Editor’s Note
Recently I visited a friend’s native home which is a very charming old home filled to the brim with wonderful prim items. A home which is a mix of diverse, contemporary artwork with many memorabilia from travels to make it feel like a truly unique space. While we were driving back to grind, I thought of having a second home, which will be more of a weekend escape filled with beautiful views, copious amount of good food and lazy evening walks. Ah! The entire weekend will be a long, wonderful dream that I would never want to end.
With so many ideas spinning in my head, I have tried to dedicate the issue to beautiful homes and amazing destinations across the world. The private villa in Albania (Pg 112) is a perfect example of getting outside green and colours inside your abode. The house has been conceptualised to have minimum room separation so that the occupants will have more ‘we-time.’
If modern luxury mixed with a touch of retro art is what fascinates you the most, the team gives you an awesome leisure stay option in Chattanooga. A stay at The Dwell Hotel (Pg 124) is a kind of getaway you will not forget.
Last but not the least, there are houses with a very warm feel, even though not yours, you feel at home. I got the similar appeal while going through various homes in Cover Focus (Pg 60). From a relaxing space to verdant landscape and artfully done interiors; each home tells a story of its own.
