Bags of potential
As Christmas beckons, we circumnavigate the globe with more efficiency and insider nous than Santa himself, dropping in on the finest spots and shops to source seasonal gifts.
Getting into gear
The motor-show format has stalled recently but a new approach could help the industry turn in an exciting direction. Here’s our steer from Munich’s IAA Mobility.
Growth area
Few things determine the success of a start-up as much as location, which dictates its reach and, importantly, access to talent. Take Munich, where new technology firms are partnering with top universities.
Own it
Commissioning an artwork gives you a chance to be part of the creative process, as well as the thrill of not quite knowing what the result will be.
Space exploration
Creative businesses need studios where people come together. These three companies show how you can create inspiring projecs and still have money left in the bank. Steal their ideas.
Good to go
On the move? Whether you're getting into your stride on foot or hitting the town on two wheels, now is the time to travel in style.
The real thing
Other trade shows might be more glamorous but Expo Real is where Europe’s biggest and most significant deals are cut. We head to Bavaria to peer through the windows of real-estate’s future.
If you build it
At Munich's Bauma — the world's largest trade fair by exhibition space — brass bands, bratwurst and choreographed diggers are drawing families, crane-spotters and a new generation of construction enthusiasts.
Ewe beauty
Sculptor Gabriela von Habsburg is most relaxed when tending to her beloved sheep.
Moving the pieces
At Expo Real, a three-day real-estate extravaganza in Germany, investors, developers and urbanists thrash out the deals that will shape our cities in the years to come. Monocle peeks at the future of property.
