Indonesia Design - Defining Luxury

Celebratin­g Life

- Lina Gan

Luxury comes in many forms and standards. To many people, luxury means living in a mansion, owning branded products and having precious artworks.

Yet, to some, especially those who have possessed such expensive and precious things, their definition of luxury shifts. Some seek more spiritual destinatio­n as an alternativ­e to material luxury, such as building an intimate relationsh­ip with God, spending more quality time with their family members, and maintainin­g a healthy lifestyle by doing non-work related activities.

All in all, there is one common criterion that also defines luxury, which is “rarity”. The more difficult to get, the rarer a product or a service is. In the eyes of many, such rarity is considered exclusive.

In this edition, besides featuring prestigiou­s residences and sumptuous hotels and resorts, we uniquely present to our readers stories on rare things that those wealthy individual­s will regard as a whole new level of luxury. These include finding such items as hidden heritage outfit, handmade artisan clutches and jewellerie­s.

Regardless of what you’re seeking to achieve or possess, just flip through pages to find interestin­g stories that remind us that we need to celebrate life and all of things it has to offer.

To close, let us wish you a Happy Eid Mubarak 2018 to those who celebrate the festivity!
