THE WORLD OF HOSPITALITY 5 STUDIO PROOF The North facing “City Rooms” are punctuated with deep yellows and mustard tones, whilst the “Park Rooms” are infused with muted sages and pastel greens. On the 18th top floor, which accommodates the largest suites, the palette becomes richer and connects with materials used in the new public spaces. American walnut replaces the pale oak and rooms are dressed in deep teals, petrol blues and suave cognac tans. CLASSIC ROOMS Without changing the 21sqm footprint of the classic rooms, Studio Proof’s redesign transforms them through masterful planning and sophisticated furnishing choices into rooms full of light and a sense of space. In many of the rooms, an in-built lime-washed oak desk extends across half the width of the window-lined wall, its frame dropping down to form a daybed that stretches to the other side of the room, making full use of this otherwise dead space. Upholstered in plush Fox Linton mohair velvet, the daybed invites city weary occupants to lounge amongst lush Dedar and Zimmer & Rohde fabric covered cushions and enjoy the view. Wooden panelling continues from here, encircling the room to create visual continuity, blending with console tables made from the same oak and finished with smart bronze detailing.
