"Living with flair\u2014the theme of this issue\u2014can mean different things to different people, as you&amp;#39;ll see from the intriguing places and lively personalities we visit this month. To a businessman and his wife with a storied Central Park West penthouse, it&amp;#39;s an urbane combination of 1940s French furniture, striking modern art, and awe-inspiring cityscape views. Hollywood talent manager Eric Kranzler revels in martini-ready, Rat Pack chic at a classic modernist house composed of wall-to-wall glass, rich walnut paneling, and gleaming terrazzo floors. For parfumeur extraordinaire Fr\u00E9d\u00E9ric Malle and his wife, Marie, it&amp;#39;s all about the mix. In their family&amp;#39;s Manhattan apartment, a Venetian Renaissance painting is paired with low-slung Italian seating, and family heirlooms share space with midcentury icons by Bertoia and Saarinen; the cheeky color palette, meanwhile, includes hot-pink and tomato-red carpets and a grass-green kitchen floor.\n\nOne of my favorite articles focuses on Ch\u00E2teau de Fontenay, a moated 16th-century estate in France. Its owner, a British entrepreneur, made myriad changes to the place but none so striking as reestablishing the ch\u00E2teau&amp;#39;s original gated entrance. Now, instead of coming in from the back of the property, visitors arrive through an all\u00E9e of ancient, towering oaks\u2014a breathtaking approach that gives the manor even more grandeur. That&amp;#39;s what I call flair.\n\n\u2014MARGARET RUSSELL, EDITOR IN CHIEF\n\n editor@archdigest.com"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
