Sebastian + Barquet
Modernist furniture is making a comeback in Mayfair - and we're not talking the Ikea sales. Sebastian + Barquet opened on Bruton Place with their show 'New Hope', bringing classic design pieces from the era of Arne Jacobsen back to the fore. Since the great hopes of finance have disappointed us, the new hope of old design may well do instead.

Q
What changes are going on in trusts law? What is the new ‘perpetuity period’?
A
The Perpetuities and Accumulations Act 2009 (the ‘Act’) will come into force on 6 April 2010. This heralds a change to an historically important aspect of UK trust law, as, for wills and trusts executed after 5 April 2010, the length of time that assets can be tied up in trust (the ‘perpetuity period’) will increase from 80 years to 125 years.
