Giorgio Armani knows good houses. The Italian fashion designer’s property portfolio includes a refurbished Tuscan farmhouse in the seaside town of Forte dei Marmi, a villa complex on the Caribbean island of Antigua and a Manhattan apartment replete with panoramic Central Park views from a 3200 sq ft terrace. When wintering in Switzerland, Armani retreats to La Punt – a small Engadin Valley hamlet near Saint Moritz – and Chesa Orso Bianco (Polar Bear House), his 17th-century abode whose traditional façade contrasts with its refurbished interiors, which nod to Japanese aesthetics and are accented with polished mahogany beams.

“I’m convinced that your home is a reflection of yourself, of your personality”, says Armani. “It tells the story of who you are”.
