Voyagone's mission is to offer a trusted space brimming with consistent, high-quality content centered around design-forward experiences. It spans domains like travel, architecture, interior design, and beyond.
Those who identify as Voyagoners are drawn to the upscale and design-inspired. They aspire to a life punctuated by unparalleled experiences and derive satisfaction from milestones in travel, career, and personal endeavors.
The moniker 'Voyagone' is crafted from the melding of the French term 'Voyage' and the Italian 'Paragon'.
Voyage: A sweeping journey, often to far-off or exotic destinations, typically by sea.
Paragon: Deriving from the Italian word 'paragone', it stands for comparison. Harking back to the Italian Renaissance, it represents a discourse where one art form, be it architecture, sculpture, or painting, is hailed supreme over the rest. Leonardo da Vinci's insights on painting highlight the intricacies of the craft and the preeminence of vision. Concurrently, Giorgio Vasari vouched for drawing as the cornerstone of all arts, placing it on the highest pedestal.
“I hand-select captivating, innovative, and captivating creations from both reputable design-centric brands and budding talents. My goal is to provide readers with a multifaceted insight into my personal preferences in modern travel and experiences.
