Arne Jacobsen Society Table by Carl Hansen & Son
In our fast-paced world, environments that encourage us to slow down, relax and be in the moment have become the new goals in luxury living. Complicated concepts and unnecessary embellishments (once the obvious definition of luxe) are also giving way to a growing desire for ‘luxury in simplicity’ – a longing for designs that are streamlined, highly functional, and thought out with care. Not to mention, harmonious dwellings that encourage meaningful connections with others, and with nature, are being embraced more and more.
Interior design by Peter Tay
With this being our Luxe issue, we couldn’t think of a better time to speak to award-winning interior designer Peter Tay. Known for his distinctive, ultra-luxe residential projects in Singapore and across the globe, Peter tells us why true luxury should be about timeless, well-considered spaces that are built around the inhabitant, and with sensitivity to context.
