For this collection, we invited Anton D. Javier, the associate editor of CATALOG magazine, to curate products that can - hopefully - let you indulge in an opulent lifestyle, almost like a vacation right at home.
CATALOG magazine is a monthly publication that chronicles the best in fashion, shopping, art, design and lifestyle. View Anton's curated collection here, and scroll down to find out more about Anton and the CATALOG team's upcoming plans.
The New Forward is the brainchild of Keat and Aizyl, both of whom are passionate about helping designers within the Southeast Asian region gain more exposure about their art.

Enjoy browsing through the products that the duo have thoughtfully selected here, and read on to find out more about them and what they do!
