Featured properties highlight how homes are intrinsically linked to time and place. For example, a former mill in rural Canada is transformed into an idyllic retreat that retains all of its charm, while a Chicago home from 1888 maintains the integrity of period details with modern amenities. Meanwhile, in South Africa, sublime views are married with community and a 19th-century villa in Portugal boasts ties to a storied past of kings and queens. Design articles give insight into carefully considered entranceways and the exceptionally crafted lighting of Louis Poulsen. Travel inspiration includes horseback riding experiences infused with cultural connections in Argentina and exceptional service from the world's finest hotels. The lifestyle section explores the realities of modern butlers and the fine art of tablescaping. “Whether an architectural focal point, a perfectly placed piece of décor or the gift of having every moment of a vacation taken care of, this issue is full of reminders as to why details are so important,” Ms. Powers said.Luxury Portfoliomagazine is published biannually and distributed through the organization’s global network of independent real estate brokerages, airport lounges, and Barnes & Noble stores and other newsstands in the United States and Canada.
