This issue will transport you across countries and continents where craft and culture converge. Evocative travel portfolios reveal Japan's elegant restraint, Peru's sacred churches ablaze with color, and striking architecture in a fading Addis Ababa. Inspiring minds from the late Giorgio Armani to Nikolai von Bismarck spark curiosity, while exclusive homes—from the dazzling Burghley House in England and an Anglo-Italian dream in Milan, to a Dionysian retreat in Patmos and a historic Pennsylvania farmhouse—become portals that recall, evoke and transport. 

 

We also celebrate the artisans who keep ancient traditions alive: African drum makers whose rhythmic craft echoes through generations, Incan descendants in Peru whose nimble fingers weave stories into textiles, English bell makers whose skills ring out in places of worship, and countless others whose talented hands preserve and shape our visual world. In this special issue, featuring Guest Editor Gwyneth Paltrow, you will find that histories, geographies, and cultures come together in a symphony of beauty and discovery.
