The concierge looks like an Armani model, the lift is more reminiscent of a limousine, and the reception desk is a glowing glass slab suspended below a black-mirrored ceiling. Welcome to 15 on Orange Hotel……Sources design approach to this Luxury Design Hotel was to offer the chic luxury and services of a traditional 5* hotel but infuse it with a modern design approach and cerebral moments that make the high-end hotel experience suddenly New. The goal was to deliver an iconic luxury hotel that would have a now factor but still stand the test of time. Classic furniture design styles have been re-interpreted in a very modern aesthetic that retains the opulence of certain eras but adds an unexpected edge to the style: the frames of classic carved wingback chairs in the bar area are charred with a blowtorch and upholstered in a high-gloss metallic graphite vinyl. Jeremy Stewart, Creative and Project Director of Source, compares this to putting Audrey Hepburn in a vinyl cat-suit!
