Welcome to LUSH Luxury Living
An Introduction by Calandria L. Parker
Step inside the world of extraordinary design.
LUSH Luxury Living is your curated gateway to the finest in high-end interiors and architectural innovation. As an extension of LUSH Magazine’s dedication to fashion, beauty, and lifestyle excellence, this feature showcases the visionaries who are redefining luxury—the designers, architects, and artisans who transform spaces into timeless works of art.
We believe that true luxury living extends far beyond what we wear or how we present ourselves to the world. It encompasses the spaces we inhabit, the environments we create, and the atmosphere we cultivate in every corner of our lives. Just as fashion and beauty are forms of self-expression, so too is the design of our homes, offices, and gathering places. LUSH Luxury Living celebrates this holistic approach to elevated living.
From breathtaking residential masterpieces that redefine what home means, to cutting-edge design trends that push the boundaries of possibility, each feature offers an intimate look at the creative minds shaping how we live, dream, and experience beauty. We delve into the stories behind iconic spaces, explore innovative materials and techniques, and introduce you to the artisans whose hands craft the details that make a house a home and a building a landmark.
Our commitment is to bring you more than just beautiful imagery. Through exclusive interviews and in-depth profiles, we reveal the philosophies, inspirations, and personal journeys of the designers and architects who are leaving their mark on the world. We explore the intersection of form and function, sustainability and luxury, tradition and innovation. We examine how cultural movements influence design trends and how thoughtful design can transform not just spaces, but lives.
Whether you’re drawn to minimalist modernism or opulent maximalism, coastal serenity or urban sophistication, LUSH Luxury Living offers a diverse perspective on what it means to live beautifully. We feature emerging talents alongside established legends, boutique firms alongside global powerhouses, ensuring that our pages reflect the full spectrum of design excellence.
Each issue takes you behind the scenes of remarkable projects—from the initial concept sketches to the final reveal. You’ll discover the challenges overcome, the creative breakthroughs achieved, and the collaborative spirit that brings extraordinary visions to life. We explore not just the “what” of luxury design, but the “how” and the “why.”
LUSH Luxury Living is for the discerning reader who understands that our surroundings shape our experiences. It’s for those who appreciate craftsmanship, who value thoughtful design, and who believe that the spaces we create deserve the same attention and artistry as any other aspect of our lifestyle. Whether you’re planning your dream home, seeking inspiration for a renovation, or simply passionate about design, these pages are your invitation to explore, discover, and be inspired.
Discover inspiration. Meet the makers. Elevate your perspective.
Luxury, at its most refined, is never about excess. It is about intention — the deliberate choices that transform a space from beautiful to unforgettable.
We open in Beverly Hills, where Daniel Joseph Chenin, FAIA has completed Palm — a private residence that moves through gathering, retreat, and cinematic escape with the quiet confidence of design that needs nothing to prove. Across the continent, in the maple-wooded hills of Magog, Québec, https://lushmag.online/2026/03/12/daniel-joseph-chenins-bespoke-beverly-hills-home/
Matière Première Architecture crafted Perchée — a home that doesn’t sit on its landscape so much as belong to it, suspended in deliberate dialogue with the terrain beneath it. In Vancouver, Ste Marie has done something rarer still: turned the ground floor of a residential tower into a living threshold, where morning espresso and late-night hospitality coexist in three distinct, perfectly calibrated spaces.https://lushmag.online/2026/02/10/a-trilogy-of-indulgence-ste-marie-crafts-vancouvers-most-refined-daily-ritual/
The conversation extends beyond the residential. At Paris’s legendary Hôtel de Crillon, Women&Design gathered the creative industry’s most influential voices for an evening that reaffirmed what we already believe — that design, at its most meaningful, is ultimately about people and the worlds they imagine together. https://lushmag.online/2026/02/06/womendesign-a-night-of-influence-at-hotel-de-crillon/
In New York, Alexandra Barker, FAIA continues to shape that conversation through a practice rooted equally in spatial innovation, sustainability, and the evolving relationship between inhabitants and their environments. https://lushmag.online/2025/12/29/alexandra-barker-shaping-the-future-of-urban-design/
And in Provence, Bérengère Leroy brings the precision of a couturier to custom furniture, building pieces that carry the warmth of the Lubéron and the emotional intelligence of someone who designs from feeling first.https://lushmag.online/2025/12/27/berengere-leroy-the-art-of-bespoke-luxury-living/
Objects earn their place here too. KOKET’s Outburst Chandelier is the kind of piece that reframes a room entirely — a constellation of brass and hand-cut glass that commands without demanding. https://lushmag.online/2026/01/17/outburst-chandelier-a-bold-statement-in-luxury-design/
And through the documentary lens of New Orleans photographer Chad Populis, we are reminded that the best-designed spaces reveal themselves most completely in the quality of light, the placement of a single chair, the way an afternoon moves through a room.https://lushmag.online/2026/01/12/chad-populis-capturing-the-essence-of-home-design/
This is LUSH Luxury Living — a curation of the spaces, creators, and objects that define what it means to live beautifully, without apology.
