Daktari for Maasai: Mobile Dental Clinic For The Maasai People

Be the reason someone smiles today. Compliment a stranger, hug a loved one or commit to doing at least one random act of kindness each day. As we gear up for the season of giving, remember that sometimes it takes only one act of kindness to change another person’s life. With this in mind, here’s a feel-good story, just in time for the festive season, which involves a lot of smiling … literally.

International Excellence Luxury Magazine photographed the Alfa Romeo 4C Spider at The Devonshire Club in London. This little beauty in yellow drew many admiring glances during the shoot, and was a delight to drive through London even during rush hour.
Our own Yves de Contades photographed the lovely Zavi (Zavinta Karsokaite) from Profile Models, who was a pleasure to work with and strikingly beautiful from every angle.

Who Can The Super Rich Trust?

When I was at Simmons & Simmons a partner in the corporate department, Richard, collared me in the corridor, ‘I don’t know what you do exactly, but could you meet two brothers; clients of mine, who are about to sell their company for hundreds of millions of pounds… they would like someone to talk to!’
Of course, the answer was yes, I saw them and they became clients of mine; a relationship which lasted many, many years – but, what did I do for them?

The Gunton Arms Norfolk Review

The Gunton Arms Norfolk Review

It is strange to compare a couple of points with two very different areas; Norfolk and France’s Alsace.  Neither is really on the way to anywhere so it is peaceful and most roads are uncrowded, but both have a few touristic centres which have rather too many people visiting in the high season.  I would add that both have some stunning scenery and other interesting features which make them both very desirable areas to visit.

Loch Lomond Whisky Single Malt Tasting

Loch Lomond Whisky Single Malt Tasting

Loch Lomond Whisky is a Highland single malt distillery in Alexandria, Scotland. The master blender is Michael Henry, who created the selection of single malt, single grain and blended whiskies under the guidance of renowned master blender John Peterson.
The distillery uses cylindrical copper pot stills that permit production of alcohol at a higher ABV than usual, up to 90% ABV. This allows a wide range of flavours that can be selected to produce the final single malt.

The Future Of Urban Transport-Quarterre Studio

As a multi-disciplinary design studio working within this field, we are discovering that more of our attention is focused on this issue. Based in Clerkenwell, within central London, we are constantly experiencing the social and environmental impact of overcrowding, congestion and high levels of pollution. These are only set to rise with global warming and the increasing migration within cities, widely predicted to be two thirds of the world population by 2030*.

Film Review: Revolution - New Art For A New World

As Albert Einstein once said: “The Revolution introduced me to art, and in turn, art introduced me to the Revolution!”. Indeed, much the same could be said for the Russian Revolution of 1917, the 100th anniversary of which is being marked by the BBC this November with range of TV and radio broadcasts in a Russia-themed season.
While BBC Four delves into the art, architecture and music of the period, a selection of commissioned programmes examine this significant historical event and its continued impact on society.
