Prestige Indonesia - May 2023

في هذه القضية

As I was hosting a charming John Hardy event in April, I was once again amazed by the talent and creativity that lives around us. Craftsmanship is an art that is often overlooked in today’s fast-paced world. So, tI’m dedicating this issue to celebrating the craft of the artisan, both local and global. It gives me great pleasure to introduce the theme of our May 2023 edition: The Craft Issue. In this issue, we showcase the resurgence of age-old techniques and the drive to retain, modernize, and spotlight them. From the crafts of the gastronome to the watchmaker, the jeweller, and the elite furniture makers, we highlight how these modern artisans keep traditions alive while creating something new and exciting. Our Cover Story features Naomi Julia Soegianto, the founder of NJS Gold, one of Indonesia’s most prominent jewellery manufacturers. We delve into her inspiring journey, from her humble beginnings to the heights of success, as well as the personal touches this influential entrepreneur infuses into each piece of jewellery she creates. I am also excited to share the stories of our other compelling profiles, including – exposed for the first time on media – Alexander Kusuma, CEO of ASRI, as he shares his story and the future of the real estate company. Pasquale Jr. Natuzzi, a designer and businessperson, and Merysia Enggalhardjo, a prominent figure of SANIHARTO upscale furniture designer, also shared their thoughts. These individuals have made their mark in their respective fields, and we are honoured to showcase their stories. We also bring you a round-up of the best new hotels opening globally in 2023 and a recap of our Prestige Luxury Weekend Getaway at the new AYANA Segara Bali with selected VIPs and friends of the magazine, which I had the utmost pleasure of hosting. As always, we hope this issue inspires you and fills you with wonder and excitement, especially about the many brilliant crafts that complete our lives.
