The JWH Edit - October 2015

"This issue of The Johnnie Walker House Edit is centered on the theme of obsession. It examines the pursuits of individuals who have taken their passion to a whole new level with great success not only for themselves but also society at large. While the profile feature on former footballer and style icon David Beckham emphasises his passion to further humanitarian causes, the interview with filmmaker Jake Scott characterises the crucial role of passion in achieving our goals. 

In this volume, the articles throw light on the positive attributes of obsession as well as how the subject of an individual's fixation outlines the socio-cultural behaviour in a contemporary context. On one hand, the features on our obsession with social media and perfect physical beauty address the changing social mores, and on the other, it hails the obsession shown towards the minutest details in the ateliers of bespoke menswear creators and the kitchens of award-winning chefs that gives their respective crafts an edge over the rest. Other topics of conversation include articles on our unwavering fascination for customised Scotch Whisky blends, storied luxury brands and skyscrapers."
