View into the blue

Open spaces allow the gaze to wander over the splendid sea and the blue accessoires always lead back to the place of relaxation.

Attention to detail

The own creation of the rayskin pattern is not even used for the wallpapers but also for the tableware.

Cultivation of the space in between

This is an open room concept. That means flowing spatial structures and minimum separation. The room is characterized by visual references to the different room zones and to the outside landscape.

The main concept is an interpretation of the natural conditions of the island. The nature is characterized by high contrasts because of the strong play of light and shadows. This is adapted in the rooms by textures and structures to unite the inside and the outside.

Genius Loci

The genius loci is adapted by the own creation of wallpapers in rayskin pattern or in the gradient at the walls that match the sky and sea.

Black and White Prelude

The entry of the guest suites features a strong black and white graphic that covers the whole surface of the wall.

Ceiling with Scales

The fitness area with white parquet, silver bar alcove and blue raffia wallpaper looks cool but still homely. The vaulted, light silver scale structure of the ceiling complements the rather cool color mood.

Opulent Office

Lush structures and graphics determine the impressive space of the private office. Shades of saffron yellow over sandgold and a gray background give the room a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Airspace as Space of Light

In the air space above the passage to the terrace on the first floor, six lights by Tom Dixon float like celestial bodies under a tinted mirror.

Noir Saint Laurent

The natural stone basins in the guest bathrooms are made of Noir Saint Laurent, a natural stone that is particularly decorative thanks to its strong contrasts between black, gold and soft gray.

Living Art:

The metallic bench in the large dressing room is reminiscent of a living mythical creature with steel scales and flowing metal skin.
