The Timeless Guest Retreat

For this project in Cologne, we were tasked with designing a single guest bedroom that blends traditional design elements with a modern, youthful twist. Our goal was to create a space that feels timeless yet fresh, combining classic features with contemporary touches to make the room both inviting and stylish.

We began by selecting a warm, neutral color palette as the foundation for the room—rich, earthy tones that evoke a sense of comfort and relaxation. The traditional design was highlighted through classic furniture pieces with refined detailing, such as a beautifully crafted wooden bed frame and a vintage-inspired armchair.

The use of the classic chandelier, statement lamps and carefully chosen accent lighting, brings a sense of sophistication while enhancing the overall atmosphere. Subtle art pieces and decorative accessories tie the room together, adding personality without overwhelming the space.

This balanced fusion of old and new creates a welcoming, stylish guest bedroom that feels both familiar and fresh—perfect for visitors who appreciate tradition with a modern flair.
