Gregorius Chapel Netherland
Gregorius Chapel
Project/Location: Gregorius Chapel, Utrecht/Netherlands
Interior designer: Zecc Architecten
Collection: Axor Starck X
Photos: Cornbread Works
When a chapel is converted into a residential accomodation usually little remains of the original atmosphere. However, the architect bureau Zecc managed to integrate both the old church elements of the Gregorius Chapel in the Dutch city of Utrecht, and a minimalistic interieur.
The chapel, built in 1922, was previously part of a cloister complex in the old city district of Utrecht. The architects' ambition was to retain the spacious feeling of the chapel as far as possible. The old lead windows were left in their original state, as was the masonry with angels, and even the organ.
To obtain a contrast to the white of the church, the interior designers kept the bedroom and bathroom in dark tones. They also chose the designer collection Axor Starck X, with its sculptural and yet uncompromising straightforward lines, as it matches the setting perfectly.

Project/Location: Emirates Palace, Abu Dhabi/United Arab Emirates
Architect: Wimberly Allison Tong and Goo (WATG)
Interior designer: P49 Designs
Owner: Kempinski Hotel and Resorts
Completion: 2005
Collection: Axor Terrano
The Emirates Palace, which is managed by the Kempinski Group is one of the largest luxury hotels in the world. 302 rooms and 92 suites are part of the 5 star complex, as is the Palace Conference Centre, equipped with the latest technology, a ballroom for 2400 guests, and 40 conference rooms including a media and business centre. Landscaped gardens covering 85 hectares, a specially created private beach and a yacht harbour complete the luxurious surroundings.
Traditional Arab elements can be found in the architecture of the building: a large dome, 42 meters in diameter, spans the lobby, with a further 114 domes spread over the entire building. For the interior too, the planners focused on Arab splendour using gold leaf gilding and marble. The oriental, rounded style is matched perfectly by the bathroom fittings of the Axor Terrano collection.

In Son Font on the island of Mallorca, the Tomschy family refurbished a nearly completely decayed finca into a luxurious dream house. The blue illuminated pool in the grounds of the seven hectare large property is a definite highlight, as is the exclusive light concept in the interior of the house.
Preferring a generous bathroom, the owners joined two rooms together. Elegant Mares stone from the local quarry is used here and in the guest bathroom. The owners selected bathroom fittings from the Axor Citterio collection to go with the puristic-traditional mixed interior and the no-frills tiles. Refreshment is promised by the Hansgrohe Raindance Air overhead and hand showers.

The new luxury hotel enjoys an ideal location, directly next to the sea and in the historic centre of the Baltic spa resort Binz, one of the most well known holiday destinations on Rügen. The island is not only famous for its unique chalk cliffs and the unspoilt environment, but especially for its 19th century architecture in the fin-de-siècle style. Small wooden villas with verandas, bay windows, ornaments and turrets are typical features of the island’s towns. And the Strandpromenade on the seafront in Binz is no different. All the greater therefore is the contrast provided by the modern lifestyle hotel “CERÊS am Meer”. The clear and superlative design combined with the supreme comfort lends the hotel a stylish character and create a place of contemplation.
