Hotel Melià Milano | Design VGA
ALPI wood enriches the spacious, renovated foyer of Hotel Meliá, whose new interior was designed by VVGA Architects from Milan.
The designers chose ALPI Xilo 2.0 Walnut Striped to cover the walls, columns and impressive slatted balustrade that lines the central stair, and edges the mezzanine overlooking the foyer.
ALPI Xilo 2.0 Walnut Striped, created in collaboration with Piero Lissoni, reproduces the rich, warm tones of American black walnut. Its softened veining and subtle nuances give the wood an elegant, contemporary feel.
The renewal of the foyer allows the hotel's cosmopolitan clientele to use the space in different ways. Areas are divided by architectural elements instead of walls. To visually fuse outdoor and indoor spaces, the designers used natural materials and added a large number of plants, which gives colour and creates the atmosphere of a natural oasis.
