That's what we stand for
We're overwhelmed by the presence of globalization, time, silence and authenticity became the real precious goods of today's life.
Time
If luxury means to dare for something you can't have but all the rules and structures define and limit our daily routines, then having free time is the real luxury.
Silence
Where to find silence nowadays? We don't find it in the production, in office, while shopping and not in the most restaurants. Even a walk in the nature is overshadowed by all the noise around.
So getting rid of those immissions is luxury on it's own.
Authenticity
But not only abstract values stand for luxury.
Crafts, local trades and selfmade goods became important in a time where discounters and supermarkets try to achieve higher market shares regardless of the side-effects. Purity and tradition indicate this authenticity.
This means authenticity is a luxury as well.
Dispensation as a piece of luxury
Luxury can't be measured only on monetary facts in a time where luxury is a fuzzy, not well defined term and to strive for higher targets became our daily companion.
So everyone defines it's luxury individually and differently, the poor might say it's a daily meal, the rich tend to a high balance and a residence at the lakeside.
So luxury isn't a bad thing, we all want luxury, everyone on his own way. Oscar Wild said:
" i'm a modest man, I just want to have the best". But the best doesn't mean the most expensive, luxury has to be authentic without red herrings.
