The renovation of the hotel was done with respect to the landscape and the existing buildings. Clarity and simplicity were among the main targets. The aim of the study was to upgrade the rooms, create privacy and integrate aquatic elements into them. The purpose of the design was to preserve the traditional Mykonian architecture enriched with modern and industrial design in details such as in showers, wherever possible they were incorporated into the rooms from where the visitor can have unobstructed views of the sea. Private pools or outdoor heated Jacuzzis have been added to the rooms, which are oriented towards the sea. Where this was not feasible, private gardens have been created that once again incorporated some form of aquatic element and were enriched with Mediterranean plants such as olives, rosemary, lavender, reeds, cacti and prickly pear trees.

Curia Palace Hotel
EUROPE
Lisbon - PORTUGAL There is always a special magic about staying at one of the last grand Art Nouveau buildings in Europe. In the 1920s, this was a splendid new hotel. It was quite the most stylish place when it first welcomed guests through its doors. It was set in magnificent gardens, in an elegant spa town located north of Coimbra, one to which high-society people came to take the so-called healing waters. Luckily, the Curia Palace is as lovely now as it was back then. Time seems to have stopped here. The atmosphere is much as it used to be. Although it has been restored, you can see what it must have been like almost a century ago. Wisely, little has been changed; it has been kept looking much as it did in the old days. New comforts have been added, but all the chic of that golden era remains. This stately old hotel offers unique levels of personal service, impressive original public areas of its glamorous times, Époque styled rooms with décor masterfully blending the old with the new, an historic restaurant serving epicurean cuisine and fine local wines, an invigorating spa with indoor pool, massage service, sauna, steam and Japanese bath, as well as a glorious 1934 outside olympic size Art Déco pool.

Plans and sketches were drawn up, discarded and started all over again - until exactly the right formula was found. With enthusiasm for detail, new life was breathed into the massive walls and the old and the new combined in a wonderful way. From now on, this colossal building with its massive windows and doors will always be open to guests.
