The interior design for the new location at Riemergasse plays with contrasts: raw and pure in structure, warm in tone. Glass meets brick, selected, genuine materials meet clean lines. Respect for existing structures as a design guideline. Cu there!

Cu at the bar …

The bar at Hotel Entners am See was turned into a welcoming place where people can socialise at any time of day – a perfect spot for enjoying the region’s best breakfast cappuccino or exclusive tea blends in the afternoon. And in the evening, there is nothing like an aperitif or sundowner in the newly designed lounge while admiring the spectacular view of the lake and the surrounding Karwendel mountains …

Authentic intimacy.

Authentic intimacy.

For the spa area at Palais Mailberger Hof free-standing elements were carefully chosen with the aim of leaving the vaulted ceiling fully visible and free from visual obstructions. The sauna box separates the showers from the relaxation zone, with a central free-standing drinking station placed in between. All of these features have soft, rounded edges to complement the vaulted ceiling. The soft, customisable lighting creates a soothing and intimate atmosphere, embodying the concept of “authentic intimacy”.

We can’t wait to get started on this ambitious project!

Es hat gefunkt …

Big changes are coming to Argentinierstrasse this year! With the building permit and the approval from the Federal Monuments Office secured, work at the Funkhaus can finally begin. Our team is raring to go, with the path clear for the planned timber-hybrid building. And for anyone looking for a home, there are still a few flats available both in the new building and in the existing one … (https://funkhaus.living/)...

Sweet treats.

Sweet treats.

The interior at confectionery Oberlaa complements the subtle colours of its sweet treats like the popular LaaKronen, tartelettes and eclairs. The pastel colour scheme at the townhouse on Neuer Markt in the bright, open rooms creates an atmosphere that is both refreshing and warm. In the staircase area the colour is concentrated into a vibrant coral tone.
