Architecture | Life House has been designed by John Pawson as a place for calm and reflection. Located in mid Wales, near the town of Llanbister, it is a timeless example of architectural simplicity and beauty based on the concept of a retreat, where serenity, contemplation and restoration are foremost.

Interiors | Designed by HIL Architects, a suburban space was turned into a modern temple. A meditation and yoga centre in Huanghua was inspired by nearby wetlands, offering a calm retreat to those who search for a contemporary shrine.

Interior | Evidens de Beauté is the French-Japanese cosmetic brand with the experience of 10 years on the market. They joined their forces with a Paris-based Emmanuelle Simon to design a space literally bringing beauty.

Interior | Located in Collingwood, Australia, Ashtanga Yoga Studio is an unequaled project designed by Richard Stampton Architects.

Architecture | Though the house of the artist Anselm Reyle and the architect Tanja Lincke resembles a massive brutalist concrete Greek cross, inside one has the sense of floating in the air: The structure is balanced 14 feet above the ground on sturdy concrete pillars that give the building views over the wide, slow-moving Spree River.
