Nielsen Dinwoodie added, “We are so delighted to share these exciting details about our new publication, and to amplify the knowledge and insights gleaned through the worldwide network of experts at Forbes Global Properties in a new, creative and compelling way.”
The premiere issue will take readers through an all-access tour of 10 storied stops around the world of Forbes Global Properties. Readers will drop into Australia’s top wineries while learning the science behind biodynamic wine, then journey over to Singapore to learn how Koi carp keep the city calm. First-hand reporting from Dubai’s Design District will examine the desert capital’s newest cultural hub, while a new arrival and a longtime local explore the classic and lesser-known charms of Carnegie Hill, a famed neighborhood on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. To commemorate the 20th anniversary year of The Gherkin in London, design and architecture author Alyn Griffiths will look at how the slinky pickle-shaped building’s influence spans continents.
Additional highlights of the debut issue include how Paris is responding to global appetites ahead of this summer’s Olympics, a roundup of the design hits that captured attention at this year’s Salone del Mobile in Milan, the tech underpinning of some of the Algarve’s most forward-looking residential architecture, and how San Miguel de Allende has captured the attention of the Michelin Guide through its iconic food scene. Finally, this issue’s featured essay dives into the allure of island life, asking whether surf, sun and solitude are the ideal recipe for residential bliss.
