INSPIRATION FROM AROUND THE WORLD FOR AN AESTHETIC AND MEANINGFUL LIFESTYLE
Piece by piece, interior designer Pascale Lauber and co-owner Ulrike Bauschke have carefully renovated and modernized this historic palazzo. A particularly striking contrast to the ancient walls is found in the steel-framed windows and doors, reminiscent of diamonds. Unique antique pieces and custom-made furnishings from various countries and eras come together in a truly magical way. The sofas and bed headboards come from South Africa, a fire bowl from the South African bush has been transformed into a bathtub. An old olive press serves as a communal table, and an impressive chandelier, designed by Pascale Lauber herself, hangs from the bar’s ceiling.

This former 19th-century estate is located away from the everyday hustle and bustle, overlooking the bay of Praia da Luz. It has been completely restored, expanded and transformed into a small 5-star design hotel with great attention to detail [...]
Yes, the view of St Stephen's Cathedral from up here is breathtaking. The view inside the penthouse flat is no less heavenly: the Haute—Étage designed by Mezza—Maiso is a perfect example of what the interdisciplinary office of Verena Wohlkönig and Jürgen Hamberger understands by interior design. Not just the design of a living space, but the realisation of a holistic narrative. In other words, a curated total work of art that is realised at the highest level from the first draft to the last fragrance note.
Nobility obliges. But so is the name. In the case of London's new The BoTree Hotel, the Bodhi tree, under which Buddha is said to have attained enlightenment, was the inspiration. Concrete Amsterdam created an appealing interior design for the five-star hotel.

The Milan-based architectural studio Vudafieri-Saverino Partners designs places that make people “feel good”. Tiziano Vudafieri and Claudio Saverino talked to THE Stylemate about how to transform a brand into an interior and why food may even taste better in a nice restaurant ...
Mezza—Maiso excels at building bridges between disciplines. This is demonstrated by the team led by Verena Wohlkönig and Jürgen Hamberger in their interior design projects as well as in the curation of their collectibles. Their approach goes far beyond mere design—they create connections between design, art, architecture, and curatorial concepts. A prime example is their staging of the limited edition Gropius Lounge Chair: a photo series that blurs the line between art and design.
Nestled in the prestigious 16th arrondissement of Paris, the Beauséjour project redefines the aesthetic of traditional medical spaces. This project by Atelier Opale – the interior design studio founded by Alexandra Bouthier and Alice Lefebvre in 2019 – embodies their signature approach: meticulous attention to detail, a masterful interplay of materials, and an ever-present quest for the perfect light. The outcome is a renovation that exudes timeless elegance.
