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.
Mindfulness: no, it’s not just a word for grown-ups. Children can be mindful, too. They might even be better at it than us adults. At the Mia Alpina in the Zillertal, young and old can experience moments that make it easy to stay in the moment: the avid observation of a squirrel as it leaps from tree to tree. The exuberant joy before going down a water slide. The careful stroking of a fluffy rabbit. Or the pleasure of cuddling up to mum or dad to read a book. And from December, there will be even more.
The Czech studios třiarchitekti and ORA have transformed an old vaulted cellar into a stylish boutique: The Prague Gentlemen Store offers men's fashion and extravagant interior design.
The new Etro Home Interiors collection combines the rediscovery of the 60s and 70s with the exploration of contemporary style codes. The clean lines of the furnishings contrast with the brand’s characteristic maximalism and eclecticism, evident in the mix and match of eras and styles, as well as in the use of colour and fabrics, central themes of the Etro style.
‘We slept like on clouds’, “The room was so cosy that we didn't want to leave it”, “I need a sofa like that for my home”: some reviews not only make hoteliers happy, but also hotel furnishers. After all, the right furniture can make a significant contribution to the holiday experience.
