What are your design superpowers?

AO/JN

Years of experience and staying true to our design essence is a superpower and something we never compromise on. We are also very involved in production from start to finish making sure our projects turn out as close to the original vision as possible.

What is your favourite design hotel in the world?

AO/JN

There are so many amazing hotels but we really love smaller boutique hotels like Ett Hem in Stockholm or Hotel Chateau Voltaire in Paris. Santa Monica Proper Hotel and everything that Kelly Wearstler creates is amazing, Amangiri in Utah is truly special.

We love hotels that tell stories and that incorporate the nature making it a focal point of the architecture and design. Our studio works in similar ways when creating our designs

What is your favourite way to add “wow” to an interior?

AO/JN

Lighting and art is always a great way to incorporate style and personality. We also love adding a few custom pieces or furniture that don’t particularly ”fit” the space, they create tension and a pause.

Minimalist living room featuring soft furnishings, a textured rug, and a striking crystal chandelier.

Bright living space with a unique metallic chair, natural light, and neutral furnishings.

Elegant bathroom with marble surfaces, gold accents, and soft lighting.

Alex: Some old and new design books (Axel Vervoort, Vincent Van Duysen etc, table lamp, a handmade raku bowl from Kyoto, a senser from Apparatus, and old rusty chain-piece found on a field. Old and new memories, constantly changing along with mood and as life evolves.
