Cooking from the heart, designing with precision: Chef James Won and Gaggenau’s culinary partnership

To honour Chef James Won’s appointment as Gaggenau’s first Malaysian Culinary Partner, we asked the gastronomic luminaire about parallels between Gaggenau’s ethos and his own practice, his multidimensional vision of Modern Malaysian – and how his early experiences of KFC’s accessible, bold flavours influenced his concept of fine dining.

The uncharted plate: Ivan Brehm’s pursuit of crossroads cooking with Gaggenau and human connection.

In this candid interview, the culinary mastermind behind Singapore’s Nouri and Appetite talks about food as an act of human connection that transcends borders and accolades, the crucial role of technology in preserving its unifying power, and finding a kindred spirit in Gaggenau’s reverence for tradition and relentless pursuit of innovation.

Statement stone: At home with Quartzite’s unimposing opulence

Emerging from millennia of geological force, each exquisite slab tells a singular narrative etched by time and tectonic power. And this luxurious dwelling serves as a masterful recontextualisation of this enduring beauty, highlighting the extraordinary aesthetic and uncompromising strength as the ultimate expressions of residential grandeur.
