2010 Bentley Mulsanne Debut


2010 Bentley Mulsanne Debut – The newest Bentley has made its official debut at the Pebble Beach Concours D’Elegance in Monterey, California. The Mulsanne, Bentley’s new flagship grand tourer, is an homage to the 1930 8-litre, becoming the first Bentley since that one to be designed, engineered and crafted from the ground up by Bentley engineers. Bentley offered no details of the powertrain behind this big-bodied beauty and was focused entirely on the historical symmetry between the new car and its ancestor, which shared the stage at the debut. It will go into production next year.




Gone to Brazil for the Day


Jacobsen Architecture created the GR House, in São Paulo, Brazil, which blends naturally into the surrounding gardens with the use of timber and white surfaces.

The architects designed this luxury home to make the most of its restricted space. Using open spaces creates rooms which are bathed in natural light. The contemporary private gardens envelops the home, and creates a sanctuary in a bustling city.
