When you save an image to your smartphone, those data are written onto tiny transistors that are electrically switched on or off in a pattern of bits to represent and encode that image. Most transistors today are made from silicon, an element that scientists have managed to switch at ever-smaller scales, enabling billions of bits, and therefore large libraries of images and other files, to be packed onto a single memory chip.
But growing demand for data, and the means to store them, is driving scientists to search beyond silicon for materials that can push memory devices to higher densities, speeds, and security.
Unique Experience
Abraham s goal was to create a progressive and evocative space that translates the Tatler DNA of power, influence and style. I wanted to evoke the luxurious nature of the Tatler lifestyle and infuse that with a sense of locality, she explains. As such the space is a marriage of modern luxury meets young and playful brought through a balanced blend of raw and refined, high and low, muted and bold.
Indeed the result echoes Malaysian culture in a new and innovative way, where local talents are celebrated while the interplay of influences, materiality, and colours lends an unexpected edge for a space that is refreshing and unique in Kuala Lumpur.
Abraham takes guests through a journey of colours and textures, beginning with the receiving area showcasing the Tatler House logo mounted on a custom-built screen amongst a striking orange and black palette. The walls are adorned with large-scale artwork, namely Anniketyni Madian s
Berasok wooden sculpture and Justin Lim s edgy mixed-media

(Buden), are just the start of discovering the breadth of the AFK Collection who generously loaned all the art found in the suite.
The mood shifts walking into the living room where Abraham created a calming space evocative of California chic with a warm palette of soft neutrals against earthy tones. An eclectic range of furniture from Arketipo, Olta and Janine, to name a few, feature relaxed proportions, while statement pieces such as the handcrafted armchair with wicker detail from Nic Chris and contemporary hand-made carpets Persian Collections captivate the eye.

Tufty Time by B&B Italia
Patricia Urquiola s Tufty Time for B&B Italia is her updated interpretation of the Chesterfield
Leave it to Patricia Urquiola to reinvent the Chesterfield sofa for B&B Italia in the modern, relevant and high desirable form of the Tufty Time. A modular system that can be added or subtracted according to personal requirements, it is also a cosy piece courtesy of its generous proportions.
