No1 Art Hotel Zurich
Brief
Jess Lyon Interior was commissioned to transform a five-story industrial space on the shores of Lake Zurich into a one-of-a-kind art boutique hotel. Each room was individually designed, blending the building’s raw industrial character with carefully curated art and bespoke furnishings. The concept focused on creating unique, immersive experiences for guests, with no two rooms alike, while maintaining a cohesive aesthetic throughout the hotel. The result was a sophisticated, avant-garde destination that celebrated creativity, individuality, and the stunning backdrop of Lake Zurich.

Challenge
A major challenge in designing the art boutique hotel in Zurich was creating unique, individualized themes for each room—ranging from the understated elegance of Coco Chanel to the vibrant energy of Mozambique and Morocco—while maintaining a cohesive aesthetic throughout the hotel. The design required a delicate balance of variety and unity, achieved through the careful curation of furniture, art, and decor. Thoughtful color choices and shared design elements subtly tied the diverse themes together, ensuring the hotel felt harmonious despite its eclectic influences. This approach allowed each room to stand out as a unique experience while contributing to the overall identity of the space.
Concept
The concept for this boutique hotel is rooted in the celebration of individuality, creativity, and art as the foundation of its design. Drawing inspiration from carefully selected artwork, each room serves as a distinct expression of style, culture, and emotion, offering guests a one-of-a-kind experience. The overarching vision is to create an art boutique hotel that stands out in the world of design and hospitality, where each space not only provides comfort but also tells a story. This approach to interior design combines vibrant energy, exquisite craftsmanship, and playful originality, delivering an immersive and unforgettable stay for every guest.
Implementation
This art boutique hotel concept redefines the traditional hotel experience by turning each room into a unique canvas of design and storytelling. Drawing inspiration from artwork as the foundation, the interiors celebrate the vibrancy, creativity, and individuality that define boutique excellence. The result is a standout property that resonates with guests, offering not just a place to stay but a truly memorable journey through art and design. This concept elevates the hotel into a work of art itself, ensuring it becomes a global destination for those seeking luxury, inspiration, and one-of-a-kind experiences.
