Project description
www.lifeandstyle.ro is a soulful project. We want to bring people happiness and we believe that at this very moment, we can do this by offering beautiful things, showing you successful experiences and projects. We strongly believe that these will bring along spiritual satisfactions, will transmit positive energy and inspiration to people who interact with us. The initiators have started the project Lifeandstyle during the Covid19 Pandemic, finding in this negative event an opportunity for a new beginning in transmitting information and trying to educate The public in several fields. The pandemic phenomenon that spread around the globe will most probably lead to important changes in architecture, constructions, design, living, life styles and not last in the way information will be transmitted, perceived and implemented. Information and education of the population are necessary and also of those who propose and implement solutions, i.e. architects, designers, builders. In Romania, the printed magazines like home&deco, Casa Lux, Caminul, Domus, Planul casei mele have almost all disappeared, having been replaced by On line sites and strictly limited blogs with poor content, most of them of interior design. They are not up to actual needs and they mostly are not interactive. Lifeandstyle site has 4 sections: ARCHITECTURE, DESIGN, LIFESTYLE AND ART. We think that this concept is the only one associating these fields naturally, offering the possibility of a unitary approach. We are going to present editorials, projects, reports, interviews of architects, designers, trendsetters, important personalities, news, products/ collections launchings, events. Also local and international projects, major trends presented in the most important world fairs and exhibitions, Today’s themes and important problems like sustainability, ecology, redefining of the essential are going to be treated first and foremost, as well as the responsibility for the environment, patrimony, traditions. And all of these with a a view to identifying a comfortable and at the same time responsible contemporary lifestyle. We are the first publication in this country to present the theme of the active house versus the passive house. We will also present cultural events, launching of books and Art shows. The aim of this site is to educate the taste of the public and at the same time establish a presentation platform for architects and designers which would become a source of inspiration for consumers, for those who build a house, rebuild and arrange an apartment.
