WHITE Hotel & 在亚速尔群岛俯瞰大海与火山
When WHITE Hotel opened on the southern coast of São Miguel Island in the Azores in 2017, it stood out not only for its monochrome colour scheme, but also for its tailor-made hospitality - the nine suites and one villa boutique hotel has become known as a pioneer of luxury tourism in the archipelago.
当WHITE Hotel于2017年在亚速尔群岛的圣米格尔岛南部海岸开业时,它不仅因其单色配色方案而脱颖而出,而且还因其量身定制的接待服务而闻名——九间套房和一间别墅的精品酒店已被称为该群岛豪华旅游的先驱。
Not content to rest on its laurels, WHITE Hotel's hoteliers Catarina and João Reis decided last winter that it was time for a makeover.
WHITE Hotel不满足于安于现状,在去年冬天的时候,WHITE Hotel的酒店经营者Catarina和João Reis决定是时候对酒店进行改造了。
Daniela Franceschini, Spanish interior designer and creative director at Quiet Studios, drew inspiration from the WHITE Hotel's postcard location (the resort sits on top of a basalt cliff overlooking the sea) and infused the resort with the island's volcanic soul by complementing the original, all-white palette with shades of grey and black.
Quiet Studios的西班牙室内设计师兼创意总监Daniela Franceschini从WHITE Hotel的明信片位置中汲取灵感(度假村坐落在俯瞰大海的玄武岩悬崖顶),通过用灰色和黑色调补充原始的全白色调,为度假村注入岛上火山般的灵魂。
Catarina and João Reis discovered the ruins of an old manor house near the town of Lagoa on the southern coast of São Miguel on a hiking trip as part of a wine production site, and the house enjoys soothing tranquillity and breathtaking views of the sea.Catarina and João Reis are passionate about creating unique places, and two years ago their first project Santa Bárbara, the first eco-beach resort in the Azores, they decided to transform the old building into a unique boutique hotel, crucially without compromising its vernacular architecture.
Catarina和João Reis在一次徒步旅行中发现了圣米格尔南部海岸Lagoa镇附近的一座古老庄园的废墟,作为一个葡萄酒生产基地的一部分,这栋房子享有舒缓的宁静和壮丽的海景。Catarina和João Reis热衷于创造独特的地方,两年前他们的第一个项目Santa Bárbara是亚速尔群岛的第一个生态海滩度假村,他们决定将这座古老的建筑改造成一个独特的精品酒店,关键是不影响其乡土建筑。
Five years later, the WHITE Hotel has undergone a refurbishment that has deepened the hotel's sense of ambience, as Daniela Franceschini explains, ‘One of the most important things in a hotel like this is the sense of place’ and ‘guests want to feel like they are in the Azores’.
五年后,WHITE Hotel经过一次翻新,酒店的氛围感得到了加深,Daniela Franceschini解释说:“像这样的酒店,最重要的事情之一是地方的感觉”,“客人希望感觉他们在亚速尔群岛”。
