If you’re planning to visit Stockholm soon you simply must head out to Skeppsholmen and Moderna Museet to check out its latest exhibition “Sculpture after Sculpture”, which brings together the work of Katharina Fritsch, Jeff Koons, and Charles Ray.…
Not even the lack of snow here in Stockholm could stop me from slowly, but surely, drifting into that special pre-holiday state that comes to me every year a few days before Christmas. As always, I packed my bags and headed out to the house where I grew up to spend a few relaxing days with family.…
Although Stockholm is our beloved home, we have to say that Copenhagen comes real close to being our favourite Scandinavian city. We like to think of the Danish capital as the bridge between Scandinavia and continental Europe.…
We’re excited to introduce two new models that so perfectly complement our growing family of watches, whilst continuing to preserve our brands now much loved characteristics.
The Heritage 40 Tuxedo sports a range of stylish details, including a stainless steel case, ceramic black dial with hand-applied markers, and glossy black alligator strap.…
This lovely story originates in a 1950s experiment to create a speedboat with a BMW 507 engine and design. The BMW 507, a very rare roadster and a legend in itself, is one of our favourites cars – so it was no surprise that its aquarian brother turned out so well.…
There’s a famous Swedish saying that goes something like “a beloved child has many names”. And when it comes to the Hirata Pork Bun, one of our favourite dishes right now, it’s truer than ever. We, as massive hamburger fans, like to call it the Asian burger.…
I often find myself torn between old and new. On the one hand, few things turn me on as much as reading about old things with a remarkable history. And at the very same time, I cannot describe how much I enjoy ripping the plastic off the latest Apple iPhone.…
In the Rolling Stones documentary film, Stones In Exile, Mick Jagger and Charlie Watts visit numerous locations central to the making of their 1972 album Exile On Main St. They visit Stargroves, the former home of Mick Jagger, where several sessions were recorded.…
If the Golden State represents some of the most deeply held views of the American Dream – with its pioneers, wild frontiers, outsized nature and freedom to fly one’s flag – then this coast, which spans from Santa Barbara in the south to Santa Cruz in the north, is California refined to its most stunning signifiers: towering mountains, vast oceans, and unfettered vistas belonging to every man.…
A dozen years and over $100 million later, the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris is propelling the city’s architecture into the twenty-first century. The Frank Gehry-designed centre, a passion project for LVMH luxury titan Bernard Arnault, opens on October 27.…
Today we’re introducing our brand new model, the Heritage 40. Having worked tirelessly over the past few months to get every little detail just right, we’re excited to present a range of fresh details, whilst ensuring that we retain our brand’s now classic characteristics.…
In just a few days we head down to the Cote D’Azur for two glorious weeks of holiday. As you know by now, it’s our favourite place on earth, and one that we visit summer after summer. One of the most special spots is jetset Cap d’Antibes, which gained its popularity and status as wealthy people from around Europe discovered its natural beauty, building luxurious homes here.…
Although I only walked past it during my last visit, news that Tokyo’s iconic 1960s Hotel Okura is to be rebuilt is still saddening – and has been met with an outrage from the community. While a big chunk of Tokyo’s charm lies in its ever-changing skyline, revamps like this one threatens its architectural history and identity.…
One of our favourite artists right now is twenty-eight year old Daniel Arsham. Daniel was born in Cleveland, grew up in Miami, and went to school in New York (where he also ended up finally). Daniel has been renowned for his unique art style for quite some time, and has left quite an impression on Miami co-founding two prolific artist-run spaces, The House and Placemaker.…
There’s something extra amazing about special watches owned and worn by special people. The excellent folks over at Hodinkee have put together a short list of cool watches owned by cool people – known to exist – but still missing!…
When you mention The Standard, most people think of the chic 18-story glass tower that arches over the now famous High Line in the Meatpacking District. But even though they offer a wonderful rooftop bar as well as amazing views through large floor-to-ceiling windows (which guests regularly squeeze up against, ahem) it’s actually not our favourite Standard hotel.…
Today we’re delighted to present four new variants of the Mistral 40 in two completely new shades, stainless steel and yellow gold. They’re both absolutely stunning!
The classic yellow gold version comes in two different looks.…
The sun is out for the first time in a very long time and I can see hope in the eyes of people on the streets – is spring already here? As a Swede, I’ve learnt not to hope too much for such things. However, with the string of light and warmth arriving, I’m feeling an itch to travel again – and the urge for London is feeling particularly prickly.…
James Goldstein has always been a bit of a mystery to me. I kept hearing about him from time to time, largely due to his extravagant style (hats made out of python or ostrich and that kind of thing) but also for his famous Los Angeles house – which is frequently used for filming, advertising and photo-shoots.…
Who doesn’t love taking a day or two off for a swell long weekend break? We sure do, and it’s something we hope to do more of in the New Year. But rather than going abroad for a weekend, we’re staying right at home. Honestly, chances are you live in a really cool city, but amid work and other bores, never get the chance to enjoy all that it has to offer.…
