Architects (GNA), an international architecture firm with studios in New York and Tel Aviv, today announced that it has been
commissioned to design the historic renovation and conversion of the Post Palais
Hotel in Berlin. A project spanning over two centuries,
the Post Palais Hotel originally served as a post office and will now be
adaptively re-used as a modern luxury hotel incorporating a historic façade. The
building is comprised of approximately 120,000 square feet.
As part of its
inclusive design concept for the six-story, early 20th Century
building, GNA will create a comprehensive interior design plan for the new
hotel, including the guest rooms and all public spaces such as the lobby,
restaurant, cigar bar, night club, ballroom facilities, wellness center, spa and
executive meeting facilities.
“We are excited
to be a part of this significant project and introduce a new standard of
contemporary design, along with a universe of hospitality amenities, which will
complement Berlin’s already thriving cultural and tourist communities,” said Gal
Nauer, chief designer and president of Gal Nauer Architects. “The open, inviting
spaces and unique design elements that we have incorporated into this project
will transform the Post Palais Hotel into a magnificent new
city destination reflecting the cosmopolitan, vibrant culture of
Berlin.”
GNA’s interior
design for the hotel goes well beyond conventional hotel room design, which
often resembles a box-shaped envelope. Each space will be inviting to guests and
enhanced by high ceilings and large windows, with the goal to create an “open
space feel” combined with interiors that feature natural design elements and a
reference to the Orient.
“The overall
hotel design incorporates destination points for visitors and guests that
reflect a world of experiences from health and fitness to entertainment and
business activities,” added Ms. Nauer.
The project is
expected to be completed by year-end 2012.
