Travel
Travel is about more than destinations, it's about the experiences, spaces, and design details that shape the journey. THE FLUXX's Travel section explores the world through a design lens, uncovering the boutique hotels, private villas, design-led retreats, and cultural experiences where creativity and craftsmanship take centre stage.
Here, we spotlight the city breaks and hotel guides worth booking, the beach clubs and island escapes built for long lunches and slower days, and the wellness retreats and relaxation-led stays where travel becomes its own kind of restoration. From architectural landmarks to beautifully designed hideaways, we curate the experiences, cultural moments, and considered stays that turn a trip into something unforgettable.
Whether it's a design hotel making waves, a beach club worth the journey, or the city breaks shaping how the world travels well, Travel is where experience, atmosphere, and a sense of place come together.
