A fairytale landscape and magical furnishings at the Hotel Astor.

A building perched on a cliff with an extraordinary view of Lake Garda. A reading/TV room with a large window framing a fairytale landscape. During a visit, the owner guided me through the hotel's floors nestled into the rock to this small room with a sweeping view, and asked for a solution to renovate the armchairs and sofas.

I immediately noticed a predominance of tones beyond the glass: dark green and iridescent blue. I imagined the pattern and the fabric. I imagined the ideal arrangement to enhance the view. We developed the idea in a couple of days, and the design was there, clear and limpid like the lake water above the meeting room table: sofas (BS594L) and Chicago armchairs (BS594P), upholstered in alternating iridescent colors, petrol green and creamy white.

Plays of colors and sparkling fabrics.

We then played with solid colors on the seats and printed fabrics on the cushions. The speed with which this setup came together certainly served as a counterpoint when it came time to actually put it together. 

No elevator or freight elevator… a great logistical adventure that still haunts the stories of coffee breaks in the company corridors months after delivery!
