Solo Houses is, perhaps, the first architecture collection in Europe. Yes, an architecture collection. But not to put it at home. No. To build houses. With the freedom of the one who creates works of art. Secondary residences, imagined by a series of some of the greatest international architecture studios in an exceptional natural context. In this way, the landscape itself becomes the white cube, as the slogan of the gallery says (but let's not go ahead). Twelve projects, each one more amazing and unreal, from the geometric forest of Sou Fujimoto, luck of new age 2.0 cabin, to the species of bunker-mirador of ultra discharge of Go Hasegawa (called Villa Fringe) passing through the triangular UFO of the design studio TNA
Desigual has taken a 180º turn (literally), and as you can see in the editorial “IN HOUSE” inside this 25th anniversary issue it has been for a good reason. Fresh looks with the irresistible DNA of a Spanish brand as Desigual are portrayed in front of Almilcar Lusinchi's camera
It is the latest project of the Madrid-architecture studio Lucas-Hernádez-Gil. This is the reform of a town house that dates back to the 18th century and is located in the south of Extremadura (Spain). A large-scale intervention to give it new use as a rural house. A work that rescues the lost character of the original architecture and in which new solutions are provided without mimicry or stridency

In this editorial is the queen who gives the checkmate. The new Chanel collection focuses on the two colors that most identify with the French maison. Black and white as the main colour palette of an editorial with the styling of Javier de Juanas and the photography of Javier López
The center of Madrid widens. Or it is the periphery that grows, as you look. Somewhat away from gentrification, there are bars that are born between these two waters, on the border of the past and the future of cities. With young people who drive exciting projects outside the massive radar. We select 5 bars that make life in the neighborhood more interesting. So are the new old bars of Madrid
