Global
“Belgravia is highly sought after due to its historical charm, exclusivity, prime location and diverse property offerings.”
Jamie also notes ongoing price growth. “Belgravia remains a top choice for global HNWIs due to its security, amenities and enduring allure. Recent data highlights a 4.7% annual increase in achieved prices (Oct–Dec 2024 vs Oct–Dec 2023), with flats seeing a 5.1% rise per square foot and houses a 3% increase. The average price per square foot stands at £2,106.”
Oliver Ingles, Advisor at DDRE Global, says lifestyle continues to drive interest. “Belgravia’s appeal starts with its access to some of the world’s best restaurants – 16 of which hold Michelin stars. The area offers an incredible range of cuisines, from refined Indian dining to high-end Middle Eastern establishments, catering to a global audience of discerning buyers.”
Oliver adds, “Elizabeth Street and Motcomb Street are lined with luxury boutiques, independent designers, and heritage brands. With Knightsbridge to the north and Chelsea to the south, residents have easy access to both areas. Whether it’s Harrods or the café culture of Chelsea, Belgravia provides the best of both worlds.”
Oliver points to favourable pricing for buyers. “Best-in-class period townhouses are transacting at around £1,800–£2,000 per sq. ft. – well below the £2,500 per sq. ft. average seen in comparable sales over the past decade. This suggests a market that is significantly underpriced relative to its historic performance.”
The area hasn’t been immune to economic and political shifts. “While domestic buyers have become more dominant, international interest remains strong, despite factors like stricter non-dom tax rules and geopolitical uncertainties,” says Jamie. “Rising borrowing costs and construction expenses have also influenced purchasing decisions.”
Oliver agrees. “Belgravia has become a highly price-sensitive environment. Buyers are cautious, often unwilling to even view a property if they feel the asking price doesn’t reflect current market conditions. That said, best-in-class properties on super-prime streets continue to attract strong interest, particularly from US and dollar-based buyers taking advantage of currency advantages.”
Jamie advises prospective buyers to be realistic about costs. “Buyers should weigh the importance of location versus property features against their budget constraints, as Belgravia commands some of London’s highest prices. They should also account for high buy-in costs and recognise that while the market performs well over time, it is not entirely immune to downturns.”
Oliver adds, “There are many nuances in the market to consider. Pricing can vary significantly depending on the street, the period of the building, square footage, amenities, and even the orientation of the property. Speaking with an expert who understands these factors ensures you gain access to the best opportunities. We, for example, have access to off-market properties that won’t be found on open portals.”
Rental demand in the area also remains strong. “Belgravia’s rental market offers an average gross yield of approximately 3.5%, making it attractive for buy-to-let investors seeking capital appreciation over time,” says Jamie. “The average rent per square foot for a two-bedroom flat is £70 per annum, and demand for large homes with outdoor spaces has grown significantly.”

BUTTERFIELD MORTGAGES LIMITED
IN THE
For those interested in the Prime Central London (PCL) property market, the UK has been facing a growing list of challenges. The recent Autumn Budget added further layers of uncertainty. Despite the challenges, demand from overseas investors remains strong, and London’s property market remains attractive.
At times like these, international investors need more than just a lender with the right mortgage product; they need professional advice and knowledge to help them understand significant market trends.
This was reflected in Butterfield’s recent research survey of UK buy-to-let investors. The findings showed the most desired quality in a lender was “expertise around tax and regulation.” Whilst Butterfield Mortgages Limited does not provide tax advice itself, it is perfectly placed to assist investors looking to acquire prime property in London and the home counties, given its extensive network and experience serving an international, high net-worth client base.

With a strong presence in the Far East, CIS, and local markets, we provide tailored investment strategies for investors, landlords, and tenants, both in the UK and overseas. Our diverse portfolio of prime new build homes spans London’s most sought-after postcodes.
BUYER BEHAVIOUR
While London still dominates, buyers are increasingly factoring lifestyle, space, and long-term value into decisions beyond the capital
ondon remains the strongest magnet for high-net-worth individuals looking to buy or rent luxury homes in the UK. Its combination of international appeal, education, culture, and business continues to give it an edge. But while the capital holds its ground, buyers and renters are increasingly exploring locations outside the city, driven by lifestyle choices, shifting work patterns, and evolving design preferences.
Jamie Hope, Managing Director of Maskells, points to the consistency of demand in Prime Central London (PCL). “The most desirable locations will always offer a mixture of close proximity to top schools and world-class amenities, whilst providing a sense of privacy and security,” he says. “The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea will always be in demand due to the number of excellent independent schools.” Mayfair and Belgravia, he adds, remain firm favourites “due to their prominence, easy access to some of the world’s finest boutiques and abundance of large homes that often surround exclusive private garden squares.”
But alongside the familiar prime postcodes, a quieter shift is underway. Buyers are not turning their backs on London, but they are expanding their view. As Alex Michelin, Founder and CEO of Valouran, puts it: “While the ‘golden postcodes’ of prime London will always remain desirable, there is an undeniable shift in HNWIs looking to purchase in other
areas with the space to better accommodate a modern lifestyle.”
One example is Queensway, a once-overlooked stretch next to Hyde Park that’s undergoing major regeneration. “The reimagination of The Whiteley… into a mixed-use development of 139 unique homes, a 109-key Six Senses hotel and 19 shops and restaurants, marks a long-overdue transformation,” says Alex. “With over £3bn being invested in the street over the next three years, it is definitely the area to watch.”
Outside of the capital, the pull of countryside living is clear. Louise Nicholson, Head of Cotswolds Lettings at Savills, notes: “Demand for country properties at the upper end of the market has increased over the last 12 months.” Some clients are testing the waters: “Particularly if they’re coming out of London, they want to know that a village or local setting is right for them and their lifestyle needs.” For others, it’s about a second home or a place to retreat to on weekends.
What these renters are looking for is specific: “Turnkey houses with a great internal specification, good amount of acreage and a sense of privacy,” says Louise. “In places like the Cotswolds, tenants will be looking for a picture-perfect honey-hued home in a well-connected village,” with proximity to restaurants and members’ clubs such as Daylesford, Estelle Manor or Soho Farmhouse.
Jamie Hope Managing Director Maskells
Alex Michelin Founder and CEO Valouran
“Demand for country properties at the upper end of the market has increased over the last 12 months.”
Design and amenities are now playing a central role in decision-making, across both London and regional markets. Michelin sees a major shift in expectations: “Gone are the cigar terraces and the enormous dining rooms. In are spas, cryotherapy chambers and meditation spaces, and a near obsessional focus on the bedroom… quality sleep.”
Jamie agrees that modern buyers “want features that will either improve their living experience, such as the latest home automation systems or incredible leisure facilities,” but they’re also thinking ahead: “Buyers want amenities and features that ultimately add value to the home.”
This applies to tenants as well. Isabella Birch Reynardson, Head of Super Prime Lettings at Savills, says, “At the very top end of the market, demand has been strong for flats… Most are using their place in London as a base rather than staying in hotels.” Around 60% of lettings she’s handled this year involved apartments with hotel-like facilities: gyms, pools, concierge services and meeting spaces. For many international buyers, the capital still plays a crucial role. “Foreign buyers have accounted for
approximately 70% of the market in Chelsea and 30% in Kensington over the past 10 years,” says Jamie. “Changes to the tax thresholds will undoubtedly impact their buying patterns, but the draw of London is still strong.”
Michelin notes that the £5-15m segment is particularly active: “Wealthy overseas purchasers increasingly turn their focus to smaller, high-value homes rather than going all out and buying their main home here.”
But it’s not just about London versus the rest. The current market allows for both. Michelin summarises it well: “This is a good time to enter the London property market. Prices have not grown for over 10 years… on a relative basis the city is looking pretty affordable.” At the same time, the appeal of areas like The Bishops Avenue, Hampstead, and even countryside settings like Henley or the Cotswolds are giving buyers genuine lifestyle-driven alternatives. In today’s super-prime market, London still sets the pace. But for those willing to look slightly further afield, a new tier of exceptional options is waiting, and gaining ground.

Broad terraces step through the landscape, connected by elegant stone stairways, and framed by carefully planted evergreens
and foliage. The entire setting is one of understated grandeur, perfectly in keeping with the house’s heritage and the timeless beauty of its surroundings.

A ROUTE TO CITIZENSHIP THROUGH REAL ESTATE IN ONE OF THE CARIBBEAN’S MOST SOUGHT-AFTER LOCATIONS
Located in the heart of the Caribbean, Antigua and Barbuda is a twin-island nation celebrated for its breathtaking beaches, rich history, and vibrant culture. However, beyond its reputation as a tourist paradise, the nation exemplifies resilience, sustainability, and economic ambition.
The Citizenship by Investment Programme (CIP), which has been in operation since 2013, has been strategically structured for optimal national impact. With four distinct investment options, the programme has been designed to increase direct non-tax revenue to the government, provide investment capital for viable and high-growth enterprises in the private sector through its real estate and business investment options, and support the development of the nation’s new university, the fourth landed campus of the prestigious University of the West Indies. It is a comprehensive and transformative development model.
While historically many applicants opt for the donation option in the Antigua and Barbuda Citizenship by Investment Programme, an increasing number are choosing to secure citizenship by investing in real estate. The Antigua and Barbuda Citizenship by Investment Programme offers bespoke luxury, a smorgasbord of virtually limitless options on one of the Caribbean’s most unspoilt islands. It is indulgent island living, customised just for you. Whether your style is minimalist, contemporary, traditional or coastal, you are sure to find an investment property to suit your needs.
This approach to island luxury recognises that the contemporary understanding of indulgence no longer refers exclusively to six-star hotels and densely staffed properties. Rather, luxury is purely and exclusively defined by the one who conceives and experiences it. It is uniquely personal. From exquisite and secluded private island getaways, to boutique resorts and community residences, luxury
villas and space-efficient apartments, the discerning investor has limitless choices. An investment in real estate offers revenue-earning potential while at the same time owning access to a vacation home when rejuvenation and revitalisation are sorely needed.

ASTONISHING THINGS: THE DRAWINGS OF VICTOR HUGO
Few people today know that the author famed for Les Miserables and the Hunchback of Notre Dame also penned thousands upon thousands of drawings. This wonderful show at the Royal Academy sets that right.
It is but a glimpse into the vast collection but enough to reveal a potent imagination that inspired the famous novels – dreamlike landscapes, ghostly castles, haunting ruins, odd sea creatures and monsters, hallucinogenic mushrooms, hanged men. Hugo never received a formal art training nor concerned himself much with the art world as he lived by writing but he certainly knew how to draw
and experiment endlessly. Sometimes he just used ink blots (taches as he called them) to fill the paper with abstract visions; at other times he used stencils, fragments of lace, feathers and thumb prints with his inks, charcoals and gouaches.
Many of the works were created in Guernsey where Hugo had fled to evade the dictatorial regime of Louis Napoleon. He remained here into his late 60s until the fall of the French emperor. One of his last pictures from the Channel Island is a marvellously contorted view of Guernsey’s lighthouse, a metaphorical beacon in dark times. Architecture needless to say fascinated the author
of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Above all he loved to sketch fantastical castles, some imaginary others real. He was so taken with the castle in Vianden that he hired rooms there for several months and painted it with his usual expressiveness, all misty and lopsided, towering over the medieval roofs of the town. Just three rooms at the Royal Academy are turned over to this part of a much greater collection but what rare treats they hold

COLOURS!
Masterpieces from the Centre Pompidou
This exhibition at the Grimaldi Forum Monaco seems to be at a bit of a loss to define itself, so it’s come up with the promise of ‘exploring the modern history of colour’ through 20th century masterpieces.
The fact is that there’s no useful thread other than that the works have all been loaned by the Centre Pompidou in Paris as it gets ready to close for a major refurbishment. This is how Monaco comes to be in temporary possession of a treasure trove of over 100 works by artists ranging from Sonia Delaunay to Jean-Michel Basquiat, including Pablo Picasso, Amedeo Modigliani, Henri Matisse, Vassily Kandinsky, and of course Yves Klein, who famously trademarked a type of ultramarine known as ‘International Klein Blue’.
The Grimaldi Forum, now celebrating 25 years since it was opened by Prince Rainer, has a flair for drama. This show promises to make you ‘rethink their perception of colour in modern art through a sensory as well as visual journey’. To this end, visitors will first traverse seven monochromatic spaces infused with scents from a luxury perfume house and sound creations. After this a path takes them through a series of installations housing iconic pieces by top designers.
I don’t mean to be sniffy but it all sounds a bit like an airport Duty Free trail. Still well worth the effort in order to enjoy the light at the end of the tunnel in the form of the Pompidou treasures.

MATISSE AND MARGUERITE
“In my father’s time, we lived with his daily drama, which was painting.” These words from Marguerite Duthuit-Matisse’s diary capture what it was like growing up in the shadow of one of France’s greatest artists.
Marguerite was the eldest daughter of Henri Matisse (1869-1954). Born in 1894, she lived to the age of 88 but remains relatively unknown. Now, thanks to a major exhibition at the Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris, her story steps into the spotlight. The exhibition features more than 110 works, including paintings, drawings, prints, sculptures and photographs.
Marguerite was a constant source of inspiration to her father and is the only model who features in his works over several decades. Frank and intense, the portraits naturally enough reflect a father’s affection for his daughter, something of a mirror of himself.
This was due in part to the circumstances of her birth. The eldest of Matisse’s three children, Marguerite was born from a student fling with a model. Her early years were marred by sickness and she bore the scars of a tracheotomy operation throughout her life, concealing it with a black ribbon that features in many portraits.
She received scant formal education; her training was in her father’s studio where she was a daily witness to Matisse’s work. “The spirit of the family was entirely focused on father’s efforts,” she once said. She was a patient and goodnatured model, adapting to his ever-evolving styles – from Fauvism to more structured, geometric forms and beyond. When Matisse moved to Nice, Marguerite went too, becoming the subject of a major series of balcony portraits. Some of the last solo images of her date to the 1920s after which a professional model appears in the lively and colorful scenes. The two women became good friends.
Marguerite remained deeply involved in her father’s work, often acting as gatekeeper as collectors, historians, curators, and dealers vied for his attention. She supervised the printing of her father’s engravings, organised exhibitions and began the (never quite completed) full catalogue of Matisse’s work.
To coincide with the exhibition, the first ever biography of Marguerite is being published.

Highlights include works such as the 1929 painting of Ulysses and the Sirens by Christopher Wood and the marvellous 19th century Japanese woodblock print of a Woman Abalone Diver Wrestling with an Octopus, the title of which alone is enough to enthrall.
The gallery – Hastings Contemporary – is located under the cliffs on the seafront of the Old Town overlooking a fishing fleet that despite all odds is the largest beach-based fishing fleet in Europe. It’s a place much frequented by artists, photographers and daytrippers alike, creating a unique dynamic. The exhibition is composed of an eclectic mix
Ulysses and the Sirens
Christopher Wood, 1929 Kettle’s Yard, University of Cambridge
of paintings, prints, drawings and objects from as far afield as Japan and spanning 400 years.
Running in tandem with the show is The Sun Feeds the Wind which deals with the under-threat fishing community of Hastings, Sussex for the first time.
Until 14th September at Hastings Contemporary, Hastings, East Sussex, UK
HIROSHIGE: Artist of the Open Road
Join Hiroshige on a lyrical journey through Edo Japan, exploring the natural beauty of the landscape and the pleasures of urban life at the British Museum’s first ever exhibition of works by this master printmaker. Unlike most other print designers of his day, he came from a high ranging Samurai family but he nonetheless loved to depict ordinary people and folk customs.
Utagawa Hiroshige was born in 1797, a time when Japan was on the brink of change and opening to outside influences. He recorded people from all levels of society. He loved energetic city views as much as remote landscapes and impressions of the natural world. His gorgeous prints of birds and flowers show his poetic feeling for nature. In evocative landscapes we can
see the dawning of tourism as travel across Japan became increasingly possible and popular. Highlights include The 53 Stations of the Tōkaidō and 69 Stations of the Kiso Highway.
And while there is realism in the faces, figures and landscapes, all are defined by an exceptional awareness of design, the result in some ways of the medium in which Hiroshige excelled: the print. His work, being quite cheap (especially when it came to mass produced fans), was popular and this helped to spread his reputation. He remains to this day one of the most beloved of Japanese artisans.
Until 7th September at the British Museum, London, UK www.britishmuseum.org

GRAYSON PERRY: DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR
Sir Grayson Perry pops up everywhere these days. In celebration of his 65th birthday, the recently knighted national treasure has been given a show in the unlikely surroundings of Hertford House, an 18th London town house and home to Sir Richard Wallace’s collection of uber traditionalist art.
His response to the Wallace’s Collection –which includes the world-famous Laughing Cavalier by Franz Hals and Francois Boucher’s The Swing – is typically imaginative. There’s an awful lot to unpack but let’s start with the Sir Grayson’s latest alter ego – a deluded and impoverished East Ender (Shirley Smith) who has studied art and believes she is Lady Millicent Wallace, heir to Hertford House. Works by Lady Wallace (but in reality of course by Sir Grayson) introduce the themes of class, privilege, snobbery etc. all beloved of the artist.
To add another layer of complexity, the show opens with works by two real Outsider artists, Aloïse Corbaz and Madge Gill, the latter of whom exhibited at the Wallace in the 1940s. Lady Wallace soon disappears from the show and then Sir Grayson’s works are interlaced with items from the Wallace Collection including historic paintings, ceramics and armour.
AI and digital art have played a part in their genesis. Examples are the tapestry called The Story of My Life which places figures from Boucher in a psychedelic landscape. Sir Grayson speaks very much for and to the average ‘outsider’ in art. He is hugely popular thanks to TV shows. His exhibitions always get people talking.
Sir Grayson has been compared to a court jester, always clownishly dressed and poking fun at majesty but also accepting its largess with uncomfortable regularity. Whatever your view of Sir Grayson’s personae, the new works should be allowed to speak for themselves and they are –like him – bold, brash and colourful.

The Paris 1925 collection marks 100 years since the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes, the event that propelled Art Deco onto the world stage.
Inspired by the elegance and geometry of the era, Lito has created a collection that reflects its spirit with bold, structured designs and rich materials.
Each piece, from the Chrysler Ring and Bangle to tassel-adorned necklaces, draws from both architecture and fashion. Influences from Paul Poiret’s draping techniques and the sleek lines of the Chrysler Building shape the collection’s aesthetic. Deep reds, greens, and blacks, brought to life through rubies, emeralds, and black spinels, add depth to the designs.

DR KONSTANTINOS KANARIDIS ON THE TOOLS, TECHNIQUES, AND DETAIL BEHIND NATURAL LOOKING SMILE MAKEOVERS
Question: Cosmetic dentistry has come a long way – what advancements in materials and techniques have most transformed smile makeovers?
Answer: Cosmetic dentistry has come a long way. Ultra-thin porcelain veneers now offer natural results with little tooth reduction, while Digital Smile Design lets us plan treatments based on facial features and even preview the outcome. Improvements in composite bonding materials also offer stronger, more durable results that closely mimic the natural translucency of teeth.
Q: How do you ensure treatments like veneers and bonding look natural?
A: My approach to cosmetic dentistry is always rooted in personalisation and collaboration. I use digital imaging and mock-ups to match each patient’s vision, and work with skilled ceramists to ensure natural shading, texture, and other details. The goal is always a smile that looks seamless and suits their features.
Q: Has social media changed patient expectations in aesthetic dentistry?
A: Social media has influenced expectations, with many patients seeking celebrity-style smiles. It’s great to see that excitement, but my job is to guide them toward results that not only look amazing but also feel natural and fit their unique features. I stress the importance of a balanced smile that enhances natural beauty and suits the individual’s features.
Q: You’ve won multiple awards for your cosmetic work. What sets an exceptional smile makeover apart from a good one?
A: An exceptional smile makeover goes beyond just looking good – it blends beauty, function, and longevity. It’s about the fine details like shade, texture, and proportion, all working together to enhance facial harmony. The best results are those that bring confidence and joy to my patients while maintaining optimal oral health.

SIDONIUS IS A BOLD HILLSIDE HOME IN CERNOSICE, SHAPED BY STEEP TERRAIN, EXPANSIVE VIEWS AND INVENTIVE ENGINEERING
LANDSCAPE INTEGRATION
Located high on one of the steepest plots in Cernosice’s historic villa district, Villa Sidonius includes bold engineering and striking design.
This part of Cernosice, at the foot of Babka Hill, is known for its grand villas dating back to the early twentieth century. Today, it remains a sought-after area for expressive architecture, with no single style dominating, only scale and presence.
Faced with the challenge of a steep, northfacing slope, the architects turned this project’s constraints into its defining features. The result is a bridge-like structure supported by steel pillars, suspended above the hillside to capture sweeping views of the Berounka Valley and the Prague skyline. The steel frame spans 18 metres and supports a prefabricated system tailored to the slope’s demands.
Accessed via an underground tunnel and lift, the home includes a studio, fitness space, and service areas. The main level opens onto a sunlit terrace and pool, with living spaces designed to make the most of both the view and the limited sunlight. Landscape architect Vladimír Sitta shaped the surrounding slope into a slate-covered terrain dotted with birches, complementing the house’s dramatic form. Villa Sidonius is the outcome of close collaboration between architects, engineers, and the owner, all of whom were deeply involved in its creation.
EFFORTLESS FLOW
Bodrum Loft is the kind of place that doesn’t just host you – it wraps you in calm. Located among olive trees and overlooking the Aegean, each villa feels like an intimate private home.
Interiors are quietly confident: think natural textures, weathered stone, soft-toned timber, and handwoven textiles. Spaces are open yet grounded, with sliding doors that blur the line between inside and out.
The layout invites ease – linen-draped beds, deep sofas, and bathrooms that feel more spa than en suite. Muted palettes reflect the surrounding terrain, while locally crafted pieces bring in warmth and authenticity. Greet your days with light streaming across polished floors and birdsong drifting through reed-filtered windows.
Evenings wind down gently – a sunset, some nibbles, and starting all over again the next morning. Bodrum
The perfect retreat brings striking design and a sense of calm intention. Courtyards and terraces are extensions of the living space – places to read, share a bottle of wine, or simply breathe. Eco-friendliness is at the heart of everything here, from reclaimed wood finishes to rainwater use and passive cooling.
The on-site facilities encourage slow living – or, if you prefer, you can get your healthful kicks in with yoga sessions, sea swims, and long walks through pine-scented hills.

As high-end buyers rethink what matters most, Florida, New York and Los Angeles each offer a different answer
Matt Lane Senior Vice President & General Manager Southern Region, William Raveis
STATES OF PLAY FLORIDA
According to Matt Lane, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Southern Region at William Raveis, several key trends are shaping high-end real estate across Florida.
“New construction in many of the luxury markets remains strong,” says Matt. “Often these have taken the place of older construction damaged by recent storms and enables new buyers to enter the market in highly sought-after areas that are also FEMA compliant and offer better sustainability profiles.”
This shift reflects both necessity and opportunity, as builders and buyers prioritise modern, stormresilient homes with updated features.
As for where the demand is concentrated, Matt notes that coastal regions still lead the way. “These continue to be along the coast. East or West coast continues to be highly desirable and offer the warm weather lifestyles consumers continue to pursue.”
Florida’s natural appeal remains a core factor in its ongoing popularity among high-net-worth buyers.
However, recent shifts in the economic climate are making waves. “The market has slowed in recent months with a great deal of properties taking price reductions,” Matt explains. “There’s a lot of head winds including tariffs which seem to be a looming shadow over our economy and real estate markets.
Adding high insurance premiums, higher interest rates, and a higher cost of building materials to the mix further slows the market.” These realities are prompting more cautious behaviour among both sellers and buyers.
Despite the slowdown, the fundamentals of what buyers are looking for have remained steady. “This is pretty consistent year over year with outdoor spaces, large open kitchen and gathering spaces, high end finishes and coastal views being in demand,” Matt says. These features continue to drive interest in high-end listings, regardless of broader economic concerns.
“Most luxury buyers are already FL residents who are familiar with the area and looking to either move or invest in the area.”
One appeal of Florida real estate is its tax climate. “It continues to keep areas like Naples, FL at the top of the best places to retire in the US,” Matt notes. Tax advantages are an ongoing incentive for retirees and wealthy individuals considering relocating or purchasing second homes in the state.
Interestingly, the market is being driven more by locals than foreign buyers. “I don’t believe the international buyers are a major force,” Matt says. “Most luxury buyers are already FL residents who are familiar with the area and looking to either move or invest in the area.” This suggests that the market has become increasingly self-sustaining, with local demand playing a central role.
Still, climate concerns linger in buyers’ minds. “It certainly has impacted the market, especially along the coasts of FL where the highest property values tend to co-exist with the highest threats of storm risks to properties,” Matt explains. “The past 2 years have seen numerous hurricanes off the west coast and this has definitely swayed many buyers who have opted to stay off the coast.”
Looking ahead, Matt sees a mix of long-term promise and short-term challenges. “FL will always draw wealthy consumers looking for an active lifestyle. Short term there will most likely be economic and insurance headwinds that will roll with the general economic cycle of the US.”
In short, Florida’s luxury property market is adapting but remains attractive, especially to those already familiar with its benefits and trade-offs.

NEW YORK
To understand the current state of New York’s highend property scene, we spoke to Mary Fitzgibbons and Martha Kramer, both experienced real estate agents at Brown Harris Stevens. Together, they offered a grounded and up-to-date look at buyer behaviour, market pressures, and what continues to drive demand in one of the world’s most competitive property markets.
When asked about current trends, they explained that buyers at this level have time on their side. “Buyers in the luxury sector know exactly what they want – and they are willing to wait until they find it,” they noted. “With multiple properties in their portfolios, these buyers are rarely in a rush or under pressure, which gives them the flexibility to be highly selective.” While there’s a clear preference for move-in-ready homes, they added, “they will undertake substantial remodels if the property offers unique characteristics or exceptional potential.”
Design and lifestyle choices have also shifted. “There is a growing demand for privacy, outdoor space, and distinctive design elements that set properties apart. With the increased focus on wellness, amenities like private gyms, spa-like bathrooms, and home offices are also highly sought after.”
In terms of where buyers are looking, the agents pointed to several longstanding favourites. “The Upper East Side and Upper West Side remain highly desirable for their pre-war architecture, proximity to Central Park, and prestigious schools.” At the same time, “Tribeca attracts high-net-worth buyers with its spacious lofts, privacy, and celebrity appeal.” Other strong areas include Hudson Yards for its modern towers, and the West Village for its townhouse charm. “Billionaire’s Row on 57th Street continues to command record prices, making it a magnet for global investors seeking trophy properties with breathtaking Central Park views.”
As for market pressures, rising interest rates haven’t shaken this tier of the market too much. “Many high-net-worth buyers in this category make all-cash purchases, insulating them from financing challenges.” That said, they acknowledged that “the market has seen a slight cooling in terms of bidding wars and aggressive over-asking offers. Instead, buyers are taking a more measured approach, negotiating harder and being more selective.”
On what features are most in demand, they were clear: “Light, views, high ceilings, large windows, working fireplaces and grandly scaled rooms top the list.” They also added, “Larger secondary bedrooms

with en suite baths and extraordinary closet space are always desirable. Properties in newly renovated condition in luxury pre-war buildings are extremely rare and always sell quickly.”
International interest is on the rise again. “Since the waning of the COVID-19 pandemic, international buyers have made a notable return to the market,” they observed. “We are once again seeing increased activity from Chinese investors... Will the luxury
international buyer who has bought in London for decades now turn to New York? We know they are exiting the UK.”
Looking forward, the overall outlook remains firm: “There is never enough product to fully satisfy affluent buyers.” With limited supply and ongoing demand, particularly for rare or standout homes, New York’s luxury market continues to hold its place.

THE WILLIAM VALE
SKYLINE VIEWS, BOLD DESIGN, AND RARE COMFORTS: THE WILLIAM VALE BRINGS LAID-BACK LUXURY TO BROOKLYN
If you’re eyeing Williamsburg for your next stay in New York, The William Vale is worth a closer look. Towering 23 storeys above the neighbourhood, this hotel brings a dose of luxury to Brooklyn’s creative edge.
Each of its 183 rooms and suites features a private balcony, an uncommon perk in New York. Whether it’s Manhattan’s skyline or Brooklyn’s buzzing streets below, the views are part of the experience here. The architecture is sharp, the design smart, but it’s the setting that leaves a lasting impression.
For something extra special, the Vale Garden Residence spans two floors and includes two bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and a
living area with floor-to-ceiling windows. Local art lines the walls, and a freestanding soaking tub and rainfall shower elevate the main bathroom into something you’ll actually want to linger in.
The real standout is the private terrace, 1,632 sq. ft. of open-air space, complete with a jacuzzi, marble dining table, and city views worth toasting. Whether you’re planning a short break or want a more residential feel to your New York visit, this spot provides comfort with a front-row seat to the city.

LOS ANGELES
“Natural materials, particularly warm wood tones, and thoughtfully designed spaces” are among the defining features of luxury homes in Los Angeles today, says Yoori Park, Estate Director at Hilton & Hyland. “Buyers are increasingly gravitating toward homes that feel both inviting and refined, spaces that blend modern aesthetics with warmth and comfort, avoiding designs that feel too stark or cold.”
While style preferences have shifted, location remains consistent. “Los Angeles features several prime areas for high-end real estate investments, including Beverly Hills, Brentwood, Bel Air, and adjacent neighbourhoods like Santa Monica and Hollywood Hills,” she says. “Buyers continue to see long-term value in these areas.”
On the financial side, higher interest rates have slowed the pace of some deals, but only slightly. “The impact of rising interest rates on Los Angeles’ luxury home sales varies by price point,” Yoori explains. “When interest rates were exceptionally low, properties moved quickly, and high-end sales occurred at an accelerated pace. Now, as the market adjusts to a more typical rhythm, we’re still seeing high-end transactions, though not at the same rapid pace of the low-rate era.”
She also notes that while some buyers are more cautious, “there’s still strong demand for luxury properties as many high-net-worth buyers are less affected by interest rates and continue to make substantial investments in real estate.”
In terms of what buyers are looking for, the checklist hasn’t changed drastically, but certain features are rising in priority. “Buyers continue to seek open floor plans, indoor-outdoor living, well-thought-out layouts, beautiful kitchens, and spacious primary suites with generous closets,” says Yoori. “Views are also a key factor, though preferences vary – some prioritise ocean or city views, while others prefer a larger yard with a pool over a view.”
Wellness spaces are becoming more common, too. “There has been growing interest in wellnessfocused features, such as saunas and dedicated wellness spaces. Smart home technology is
sought after by buyers who value both luxury and convenience. Privacy is also an important consideration, as well as the desire for exclusivity and security.”
Tax policy has added some friction to the market, especially for sellers. “California’s tax policies, particularly Measure ULA, have had a greater impact on sellers than buyers in the luxury market,” says Yoori. “The added transfer tax on high-value properties can sometimes influence negotiations. While some may weigh tax implications in their investment strategy, Los Angeles remains a prime destination for luxury real estate due to its global appeal and strong market.”
International buyers continue to play a role in the top end of the market. “Many of them have the advantage of being all-cash buyers, which

“Buyers continue to seek open floor plans, indoor-outdoor living, well-thought-out layouts, beautiful kitchens, and spacious primary suites with generous closets.”
makes their offers more competitive,” she says. “While economic conditions, currency exchange rates, and certain regulations may influence international investment patterns, Los Angeles continues to attract high-net-worth buyers from around the world.”
Wildfires have also had an unexpected influence on market activity. “There has been an uptick in sales in Westside locations near Pacific Palisades, as well as in Beverly Hills and Bel Air. Many buyers who were impacted are still looking to purchase homes in these sought-after areas. However, securing insurance has become a challenge, particularly for hillside properties.”
As for international renters? They’re part of the story too. “International renters play a significant role in Los Angeles’ luxury rental market,” Yoori notes. “Many are drawn to Los Angeles for the exceptional architecture, breathtaking views, perfect weather, and the comfortable lifestyle afforded to its residents.”
Looking ahead, Yoori remains optimistic. “The future prospects for Los Angeles luxury real estate market remain positive, with steady demand expected to continue. While the market may experience short-term fluctuations due to factors like interest rates or economic conditions, the outlook remains strong. Los Angeles continues to be a global hub for business, entertainment, and luxury living… The city’s limited inventory of luxury properties and its desirability as a prime location for both living and investment will continue to drive demand.”

Inside Job Luxury Interiors ensured that every room across the property’s four floors had its own distinct identity, with unique bursts of colour in each space. At the same time, a consistent flow was maintained throughout by using a neutral palette as a
base.

The Mall of Africa, the largest and most impressive single-phase mall in Africa, anchors Waterfall City’s CBD, featuring over 300 shops and more than 30 restaurants.
As a ‘greenfield’ development, Waterfall City is not constrained by older infrastructure, allowing planners to create a new city from a blank slate, using the latest urban design principles. Six core urban design concepts guide Waterfall City: sustainability, safety, connectivity, smart technology, integrated mixed-use environments, and a human-centric, compact city approach.
Built according to sustainable principles, Waterfall City ensures every development is efficient, and eco-friendly. Many buildings utilise alternative energy sources, including the Waterfall City CBD’s 31 green-rated buildings. The fact that Waterfall City was chosen as the very first Best in the World winner of the Property Awards’ new Masterplan category recognises the world-class urban design framework of this thriving smart city.

A15-bedroom boutique hotel with a 100-cover bar and restaurant, offices, and conference spaces was transformed into a bold and imaginative retreat by Jeffreys Interiors. With a £3.75 million budget and a two-year timeframe, the vision was to create a one-of-a-kind destination that would stand apart from traditional venues. Designed as a fusion of eccentric wonderland meets countryside escape, the project embraced daring design, ensuring it would be a talking point for all who visited.

Located on a 150-acre country estate in Northumberland, the former cattle sheds were reimagined into an immersive, visually striking space. The aim was to craft an experience that was impossible to ignore, where guests would return time and again to explore a new room or rediscover a favourite retreat. Every space was carefully curated to create a sense of
The library was designed as a dark, moody retreat, with hand-painted tortoiseshell panels, Venetian plaster, and verre églomisé mirrors. In the restaurant, antique arches frame a mirrored private dining nook. The bathrooms became an attraction of their own, featuring emerald Venetian plaster, terrazzo tiles, and pink concrete sinks.
Each of the 15 bedrooms feature custom headboards, distinct fabrics, and cabinetry in a spectrum of colours, ensuring that no two stays are ever the same, solidifying the hotel’s status as a truly unique destination.
Millimetre Design Sdn Bhd was involved in two notable projects: Sentral Suites and The Bousteador. For Sentral Suites, the client sought a design that would add commercial value and foster interactions among different generations and local residents. Residents expressed concerns that the building might not represent their heritage or harmonise with the community. Millimetre Design responded by creating a design inspired by traditional games, integrating them into the complex’s fabric.
This approach aimed to honour Malaysia’s heritage and create a vibrant tribute to the nation’s cultural diversity. For example, the Sepak Takraw lobby features patterns mirroring the rattan woven ball used in the game, with lighting and materials capturing its essence. The Congkak Lobby reflects the game’s rhythmic motion, with carved wooden walls and warm lighting evoking traditional Congkak boards.
The Bousteador, a 23-storey building located in Mutiara Damansara, Petaling Jaya, draws
inspiration from Boustead’s long-standing reputation and adaptability. The design aimed to meet various needs while showcasing the company’s strength, business acumen, and culture.
A three-pronged approach – ’A Game Changer’, ‘A Post Pandemic Office’, and ‘Inspired Spaces’ – was adopted, focusing on creativity, integrity, and innovation. Outstanding bold designs, glass doors, and one-of-a-kind interchangeable layouts allowed spaces to be reconfigured easily for coworking, seminars, training, events, or private meeting areas.
The ground floor features an open office with private areas sectioned by glass panels, softened by smooth curved walls. The 3rd, 4th and 10th floors have similar layouts with textured countertops and lounge areas. The design aimed to create a transformational space, which resulted in a 62.4% reduction in office space. Equipped with technology and moveable screens, it highlights the company’s commitment to flexibility and innovation.

The group renovated and reopened a previously degraded hotel, formerly known as Hotel Viana Sol, renaming it after António Parente’s mother, Dona Aninhas. Thanks to its central location, AP Dona Aninhas offers guests easy walking access to the city’s tourist attractions, heritage sites, scenic spots, and cultural landmarks, as well as parks and green spaces.
ARQ Tailor’s studio was responsible for the transformation of this historic building. The hotel features modern decor and incorporates the elegant and traditional ambience of the old Hotel Viana Sol.

The hotel is equipped with all the modern amenities of contemporary hospitality, including a gym, spa with pool, sauna, Turkish bath, and beauty treatments.
ARQ Tailor’s also ensured that the hotel’s inviting atmosphere is enhanced by an outdoor terrace, where guests can enjoy live music, exhibitions, and cultural events that enrich the social and cultural life of the city, making the hotel a vibrant hub for both visitors and locals.
