With the introduction of a small Andorra guesthouse, Danish design brand Vipp has expanded its list of high-end hotel concepts for the design-conscious. Like the Chimney House, Pencil Case, and the Vipp shelter, this hotel concept carries a unique identity combined with a carefully curated aesthetic including the V1 kitchen and the Vipp furniture collection.
A small Andorra guesthouse originally built in the 1950s
The lodge-style setting is a collaboration between Vipp and the design consultancy Bau Studio. The characteristic features of this small 1950s building are contrasted by the serene Scandinavian design aesthetic brought forth by the Vipp collection.
The ground floor of this two-story duplex features an open kitchen with a dining and living room including a fireplace. The rich and warm color palette of the living room matches perfectly with the V1 kitchen in black metal combined with white porcelain tiles on the wall.
A second floor with a bedroom and a large bathroom with a freestanding bathtub
When going up the custom metal staircase, you arrive in the bedroom combined with a large bathroom. The simple bedroom design is placed underneath the original wood beams of the building and through those porthole windows, you can catch a glimpse of the Pyrenees.
At the top of the staircase, you can find a small home office space, from which you can look down onto the living room and kitchen.
The freestanding tub and open shower add a modern yet classic look and feel to the cement-covered bathroom space and the contrast between the white tub and the white bathroom module against the black tiles is very powerful.
The cement shower includes a built-in bench inside a niche where towels and bathroom products can be stored within reach. The black fixtures stand out powerfully against the concrete shower wall treatment.
While the rest of the bathroom has a modern appearance, the white freestanding tub adds a bit of classic touch to the setting with black tiles in the wall. The white tub is complemented by a white wall-mounted faucet to finish off the look.
