Edit.03 of The Lifestyle Edit is presented in partnership with AG1 and DeepView.
Their support helps fund our independent editorial.
EDITOR’S LETTER:
This edition brings together three very different spaces — a gelato bar in London, a 19th-century engine shed in Camden, and a leather goods brand founded in Hong Kong — but they share something structural.
Each is built with intent.
Bilmonte produces its gelato beneath the shop floor, using Sicilian ingredients with an almost obsessive attention to process. The Roundhouse continues to hold live sound inside a Victorian industrial shell designed long before amplification existed. Grams28 approaches leather goods from the inside out, prioritising reinforcement and longevity over surface design.
None of these are new concepts. What matters is execution.
The Lifestyle Edit isn’t about novelty. It’s about examining how things are made, how they hold up, and whether they justify their presence in daily life.
This week’s pieces reward that kind of attention. Hope you enjoy.

EXPERIENCE
Sound in the Round - Roundhouse:
A 19th-century engine shed reimagined as a performance space, holding sound with architectural precision.
Watching live music here was about immersion, not spectacle — and the venue’s restoration levy underscores a commitment to preserving cultural infrastructure.
PRODUCT
Engineered Leather - Grams28:
A Hong Kong leather brand that prioritises structure beneath surface aesthetics.
Through internal lamination and material discipline, Grams28 bags retain form and composure over repeated use — a carrier designed to feel composed, deliberate and durable. residence built around movement, recovery and work.
PLACE
Cold Craft in Soho - Bilmonte:
A Soho gelateria rooted in Sicilian craft — where gelato is handcrafted beneath the shop using premium ingredients and texture is everything.
Pistachio, chocolate and brioche here speak to restraint in flavour, not theatrical sweetness. A place where simplicity becomes the point.
The Lifestyle Edit is curated by Vitae Wellness — exploring living, place and product through use rather than trend.
