Top 10 Interior Interior Designers

For the past thirty years, Philippe Starck has been designing hotels all over the world, including the Royalton in New York and the luxury hotels Hôtel Meurice and the Royal Monceau. Heralding the phenomena of convergence and dematerialization, Philippe Starck aims straight for the heart, highlighting the essential, extracting the structural minimum of every object, in order to offer creations and propositions closest to Man and Nature, best adapted to the future. He believes that sincere, modern elegance comes from the multiplication of an object, as opposed to the ideology of limited editions, where premeditation on rarity leads to a selection through money rather than necessity.

Using clean lines, neutral tones and opulent touches, Kelly Hoppen transforms the interior design of any hotel in such a beautiful place that it suddenly becomes one’s private world, surrounded by the bluest of skies and the whitest of sands, such as The Murmuri in Barcelona. Whenever is possible, a good idea is to take profit from the outside surroundings, to let the sunshine in and make your personal room a true sanctuary, in which you can fully recharge and relax.

Marcel Wanders is worldwide renowned for the creation of multi-layered, sensory experiences that welcome guests with a true sense of place. With an extremely exquisite signature, his mission is to create an environment of love, of live life with passion and make our most exciting dreams come true. This vision holds the perfect formula to recreate an interior design that matches people’s ideals, life and dreams. His work excites, provokes, and polarises, but never fails to surprise for its ingenuity, daring and singular quest to uplift the human spirit, and entertain.

Los Angeles–based interior designer Kelly Wearstler has a bold, inventive sensibility that brought enchanting vitality and good energy to chic hotels, shops and residences throughout the country. And in spite of the designer’s eccentric interiors, her fiercely glamorous approach with high-octane patterns, gleaming metallic surfaces, and spirited colours make hotel ambiences truly sophisticated and with a high-level of comfort and cosiness. Kelly has been widely celebrated in the media for her visionary work, brought to life through her fearless use of vibrant colour, and unexpected textural juxtapositions. Don’t be afraid to be bold when decorating your interior design and imprint your strong personality while decorating your most sacred refuge.

Jean-Louis Deniot holds an effortless blend of traditional and modern with a touch of classic French elegance, always yielding a breathtaking outcome. The designer imprints in all his projects particular attention to details and his ability to create an artistic atmosphere in the spaces he designs. He has the ability to mix vintage pieces with modern elements, soft with strong, feminine and masculine, making the ambiances perfect for all type of luxury travelers or for anyone who appreciates staying at iconic places. This symbiosis of modern with vintage pieces is a very trendy way to bring hotel comfort to your own place.

If you look at Peter Marino‘s interior design projects in terms of hotels, you will see a true redefinition of modern luxury, emphasizing materiality, texture, scale, light and the constant dialogue between interior and exterior. The starting point for all Peter Marino‘s work that can be an inspiration for you is combining the interior design and architecture with the art. It is the ability to artfully juxtapose different styles and eras with such elegance that the ambiance becomes unforgettable for those who live in it or only pass by.

Born into a family of architects in Dublin, March 1955, young David Collins early seemed to show an interest in everything connected to light and design. Pursuing an architectural degree at the Bolton Street School of Architecture, Collins decided to change his path and, upon finishing his bachelor’s degree, he decided to proceed with his professional life by becoming an interior designer. From there, he decided to move to London, where he had the chance to redecorate a friend’s house. This project would become the early stage of the creation of his own firm, the David Collins Studio. This came to be in 1985 when the studio was mainly “specialising in small interior architectural jobs”. However, Collins and his partner, Iain Watson, quickly had to start innovating and changing their creative vision. This particular vision, nonetheless, was very clear to them: “projects that are a sophisticated counterpoint between aesthetics and rationale”.

Rockwell Group – David Rockwell (born 1956) is an American architect and designer. He is the founder and President of Rockwell Group, a 250-person award-winning, cross-disciplinary architecture and design practice based in New York City with satellite offices in Madrid and Shanghai. David grew up in the theater—his mother, a vaudeville dancer, and choreographer, often cast him in community repertory productions. But when he was 12, David’s family had a dramatic scene change, moving from Deal, New Jersey to Guadalajara, Mexico. There he discovered a whole new world of vibrant marketplaces, street life, and public spaces. After training in architecture at Syracuse University and the Architectural Association in London, David brought his passion for theater and artistic eye for the color and spectacle of Mexico to his profession.

Victoria Hagan is an award-winning designer whose work reflects the New American Classic — a modern sense of luxury that is fresh, restrained and iconic. Since founding her eponymous firm 25 years ago, Victoria Hagan has been celebrated for her intelligent integration of architecture and interior design. Based in New York City, Victoria’s 26-person firm works on luxury residences throughout the country, providing a full range of interior design and renovation services, all bearing her signature classic American style.

In addition, they provide construction services, as a design-build firm. They also operate their own custom cabinet shop and metal shop.

The design shop has a constant influx of brilliantly-styled furniture and objects, including one-of-a-kind pieces by emerging artists and coveted lines from distinguished designers. It is a little bit experimental yet a lot functional. If you’re looking for good interior design, Mint is the perfect store for you.

Crema Design, Cape Town

Cape Town is currently considered one of the world’s leading design cities and consequently, it’s the location of an impressive inventory of boutiques, including Crema Design. Located in Woodstock, the industrialist space is the work of Cape Town-based The Fold Architects, who renovated and redesigned the building to fit Crema’s needs and aesthetic. From the lighting fixtures to the handmade rugs, each and every piece of decor is special and an example of high-design (keep an eye out for work by Tom Dixon, Moooi, and Magis).

Casa Perfect, Los Angeles

A haven for collectable contemporary design, Casa Perfect can be found inside a mid-century West Hollywood Hills home, originally designed by Korean-American architect David Hyun in 1957.

The middle of the store is filled by a giant wooden ramp and it also has platforms that drop down to create a stage. Shoppers can walk down the stairs next to the ramp and enter a maze-like set of rooms filled with merchandise and plush green velvet couches. A space age inspired round, glass elevator is located in the front of the store. Wall panels containing huge art prints are often updated to reflect the current season’s collection.
