Costinești, Romania
Commercial - Hotel
This project transforms a simple Guesthouse into an iconic destination for the young target and Costinești festival-goers. The goal is not just to offer a bed, but a visual ("Instagrammable") experience that starts from the lobby and evolves as you ascend the building.
THE "VERTICAL JOURNEY" STRATEGY To give character to every space, we divided the building into three distinct chromatic themes, creating an ascending path:
Ground Floor - INDUSTRIAL ENERGY: Inspired by urban concrete and solar energy. Raw finishes, Neon Orange details, and minimal white furniture for a fresh and durable look.
First Floor - URBAN JUNGLE: A relaxation oasis for "Chill-out". Light woods (Oak), Acid Green accents, and botanical textures to regenerate.
Second Floor - TECH NIGHTLIFE: Inspired by nightlife and electronic music. Dark woods, sharp geometries, and Electric Blue LED lighting for an intimate and sophisticated atmosphere.
SMART FUNCTIONALITY & CUSTOM FURNITURE Every room has been optimized to maximize the (often limited) space. We designed two fundamental custom pieces:
- The "Smart Column": A multifunctional unit integrating a wardrobe, a technical compartment for the minibar (hidden yet ventilated), a built-in safe, and a colored open niche for the kettle.
- The "Wall-to-Wall" Headboard: A paneling system that unifies nightstands and luggage racks, integrating indirect LED lighting which, together with the corridor lights, defines the mood without glare.
BUDGET & FEASIBILITY The design uses an "IKEA HACK" strategy: standardized economic bases elevated by custom details.
