The prestigious Italian fashion house, Missoni, released their first hotel in Edinburgh (and the world) in 2009. Commissioned to Allan Murray Architects (Architecture) and Matteo Thun (Interior Design) and Graven Images, it was built on Edinburgh's Old Town after demolishing a 1960s office building. Missoni's use of rythm and pattern in their fabrics is mirrored not only in the complex itself, but also on the interior and graphic areas of the hotel, all woven into the urban fabric (Murray). Vertical lines, curvy façade, chic combinations, bright color schemes, bold patterns, dramatic lightning,...the zig and the zags are all rolled into one 6-story fairytale!
a five star wonder
