EDITOR’S NOTE
An ending also marks a new beginning—with 2020 fast approaching, we make time for both festive jubilation and retrospection through stories that celebrate design across the disciplines. Earlier this year, we spoke to some of the most brilliant minds in the industry during Milan Design Week, including Antonio Citterio (above) and
Philippe Starck (right); they reflect on their most cherished collaborations while sharing pearls of design wisdom (page 92). Backed by time-tested knowledge, Italian furniture companies Giorgetti, Frag and Kartell demonstrate their fitnesse with materials in their collections (page 50); learn more about the heritage of these brands and their future plans.
Nature, in all its ephemeral forms, continues to shape our creative imagination. Delight in mesmerising lighting collections influenced by natural phenomena (page 44) and read more about how the boundless beauty of the sea shaped the unique interior design of yachting projects by Norm Architects, Patricia Urquiola and Studio Liaigre (page 64).
Elsewhere in the magazine, we feature a vibrant selection of homes from around the world. These include a house in the woods of Poland inspired by the exuberance of summer (page 106), as well as the beautiful homes crafted by local firms such as Topic Studio (page 132), Sumisura (page 140) and Design Intervention (page 158). We also reveal the jury members for the upcoming Tatler Design Awards 2020 (page 176); the winners will be announced in our February issue. Happy reading!
