bali: four seasons in ubud
by far one of my most memorable vacations i’ve had, this particular four seasons in ubud is a must for any hotel buff. the room was so incredible i wanted to stay there forever. the antique statues placed on the carved shelves with in the walls, 2 story room with a guest bath, living room, and a balcony on top plus the bedroom with soft 1200 thread sheets, master bath, private balcony and a small plunge pool made it a dream apt. if only i could move that experience to NYC. the service was as expected, not only for four seasons but even for bali, where you get great service regardless, was still considered above usual and rather immaculate. perhaps above or at least equal to the amankila. highly recommended! by dd

to follow up on our lagerfeld comment series, here is another example of where to shove the double C’s in. after the surf boards, the snow boards… here is the guitar! we hope at least that it’s of decent craftsmanship. don’t even want to know the price. i feel a bit guilty to like it though… by pp’
Salone Internazionale del Mobile AKA Milan Furniture Fair
bookshelves by philippe bestneiderr… for those who do not like books at all. actually no, the white books don’t come with the shelves but the white stopper for the books do. the name ITAIPU comes from the south american dam “ttaipu”, famous for its rigorous architecture. however, i personally can’t make the connection. by dd
