Missoni Hotel Edinburgh
Edinburgh, United Kingdom
Interior design
An interior design project that has the Brand as a starting point. Missoni's fabric becomes a habitable space. Architecture as sartorial work? Fabric patterns are the identity of several functional areas. A textile vibration merges the visual and the tactile. An idea of hospitality is repeatable but also declinable accordingly to local habits and the location mood. And so do the colours: black, white and silver for Edinburgh, a business hotel, and saturated colours for Kuwait City, which is more leisure oriented.
