To honour the world’s greatest artists, writers and thinkers, Montegrappa created the Genio Creativo series of pens. Each represents the achievements of an intellectual or artistic giant in a writing instrument that embodies the spirit of a specific work, as interpreted by Montegrappa’s artisans. Joining writer and philosopher Kahlil Gibran and the artist Vecellio Tiziano, known as Titian, is the sculptor ANTONIO CANOVA.

ANTONIO CANOVA (1 November 1757 – 13 October 1822) was an Italian sculptor famous for his work in marble. Often regarded as the greatest of the neoclassical artists, his work was inspired by the Baroque and the classical revival, but made more contemporary by dispensing with the melodrama of the former and adding a human element to the latter.

A limited edition of 260 fountain pens and 260 rollerball pens, the exact number of years since Canova’s birth will be offered with polished bronze trim, black resin and a pen barrel made in a special marble composite, depicting in miniature his famous sculpture The Graces, or “Le Grazie”. A further 12 fountain and 12 rollerball pens will be produced with solid 18k gold trim, representing the number of collaborators who worked with Canova.

Recalling the visual presence of Canova’s sculptures, the marble element is naturally grey. According to legend, Canova would pass over the freshly-chiselled, once-white stone with a cloth soaked with water, the same one used to wash the sculpting tools. The stone would absorb the dirt and acquire a more natural look.

Further details paying homage to Canova are the signature clip in the form of a pleated drape with which the artist used to clad his models, while the bronze or gold trim enriched with decorative motifs often crowning antique amphorae. The Genio Creativo Canova Fountain pen is piston-fed, and the nib is in 18k gold, engraved with the same symbol as the cap top, signifying the heraldic coat of arms of the family.

The Montegrappa Genio Creativo ANTONIO CANOVA limited edition has been developed in collaboration with Fondazione Canova ONLUS. www.museocanova.it

UNVEILS NEW SUITE CATEGORIES AND GUEST EXPERIENCES

SINGAPORE, 24 October 2017 – Raffles Singapore announces its up-coming reopening that is planned for the second half of 2018. Since February 2017, the iconic heritage hotel has embarked on a careful and sensitive phased restoration. Its reopening will see the introduction of exquisite new suite categories, vibrant lifestyle experiences and refreshed dining concepts.

New suite categories

For more than a century, Raffles Singapore has offered its well-travelled guests luxurious all-suite accommodations. The restoration will update its distinctive suites with new amenities and technology while maintaining the sense of space and colonial ambience.

When Raffles Singapore reopens, it will have three new suite categories: Residence Suites, Promenade Suites and Studio Suites. The total suite count increases from its existing 103 suites to 115 suites.

The new Residence Suites, comprising four 1-bedroom and one 2-bedroom suites, will be located in the Raffles Arcade and are named after famous local cinemas during the early to mid-1900s. This is in homage to the days when the neighbourhood was known as “The Place of Cinemas”. Suites names are Alhambra Suite, Diamond Suite, Marlborough Suite, Odeon Suite and Theatre Royal Suite.

Intimately nestled in the front-most corner of the Main Building are two new Promenade Suites that overlook Beach Road. A tribute to the late 1800s era when Raffles Singapore faced the beachfront, the suites will be named Lady Mountbatten Suite and Lady Sophia Suite, which were converted from existing boardrooms.

• Lady Mountbatten was the Countess of Burma and wife of Lord Louis Mountbatten who was the Earl of Burma, last Viceroy of India and also Southeast Asia’s Supreme Allied Commander during the Second World War. In September 1945, Lord Mountbatten was in Singapore to witness the surrender of the Japanese Forces.

• Lady Sophia was the wife of Sir Stamford Raffles, the founder of Modern Singapore, and for whom Raffles Hotel Singapore is named after.

The new Studio Suites that are being added aim to complement the array of suites in the Main Building, enveloped by the colonial charm of the Grand Lobby.

Raffles Singapore will continue to provide existing suite categories including:

• Presidential Suites
• Grand Hotel Suites
• Palm Court Suites
• Courtyard Suites
• State Room Suites, formerly known as Raffles Inc. State Room Suites. The renaming reflects the conversion of the workspace into a parlour as well as the spaciousness of the suite.

Raffles Arcade: A lifestyle destination for the community and Singapore

Once reopened, the Raffles Arcade will showcase social spaces and a variety of lifestyle experiences. This includes a refreshed Raffles Gift Shop that will house a History Gallery to illustrate the heritage of Raffles Singapore. The Arcade will also be home to a brand-new Raffles Spa, a holistic sanctuary for hotel residents and the community to escape the bustle of the city.

“The History Gallery exhibits the hotel’s heritage over the past 130 years, and highlights the role Raffles Singapore played as a landmark in the country, and also in the region,” explained Christian Westbeld, General Manager, Raffles Singapore. “We are confident the local community will enjoy the refreshed facilities within the arcade that would rejuvenate the experiences within our neighbourhood.”

Signature dining experiences at Raffles

Signature restaurants and bars since the 1900s, Long Bar, Tiffin Room and Writers Bar, will continue to be a distinct part of Raffles Singapore dining experiences when the hotel reopens.

Home of the Singapore Sling for over a hundred years, the Long Bar’s plantation-inspired décor will be refreshed, and the famous Long Bar counter restored. Visitors and guests will be welcomed to continue the tradition of throwing peanuts on the floor as they sip on a chilled glass of hand-shaken Singapore Sling.

A part of Raffles’ history since 1892, Tiffin Room will continue to serve up delectable North Indian cuisine. Offering authentic specialties served in Tiffin boxes, it will also present an interactive dining experience with tableside service by chefs, complete with freshly ground spices to enhance the occasion. The restored interior décor includes reinstating the wooden floorboards in Tiffin Room to bring back features from the early 1900s based on research by our heritage consultants.

Furthermore, the signature Afternoon Tea will now be served at the new lounge in the Grand Lobby, allowing guests to enjoy a quintessential Raffles dining experience amidst the soft daylight streaming in from the skylight.

Established as a tribute to famous writers that have come through the doors of Raffles Singapore over the years, Writers Bar will be expanded to a full bar and be the place for bespoke cocktails, discreet elegance and intimate conversations.

New event spaces for weddings and social gatherings

Jubilee Hall has been converted into a new 300-guest ballroom, named Jubilee Ballroom as a tribute to the Jubilee Theatre, originally a cinema in the 1930s at the same location. Elegant and sophisticated in hues of cream and gold, complimented with an air-conditioned pre-event foyer, the Jubilee Ballroom will be the ideal venue for weddings and social galas.

All other event spaces will be refreshed, including the East India Room, Casuarina Suite as well as outdoor venues Palm Garden, The Lawn and Gazebo. The previous ballroom has been renamed Palm Ballroom as a nod to the Travellers Palm, the emblem of Raffles. All event spaces will also have striking lighting elements and the latest audio-visual technology, to be relevant for today’s social galas and events.

The restoration of Raffles Singapore is supported by award-winning interior designer Alexandra Champalimaud, who has worked on numerous restoration projects around the world.

In reference to the new Jubilee Ballroom, Alexandra said, “We have included sophisticated Victorian details whispering to the heritage of the space along with nods to Singapore’s culture. In order to tell the legacy story of the theatre, we added finely curated motifs and techniques that speak to its history, along with iconic lighting elements to provide an added layer of luxury. Stunning chandeliers and signature gold Venetian light fixtures with elegant coffers, which light the room beautifully, can be found within the space along with custom upholstered wall panels that speak to Singapore’s culture.”

“We are pleased to share these updates, designed to keep Raffles Singapore relevant and distinctive to our guests while providing a new level of excitement with sublime experiences. At the same time, careful consideration has been taken to ensure we retain the ambience and what is unique to Raffles Singapore,” Christian added. “In the meantime, we are committed to deliver a level of service and comfort that is expected of us for areas of the hotel that remain open.”

Phase Three of the restoration will commence on 13 December 2017, when the hotel will be fully closed. Raffles Gift Shop will move to a temporary location along Seah Street and remain open throughout.

Chennai, October, 2017: Reaffirming the idea that internet is the new “underground” of fashion; Purushu Arie launched his signature gender neutral fashion label with a rich-media blogpost.  The 26-year-old fashion blogger-designer observes progress as an odyssey of individuality achieved by freedom of choice for self. Purushu’s clothing line celebrates individuality by proposing neutrality of race, age, appearance and every other cultural conditioning and differences.

Asserting his commitment to slow and sustainable fashion philosophy, Purushu’s unconventional fashion label will retail limited edition ungendered capsule collections in natural handloom textiles.

COLLECTION NOTE: BEYOND BINARY

Beyond Binary envisions birth of non-conforming pluralist energy in a collectivism setting. Absolute opposites of dualism synchronize a spectrum that isn’t binary anymore. Binary perspective of black and white is merely polar ends of a larger spectrum shaded in greys. Purushu Arie’s capsule collection is a confluence of binary opposites that alters absolutist thought dimensions. Curves and angular lines, pinstripes and ruffles, functionality and vanity, femininity and masculinity – all elements come together in plurality to shape the label’s post-Genderism aesthetics.

Unique Japanese cutting techniques are employed to create offbeat utility designs that redefine the “ethnic” image of handlooms in khadi, Madras checks and 100% natural cotton. Purushu Arie’s handlooms carry a universal message of neutrality and individuality, thereby strikes a relationship between the fabric and wearer much deeper than skin. Sari pleats and lungi drape recur as the central inspiration throughout. Gathers, ruffles and bell sleeves of vintage Indian sari-blouse lends inspiration to the crop tops which are ergonomically designed to fit both man’s and woman’s body.  The kara border of veshti is retained on front plackets and hem, weaving together elements of traditional Indian menswear and women’s attire to shape the new look of tomorrow.

WAISTBAND LUNGIS

Waistband lungis emerge as the breakthrough pieces in Purushu Arie’s latest gender neutral range. The arrival of lungis with waistband revolutionarily alters the functionality of the garment forever. Tie up waistband lungis featuring traditional border go hand in hand with quirkier draped styles in the collection.

Colour Palette: Green evokes the emotions of progress, harmony and fertility.  Natural tones of pickle green, artichoke green, pickle green and sage green rule the colour palette along with shades of royal blue, off white and Indian red. Subtle tones of cider orange, liberty blue and sage green are used in borders and stripes.

Price Range: INR4999 & above.

Bangalore, Oct 26, 2017: Marble has been the choice of flooring for decades, thanks to its rich looks. However, marble floorings came with their share of troubles – easy to stain, tough to maintain due to cracking and fading and very expensive. Industry leader Mirage Ceramics decided to combine the goodness of marble and tiles to bring to you the perfect flooring option – the Marble High Gloss Finish. And it’s got everything you need!

Marbles have lost their popularity in the recent past due to their high maintainance. Over time, marble is prone to chipping, staining, cracking and water penetration. For the high cost they come at, these were problems that turned people away and made them look for other options. Mirage Ceramics realised that rarely does something match the beauty of real marble, so they brought the best of both worlds together in their Marble High Gloss Finish tiles. These tiles are non-porous, eliminating the fears of water retention and stains, and do not fade even after prolonged use. Designs from real marble are scanned on to them, replicating their elegant finish. The tiles are easy to fit and very simple to maintain, thus resulting in zero maintenance cost. Simply use it like a regular flooring! Owing to their elegant look the marble high gloss finish tiles are perfect for flooring as well as cladding. Coming in the versatile size of 600mm*1200mm, they slip easily into homes and commercial spaces. The cherry on the cake, of course, if that now you can get the look of real marble by paying just a fraction of its cost!

Said Mr. Shrikant Khadilkar, Chairman at the launch of the Marble High Gloss Finish, “Original marble is not just extremely costly, but also tough to source. With so many cheap substitutes in the market, it’s tough for the common man to really know if they’re buying the real thing. Additionally, marble flooring is difficult to maintain in the Indian environment, where stains, cracks and water damage are impossible to eliminate. Our designers have worked very hard to achieve the perfect balance between marble and tile. We bring the goodness of the strongest, most durable tiles with the looks of original marble. We’ve scanned patterns from real marble onto these tiles so that even the sharpest eye cannot point out the difference. The tiles are sturdy, long lasting, non-porous and come with zero maintainance. We are sure they’ll be loved by all those who appreciate great looks and dependability that come at an affordable cost”

So, if you have been putting off your flooring decision for lack of the perfect option, your search ends here! Mirage Ceramics’ Marble High-Gloss Finish tiles are just what you needed to make your home and office spring to life with affordable elegance. Get it today and watch your space metamorphose into a chic new avatar!

Targeted at the discerning enthusiasts who consider themselves connoisseurs, we’re all set to amaze the market with a first-time-ever experience.”

mVoice G2’s timeless, preserved watch design provides smart access to virtual assistants, apps and more with a simple voice command

IRVINE, CA – October 30, 2017 – Martian Watches, creators of the world’s first smartwatch with voice, announces the mVoice G2, the first hybrid smartwatch to feature traditional watch hands with minute and hour markers over a full round power effective OLED display, complete with voice capabilities. Voice calling and commands offer instant convenience on the wrist with Siri, Alexa and the Google Assistant, giving consumers a smart choice when it comes to preserving and adapting classic watch design to the digital, connected lifestyle. The mVoice G2 is available for pre-order today on Kickstarter, with pledge levels starting at $99.

Design

Martian’s design and engineering teams have strong roots in both the traditional watch industry and IoT connected devices, creating mVoice G2 to appeal to watch and technology enthusiasts alike, striking a seamless balance of classic timepiece design elements and the most useful of smartwatch technology features.

“As a pioneer of smartwatch hybrids since 2012, we are truly proud to see the strong emergence and acceptance of hybrids as an option for consumers who don’t want to sacrifice the style and feel of a traditional watch but still want the benefits of a digitally connected lifestyle,” says Scott Szybala, Vice President of Marketing for Martian Watches. “The mVoice G2 offers engaging smart features designed with authentic hands with minute and hour markers, to retain the three-dimensional DNA of a watch dial. We didn’t want to create another digital dial that simply mimics a traditional watch, we wanted the real thing.”

Power & Convenience

Featuring a low battery-consumption smart display and a SII connected gearbox to provide traditional analog time while connected to a smart crown, mVoice G2 is powered by a single Lithium battery. Users can enjoy up to seven to ten days of smart features and two hours of talk time before needing a charge. The smart crown goes beyond the crown of a traditional watch; it’s rotation allows users to scroll through notifications and enable or disable menu settings via a push.

mVoice G2’s smart display is overlaid with 3D minute and hour markers and mechanical hands that provide users with the current time for up to 60 days per one charge. Smart features such as voice calling or accessing voice assistants like Siri, the Google Assistant or Alexa, which is uniquely enabled in the mVoice G2 App, allow users to ask for directions, request information or services, order products and control smart home devices with voice, hands-free, at home or on the go.  Easily activate voice calling, voice commands and the notification status with a flick of the wrist. Simply enable/disable the “Wrist On” feature in the App and select the preferred voice assistant to be initiated when triggering this unique feature.

“Martian introduced the first analog smartwatch with voice calling and voice commands in 2012.

Since then, voice capabilities and the connected devices utilizing these capabilities have emerged progressively,” says Szybala. “We are very excited to introduce a sophisticated voice hybrid to the market, giving consumers a convenient option to use voice assistants, simply by the natural process of speech.”

Two-way data enables users to receive and reply to emails and texts or set alarms and alerts with a simple voice command or on the digital watch display in the mVoice G2 App. Navigate different custom display faces via the smart crown to scroll through the last 20 messages received, pair other connected or smart home devices and customize App notifications. Calling an Uber, ordering Starbucks, and even shopping on Amazon has never been easier with mVoiceG2.

Discreet VIP notifications are provided via LED and vibration alerts, customizable within the App to allow users to assign up to five colors to five groups of either people or Apps. Users will then know who the alert is from based on color of the LED notification, and can chose when and how to respond at their convenience.

mVoice G2’s SII AB12 gearbox features Auto Time Sync, a stopwatch and features like Do Not Disturb settings and phone leash alerts. Added smartphone camera shutter controls make it easy to take pictures without needing to hold a phone, while weather and world clock settings provide real-time updates from anywhere in the world.

mVoice G2’s rich feature set, convenience and timeless style will keep users connected, informed, and in sync with their digital lifestyle as the use of voice activation and digital assistants continues to grow.

Martian G2 App

The accompanying Martian G2 app makes it easy to customize watch settings and view a quick snapshot of the day. The Home Tab provides a look at VIP setup and contacts, battery life and connection status.

A custom Alexa tab integrates with Alexa directly, allowing users to access Alexa voice assistant from the App or directly from the watch. Once activated in Amazon account settings, Alexa is ready to talk, by either tapping on the Alexa icon in the center of the app page, pressing the top watch pusher to initiate the assistant, or with a simple flick of the wrist if “Wrist On” is enabled.
