LUXURY EQUALS TIME
Flying privately nowadays means more than moving around efficiently.
It is a transfer from the crowded hustle and bustle of everyday life
to a new vastness. The world suddenly becomes a bit smaller, the
things which fill it adopt a new order. What remains is the tranquil
feeling of actually taking possession of space and time. Being able to
arrange a rhythm that suits you personally. Becoming the sovereign
owner of your time.
This freedom has highly varied forms. One of the most beautiful is
when your glance is lifted above the mundane, when it rises and
floats over landscapes, coastlines, horizons. That is the moment
when schedules loose their significance, a serenely floating lightness
takes over.
In “Best of Streifzug” we accompany you on precisely this journey – as
a gentle souffleur whispering new impulses in your ear, handing you
a curated collection of impressions, feelings, ideas. In this edition we
focus your sights on Europe: on its filigreed nuances, its cultivated
diversity, its outstanding ability to draw together polarities to form an
ensemble.
It is the sensuous aspects which persist, endure... the shifting light
out over the sea during twilight hours, the bracing vividness of high
altitudes in the Alps, a gentle foray along coasts whose outlines print
themselves indelibly on your memory, warm breezes redolent with
scents of summertime and salt, the startling white blotches of sails
in the autumnal sun. Special places that touch you, move you – and
moments that endure for a lifetime.
Freedom is disclosed in its most beautiful forms here, on journeys
taken consciously, awarely, when you arrive without haste or hurry,
imbibe an experience with all five senses. In places so exclusive they
seem like a sanctuary, architecture so poised and decisive in declaring
itself that its statement wakes you up, design that does not need
to define itself, because it touches you. And people who generate
living spaces with passion and precision, rooms where you instantly
feel at home; who develop products which enrich your days.
Europe reveals itself to be a continent bursting with soft-spoken miracles,
inexhaustible and close by. Between Mediterranean warmth
and Alpine style, between the electrifying pulse of a city in the evening
and the expanses of the sea in the light of dawn, a field of forces
is generated which excites us and slows us down.
Perhaps the really authentic luxury of travel lies in precisely that:
in those tiny spaces inbetween. In freedom to be able to take – to
make – time, to enjoy the path taken as the most essential part of
the journey.
We wish you a pleasant flight. And many inspiring moments.
With cordial wishes,
Walter & Etha Taferner

he design follows a clear-cut logic. “The builders
had a clear concept in mind. Every decision they
made is graspable – both in terms of function and
of artistic vision. The result appears to be self-evident,
yet nothing was coincidental,” explains Philipp
Hoflehner, CEO at Bernd Gruber. Dark-brushed
oak meets bright Travertine, metal on leather,
primed, smoothed walls over textile surfaces.
The materials form conscious contrasts yet
are cooly harmonized with one another. Transitions are
worked out meticulously, disruptions not permitted. Lighting
and surfaces respond to each other and generate a
tranquil continuity. “Together we worked out and merged
concrete visions and their specific construction challenges
into one common line. The building feels utterly
structured, without being strict in any way,” so Philipp
Hoflehner.
Over an expanse of six floors, a consistent line-up of materials
reigns. Wood, stone, textiles, metal form the basic
principle of the entire house. An organically generated
staircase interconnects the floors. Indirect lighting accompanies
you from the lowermost to the rooftop floor,
providing both orientation and cohesion.

WOOD, STONE AND
LEATHER REPEAT
THE PRINCIPLE
OF MATERIAL
SELECTION BELOW
GROUND LEVEL.
Well-being area with bar
and lounge for relaxing
and feeling good
PRECISION IN DETAIL
On the ground floor are four bedrooms, each with
a similar foundational structure. A variety of natural
stones, shaded levels of colour tones and precise
details lend each room its very own identity. One
room combines a sequence of sedimentary rock
strata with restrained pink hues; another sets strong-
er contrasts. The differentiation unfolds through
materials and nuances, rather than formal separations.
On the upper floor, a generously expansive
room opens wide for guests. The terrace boasting
views of the Hahnenkamm expands the room still
further to the outside. Old wood on the walls and
ceilings suggests chalet character, interpreted in
reduced, contemporary fashion. A wrap-around
banquette, flexible tables and a bar made of stone
and metal all structure the room in clear-cut lines.
The furniture reinforces and amplifies the welcoming
concept without becoming dominant.
OPEN STRUCTURE,
CLEAR-CUT CONCEPT
On the second floor, kitchen, dining area and living
zone form a cohesive residential unit. An elongated
kitchen counter of broken and polished travertine
defines the central focus of the room. It ends in a
massive block of stone which can be utilized as an
informal perch to have a seat in. Two pull-out tables
make variable usage possible, yet still remain in
well-defined positions, accentuated by a lighting fixture
of poured glass floating above it all. “The house
is utilized intensively – with friends, with family, in
everyday life. The rooms are flexible, yet never lose
their clear-cut order,” as Philipp Hoflehner explains.
The living area is grouped around an open fireplace
forged of hammered metal and piled stone. Two
sofas are placed back-to-back, interconnected by a
simple and unadorned console. In such a way, two
clearly defined practical living zones are created
within one wide-open floor plan.
CONSEQUENTIAL TO THE ROOF
On the rooftop floor, interflowing transitions continue
their path. Wall surfaces are spanned with
textiles, leading from bedroom to bathroom, where
they convert to travertine. From the bathtub, a view
of the Wilder Kaiser opens to view.
Wood, stone and leather repeat the principle of material
selection below ground level. On those lower
floors, fitness, well-being area and wine storage
are accommodated. And here as well, atmosphere
is generated by lines, rounded forms and precise
lighting. Daylight is drawn in via vertical light shafts,
thereby creating a connection with upper realms.
The townhouse is based on a concept which is
thought through in utter clarity to its final point. Materiality,
light, room structure flow into each other,
generate a consistent whole. The result is a piece
of architecture which places function, quality and
sustainable value at centre-stage.

The estate cannot be seen from the street, up close it opens
to the eye a spacious forecourt, carport, garage and a grand
presence. The building concept combines alpine chalet and
future-oriented elements merged into a brilliant overall composition.
Grooved pillars and structural components, implementing only the
ultimate in premium materials plus an iconic glass elevator together
generate an incomparable living ambience.
UNPARALLELED COMBINATION
The rooftop floor comprises a living/dining and kitchen area flooded
with natural light, outfitted with the world’s most modern technology
and a wide open free-standing marble fireplace. The large terrace
proffers panorama views, functions as an extended living room outdoors.
The upper floor houses the master zone with dressing room,
private office and elegant bathroom, as well as a guest room with
en-suite bathroom. On the ground floor there is another guest room.
The large well-being area with sauna, steambath and relaxation zone
assures relaxation and experiences at their best. A high-end wine cellar
and multimedia room make possible further unforgettable enjoyments
and experiences with family and friends. A heated outdoor pool with
dream-come-true views of the mountains is a still further enhancement.
SUNSHINE, SERENITY, DISCRETION
“The Heritage” is to be provided fully furnished, styled down to the most
minute details. A premium sound system by Bang&Olufsen, large-sized
balconies/terraces and exquisite combinations of nature, technology,
and design make this estate to a high-style sanctuary, a luxury retreat.
Kochau is also deserving of mention: a jewel of a landscape located
between Aurach and Kitzbühel, an illustrious and highly desired residential
district. It brings together sunshine, serenity and discretion while
still enjoying nearby access to the centre of Kitzbühel and its numerous
events and culinary hotspots. A unique combination making “The Heritage”
a piece of real estate which can fulfil the highest of expectations.

From the moment of arrival, there is a shift. The pace softens,
the outside world fades, and every detail begins to feel intentional. At
The Ritz-Carlton, Vienna, it is the Ladies and Gentlemen who define
the experience. With instinctive understanding and genuine care, they
anticipate needs before they are spoken, creating a level of service
that feels both effortless and deeply personal.
ENJOY WITH ALL FIVE SENSES
Vienna is experienced through the senses. The scent of slow-cooked
tomato sauce at Pastamara – Bar con Cucina, the steady rhythm of
knives being sharpened at Dstrikt Steakhouse, the measured sound
of a cocktail shaker at the D-bar, the soft cheers of champagne glasses
at the Atmosphere Rooftop Bar. A brief glance upward may reveal
a heritage-protected artwork on the ceiling, a quiet reminder that at
The Ritz-Carlton, Vienna, every detail carries a story, you never quite
know what you might discover.
A DEFINING HIGHLIGHT

the privacy of the suite, a Steinway & Sons Spirio piano brings performances
to life with remarkable accuracy. Every keystroke, every movement
is captured and recreated exactly as it was played. The keys
move on their own, almost imperceptibly, filling the room with the
presence of legendary artists. It is an intimate moment that reflects
Vienna’s deep connection to music, felt rather than observed. At
The Ritz-Carlton, Vienna, every stay is shaped by the people who bring
it to life, creating experiences that are not only remembered, but felt
long after departure.

The mastermind behind this project is Johannes Kattus, who, with a
clear vision and uncompromising standards of quality, spent several years creating
a refuge that consciously distinguishes itself from classic club clichés. Am
Hof 8 is not a place for display – it is a place for retreat, exchange, focus, and leisure.
Discretion, atmosphere, and intellectual depth take centre stage. The idea:
to create a place that offers modern urbanites spaces to meet, work, train, relax,
celebrate – all under one roof, behind discreet walls in the middle of the city.
Pictures: © Vigo Jansons
A HOUSE WITH HISTORY – AND CHARACTER
The building itself is a rarity: a small residential house from the early
16 th century – labyrinthine, charming, with patina and character.
Instead of grand gestures of representation, the club impresses with its
intimate spatial structure and sensitive zoning. Every room has its own
identity; nothing is oversized, everything feels tailor-made. The interior
design was led by Theresa Obermoser, known for her refined sensitivity
to materials, light, and contemporary aesthetics in historic contexts.
She succeeded in translating the spirit of the house into every detail:
restraint instead of opulence, atmosphere instead of staging. The result
is a club that does not impose itself, but rather creates space – for
reflections, conversations, and enjoyment.
SPACES THAT COME ALIVE
Today, Am Hof 8 spans several floors and offers a finely composed ensemble
of spaces designed to meet the diverse needs of its members:
– Two stylish restaurants that combine cuisine with atmosphere
– Three individual bars, covering everything from morning espresso to
signature cocktails at night
– A nightclub that provides a deliberate contrast – energetic, intimate,
acoustically refined
– A fitness room for discreet physical activity
– Several meeting rooms, equipped for focused work and confidential
conversations
– Two boutique hotel rooms – perfect for guests or a short retreat
– Lounges for reading, working, or simply unwinding
– And a rooftop terrace offering spectacular views over Vienna’s
rooftops
All of this is accessible only to members – and for good reason.
ACCESS WITH INTENTION
Demand for membership has grown steadily since the opening. A
waiting list became necessary, as the club deliberately limits its
number of members. Admission is by invitation or recommendation
only, with a clear goal: to build a community connected by shared
values – not by titles or status symbols.
A PROGRAM WITH DEPTH
A central element of the club life is its multifaceted program of
events: from intimate concerts and readings to discussion formats,
tastings, salon conversations, private cinema evenings, and DJ sets
in the club. Everything is curated, everyone on equal footing, never
arbitrary. It is not about events – it is about experiences of substance
and quality.
ABOUT AM HOF 8
Am Hof 8 is a rare example of lived restraint in an age of
loud surfaces. The club deliberately forgoes grand gestures
– and gains depth and relevance precisely because of it.
Those who become members are not seeking status, but
substance. What they find instead is a place that brings
together traditional Viennese residential architecture with
a new way of living: calm, refined, discreet – yet full of
energy and inspiration.

READING THE LANDSCAPE
The Middle East has, for two decades, commanded the attention of
the world‘s most ambitious travellers. Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha. Cities
that built themselves into global destinations almost by force of
will, offering luxury, business infrastructure, and connectivity difficult
to match anywhere else. That picture has not disappeared. But it has
become more complicated.
Regional tensions and evolving airspace arrangements have introduced
friction into what was once seamless. For those on business,
where schedules are tight and disruption costly, it raises a fundamental
question: is this the right moment to look elsewhere? Many have
quietly begun to answer yes. Experienced travellers do not wait for
certainty. They move ahead of it.
THE CONTINENT THAT NEEDS NO REINVENTION
Europe has always been there. What changes is how clearly people
see it. Stable, diverse, and extraordinarily well-connected, it offers a
density of world-class destinations unmatched anywhere on earth,
within distances that private aviation makes effortless. A morning in
one country, dinner in another. Business in the north, recovery in the
south. The Mediterranean is experiencing a quiet renaissance among
travellers who have recalibrated their priorities. Not because it has
changed, but because its reliability feels newly valuable.
THREE DESTINATIONS, ONE COAST
Monaco does not try to be anything other than what it is. A city-state
built on precision, of ambition, of taste, of timing. Arrive on your own
schedule and the Principality opens differently: the harbour at dusk, a
table that was waiting, a meeting that runs exactly as long as it should.
Picture: © GlobeAir AG
The Balearic Islands offer something more layered than their reputation
suggests. Mallorca has matured into one of Europe‘s most satisfying
destinations, dramatic landscapes, a food culture with real depth,
a pace that restores without demanding anything in return. Ibiza operates
on its own frequency: luminous by day, alive by night, surrounded
by water that remains genuinely clear.

The festival is famous. The rest, the Cap, the hills

GlobeAir has spent over 17 years building a private

guaranteed hours, complete cost transparency, no
repositioning fees, no blackout dates. The aircraft is

It is the difference between arranging travel and simply

IIt all began with the craving for light. When British author Thomas
Smollett reported about this Mediterranean coast of France in the
18 th century, he placed the cornerstone for a fascination that endures
until this day. Soon thereafter, European aristocrats followed in his
footsteps; then came the artists, such as Picasso and Matisse; and
finally, the international society, who transformed this coast into a byword
for elegance. Luxury hotels soon replaced the modest homes,
boulevards were created, and amidst it all, a glamourous stage for
creativity and excesses of every kind. Nevertheless, the Côte d’Azur
kept its natural soul intact: fragrant pines, red-orange cliffs and the
endless blue of the sea.
BETWEEN GLAMOUR AND HISTORY
The first note was struck in Monaco – a duchy which stands for prestige
like no other place on earth. This is where Formula 1 drivers thunder
and streak through the narrow city streets, where in summertime
international stars present themselves at the Monte-Carlo Summer
Festival. In autumn, Port Hercule becomes a showcase for super
yachts. And it has its own culinary pinnacle: the legendary three-star
restaurant of Alain Ducasse, an oasis of fine dining which turns haute
cuisine to an art form.

Only a few kilometres distant, Èze peers from its eagle’s nest in the
cliffs above, overlooking the vast sea. This medieval village awakens
the enthusiasm of every visitor with its winding walkways leading to
the top and spectacular views. Whoever ascends to town along Nietzsche
Path adds not only nature, but also the history of philosophy to
this. Way up above, the Chèvre d’Or restaurant serves its cuisine amid
views which are downright surreal.

town of Antibes and the

Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat is just the opposite: the quiet, elegant sister
nestled on the Riviera. The peninsula’s coastal road winds along the
turquoise waters between hidden coves and opulent gardens. Legendary
Paloma Beach numbers among the most stylish beaches of the
region, while Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat embodies timeless elegance
and grandeur.
In Nice, life does not unfold, it pulsates. The Promenade des Anglais
invites the world to a seaside stroll while the Cours Saleya intermingles
Mediterranean colours and scents. The Nice Jazz Festival draws
musical legends to town year after year, while unique spots spectacularly
lodged on the cliffs above, like Le Plongeoir, compound the
enjoyment with dramatic views.
In the back-country hills, Saint-Paul-de-Vence seduces visitors with
art. The whole town is a pedestrian zone; galleries unfold one after
another. In a nearby enchanting park, Fondation Maeght presents
works by the great modern artists of our time. Auberge La Colombe
d’Or is a legend in itself; its walls covered with the works artists relinquished
to pay their bills.
THE SHORES, THE ART, A FEEL FOR LIFE
Antibes interfuses maritime glamour and creative energy. At Port Vauban,
some of the largest yachts in Europe lie at anchor, while events
such as “Les Voiles d’Antibes” excel in both tradition and luxury. On
the rocky waterside path tracing the shoreline of Cap d’Antibes called
Sentier du Littoral, you can savour one of the most beautiful coasts
in Europe.
Cannes, of course, is the venue where great cinema is celebrated.
During the Film Festival the town magically turns into an international
peephole to the stars. Croisette boulevard glitters with luxury boutiques
and hotels, such as the legendary Hôtel Martinez, while the
coastal islands Îles de Lérins, just a quick ferry ride from the mainland,
provide a rapturous world of utter serenity all to themselves.
Further to the west, famous Saint-Tropez unveils special charms: a
sanctuary for artists, today a synonym for the jet set and lust for high
living. In the marina, yachts are parked shoulder to shoulder, on Pampe-

lone beach life vibrates with pleasure. Events such as “Les Voiles de
Saint-Tropez” (more information on page 124) spotlight sports and
styles equally. The climax takes place at relaxed La Croix-Valmer,
where nature and discreet luxury hold hands in perfect balance.
The Côte d’Azur is not a place that you just visit. Inescapably, it is also
a feeling, a hypnotic interplay of light, landscape and life lived to the
fullest. Whoever was here once understands why the world for centuries
has dreamed of being here.

PROPERTY MARKET ON THE CÔTE D’AZUR
Behind the lustrous facade, another dimension of Côte d’Azur unfolds: its role as one of the
most highly desirable, sought-after property markets on earth. Between belle-époque villas
and modern retreats, the demand continues uninterrupted and intense, for supply is of course
quite limited. In desirable locations, luxury properties nowadays cost about 16,500 euros per
square metre, while top addresses can reach 40,000 euros. Strict regulations guide what may
be built where on the coast and the shortage of building lots focuses attention per force on
premium properties which are restored with excellence. Nothing ensures abiding value and
stability like these properties. The ever-growing tourism promises that value will grow, forecasts
of appreciation of worth approaching 15 percent over the next few years.

of five rooms provides the amenities of a comfortable
suite with separate bathrooms and walk-in
closets. A kitchen which is equipped in sophisticated
ways rounds out the exclusive ambience. The
heated outdoor pool is accessible exclusively to

Villa Les Pins dazzles through its panorama views
of the sea and direct access to the beach. It is
also spacious enough to accommodate up to ten
guests, a total of 438 square metres invite them

to Villa Les Oliviers, all five rooms have their own
bathrooms and walk-in closets. A perfect balance
between recovery and fitness is made possible

BETTER-AGING PROGRAMME
The Better-Aging Programme at LILY OF THE VALLEY
comprises a ream of tailor-made treatments and activities
which are designed to retard the natural process of
aging and at the same time to improve the living quality
of each subject. The luxury hotel offers detailed, meticulously
worked out nutritional and fitness programmes
and specializes in combining weight loss with sensuous
pleasures and physical ease. Against the backdrop of the
Better-Aging Programme, a bio-electric impedance analysis
is carried out, plus an additional analysis of general
mobility and muscle strength is conducted through the
advances made in Kinvent technology, making it possible
for the wellness coach to construct a highly personalized
programme of exercises which are aimed at increasing
comfortable use of joints and improvement of mobility.
Further beauty treatments alongside the outstanding
wellness-oriented cuisine round out the palette of gems
on offer. The Better-Aging Programme can be booked for
four, seven, ten or fourteen days.
NEW:
FACIAL TREATMENTS
WITH DERMO COSMETICS
The exclusive three-day facial treatments known as
”Supercleanse,” ”Glow & Go,” and ”Ultimate Hyaluronic”
with Dermo Cosmetics were developed in collaboration
with the renowned French skin-care brand Biologique
Recherche. All the treatments concentrate on the specific
needs of the skin, they aim to achieve visible and at the
same time sustainable results within the course of only
a few days. In addition, there is also the possibility of
booking individual sessions and treatments.

beyond that, a villa manager assures that everything goes smoothly
and organizes any and all extra-curricular projects. Guests of both
villas can also book private coaches, ranging from a yoga session
with views of the sea to intensive training with a variety of fitness machines,
all the way to an adventurous sporting excursion into nature.
ALL-ENCOMPASSING WELL-BEING,
ALL YEAR ROUND
It goes without saying, guests at the villas can also, at will, utilize
the entire spa zone in the 2000 m 2 large Shape Club and numerous
offerings of the luxury resort, which lies only a few minutes’ drive
away. Lily of the Valley is specialized in themes revolving around
sport, wellness, longevity and weight-loss. A variety of programmes
such as Detox, Better Aging and Weight Loss by Dr. Jacques Fricker
as well as special skin care treatments help you to reach your own
goals with ease. In addition, guests are warmly welcomed to Pépé
Beach Club on the long private beach known as La Plage de Gigaro
– a finest-grain sandy beach which extends for no less than three
miles and boasts excellent restaurants.
Crucial to the identity of the residence is that it is open all year
round. Springtime, summer, autumn and winter each have their own
inimitable character on the Côte d’Azur – ideal prerequisites for your
own endeavours in training, regeneration and consciously individual
time-outs. Guests find optimum conditions in every season of the
year for exercise, recuperation, mental focus.
The intensive cleansing programme known as ”Supercleanse”
is particularly suited for skin types which tend
toward acne and superfluous sebum. It focuses on
achieving skin equilibrium and sustainably maintaining
that state. The ”Glow & Go” programme was developed
especially for wan, dehydrated skin. This revitalization
programme restores deep-down hydration, re-establishes
the skin’s natural radiance. The ”Ultimate Hyaluronic” programme
is perfectly suited for mature skin which smooths
out deep wrinkles and generally tautens the skin through
the application of hyaluronan.

DIRECTLY FROM THE BUILDER,
WITHOUT BROKER COMMISSION
Nine exclusive condominium apartments in three
elegant villas with legally protected lake views, direct
lakeside access, private beach and your own
boat dock add up to a home radiating southern
character and the serenity of the water. The villas fit
seamlessly into the surrounding landscape of the
south shore of Lake Wörthersee, lie ensconced between
lake, golf club and gently sloping hills. Each
residence is constructed in a way that sun exposure,
views and privacy are balanced in perfect equilibrium.
The architecture is inspired by the classical
lines of the Hamptons in Long Island, New York
– interpreted anew in modern language through
forms: expansive proportions, natural materials, reticent
colour worlds.
Regardless whether a garden apartment, multiplefloored
residence or penthouse, each unit is a private
refuge. Meticulously harmonizing the view of
the shimmering turquoise waters of Lake Wörthersee
with the outdoor pool, it entices all as a sanctuary

Lakes have always exercised an enormous fascination
on the human spirit. The long list of artists and
composers who have been inspired by lakes extending
from the Salzburg province Lake District to
the lakes of Carinthia, and also includes Lake Constance
and Lake Neusiedler, seems endless. Back
in those days, just like today, people seem to find
undiscovered energy in the most important elixir of
life – water. For it empowers us with its rich palette
of feelings and dynamics. In early morning, it awakens
mystically, often rising in wafts of mist over the
watery surface. During daytime hours it blossoms,
demanding a lust for life from all of us. In the evening,
it entices us to philosophize in serene tranquillity.
A PLACE OF JOY AND INNER PEACE
And thus, it gradually becomes clear-as-glass why
lakeside real estate numbers among the most
desirable of all properties. The dream-come-true
locations go hand-in-hand with a high degree of
living quality – nearness to the water, to surrounding
nature, has proven salubrious effects on our
own well-being. “Blue Mind” – such is the moniker
of this beneficial meditative state of being which is
inimitably connected with a nearness to water and
brings forth feelings of happiness and inner peace
– is the result. Whoever possesses real estate at
waterside is highly unlikely to ever part with it. Many
properties have been, and continue to remain, in
the hands of a family. “The demand for a domicile
at lakeside continues to increase. The readiness to
sell such a piece of property, however, diminishes
further,” confirms Alexander Tischler, CEO of ATV
Real Estate.
A DIALOGUE BETWEEN
ARCHITECTURE AND NATURE
Nevertheless, there is also a good piece of news.
In spite of all the aforesaid, there are still properties
and new building projects which can be acquired at
lakesides in Austria and Bavaria. Architects exercise
their highest artistic talents and filigree signatures
for what is new and what is natural at lakeside. They
implement designs in deep resonant harmony with
nature – as if landscape and house have been a single
unit since time immemorial. Huge glass fronts

MULTI-FACETED LIFESTYLE
The regions in which the most desirable real estate
are located are just as wide-ranging as the
characters of the owners. On sophisticated Lake
Wörthersee in Carinthia, for example, locals and
guests immerse together into a lively scene of lifestyle
and ongoing events, whereas all those seeking
tranquillity find their pot of gold on Lake Millstatt.
Festival culture can be experienced further west,
on Lake Constance, and in the east on Lake Neusiedler,
though both regions define themselves in
utterly different ways: climatically, historically, culturally
and ecologically. Whoever has a hankering
for Habsburg nostalgia and values historical treasures
feels particularly at home in the Lake District of Salzburg
province. Whereas lovers of the Alps are drawn
to Lake Achensee, the so-called “Sea of Tirol.”
URBAN LIFESTYLE
WITH LAKESIDE ACCESS
What is also interesting is that the trend towards living
at lakeside is equally pursued by urban dwellers.
They, too, would like to extend their own lives on
the water yet not limit them merely to rural regions,
instead bring them into their daily existences. For
that reason, water spots on the old Danube in Vienna,
in Kaisermühlen and in lakeside Aspern are high in
demand. In Klagenfurt there are highly sought-after
living spots where the city and the water meet:
along the Lend Canal, in the green villa spaces of
St. Martin or in lively Waidmannsdorf, only a few min-
utes distant from the shores of Lake Wörthersee. It
is no different in Bregenz. The direct shoreline area
all around the port, the lakeside stage and the promenade
number among the most exclusive residential
spots of the city on Lake Constance.
LIVING WITH THE
RHYTHMS OF THE WATER
Living at waterside is more than just an address.
Views over the watery expanse open far-reaching
horizons, bestow inner serenity, inspire high-flown
dreams. Perhaps it is precisely this interplay of nature,
light, and far horizons which has enticed people
to the shores of lakes and rivers for hundreds
of years. Whoever lives here, finds not only a home
but also a place where living quality, creativity and
self-composure come together in particularly
charming ways.

panels. In the cockpit, a redesigned helm console featuring
two Garmin displays ensures intuitive control, complemented
by a wet bar with sink, refrigerator, and ample storage.
The familiar joystick docking system with Skyhook digital anchor

boarding. The Wajer 38 S blends high performance with refined
ergonomics and meticulous craftsmanship – a showcase of
Dutch engineering in the sportiest expression of the brand.

RATHER THAN CREATING A CLOSED, UNIFORM CONCEPT, MEZZA—
MAISO HAS DESIGNED AN INTERIOR THAT IS MULTI-LAYERED AND
HARMONIOUS. IT IS A CONSCIOUSLY ECLECTIC COLLAGE OF ART,
COLOUR, MATERIALS AND FORMS, CURATED RATHER THAN COM-
POSED, AND THEREFORE OPEN TO INTERPRETATION ON EVERY LEVEL.
WITH SPACES
LAYERED LIKE
COLLECTIONS –
MATERIAL BY
MATERIAL, OBJECT
BY OBJECT –
MAISON—D'ÉTÉ
INVITES YOU TO
ARRIVE, LINGER
AND KEEP ADDING
TO THE STORY.
The foundations are a bright, serene world of natural materials:
stone, wood, ceramics and linen. These elements inspire trust and
confidence, yet never seek the spotlight. They remain deliberately
neutral, however. Rather than being the actors, they form the stage
for everything that follows. This house reveals a tale of collecting and
design as a curated art that strives not for order, but excitement.
OBJECT BY OBJECT. ROOM BY ROOM.
Almost every piece of furniture was designed specifically for this
house in close collaboration with artisans. These are unique objects,
not mass-produced items – things with weight, presence and history,
or at least the potential to acquire these qualities over time. They
are complemented by historical finds, such as a restored solid wood
table, a newly upholstered wingback chair and layered textiles that
blend patina with the present day. Even the fireplace is more than just
a functional element; it becomes a quiet centre that brings the entire
room together and grounds it.
AND BETWEEN IT ALL: ART.
NOT AS COMPLETION,
BUT AS POINT OF DEPARTURE.
Intense constellations of colour in the paintings, sculptural objects
and uniquely expressive pieces set the tone. The rooms respond with
deep greens, warm reds and patterned textiles and carpets that seem
to resonate like contained rainbows. Colour is not merely applied
here; it is carefully layered and interwoven with its surroundings. The
interior becomes a walkable choreography – a spatial translation of a
collection that can always grow and evolve.

natural stone, oak and a restored
solid wood table connect seamlessly
with the open communal
space that extends towards the
shoreline.

Terrace lounge opening onto the lakeside
garden, where custom-designed
outdoor furniture, soft textiles and
crafted details extend the house‘s calm,
curated atmosphere into the landscape.
At the heart of the house lies the living area: spacious,
open and adaptable. It is a room that does
not just expand; it orchestrates. Here, velvet meets
wood, colour meets texture and art meets everyday
life. A green tiled stove provides a clear focal
point, setting the tone visually and atmospherically.
Around it, different zones emerge for conversation,
retreat, play and shared living. Here, the feeling of
’being at home‘ comes together: warmth, presence
and identity.
The kitchen is based on the same idea. It is not
just a functional space, but an integral part of the
design. It is a place for coming together, defined
by materials, depth, and visual connections to the
water. Natural stone, oak, and textiles blend with
restored furniture to create a generous spatial experience
that feels effortless. Floor-to-ceiling windows
open up the view of the landscape and water,
visually extending the interior beyond its walls.
The quieter rooms, such as the bathrooms and
spaces of retreat, are understated yet full of character.
They are reduced, but never random. Light
wood and ceramic surfaces in white and beige
create subtle contrasts with black fittings. Once
again, it is the materials that take centre stage, clarifying
the design and tying these rooms back into
the overall scheme.
The winding staircase in black steel and wood
leaves its mark on the house as a whole, acting as
a sculptural element. It serves as both a connective
spine and a graphic counterpoint within this world
of softened, luxurious materials. Outside, the house
opens up with terraces, stone paths and textile
lounges. The interior and exterior blend seamlessly
into one another, and the surrounding landscape
responds with its own quiet intensity.
The result is an interior with a clear message,
shaped by contrast, colour and meticulous craftsmanship.
The house is a living collection that has
matured over time and is still ready to grow.

HALL IN TIROL
CITYLOFT
WHERE DESIGN MEETS CHARACTER
Pictures: © ImmoTyrol-Ponholzer e.U.
80 STREIFZUG BEST OF
In the middle of the historical old town of Hall in Tirol this highly unusual
city loft is located in a former ski factory – a rare but stunning
hybrid with both industrial character and modern residential charm.
The building was remade for residential purposes, the loft itself farreachingly
redone in 2021, and then with immense finesse for design
and architecture, interpreted anew.
As soon as you step into the apartment, you are struck by an impressive
feeling of roominess, the light, clear lines and spaciousness of
the overall living concept. The heart of the apartment is the wideopen
living/dining zone which through its expanse and premium
materials, dazzles with its cohesive interior concept.
The residence is to be handed over fully furnished. The entire furnishings,
textiles and outfitting are already integrated – simply arrive,
move in, feel good. It is a concept especially attractive to purchasers
with a flexible international lifestyle.
A further highlight is the separate entertainment room with integrated
sound system and billiard table, a room for cosy get-togethers
in special moments with friends and family. From here you directly
enter the spacious, roofed-over loggia, offering through its lounge,
barbecue and ambience-fire a protected outdoor zone with views of
the surrounding mountain panorama.
Consciously preserving its modest restraint on the exterior, this loft
unfolds its great living qualities once you are inside, distinguishing
itself clearly from classical residential concepts.

he festivities embrace, among other things, the huge Anniversary
Party at village centre, the festive Corso on the Kurpromenade
as well as the gala dinner in the Kurhaus of Merano. The centre-
piece of the ”Rallye of Sympathy“ nevertheless remains the roadsters
and speedsters which have been polished to ultimate degree of lustre
for the cruise through the Dolomites, into the Trentino and, of course,
back to the centre of Schenna to roll down the catwalk, put themselves
in the spotlight, on show for their owners.
MOUNTAINS, PALM TREES, CHROME
AND ENJOYMENT
This unparalleled combination brings decades of success in the
“Südtirol Classic Schenna” to a pinnacle point. Because quite apart
from the stopwatch on the alpine-mediterranean drive through imposing
Dolomite summits, luscious green vineyards and the brilliant
sunshine of glistening lakes, it is the fun and joy which are in the
foreground. The degree of fun the participants feel in participating is
visible, at latest, at the retro-defilée on the “catwalk” of the sophisticated
Kurpromenade of Merano on 10 th July 2026. They take their bow
on the big stage, both pilots and passengers will present themselves
in true stylishness of the year of construction of their particular auto-
mobile on the Auto-Corso, accompanied by music, dance and a
whiff of nostalgia.
And for whomever the path is the goal, the next day, the intervals and
breaks of the meticulously selected culinary stopovers along the way
are all a part of the overall whole. Also on the occasion of the anniversary
of the legendary rallye 2026, whoever might invite the participants
exclusively to enter the portals to a Welcome Evening at the
festively illuminated and decorated inner courtyard of the Schenna
Castle. And outside of that, to take part in an extended festive table of
South Tyrolean specialties beneath the arcades of the wine village on
Neumarkt Square. There promises to be unlimited “Glitter & Glamour”
– after all, all participants will be celebrating this Classic Saturday for
the last time at the Merano Kurhaus. In addition to the multi-course
dinner, there will be live music, show acts and, of course, the celebratory
awards ceremony.
REGULATIONS
At the 40 th “Südtirol Classic Schenna” from 05 th until 12 th July 2026,
120 teams will gather at the start. The assignment to a respective
class extends from I (up to/including year of construction 1945) to III
(up to 1985). Since in the competition, a feel for timing counts above
all else, heavy limousines have just as great a chance of winning as
fast roadsters, since certain distances must be covered in the time
which is specifically given.

HEINRICH SCHNEIDER REVEALS A BIT OF HIMSELF
Someone once said I was a Druid. Somehow, it is true. It is of endless fascination to me how with a
little bit of patience and careful attentiveness, the final touches to a meal of beef comes from buds,
grasses, roots, mushrooms, herbs, spores, blossoms, stems, stalks, leaves, fruits and whatever else
you can find in the forest and meadows. Don’t get me wrong, I love ultra-modern technology,
but I love in equal measure antique, traditional methods, the way things were done for centuries
on the farms. Where I feel best of all is inside my own laboratory, usually called a kitchen, that is
my kingdom. Often with nothing but a copper pan and a wooden spoon. That’s the real me. It is
why you will never see me on a TV cooking show or giving a lecture, telling people amusing stories
about something or other. The things I do land on the dinner table. Through my dedication, curiosity,
pleasure, passion. Not a single plate leaves my ”cooking workshop“ before my critical eye gives the goahead.
Only then do I allow it to leave my sight, placed sensitively into the hands of my sister Gisela and her team.
B ecause when you cross the threshold into Terra, it is as if you
were arriving at your friends’ home. Terra means heartfelt hugs, joyous
moments together, siblings who are much more than star-awarded
chef and sommelière, instead they are impassioned hosts for truly
treasured guests all day every day.
It all began back in 1975 when Gisela and Heinrich Schneider’s parents
built a hotel and restaurant “in the middle of nowhere” about 55 km
from Sterzing and 27 km from Bolzano, far removed from the touristic
hotspots. Life in the mountains back then was challenging in a variety of
ways. But apart from all the difficulties, brother and sister learned to love
the fascinations of this very special spot from their parents: the incomparable
wonders of nature, the deep serenity, the liberating freedom.

success, we remain humble, deeply
rooted in our fundamental culinary
principles. Terra is our personal
timeless story of passion, devotion
and striving towards culinary perfection,”
the chef elucidates, an expert
in wild herbs and mushrooms. The
cooking “Druid magician” uses his
kitchen as a workshop, and his ideas
awakened enormous enthusiasm in
the Michelin experts for his ongoing
experiments. He himself enjoys
nothing more than the joyous anticipation
of his guests who often travel
long distances to savour his creations.
“When I see the happy sparkle
in their eyes, that’s when I know that
I have the most beautiful profession
on earth.”
WINE
IS INFINITELY
FASCINATING
BECAUSE IT NEVER
STOPS TELLING
TALES – ABOUT
PEOPLE, NATURE,
ABOUT WAY-BACK-
WHEN AND NOW.
GISELA SCHNEIDER
In 2010, Gisela’s partner Karl, who adores good food and wines in
equal measure, became an integral part of Terra. Thereby, the team
was complete.
Brother and sister Heinrich and Gisela Schneider, forever full of energy, inseparable
WHAT MAKES TERRA SO DIFFERENT?
What distinguishes Terra from all the others today? It is not the prizes
and distinctions, “but rather, the unbelievable experiences that we
make possible – full of awe and respect for nature in our magical spot,”
explains Gisela Schneider. She is sommelière who also boasts a WSET
diploma, AIS Professionista, and is the pulsating heart and soul of Terra,
receiving her guests in four languages, always with a smile on her face,
underscored by a passionate love of wine.
Heinrich’s fundamental inspiration is the forest, ever since childhood. He
brings the essences of nature, as well as its healing powers, into each and
every dish he prepares. “In spite of the Michelin stars and many years of
SMALL … AND SUPERB
That is the motto for the eight rooms and three suites, it is equally
applicable to the well-being area. It was crucial to the siblings in times
when everything in the world seems to get bigger and bigger, to create
a serene sanctuary even in the well-being area – where you can feel
good just to be alive – with two saunas, a whirlpool with views of the
Dolomites, a spacious quiet room and, on request, massages based
on the most unusual mountain herbs.
... AND SUSTAINABLE
Thanks to indelible childhood experiences and memories, the siblings
early on imbibed the high responsibility they have towards nature, it
is a profound inner conviction. “Doing things which are sustainable,
harmonious with nature, is self-evident for us, this philosophy is an integral
part of what we do. It is reflected in every area of our existence:
energy-efficient building, photo voltaic system, heating with pellets,
careful handling of foods, cooperation with local farmers, shopping
here in the valley. Along with an appreciative and fair association with
our employees, it just goes without saying.
Pictures: © TERRA - The Magic Place
GISELA SCHNEIDER REVEALS A BIT OF HERSELF
Where Heinrich loses himself entirely in the kitchen, I let loose – literally – in the world of wines.
The Sommelier examinations were more than 20 years ago, but just two years ago I was distinguished
by the prestigious WSET diploma in London. Since then I have frequently been invited
to a wide variety of wine-tastings. I can exchange views with the top vintners of South Tyrol,
take part in testing the age and quality of wines still fermenting in the vats, go strolling through
the vineyards, visit winemaking estates. In the interim I have also tried my hand at planting
grapevines myself. Five vines are my pride and joy. They have already attained 17.6 degrees of
sugar, things are beginning to get exciting. As exciting as finding the wine to fit a certain dish of my
brother. Twice a year, he changes his menu. That’s when my own experimenting begins. The superb
meals of my brother need the perfect wine accompaniment to bring out all the best in them. I taste, sniff,
slosh, think, read, until I have found the perfect wine, vintage year, temperature and suitable glass for the food. The fact that
my selection of wine is permitted to complete and round out the magnificent dishes of my brother is a huge privilege.

INDIVIDUAL DREAMS OF A HOME
„We plan and realise together with our clients and
with architects highly individual and natural living
spaces. Each house is a unique project which
must generate both space and freedom in order to
come to full expression,” explains Managing Director
Martin Oberhofer. This profound understanding is
reflected in the different finishing stages – from the
structural works, shell and core to the turnkey solution.
When desired, the living spaces are furnished
with sophisticated products and materials which
Rubner has on display in its boutique. The company
works closely together with premium brand
partners.
ALL-ENCOMPASSING CUSTOMER CARE
Rubner Haus provides all-encompassing customer
care and services relating to the projected construction,
from planning and production to punctual
installation and customer service following the
handover of the house. A complete chain accompanying
the client at every step of the way makes
Rubner the ideal partner for all those who want to
have their house built from a single source with
maximum individuality and exclusivity. Each phase
of numerable complex processes is thus coordinated
and personally accompanied.
ABOUT RUBNER HAUS
Rubner Haus was founded in 1964 as a company
of Rubner Group and looks back on more than
60 years of experience as specialist for individual
wooden houses. With more than 30,000 projects
already realised and 200 employees, Rubner Haus
numbers among the leading enterprises in this
business sector.
Rubner Haus completes custom-made living
spaces which are as unique as the people who
live in them. Also windows and doors come from
the Rubner Group, a world-spanning enterprise in
the sectors of timber industry, timber engineering,
timber house construction, doors and windows,
with about 1500 employees.
At Rubner Welt in Kiens in South Tyrol, visitors can
experience over an expanse of 30.000 m 2 the production
and workmanship quality of Rubner homes
close up. Rubner Welt numbers among the largest
exhibition spaces of its kind in Europe. It is the ideal
place to examine in detail what goes into your new
home and enjoy individual consultation.

OF SUSTAINED VALUE
Rubner Haus utilises only natural materials such
as wood, fibreboard and cork. The wood comes
from certified, responsibly cultivated forests and is
processed and finished in their own sawmills. This
enables an outstanding living climate and comfort as
well as optimum energy efficiency. Rubner homes
are of sustained value for the future – for health and
well-being, for the environment, for property value
retention. And in the premium segment, this responsibility
proves especially rewarding and is reflected in
a stable market value appreciation.

JEWELLERY
WAS NEVER GENERATED
AS A STATUS SYMBOL,
BUT AS A PERSONAL
EXPRESSION OF ONE'S
WELL-OUTLINED
PERSONALITY AND
INDIVIDUAL STYLE. THIS
STANCE EMBODIES THE
BRAND STILL TODAY.
FFOR PERSONALITY AND STYLE
Right from the launch, SÉVIGNÉ became emblematic
of the courage to stand alone. Materials were
not utilized for decoration, rather, they were deliberately
and fastidiously selected. Proportions
were not coincidental, they were composed, defined.
Jewellery was never generated as a status
symbol, but as a personal expression of one’s
well-outlined personality and individual style. This
stance embodies the brand still today.
As generations changed over to the new one, this
identity was continued consequentially. Under the
direction of Jonas Fink, SÉVIGNÉ remains loyal to
its chosen line and at the same time opens itself
wide to more individual processes. Continuity now
means not standstill but honing its known edges
still further. The signature is crystal-clear, the work
is personal, the pieces brook no compromise.
HANDMADE IN GERMANY
The pulsating heartbeat of SÉVIGNÉ is the open
atelier at the flagship store on Brienner Straße in
the centre of Munich. About ten goldsmiths and
experts specialized in setting precious stones
work here in close collaboration with each other
on pieces which take a lot of time and deserve a
lot of time. Each piece is created right here, in an
exercise of long years of professional experience,
precision and uncompromising commitment to
quality. “Handmade in Germany” is no label here,
it is a dedication.

CUSTOM-MADE JEWELLERY
Apart from their own collections, a particular focus
is trained on their custom-made pieces. Engagement
rings, wedding rings are first imagined, then
generated through personal talks with the company
owner. During these private appointments with
Jonas Fink, materials, forms and proportions of the
rings evolve in mutual harmony. SÉVIGNÉ sees this
process as an eye-to-eye dialogue: on equal footing
with clients who know what they want.
PRECIOUS STONES
OF UNUSUAL QUALITY
The portfolio is rounded out by its trade in highly
unusual precious stones and gems for investment
purposes. Thanks to longstanding expertise and
international contacts which have intensified over
the years, SÉVIGNÉ can offer access to stones
and gems of extraordinary quality and exceptional
origins – discreetly, confidentially, based on wellfounded
knowledge.
SÉVIGNÉ has two locations in the inner city of
Munich, amplifying its presence in and beyond
the city as an established brand, emblematic of
highly valuable, unconventional jewellery. Made
for people with style, clients who don’t need to
explain their individuality, persons who show their
personality with poise.
APART FROM THEIR OWN
COLLECTIONS, A PARTICULAR
FOCUS IS TRAINED ON THEIR
CUSTOM-MADE PIECES.

or the team at Egetemeier, traveling to Milan is
not an end in itself. It is part of a deeper commitment.
“Traveling for our clients” means immersing
theirselves in the international design discourse,
observing, filtering and translating what truly matters
into meaningful concepts. It is about understanding
shifts before they become visible, and
bringing back not trends, but perspectives that align
with the way Egetemeier creates spaces.
WHAT STANDS OUT
This year, two movements stand out with particular
intensity. On the one hand, a renewed sense of
elegance rooted in materiality and memory. Spaces
feel grounded, almost contemplative. Dark woods,
refined stone surfaces and soft reflections create an
atmosphere that is both timeless and precise. This
development echoes a quiet evolution of classic
interiors, where existing elements are not replaced
but reinterpreted with care and intention.
TRAVELING FOR OUR CLIENTS
MEANS OBSERVING CAREFULLY,
SELECTING THOUGHTFULLY AND
CREATING SPACES THAT REFLECT
TRUE CHARACTER.

On the other hand, there is a growing courage to
challenge expectations. Forms become more expressive,
proportions more experimental. Objects
introduce subtle tension, not through excess, but
through deliberate deviation. It is a controlled play
with perception that brings a new lightness into
otherwise composed environments.
THE FUSION OF DECADES
What becomes evident in Milan is the fusion of
decades. The confidence of the 1970s meets the
precision of the 1990s. Brutalist influences reappear,

not as rigid statements, but as sculptural clarity.
Geometry becomes a language. Volumes are
defined, edges are intentional, and materials are
celebrated in their purest form. Marble, metal and
wood are not combined randomly but orchestrated
to create depth and presence. These are precisely
the qualities Egetemeier continuously seek
and refine within their projects too.
At the same time, there is a strong focus on craftsmanship.
Excellence in execution is no longer a
detail; it is the foundation. Surfaces invite touch,
transitions are seamless, and the quality of processing
becomes part of the emotional experience. At
Egetemeier, this understanding of craftsmanship is
essential, as it transforms design into something
that can be experienced beyond the visual.
A SENSE OF TIME VALUE
What they also observe is a shift towards emotional
connection. Interiors are no longer just functional
compositions. They become spaces with character,
capable of creating resonance. There is a certain
magnetism, a quiet intensity that draws people in.
Design gains a sense of time value. It is created
to last, not only physically, but emotionally. This
aligns closely with how Egetemeier approaches
each project, with the intention to create spaces
that endure and connect.
Traveling for clients at Egetemeier means identifying
exactly these qualities. It means recognizing
what has substance, what carries forward and
what aligns with a deeper understanding of living.
It also means having the courage to select, to refine
and to translate inspiration into spaces that
reflect the personality of their clients.
Milan is mondaine, luxurious and full of high-gloss
moments. Yet beyond the surface, it reveals something
more essential. A mindset that encourages
boldness, precision and individuality. For Egetemeier,
it is a reminder that meaningful design requires
both sensitivity and conviction. This is what they
bring back to their clients. Not images, but insights.
Not impressions, but a curated perspective
that becomes part of every space Egetemeier
designs.

projects for clients, inspired by Milano

PROPERTY
A MAGNIFICENT ESTATE WITH AN ENCHANTING SOUTH-FACING
GARDEN: THIS PROPERTY OFFERED EXCLUSIVELY BY RIEDEL IS
ONE OF THE MOST STATELY AND MANORIAL OLD VILLAS IN THE
DISTRICT OF BOGENHAUSEN AND THE ENTIRE CITY OF MUNICH.
STREIFZUG BEST OF
115
This breathtaking property, built in 1907 in one of the
most noble top locations in Alt-Bogenhausen, dazzles
every observer through its incomparable baroquelike
architecture. Behind the stylish facade, stunning
and overwhelming rooms which generate a perfect
symbiosis of history and modern dreams unveil themselves.
During the course of several modernisations
– all carried out in harmony with the laws protecting
historically listed buildings, the most recent in 2022 –
historical elements got reworked with an enormous
sensitivity to style and a love of detail to outfit the
rooms with modern comforts.
MAKING THE ULTIMATE IMPRESSION
The heart of the villa wins acclaim from all serious
people for its consummate representative qualities,
extending over approximately 421 m². Added to that
are two additional units of approximately 147 m² and
approximately 83 m², which can be utilized ancillary
to the main residence or as separate apartments,
bursting with practical options. The ceilings – 6.8 metres
high in the hall and about 3.4 metres high in the
representational rooms – underscore the manorial
stateliness of this estate boasting a total of 14 and a
half rooms. Historic coffered doors, splendid wood
parquet flooring and highly valuable custom-made
built-in features including a luxurious combination
kitchen/dining zone from 2022 generate absolutely
unsurpassable living surroundings.
PRIVATE OASIS WITH PARK FLAIR
Nestled in a wide-reaching garden of approximately
700 m² which seems like a park, this villa presents
itself as a private oasis non-plus-ultra, a sanctuary
promising unmatched tranquility and privacy. Artful
fountains, a charming tea house, are far more than
ornaments: they substantiate and undergird the incomparable
luxury.

is a sweeping flair of high elegance. Centrally located
yet unspeakably quiet on a street containing only private residences,
this property which is on offer only from RIEDEL guarantees an outstanding

he designs remain loyal to their creative,
artistic appearance, and thereby attain a brandnew
kind of sensuousness: through refined new
surfaces, precisely-focused colours and an extra-
ordinary quality of materials. The latest models of the
collection can be experienced at Neue Werkstätten
as part of their constantly changing showcase.
BAUHAUS DESIGN CARRIED TO
THE NEXT STEP, CONSEQUENTIALLY
Ranging from the iconic free swingers S 32 and
S 64 over the Lounge Chair S 411 all the way to tables
S 1070 and B 97, Jil Sander shows in imposing
manner in her interpretation of the Thonet steelpipe
classics just how classic Bauhaus designs can
be developed further, consequentially true to original
principles. Reduction. Precision. And a particular
sensitivity for materiality. All these stamp the
design of the collection.
The two clearly differentiated design lines SERIOUS
and NORDIC each set their own accents: whereas
SERIOUS unveils a markedly elegant identity with
dark-hued surfaces in high-lacquered form and deep
leathery colours, NORDIC interprets the designs
through pale, gold-shimmering finishes, bright and
warm wooden shades exercising admirable restraint.
TIMELESS, PRECISE,
PREMIUM VALUE
Through the presentation of the JS . Thonet Signature
Collection, Thonet returns permanently to the
portfolio of Neue Werkstätten. It is a partnership
founded on the self-same values: timeless design,
precision hand-craftsmanship and premium materials.
Pursuant to the guiding light of a dialogue being
carried on between past and future, the three partners
combine and interlace tradition with curiosity
and lust for novelty – with the claim to make designs
not merely as style, but rather as an attitude,
a posture.
NEUE WERKSTÄTTEN
Neue Werkstätten have their roots in “Vereinigte
Werkstätten für Kunst im Handwerk“ (United Workshops
for Art in Craft), an association of architects,
artists, and craftspeople founded in 1898 that helped
pave the way for modern German design. In its current
transformation, Neue Werkstätten is reflecting
on its history, building on its founding principles,
and carrying them forward into the future in a contemporary
way. It positions itself as an institution of
design culture — a forum that brings together retail,
planning, and consulting within a comprehensive
service offering. Its portfolio addresses both private
clients and professional planners, ranging from furniture
by international premium brands and emerging
labels to textiles, lighting, curated accessories, and
art, as well as materials, paints, and tiles. With kitchen
solutions and extensive interior design expertise
from Molteni&C, alongside high-end bathroom concepts,
living spaces are now conceived and designed
holistically.

THONET –
THE ENTERPRISE
Since 1819 Thonet Möbel has
manufactured pieces for private
living and project zones.
As a result of a particular
passion for materials such
as bentwood and welded
steel tubing, the German
manufacturer produces
design icons such as the
famous Coffee House Chair
or Bauhaus Classics from the
quill of Mart Stam, Marcel
Breuer or Mies van der Rohe,
as well as furniture pieces
by renowned contemporary
designers.
The combination of highly
modern production technology
and traditional handcraftsmanship
is what turned
Thonet into one of the most
successful enterprises in the
world. In the production
works in Frankenberg, innovative
products are generated,
now as in olden days,
which are always focused
on long-enduring value.
They distinguish themselves
through the absolute highest
quality, functionality and a
timeless language of forms.
Sustainability is rooted deep
in the history of the company.
Even the super-slender
forms of the first bentwood
by Michael Thonet were not
remarkable merely from an
aesthetic point of view, but
rather as an expression of
deep-seated understanding
of resource efficiency.
Thonet furniture is built for
generations: it has an extremely
long-life cycle and
can be revitalized, on request,
in Frankenberg.

t all began with a bet. In 1981, Patrice de Colmont issued
a challenge to two boats, Pride and Ikra, to race from the Tour du
Portalet to Pampelonne and back – as a wager. The ”Nioulargue“
was born. What at the time was just a sportive competition between
two friends, transmogrified over the following decades
into the most important sailing spectacle in the Mediterranean
Sea. Since 1999 it bears its present name: Les Voiles de Saint-
Tropez, organised by the Société Nautique de Saint-Tropez, a
yachting club that has been at home in these waters since 1862.
What has placed its indelible stamp on this event until today is
its eclectic, multi-faceted character, making it far more than a
competitive event. Sport, technical precision, respect for maritime
traditions and a truly festive spirit that converges seamlessly
at the quay of the harbour in the evening. At Les Voiles de Saint-
Tropez, it is all part of one and the same celebration.

look like they have the future of sailboat racing already behind
them. On the water, they weave and glide like ballet dancers –
every move watched rapturously by the crowds from the quay
of the harbour and the citadel. And yet, this is more than a competition.
It is an homage to the art of sailing, to the handcraftsmanship
of the shipbuilders and the passion of all those who
love the sea. About 4000 crew members of all nationalities are
to be found on board (private persons also have the possibility
to become part of a crew). Impassioned amateurs sail adjacent
to professional regatta skippers. The owners are frequently at the
head of the crew on their boats, personally facing the challenges
which the sea presents, ranging from a summer breeze suddenly
whipping into an autumnal mistral or changing to the infamous
“flip-flop weather” where winds reach 50 knots velocity. That
is the soul of this event: you never know what will happen.

When the sun has set and the
boats are resting at harbour, the
night is still young and festive
activities await.
WHERE LIFE IS A CELEBRATION
Following the regatta, life on land awakens: boats
come to port, the evening gets underway. In the village
of the Voiles – open every day, freely accessible
to everyone, swinging with live music, vibrating with
exhibitions, the tang of saltwater and barbecued fish
in your nostrils – sailors meet visitors. Bar des Voiles
is the universal meeting place. On Wednesday,
competition for the big maxis takes a break, makes
a pause, but not the swinging, throbbing life in the
harbour: La Pétanque des Voiles, sponsored by
North Sail, invites one and all to the Place des Lices
where boules which have defined the soul of the
town for generations roll over the self-same ground.
On Tuesday evening the Sardinade of the SNSM, the
emergency rescue workers of those who need help
at sea, leads the way to the lighthouse for dinner
beneath an open sky that makes you think you are in
a different world. On Thursday the evening belongs
to the crews: costumed squadrons parade through
the harbour, accompanied by music, all manner of
masks, plus endless fun and laughter.

Whether exclusive dinner by starlight, art exhibitions
in historic villas or live music on the quay – the programme
is as wildly varied as the guests themselves.
There are few spots on earth where sports, culture
and love-of-life meld so perfectly as here. Because
the people are not merely onlookers, they are part
of a community. And because Saint-Tropez in autumn
has its own magical aura, far removed from
the hurly-burly of high season, yet bursting with real
life and inspiration.
And whoever strolls in early morning along the Quai
Jean-Jaurès, before the first crews awaken and set
sail from the docks will understand why this spot has
never lost its enchantment. Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez
is the promise to live, experience, feel precisely that.
Not once. But again and again.

ith the “Limerence”, Alia Yachts once
again makes a decisive statement
about visionary yacht construction.
This unique 53-metre-ship was generated
in collaboration with Azure Yacht
Design as the perfect symbiosis of the
“spirit of expedition” and a luxurious super-yacht,
equipped for any and every type of water sport imaginable,
alongside lifestyle experiences of the highest
order. “The yacht embodies the lust for adventure of
its owner and our own full-custom philosophy, which
means each and every detail has been newly developed,”
says Gökhan Çelik, President of Alia Yachts.
The power-exuding exterior with sculpted, blue-lacquered
super structure and dark-hued glassed surfaces
underscores its sportive-progressive character.
From the explorer bow, widely-spanned side decks
stretch to a generously proportioned quarterdeck
with its own helicopter pad which is certified for a
Bell 429 or Airbus H145 and includes a tanking system
on board.
LAUNCH STARTS
AT THE PARKING LOT
As long as there is no Aerotender on board, the
helicopter deck is transformed to a sports court for
basketball, volleyball or football... or to a driving
range and laser-clay shooting range. That’s how
“Limerence” during daytime hours transmogrifies
to a swimming sports and leisure resort which
leaves even much larger yachts miles behind.
Beneath the helicopter deck, an impressive collection
of high-performance toys lies hidden:
four tenders, including a Wajer 38S, a 12.50-metre-
long X-Tender and a Ski Nautique, jet-skis, foil
boards, seabobs, kitesurfing und windsurfingequipment,
e-bikes as well as two sailing catamarans.
In the evenings, “Limerence” reveals its second
personality: the quarterdeck is turned into a beach
club or open-air disco reverberating with sound,
vibes and atmosphere complete with professional

Driver or basketball? If the helicopter
isn’t parked on board, the pad
turns into a sports court.
Arrivals and departures on
“Limerence” are seamless. The
tenders are large and powerful.

light-sound fog technology. For more tranquil hours, the helicopter
deck transforms again: into an open-air cinema beneath the stars. A
shaded lounge zone above the bathing platform provides the ideal
spot to relax and recuperate in... or for a romantic sundowner with
views extending over the open seas.
LIKE A BOUTIQUE HOTEL
The interior, designed and outfitted by CT Mimarlik in collaboration
with Alia Interiors, is more reminiscent of a boutique hotel than an
explorer yacht. Bright colours, refined materials and a laid-back elegance
place their stamp on the atmosphere. Three spacious guest
cabins – including a sovereign suite the full breadth of the yacht itself
and with an additional children’s area – provide luxurious comfort
and flexible utilization.

On balmy evenings, the helipad is
transformed into an al fresco cinema –
an unforgettable experience at sea.
The sovereign suite spans the full width of the
yacht and includes a private “children’s area.”
The technical concept which stands behind the “Limerence” is emblematic
of near-universal versatility and efficiency. Ultra-modern
stabilizing systems, a truly sophisticated tanking system for jet fuel,
and highly precise launch mechanisms together ensure that all the
toys and tenders are usable in safety and enjoyment even in heavy
seas. In spite of enormously demanding functionality, the design
remains elegant and well balanced – a masterpiece of artistry and
engineering over a length of just 53 metres.
“There is simply nothing to compare with this,” Çelik, president of the
shipbuilding yard, sums up. “Limerence shows how much is possible
when you combine a spirit of expedition, superyacht comforts, and
sportive passion without brooking any compromise whatsoever.”
There is a dedicated lounge on the
lower deck for divers and anglers.

he fascination and futuristic allure are just as
magnetic today as they were at the start. The striking architecture
reflects the trailblazing spirit that turned a bold idea to culinary reality.
But it is far more than that. A spirit of irrepressible inventiveness
accompanying a passion for everything beautiful have also made
Red Bull Hangar-7 to what it is today: an all-encompassing work of art.
A RUNWAY FOR CULINARY GREATS
A crossroads where the spirit of culinary discovery meets the highest
standards of quality. But above all, the realisation of a vision. In 2003,
under the patronage of Chef of the Century Eckart Witzigmann, Red
Bull Hangar-7 and Restaurant Ikarus launched a culinary lodestar that
remains unrivalled to this day. The pioneering guest chef concept
brings a new star of the global fine dining scene to Salzburg each
month, shaping Restaurant Ikarus with distinctive culinary signatures –
from timeless French classics and minimalist Nordic Cuisine to experimental
molecular gastronomy. Guests embark on a culinary journey
around the globe – but without a suitcase, without a boarding pass,
without even needing to leave Salzburg.
BOOKAZINE – WHEN FINE
DINING MEETS STORYTELLING
With an unusual calling card: the new makeover of the
Bookazine ”IKARUS. Salzburg welcomes the world's
best chefs”, Executive Chef Martin Klein invites readers
to a highly exclusive journey through the culinary year
at Restaurant Ikarus.
Corresponding with the all-encompassing re-design
of Red Bull Hangar-7 and Restaurant Ikarus, also the
popular book series was thought out all over again:
now in a modern softcover format, with puristic layout
and incomparable food photography, the bookazine
focuses on the people, ideas, and products behind the
menus. Featuring culinary philosophies, signature dishes
and personal travel tips, each page opens the door to
other countries, ways of thinking and tastes.
Also new is the multimedia access: via QR codes you
are whisked deep into the Ikarus experience – with
40 recipes, videos that take you step-by-step through
them and exclusive glances behind the scenes through
monthly product portraits and recipes personally selected
by Martin Klein. This is the essence of astonishment—crafted
through creativity, discovered in detail,
and expressed in trying out new recipes at home.
A culinary yearbook for all those who love good food
and great dining ... and also want to understand what’s
behind it.

Restaurant Ikarus with the guest chef concept which is inseparable
from its identity has long held its place among the world’s gastronomic
elite: two Michelin stars, five Gault&Millau toques with 19 points,
100 Falstaff points and five spoons in the Schlemmer Atlas – and it
is also a proud member of the prestigious association Les Grandes
Tables du Monde. After a makeover, this culinary guiding light has
been shining in a fresh new look since June 2025 and continues to
provide an inspiring setting for one of the most ambitious projects in
international haute cuisine.
PREVIEW GUEST CHEFS 2026
In 2026, the culinary journey at Restaurant Ikarus is once again
whisking guests to some of the world’s most inspiring gastronomic
destinations.
As from May 2026 the first stop is the vibrant city of Amsterdam, where
two-Michelin-starred chef Jurgen van der Zalm showcases his refined
cuisine along the iconic canals. From there, the journey continues
to romantic Paris, where David Toutain delights guests with his elegant
and surprising-taste menus. Next stop: historic Athens, where George
Papazacharias presents contemporary Greek cuisine at its finest – deeply
rooted in tradition. In August 2026, during the Salzburg Festival season, the
spotlight remains at home: the Ikarus team, led by Executive Chef Martin
Klein, takes centre stage, presenting their own creative vision on the grand
culinary stage. As autumn arrives, the journey continues to neighbouring
Budapest with Tamás Széll – marking a true premiere, since for the first
time, a Hungarian guest chef brings his creations to Restaurant Ikarus.
Continuing with a highlight from faraway Hong Kong: Guillaume Galliot,
whose three-Michelin-starred cuisine promises an extraordinary taste experience
not to be missed.
As the culinary year at Restaurant Ikarus slowly approaches its finale, two-
Michelin-starred chef Benito Gómez brings the sun-drenched flavours of
Málaga to Salzburg once more.
