Reviving traditional crafts and reimagining existing furniture, the pieces, such as the Mod Chaise, above, are also influenced by the duo’s roving lifestyles – Abraham has counted the US, Britain, Denmark, the Seychelles and Switzerland among her addresses; Currie spent many years in Africa. In fact, the name ULLOO 42 is partially based on a word from an African dialect for “home”. ulloo42.com 18 NetJets
SHIFTING TIME The co-founder and CEO of the Timeshifter app, Mickey Beyer-Clausen, speaks to Farhad Heydari about vanquishing jet lag and the science behind it YOUR APP CLAIMS THAT JET LAG IS HISTORY – IS IT? Timeshifter is not a magic bullet, but if you follow the advice in the app, it can shift your circadian clock three to five times faster than normal, eliminating most – if not all – jet lag symptoms. The reviews on the App Store and Google Play, as well as questionnaires filled out by more than 25,000 users, have been great. They‘ve all used Timeshifter when they travelled and reported massive positive change. HOW DID THE TIMESHIFTER APP COME ABOUT? Dr Steven Lockley is a world-renowned sleep and circadian neuroscientist and Harvard Professor, who has studied circadian management and jet lag for more than two decades. For more than ten years, he has helped NASA apply circadian neuroscience to address jet lag and peak performance. For the past five years, he has also helped Formula 1 drivers and other elite athletes and top CEOs. In 2018, Lockley and I launched the Timeshifter jet lag app together so that every traveller could get access to the same jet lag plans offered to NASA and Formula 1, but at a fragment of the cost. With Timeshifter, everyone can be jet lag-free. WHO IS MOST LIKELY TO BENEFIT FROM THE APP? Every traveller crossing three or more time zones would benefit from using Timeshifter. We are definitely focusing on the business traveller, as jet lag really becomes an issue of productivity, safety and health for frequent flyers. BEYOND THE APP, DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER TIPS FOR BEATING JET LAG? No. Generic advice is never a solution for jet lag, and might even be counterproductive. A personalised jet lag plan, based on a traveller’s sleep pattern, chronotype and itinerary, telling you when to see light and when to avoid light is the only way to tackle the underlying cause of jet lag, since light is the most important time cue for resetting your circadian clock. Seeing light or sleeping at the wrong time can shift your rhythms in the wrong direction, and make your jet lag worse. YOU’RE A SERIAL ENTREPRENEUR – WHAT’S NEXT IN THE PIPELINE? The platform we‘ve built for circadian shifting can be reapplied to solve many other problems in many industries. There is simply so much potential for creating new innovations that can improve our performance and health, which is what excites me.
