This issue we speak to titan of design, Kelly Hoppen, and the founders of London-based studio Daytrip, Iwan Halstead and Emily Potter, about signature styles, design processes and latest landmark projects. We look at workspaces tasked with working hard for their users – from a vegan, deaf-friendly office for a communications firm to a global HQ that, in its design, juggles multiple brand identities. On the hospitality front, there’s a Scandi-inspired hotel with wellness at its heart and, at the other end of the aesthetic spectrum, an opulent restaurant with a Japanese sensibility. Also, our usual stable of influential industry columnists chart sustainability paradoxes, technology, hybrid working and the future of the high street.
