William Brand exudes a jovial presence, although you wouldn’t know it from looking at his designs. Under his Brand Van Egmond label – available at Zodiac Lighting in Hong Kong – the Dutch lighting designer has created a body of work that is cerebral and sculptural, mirroring the complex forms of nature. An architect by training, William’s design approach is context-dependent, his products forming both a natural extension of the space as much as they give it new meaning. “I design for buildings, and not for making an object. I design for the total,” he explains to Home Journal. Indeed, while William heads an internationally successful lighting brand, he is still most often found on the studio floor of the Brand Van Egmond headquarters in Naarden, the Netherlands – soldering…

EMBOLDENED & EARTHY Bolder palettes with a touch of earth are coming to the fore as we gradually loosen our embrace of the all-white, minimalist aesthetic. For their colours of the year, brands have unveiled different hues with a common denominator: a move into bolder territory that harks back to nature. Pantone’s Living Coral is a spritely coral, Dulux’s Spiced Honey and Sherwin-Williams’ Caven Clay revolve around sandy amber and warm terracotta, PPG’s Night Watch and Mojito Shimmer are a deep and velvety emerald and frosty green, while Behr’s Blueprint is a slate blue. The most neutral of the bunch is Benjamin Moore’s Metropolitan, a light grey still a touch beyond white. “We are seeing more variations of grey, hues with a neutral grey tone,” says Joakim Cimmerback, managing director…

Tastemakers familiar with Bean Buro’s interpretation of spatial design won’t be surprised to see a wealth of textures, sleek silhouettes and doses of refreshing modernity in sophisticated surrounds curated by the architecture and interiors practice. Tailored for a Swiss-Hong Kong couple with a baby on the way, this tranquil haven in a quiet Mid-Levels neighbourhood is no exception. “Living in fast-paced cities like Hong Kong, it’s important for us to have a home where we can leave all the hustle and bustle far behind – a sanctuary to clear our minds and spend quality time with friends and family with minimal distractions,” expresses the husband. “We came across Bean Buro while researching interior design firms, and we knew right away that their architectural style very much corresponds with our taste…

For our first issue of the year, we assemble key news in design and culture, and inspirational homes in Hong Kong, Berlin, and Manila that will get you excited to see new possibilities in your spaces. In our Report section, we cover the trends that are poised to impact the way spaces are being designed, and subsequently, influence the manner in which we live, not only in 2019 but in the years to come. One of the significant directions that we spotlight this month is adaptive reuse, a practice that has received plenty of attention in Hong Kong. Despite the thrill of modernity, this conscious effort to conserve, repurpose, and ultimately decrease our ecological footprint is a practical recourse that also happens to bring forth opportunities for a community to…

It’s been a bit of a whirlwind with all the holiday celebrations, but the festive season will pass and with the new year comes another opportunity to hit restart – and the same goes for the home. Lend a softer edge to your interiors with smooth whites, washed blues, pale greys and dusty blush for a sedate environment. There’s no need to get rid of current favourites in favour of gentler accents, however. Start small by offsetting the stark lines of modern pieces by mixing in curved details and lighter shades – and craft a home tailored to your needs for a fresh new start. AGE OF BEIGE FURNISH WITH ZEN-INSPIRED DESIGNS FOR A PEACEFUL HAVEN CALM AND COLLECTED NATURAL COLOURS IN SOFT TONES HELP CREATE A SENSE OF RELAXATION…

“THERE WAS AMAZING LIGHT AS SOON AS I ENTERED THE ROOM AND I WAS VERY MUCH ATTRACTED TO THE CLASSIC TURN-OF-THE-CENTURY SHAPE OF THE APARTMENT” In Berlin’s Schöneberg district, a residential area of leafy streets lined with trendy cafes, grocery stores and a weekend market, Tatjana Sprick found her sanctuary. Born and raised in Düsseldorf, Sprick, who formerly worked for Adidas, Costume National and Yohji Yamamoto, has had a long career in fashion and design, with previous posts relocating her to far-flung places from Mexico, New York and Munich to Paris, Morocco and Rome. “Each time, it was diving into a brand new culture and learning about a new way of living – I’ve been dragging most of my furniture around the world,” says Sprick, with a laugh. When she…

Stepping into Tracie Anglo Dizon’s home, it’s pretty hard to believe that an interior designer didn’t work their magic here. “I’ve been decorating on my own, so it’s taking a while,” says Tracie. Having cut her teeth in the creative industry as an art director for a fashion magazine as well as for numerous tomes, and now as an artist, Tracie’s aptitude for styling spaces is most apparent in the home she shares with her family. In 2016, Tracie and her husband Victor, a former investment banker and the co-founder of the upscale boutique travel company A2A Safaris, decided it was time to return to Manila after spending over half of their lives overseas – they had been residing in Singapore for seven years, and prior to that Tracie had…
