The hotel combines office and hotel under one roof – which was a challenge for the design.

After all, a hotel room serves to be a place to rest in, while an office requires adequate lighting as well as an atmosphere supporting productivity. A neutral, minimalist and also Finnish concept was the solution.

Even though the rooms are furnished in a contemporary style, the interplay between wooden furniture and cozy details remind of a Finnish summer house. Thanks to intelligent lighting and flexible furniture, the room remains ergonomic and functional.

The sinks by the Finnish brand Woodio are made of left-over aspen wood and are considered to be especially durable.
