Project Holiday Magazine · Las Cosas
Las Cosas for Holiday Magazine functions as a masterclass in editorial product photography, masterfully blurring the line between high-fashion commercialism and fine art still life. Through the lens of photographer Dougal Macarthur, the series explores the tension between manufactured luxury and raw, organic environments. Each composition channels a minimalist sensibility, pairing high-end accessories—from sculptural silver jewelry and leather goods to an ultra-flat Richard Mille timepiece—with discordant natural elements like banana blossoms, raw corn, and vibrant tropical fruits. The deliberate choice to emphasize texture, such as the matte grain of leather against the grit of industrial concrete or the glossy finish of metal alongside the soft decay of organic matter, creates a compelling visual dialogue. These images leverage natural light to highlight every subtle curve and reflective surface, ensuring the focus remains squarely on the interplay of materiality. Set designer Mila Taylor-Young brings an intentionality to these arrangements, using surfaces ranging from crinkled paper to textured plywood to ground the objects in a tangible space. Whether through tight macro shots that capture liquid-like metallic curves or wider, clean compositions that elevate everyday refuse into ornamental subjects, the project successfully captures a sophisticated, tactile aesthetic. The work serves as a prime example of editorial minimalism, where the art of the arrangement is just as critical as the objects themselves, resulting in a cohesive, thought-provoking portfolio.
Project Holiday Magazine · How Binx Rose
For the pages of Holiday Magazine, the feature How Binx Rose serves as a masterclass in editorial minimalism, stripping back the noise of contemporary fashion photography to focus entirely on silhouette and texture. Captured by photographer Krisztián Éder under the guidance of creative director Franck Durand, the series presents model Binx Walton as a singular, evolving architectural form. The visual narrative leans into a restrained, neutral palette, where the interplay of light and shadow becomes as vital as the garments themselves. Utilizing a mix of studio strobe and natural light, the project balances the sharp, sculptural lines of high-fashion apparel with an intimate, unadorned presence. With meticulous fashion styling by Jérôme André and art direction from Raquel Andrés, the imagery moves fluidly between clean, high-key studio portraits and more grounded, textural compositions. Techniques like chiaroscuro are employed with surgical precision to accentuate the contours of Walton’s face and the intricate draping of the featured pieces, while Erol Karadağ and Karin Westerlund refine the look with slicked-back hair and a raw, glowing beauty aesthetic. This project functions as an essential study in modern fashion editorial work, proving that through careful composition and a dedicated minimalist approach, the simplest environments can yield the most striking and enduring visual statements within the luxury fashion sector.

By blending earthy textures with clean, architectural lines, the project maintains an observational and intimate mood across its vertical compositions. The editorial features fashion direction and styling by Jérôme André, who pairs voluminous, structured outerwear and layered fabrics with muted tones.

Project Holiday Magazine · Villa Gloria by Paw Gissel
In Villa Gloria, photographer Paw Gissel turns his lens toward the quiet, lived-in realities of a peripheral community, creating a visual narrative that oscillates between reportage and intimate documentary. This editorial series for Holiday Magazine avoids the artifice of traditional lifestyle photography, instead opting for a raw, honest exploration of daily life. By utilizing natural light as his primary medium, Gissel accentuates the texture of weathered wooden architecture and the subtle, dusty atmosphere of a seaside setting. The project channels a cinematic sense of place, grounding its subjects against backdrops of fading paint, makeshift gyms, and wide, overexposed horizons. Whether capturing a shirtless youth holding a fresh catch or the silhouetted figures of men playing soccer at twilight, the work feels remarkably present. Gissel employs diverse lighting techniques, including high-key beach exposures and low-key chiaroscuro that bathes humble dwellings in golden, dusk-filled warmth. This combination of portraiture and landscape provides a visceral look at the intersection of human endurance and rural routine. The result is a collection that reads as both personal and expansive, where the informal architecture and the quietude of the inhabitants tell a story of resilience and simple, unvarnished existence. Through Gissel's restrained, documentary-style lens, Villa Gloria becomes a hauntingly beautiful study of light, texture, and the overlooked corners of the world.
Project Holiday Magazine · Holiday Interiors and Gardens Issue ...
For the latest edition of Holiday Magazine, the Holiday Interiors and Gardens Issue serves as a profound visual meditation on the intersection of human intimacy and the natural world. Under the meticulous creative direction of Franck Durand, the feature titled The Butterfly Exception moves beyond traditional nature photography to capture the delicate, fragile essence of metamorphosis. Photographer Dudi Hasson masterfully employs macro and documentary techniques to bridge the gap between biological observation and lifestyle narrative. By utilizing soft, natural light, the series emphasizes the intricate textures of insect wings against the softness of human skin and rustic fabric, creating a rhythmic dialogue between the organic and the structured. The editorial layout, characterized by a minimalist design and clean typography, allows the vivid, high-contrast color palettes of the butterfly species to take center stage. Whether focusing on the quiet gaze of an elderly subject or the curious interactions of young children within a garden setting, the work channels a gentle, observant energy. These split-screen compositions manage to weave a sophisticated story that balances raw, entomological detail with a tender, human-centric focus. It is a striking example of editorial storytelling that elevates the aesthetic standards of the Magazines, Media & Entertainment industry through patient framing, deliberate juxtaposition, and a deep appreciation for the transient beauty found in small, fleeting moments of connection within our living environment.
Project Holiday Magazine · Holiday Interiors and Gardens Issue ...
The latest edition of Holiday Magazine, the Interiors and Gardens Issue, masterfully leans into an aesthetic of quiet, rustic introspection. At its heart, the editorial cover features an intimate, dimly lit bedroom scene that commands attention through a carefully curated color palette. A bold, striking red bedspread serves as the visual anchor against neutral walls, softened by the delicate, translucent layers of a mosquito net. By utilizing natural light to filter through the frame, the composition highlights raw textures and clean, architectural lines, grounding the lifestyle photography in a sense of lived-in authenticity. The project benefits significantly from the cohesive creative direction of Franck Durand, whose vision for the magazine consistently bridges the gap between high-concept design and approachable, atmospheric storytelling. Captured by a seasoned team of photographers including Adrian Gaut, Dudi Hasson, Hill & Aubrey, and Siân Davey, the imagery reflects a commitment to the art of interior spaces, where the interplay of deep green fabric drapes and subtle shadows creates a moody yet inviting sanctuary.

This collaboration results in a visually arresting piece of media that proves why Holiday remains a touchstone for those navigating the intersection of contemporary design and timeless interior curation.
Project Holiday Magazine · On the inner coast
In the latest editorial spread for Holiday Magazine, titled On the inner coast, the intersection of architectural minimalism and high-fashion avant-garde takes center stage. Captured with a sharp, disciplined eye by photographers Nicola and Manuel, this fashion campaign leans into the power of negative space and clean, geometric lines to elevate the clothing to a sculptural level. Under the creative direction of Franck Durand and art direction by Raquel Andrés, the series creates a dialogue between stark, white-walled environments and the tactile complexity of the garments. With fashion styling by Berenger Pelc, the looks oscillate between shimmering metallic drapes, dense sequin textures, and dramatic, voluminous ruffles that defy the simplicity of the studio backdrop. The project employs high-key lighting to enhance the interplay of shadow and form, particularly in shots featuring bold, oversized headwear and sheer, ruffled details. Models Nastassia Legrand and Raf Pincus navigate these minimal settings with a poise that transforms each frame into a study of balance and movement. By integrating elements like the precise set design of Eleonora Succi, the series emphasizes an editorial minimalism that feels both timeless and forward-thinking. Each portrait serves as a testament to the sophistication of luxury fashion, stripping away the extraneous to highlight the meticulous construction of textiles against the human silhouette, resulting in a refined, monochromatic visual language.
