The concept of “The Weekend” hotel builds on that special feeling we all experience during the weekend. For everyone, the weekend is connected with feelings of relaxation, joy and active get-togethers with friends and family. Following the central philosophy of The Weekend, the emphasis of the interior design was placed on three central topics: the connection to nature, the factor of time, and “The Weekend Feeling”.
As a result, the design of the interior space incorporates natural elements such as stone or various types of wood and plants consistently throughout, blurring the appearance of the interior and exterior spaces with each other. Graphic designs such as wallpapered walls in the rooms or the hotel’s control system also draw on floral and natural elements.
By integrating plant walls in the hotel, for one thing, the design brings nature inside the hotel, and for another, it conveys an unconscious, vague feeling of time due to the growth and thus the change observed in the plants. In The Weekend, a sensation of ease prevails and the furnishings provide a feeling of comfort and coziness, wrapped in the protection of the weekend in the heart of the big city.
