This fall, Twin Farms in Barnard, Vermont reopens its spa at a moment when wellness has become one of the defining differentiators in luxury hospitality. Twin Farms is one of the most singular luxury escapes in the US, and the spa is built to match that standard. Our design draws from Vermont's barn vernacular: hand-hewn beams, stacked stone, soft plaster, a material palette that feels as though the building has always belonged to the landscape. A 60-foot pool flows from interior to exterior through an operable window wall, one of only two swim-in, swim-out configurations in Vermont. We had the pleasure of collaborating with wellness expert Lydia Mondavi, whose programming informed the guest journey: hot and cold plunges, steam, and a cold-therapy snow flurry feature. A post-treatment lounge anchored by a double-sided stone fireplace completes the experience. The global wellness economy is growing at nearly twice the rate of global GDP, on track to reach nearly $10 trillion by 2029. Wellness real estate is the fastest-growing sector within it, and guest expectations are rising alongside. Luxury wellness spaces work best when the design is so thoughtful that instead of it being a wow factor, guests simply feel held by it. That's Hospitable Thinking applied to wellness: every detail in service of the experience. #TwinFarms #WellnessDesign #SpaDesign #HospitalityDesign #LuxuryWellness #HotelDesign #InteriorDesign #Vermont

Cindy Allen has been leading Interior Design Magazine for twenty-five years. Twenty-five years ago, AvroKO opened its doors. We have quite literally grown up together. Twenty-five years at the helm of one of the world's most influential design publications is no small thing. Cindy has spent that time championing design with a rigor and consistency that has genuinely shaped the industry, giving platforms to deserving work, holding a standard that pushed everyone to do better, and doing it all with an unwavering point of view. That kind of editorial commitment matters. It tells designers and firms something important: the work resonates beyond the room it was designed for. We are grateful to have been in her orbit, and to have had projects like W Prague, The Jay, HOST on Howard, Calistoga Motor Lodge, Perry Lane, and others find their way into her pages over the years. Here's to 25 years, Cindy! The industry is better for every one of them. #InteriorDesignMagazine #AvroKO #25Years #HospitalityDesign #InteriorDesign

The answer begins in the residences themselves: a quiet confidence that runs from the white oak kitchens with honed marble countertops to the primary bathrooms with freestanding soaking tubs positioned to face the golf course, through to powder rooms anchored by dramatic veined marble vanities that make an understated but unmistakable statement. Bedrooms that open onto wraparound terraces, the South Florida landscape stretching out beyond floor-to-ceiling glass. And then it extends outward. A hammam stripped back to pure serenity. A games room with bowling lanes, billiards, and a proper bar. A children's playroom designed with the same craft and imagination as every other space in the building. Not a single space was designed as an afterthought. 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗽𝗹𝗲, 𝗮 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝘆, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗼 𝗯𝘂𝘆𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲.

A spacecraft-shaped lobby with a crystal chandelier suspended at its heart, the kind of arrival that makes coming home feel like an occasion. A living and dining room with movable partitions that transforms seamlessly from an intimate gathering space into a grand event venue. A cooking studio designed for residents to share culinary moments. A coffee bar beneath a dramatic dome-shaped brass ceiling, with Victoria Harbour as the backdrop. A PDR with a marble show kitchen, perfect for hosting. And a cafe-deli and wine lounge for good measure.
