"There are places that stay on your mind for years – those you’ve been dreaming of seeing for a long time, or those you’ve been to and can’t wait to revisit. Surrounded by pristine nature and home to welcoming locals, St. Moritz is such a place. This second issue of «St. Moritz» magazine rekindles the spirit that makes this iconic mountain town tick, from the sight of the early-morning sun rising above the mountains to the excitement of unwinding with friends after a wholesome day out.
We immerse ourselves in the region’s natural splendour, go behind the scenes at the Festival da Jazz and Tavolata, talk work and play with Margherita Missoni and let loose in St. Moritz’s buzzing nightlife haunts. Via profiles of the most forward-thinking local entrepreneurs and a visit to the eccentric family abode of Susanne and Matteo Thun, the magazine shines a spotlight on the colourful community celebrating elevated living in the town’s famously down-to-earth style. Enjoy exploring St. Moritz in their company."

Annick Weber
Editor

St. Moritz magazine is a new publication that covers all the news, views and stories from life at the top of the world. From food to fashion, it offers an elevated take on the town’s extraordinary people, culture and lifestyle.

The official publication of St. Moritz takes a fresh look at the refined living, world-class culture, exhilarating sports and pristine natural beauty that can only be found in this mountain metropolis. The launch issue includes a feature on the Snow Polo World Cup St. Moritz; a tour around conceptual artist Rolf Sachs’s sporting Alpine home; a revealing interview with PR maven Karla Otto; all the fashion essentials you need to stay chic and cosy at 1,856 metres above sea level; and much more.

St. Moritz magazine is published by ESTM AG and edited, designed and produced by Winkreative, the global creative agency founded by Monocle editor-in-chief Tyler Brûlé. Inspired by the sense of perspective and clarity of thought afforded by St. Moritz’s lofty position, Winkreative took a unique approach to creating the magazine, with editorial features that convey “Views from the top”, a larger print format, a stacked logotype and art direction that makes the most of the area’s striking light and shadow.

04 / Los Angeles

“Los Angeles can serve as a reminder that real vitality always had to confront a divergent reality. It continues to draw an active counterculture willing to beat its own path against the traffic just like in the past. Progressive runaways in the footsteps of those seeking to free body and mind. People who don’t just want to fit in, but rather find what makes them mindful in a blindly spinning world. Los Angeles continues to be a lab for modern ideas, maybe more so than ever because it has to. Chasing happiness on revolving rubber or in digital illusions does not really work, even in HD. We found some alternative answers right on this city’s tarmac. They won’t solve all our problems but at least they are a step forward and not a dead end. Welcome to Los Angeles.”

Mit dieser Ausgabe von CURVES, einer großartigen Runde in vier Etappen durch Thailand, ändert sich hier etwas zum ersten Mal ganz spürbar. Sie halten die erste asiatische CURVES-Ausgabe in den Händen. Und dieses Asien, Südostasien, Thailand ist so profund anders als jede andere Destination, die uns bisher unter die Räder kam, dass unsere Herkunft plötzlich ins Auge fallen musste – am allermeisten uns selbst. Wir sind fremde Beobachter in einer Welt, deren Botschaften wir nur interpretieren können, deren Rhythmus uns gelegentlich ins Stolpern bringt und die uns genau deshalb so in ihren Bann gezogen hat. Das disruptive Element des Reisens ist auf unserer Tour durch Thailand so stark wie nie zuvor zutage getreten: Alle Vorurteile werden erschüttert, alle Erwartungen in Frage gestellt oder übertroffen. Neues muss erlebt und verkraftet werden, es zwingt sich einem in buntem, herausforderndem und glücklich machendem Rausch regelrecht auf, eine bequeme oder schonende Alternative gibt es nicht.

However, this issue of CURVES, an amazing four-stage tour through Thailand, changes things quite markedly for the first time. What you’re holding in your hands is the first Asian issue of CURVES. And this Asia, southeast Asia, Thailand is so profoundly different from any other destination we’ve covered so far that our origins suddenly became blatantly obvious – most of all, to ourselves. We are foreign observers in a world, the messages of which we can merely interpret, the rhythms of which cause us to stumble and that, for precisely this reason, has drawn us under its spell. The disruptive element of travel emerged on our tour of Thailand more forcefully than ever before. All preconceptions are shattered, all expectations questioned or exceeded. New things have to be experienced and absorbed. This reality forces itself upon you in a colourful, challenging and ecstatic rush. There is no comfortable or soft alternative.

“Running is one of our primal activities besides eating, sleeping, and sex. For survival, humans had to both chase and escape. Runaway started 2018 by exploring the latter. After searching the souls of two of our favorite cities, we felt it was about time to search our own. While the West used to carry the promise of a new age for all seekers of alternatives, Runaway is heading east from Brooklyn—time for a new direction in a changing world. Right across the ocean in Portugal we found a great spot for more than California dreaming. While the sheltered Mediterranean draws people who are ready to retire, Portugal's windswept Atlantic Coast is perfect for those who need space to breathe. It not only produces some of Europe's biggest waves and has helped define a unique country, it’s also a great place to run.”

Yolo Journal – A Magazine from Yolanda Edwards.

Wir haben uns in Transhelvetica #59 ein bisschen von der Haustüre weg gewagt und sogar ein kleinwenig über den Tellerrand gespäht. Aber keine Sorge, auch in dieser Ausgabe sind wir der Schweiz – wie schon in den vergangenen zehn Jahren – treu geblieben. Vielmehr haben wir uns von der Ferne inspirieren lassen. Denn ohne die Lebenslust des Südens, ohne die liebevoll reduzierten Objekten aus dem Norden, ohne die ruhebringenden Philosophien des Fernen Osten und ohne die knisternde Erotik aus dem Westen wäre es im Réduit solide farblos. So sind wir quer durchs Land und gleichzeitig «In 80 Seiten um die Welt» gereist.

VOLUME SIX: ENDLESS

The stories in this issue explore the theme of endless; deserted landscapes stretching beyond the limits of our imagination.

Through ‘Endless’ we showcase vast, open deserts, desolate wastelands and roads cutting through dunes into the horizon. With visual stories from places such as the Namib Desert, Death Valley, and the Atacama, our pages glow with that fractured gleam of long, intense sunsets. It is easy to celebrate their effortless beauty, but we also explore the reality of what it means to face something that feels endless, and the negatives that can sit alongside this. Sometimes it is just as important to have an ending in sight, to have something concrete to progress towards. We realise that often, we need a beginning and an end to provide significance and meaning, and that the absence of these can result in deep uncertainty.

• This publication is 144 pages, perfect bound and printed on uncoated, 100% recycled paper.

• Ships worldwide: delivery times varying based on location. Please allow up to 3 business days for processing prior to shipping.

NORTHLETTERS MAGAZINE throws a light on the Nordic, its stories, nature, culture and soul. NL2 is our female summer edition. It has a focus on the soul and gives space to a selection of female contributors from around the globe to express themselves freely about topics that are meaningful for them. Summer is the time to slow down and to become more aware of ourselves, our bodies, souls and minds, the time to recognize what is doing us harm and what is supporting and inspiring us. Summer is the time for traveling or spending time in the countryside, time and space to discover the possibilities beyond our outer and inner borders. NL2 is telling stories about how to become and stay safe, self-aware, strong and well-balanced. It never was easy to define our own constraints and take care of our souls. It becomes more and more important to support each other. NL2 has invited women with a powerful spirit to tell their stories about defining themselves. We want to inspire our readers to free their minds, to discover their braveness, wishes, dreams and goals and to express them.

In NL2 we meet adventurer Caitlin Fullam who describes the blending of feminine and masculine energy, Nanje Nowack who reflects the art of self acceptance and Kam Vachon who inspires us with the art of being less expectant and more grounded in inner balance. Aurore Morisse tells her touching story of being different and artist Laura Lereveur magically describes the limitations a dictated world is imposing on our mind. We again meet NL1 contributors with very personal stories: Frederique Peckelsen who is looking for places that equal her inside, and Lise Ulrich with her poetic interpretation of female friendship. We read Valerie Schöneich’s inspiring story about soul pain and self growth. We get to know Elisabeth Sofie Hovde who tells about Nordic summer days in her home near the sea. We accompany photographer Christina Strehlow to her peaceful house in Skåne, and photographer Gunn Kristin Monsen to her Norwegian country home, listening to the sound of the lake and a life full of simplicity and calming beauty. Elise Boreham reflects the impact our homes have on our inner well being: „Home is what we make it. The more you build it and nurture it, the more it will care for you.“ And we discover the visual world of female International artists Noémi Ottilia Szabo, Marta Bevacqua, Charlotte Lapalus, Elisa Vendramin and Frieda Mellema who create a sensual and dreamy visual world for NL2. Finally we meet Photographer Thomas Kettner, Co founder of NORTHLETTERS magazine.

We invite you to continue reading with Laura Lereveur’s words:

„I live best – most creatively, thoughtfully, innovatively, emotionally, physically, sincerely, lovingly – in betweens. Between beauty and ugliness, or reality and dreams; between within and without. Between dancing and fighting. I wear scarred boots instead of beautiful slippers, and walk through the rotten and the fragrant. I collect stains and scratches, bruise my knees. I find familiars in the wilds, bathe in puddles, hide in ancient trees, curse at skies, take tea with demons.And that is how I have made my life.“

The Belonging Volume

The Belonging Volume takes a planetary perspective to reflect on the significance of our existence and that of the intricate network of ecosystems we inhabit. It explores how intimate knowledge of nature can enable us to feel at home outdoors, and how finding wonder in our everyday lives can profoundly impact our worldview. It listens to the voices of the younger generation and ruminates on the concept of intergenerational equity, and it hears stories of collective action to tackle some of today’s most pressing issues. It inspires us to humbly step back from our anthropogenic view on the world so we may find belonging in nature and come home to ourselves.
