In quite a similar way, our pieces of furniture all by themselves \nalready tell a story, convey an emotion, and show a personality that makes them unique and distinct \nfrom the others. But it is when they get involved in a broader context when they finally make sense. \nIt might be drastically new and different, yet respectful towards their essence. \nThis context is no other than the specific decorative project. It can be a hotel lobby or its \nbedrooms, the terrace of a restaurant, a cocktail bar up in the rooftop of a historic building, and \neven an exhibition or a marketing action. In these environments, pieces are recoded according to \nthe language of each architect or interior designer and what is more, they stop being just design \nobjects to become daily objects. In the end that was the reason why they were devised in the first \nplace, when they were simply the germ of an idea within their creator’s mind. \nWe have always believed that our furniture must accomplish not just a utilitarian function, which \nis obvious yet no less prosaic, but also an aesthetic function, which is something fundamental \nin the era of image, as it proves our determined bid to produce attractive designs, elegant and \ncontemporary. Our pieces attend to their purpose, but without giving up on beauty and above \nall, they are timeless, because of their resistance and because they do not follow the dictates of \nephemeral trends. \nThis double conception together with our two production lines (outdoor and indoor) makes \nthem most suitable to meet the demand of hospitality industry, which at the moment is quickly \nexpanding worldwide. Now it is easier to find our furniture in hotels and restaurants all over the \nworld, integrated into projects led by important architecture firms and interior design studios. \nAnd this makes us feel a bit stronger and of course, very proud. \nUp to the point that we were really eager to show them and so we decided to make a fine \nselection of the most important projects over the past few years and gather them in a catalogue \nbreathing a somewhat different air than our classic product catalogues. Because our sensations \nare also different and we feel so much happy and excited when someone emails the picture of \na new project featuring our pieces. Each and every one of these projects bolsters our conviction \nthat we are making things right and this is how we must keep working. \nChoosing Settings as the catalogue title was not a mere coincidence. We wanted to turn again \nto theatre argot, as we did when it occurred to us to compose a series of fictional, dramatised \nscenes, where our iconic pieces played the main role. We let our imagination fly. This time, however, \nsettings are real, tangible and long-lasting. Ladies and gentlemen, the curtain rises.\n",2,{"image":22,"text":23,"number":24},"\u002Fmedia\u002Fimages\u002F6e\u002F8540ed81f12bef7761116927c53e08-28fdb3f15e.3.png","H\nO\nA\n!\nL\nLa palabra es una unidad de significado en sí misma, pero alcanza su plenitud expresiva en \nconstrucciones gramaticales más amplias. De la misma manera, nuestras piezas de mobiliario, por \nsí solas, ya transmiten una historia, una determinada emoción, poseen un carácter que las hace \núnicas y distintas de las demás. Pero es cuando se imbrican en un contexto mayor cuando realmente \nse cargan de un sentido que, sin despojarlas de su esencia, resulta radicalmente nuevo y distinto. \nEste contexto no es otro que el proyecto decorativo concreto. Un proyecto que puede ser \nel lobby o las habitaciones de un hotel, la terraza de un restaurante, un cóctel bar en la azotea \nde un edificio histórico o por qué no, una exposición o una acción de marca. En estos entornos, \nlas piezas se recodifican según el lenguaje del arquitecto o interiorista responsable y lo que es \nmás importante, dejan de ser únicamente objetos de diseño para convertirse en objetos de uso \ncotidiano que, a fin de cuentas, es para lo que fueron concebidas cuando no eran más que un \nembrión en la mente de su creador. \nSiempre hemos creído que nuestro mobiliario debe cumplir no sólo una función utilitaria, \nobvia aunque no por ello menos prosaica, sino también una función estética, fundamental en la \nera de la imagen, y así lo demuestra nuestra apuesta decidida por un diseño atractivo, elegante \ny contemporáneo. Nuestros muebles responden a su finalidad, pero no renuncian a la belleza y \nsobre todo, son atemporales, por su resistencia y porque no están sometidos a los dictados de \nlas modas efímeras. \nUna doble concepción, que unida a la doble línea de producción (exterior e interior), los hace \nidóneos para cubrir la demanda de un sector contract en expansión a nivel global. Cada vez más \nes posible encontrar nuestras piezas en instalaciones hoteleras y restaurantes de todo el mundo, \nintegradas en proyectos dirigidos por importantes firmas de arquitectura y estudios de interiorismo. \nY eso nos lleva a sentirnos un poco más grandes y sin duda, muy orgullosos. \nTanto, que hemos querido hacer una pequeña selección con los proyectos más importantes de \nlos últimos años y agruparlos en un catálogo que también respira un aire algo diferente a nuestros \ncatálogos de producto. Porque nuestras sensaciones son también diferentes, y nos alegramos e \nilusionamos cuando nos llega la foto de una nueva instalación que cuenta con nuestros muebles. \nCada uno de estos proyectos nos reafirma en la convicción de que más de una cosa estaremos \nhaciendo bien y que así es como debemos seguir trabajando. \nEscoger Settings como título de este catálogo no fue fruto de la casualidad. Quisimos recurrir \nde nuevo a la jerga teatral, como hiciéramos cuando se nos ocurrió componer una serie de escenas \nficticias, dramatizadas, en las que nuestras piezas icónicas desempeñaban un papel protagonista. \nEntonces dejamos que volara la imaginación. Aquí, sin embargo, los escenarios son reales, tangibles \ny duraderos en el tiempo.

When the first sunrays \ncreep over the sea horizon and fall on the silvery glass \nskin which envelopes its svelte silhouette, they burst \ninto a myriad of iridescent sparkles that pour again \nover the undulant surface of the water, achieving the \nperfect architectural dematerialization. \nIn constant dialogue with its surrounding natural \nenvironment: thus it was conceived by its architect \nRicardo Bofill. But not just him; the team in charge \nof its interior design turned also to this same envi-\nronment: “Our inspiration came from the theme of \n‘sky and sea by day and night’. The W lounge benefits \nfrom an iconic view of these two elements, coming \ntogether on the edge of one of the most vibrant cities \nin the world”. \nAl final del paseo de la Barceloneta, al borde mismo \ndel mar, se yergue el majestuoso W Hotel, una colosal \nfigura con forma de vela de 99 metros de altura. \nCuando los primeros rayos del sol reptan sobre el \nhorizonte marino e inciden sobre la piel de vidrio \nplateado que recubre su esbelta silueta estallan en \nuna miríada de destellos irisados que se derraman \nsobre la superficie ondulante del agua, consiguiendo \nla desmaterialización arquitectónica perfecta.\nAsí, en diálogo constante con el entorno natural \ndonde se enclava, fue como lo concibió su arquitecto, \nRicardo Bofill, y a este mismo entorno se remitieron los \nresponsables de su diseño interior: “Nuestra inspiración \nsurgió a partir del tema del cielo y el mar de día y de \nnoche.

Thanks to the \ncutting-edge combination of colours and selected materials, the \nlounge mirrors the vibrant, bustling spirit of the cosmopolitan \ncity of Barcelona. \nBlue, pink, purple, orange and indigo spill all over the fin \nscreens on the walls replicating a sea bottom where the corals \ndream of octopuses, seahorses and ocean sunfishes. But not just \nthe colour palette helps create this sensation of deep sea; also the \norganic shapes of the furniture evoke the plasticity and gaiety of \nthe reef, from the transparent side tables which seem to float in \nthe water stream like jellyfishes to the lamps recalling organ pipe \ncorals and the carpets unfolding their colours like gorgonians.\nIn the middle of it all, Nautica swings stand out with their \nundulant rattan frame inspired by the reflections of sunlight on \nthe waves, sometimes resembling swaying weeds that move to \nthe rhythm of the tides. In the designers’ own words:  “It is an \ninvitation to have fun with its movement and its design”. This \npiece created by the Valencia-based studio MUT Design bursts \nwith plasticity in an endlessly flowing space, where materials, \ntextures and colours coexist in perfect symbiosis just like the \ninhabitants of the reef. \nDos elementos vivos que experimentan infinitas metamorfosis \ndependiendo del momento del día, tal y como quiso plasmar el \nestudio londinense United Design Architects en la zona lounge \ndel hotel. Tal como explican, “queríamos reflejar estos bellos \ncolores, naturales y cambiantes, y al mismo tiempo recuperar la \nrica historia marítima de Barcelona  y su reputación como ciudad \nsociable y festiva”. \nEl resultado es un diseño que trata de agudizar la capacidad \nsensorial de los huéspedes desde el mismo momento en que \ntraspasan el umbral de la recepción y durante toda su estancia \nen el  hotel.  Gracias  a  la  vanguardista  combinación  de  colores \ny  materiales  escogidos,  el  lounge consigue capturar el carácter \nvibrante y bullicioso de la Barcelona cosmopolita y abierta.  \nAzul,  rosa,  púrpura,  naranja  e  índigo  se  vierten  sobre  las  \npantallas  de  las  paredes  que reproducen un fondo marino \ndonde los corales sueñan pulpos, caballitos de mar y peces luna. \nNo sólo la paleta de color contribuye a crear esta sensación de \nprofundidad oceánica; también las formas orgánicas del mo-\nbiliario evocan la plasticidad y el colorido de un arrecife, desde \nlas mesitas  transparentes  que  parecen  flotar  en  la  corriente  \ncomo  medusas  a  las  lámparas  que recuerdan a corales tubu-\nlares o las alfombras que despliegan sus colores como gorgonias.\nEn medio de todo ello, destacan los columpios Nautica, con \nsu estructura de rattan ondulante que se inspira en el reflejo \ndel sol sobre las olas y que a ratos se asemeja también a algas \ncimbreantes que se agitan al ritmo de las mareas. En palabras de \nlos diseñadores: “Una invitación a divertirse con su movimiento \ny su diseño”.

Today, it is a very coveted kind \nof establishment and now the figure approaches the \nscore. The concept was born in Italy, in small country \nstates whose owners decided to lease the free rooms \nin order to make an extra income. \nNow, due to its mass appeal, the definition has \nbeen widened to encompass diverse offers. What \nthey all seem to share is that, progressively, design has \ngained ground to rusticity. This is the reason why many \nestablishments have staked their claim on the label \n“chic agritourism”, a ratchet up to the root concept with \nthe intention of attracting those inveterate urbanites \nthat seek reconciliation with the countryside but are \nreluctant or afraid of giving up the amenities they \nenjoy in the city. \nCa Na Xica\nCity \u002F country: Ibiza (Spain)\nYear: 2015\nProject design: Carla Espinosa\nCollection: Käbu, Senso, Nido & \nOut_Line\nPhotography: Fernando Alda\nHace diez años, podían contarse con los dedos de una \nmano, y sobraban tres, los agroturismos existentes \nen Ibiza. Hoy, se trata de un tipo de alojamiento muy \ncodiciado y la cifra ronda ya la veintena. El concepto \nde agroturismo se originó en Italia, en pequeñas \nfincas rústicas, cuyos dueños decidían alquilar las \nhabitaciones libres con el fin de obtener un ingreso \nextra. \nAhora, debido a la popularidad de la idea, la \ndefinición se ha ampliado para englobar propuestas \nmuy diversas. Lo que parece común a todas ellas es \nque, paulatinamente, el diseño ha ido ganando terreno \na lo rústico. Es por esto que muchos establecimientos \nhan hecho valer la etiqueta de “agroturismo chic”, una \nvuelta de tuerca al concepto primitivo que trata de \nganar a esos urbanitas empedernidos que buscan \nla reconciliación con la campiña, pero no se atreven, \no no quieren, renunciar a las comodidades de que \ndisfrutan en la ciudad. \nCA NA XICA\n",10,{"image":54,"text":55,"number":56},"\u002Fmedia\u002Fimages\u002F6e\u002F8540ed81f12bef7761116927c53e08-28fdb3f15e.11.png","",11,{"image":58,"text":59,"number":60},"\u002Fmedia\u002Fimages\u002F6e\u002F8540ed81f12bef7761116927c53e08-28fdb3f15e.12.png","23\nOne of the icons of this so-called “chic agritourism” is Ca Na Xica, \na boutique hotel located a few kilometres away from the village \nof Sant Miquel de Balansat, in the north-east end of the island. \nSurrounded by a rural landscape, packed with thousand-year-\nold olive trees contorting themselves like mannerist sculptures, \nCa Na Xica is haven where elegance, minimalist design and the \nunmistakeable Ibiza style converge. \nIt is an oasis inviting to get away with no remorse, perfect to \nswitch off and reboot both the body and the mind in holiday \nmode, as if time just stopped and remained encapsulated in an \nendless summer. Here the most basic pleasures blend in with \nthe most contemporary hedonism, local gastronomy becomes \nfused with the best of international cuisine, and luxury penetrates \nwithout disruption into the ancient nature of the scenery. \nThe hotel was opened in 2009 with just 6 bedrooms. The \nrenovation and expansion works were completed by the beginning \nof 2015 with fourteen premier suites, a restaurant, a spa and a \nlounge bar.

No hay \ncimentación, sino que todos los módulos se han anclado a la tierra \nmediante pilotis sobre los que se asienta la estructura”. \nAsimismo, la limpieza del enclave se realizó a través de \nuna poda selectiva a mano y toda la madera de las estructuras \nprocede de plantaciones controladas. Todo se hizo desde el \nrespeto más absoluto hacia el medio ambiente: “Contamos con \nuna superficie de 100 m2 de placas solares sobre la cubierta del \nrestaurante y la piscina del hotel es de agua salina, por lo que \nsu mantenimiento es 100% ecológico y no empleamos ningún \nproducto químico”, afirma Mayo.\nIn order to avoid disrupting the beautiful setting of the Guadalest \nvalley in Alicante, the modular units (suites, restaurant and \nreception) were not built there but in a factory. They were later \ncarried to the site where they were assembled. The person behind \nVIVOOD, Daniel Mayo, a young architect from Segovia, explains \nthat the most important thing is “once in the plot, we used a non-\naggressive system to prevent damaging the land. There are no \nfoundations; stilts anchor the cabins to the ground and support \ntheir structure”. \nAdditionally, the hillside was cleaned by means of a selective \nhand pruning and all the wood used in the structures comes \nfrom certified forests. Everything was made with all due respect \nto environment: “The 100 m2 area of the restaurant roof is covered \nwith solar wafers and the swimming pool is filled with salty water, \nso its maintenance is 100% ecological, and besides we don’t use \nchemicals”, Mayo states. \nVIVOOD integrates nature, \narchitecture and design. \n“Pie de foto”, Descripción de la \nfoto superior.\nVIVOOD\n",17,{"image":81,"text":82,"number":83},"\u002Fmedia\u002Fimages\u002F6e\u002F8540ed81f12bef7761116927c53e08-28fdb3f15e.18.png","35\nMeet and greet with Käbu sofa at \nthe reception. \nSuites rejoicing in the \nbreathtaking landscape. \nVIVOOD\n",18,{"image":85,"text":86,"number":87},"\u002Fmedia\u002Fimages\u002F6e\u002F8540ed81f12bef7761116927c53e08-28fdb3f15e.19.png","37\nLuxury suites are scattered over a vast area.

And so the main staircase with its forge banisters \nand wooden handrail coexists with the bold mustard strokes of \nsome differentiating elements, while a refined eclecticism pre-\nvails in the selection of furniture and local artists’ works, breaking \nthe continuum of the moderate colour-palette. Thus, Twins low \narmchair by MUT Design, with its electrifying turquoise 3D mesh, \ninvades the interior space and creates a vanishing point in the \nbedrooms, so soberly and geometrically arranged. \nUndoubtedly the first floor of the building is a must see. Guests \nwill enjoy there of the lightsome Tôpic restaurant-bar with a view \nto the Principal Theatre. The space is provided with large windows \nand floor tiles following once again a geometric black-and-white \npattern in contrast to the colourful seats among which we find \nFontal armchairs in natural finish and beautiful green upholstery. \nJust like the hotel, this rattan design by Oscar Tusquets brings \ntogether the best of tradition and modernity. \nFieles a la memoria del lugar, los interioristas Alfaro-Manrique \nreinterpretaron “el lenguaje clásico para ofrecer un hotel con-\ntemporáneo en el que conviven ambas realidades”. Para ello, \nrecurrieron a materiales nobles, como la madera o la cerámica \nque, más allá de su papel decorativo, también funciona, según \nEmili Manrique, “como elemento de identidad relacionado con \nla tradición valenciana”. Como si fuera un organismo vivo, articula \nlos espacios deslizándose bajo la cama, trepando al cabecero o \nreptando por el suelo de baños y terrazas. \nPero si hay una palabra que resuma el proyecto, esta es fusión. \nDe tradición y vanguardia, de diseño y artesanía. De este modo, \nla gran escalera principal con su barandilla de forja y pasamanos \nde madera convive con las atrevidas pinceladas de mostaza que \nlucen algunos elementos diferenciales, mientras que un refinado \neclecticismo prevalece en la selección del mobiliario y las obras \nde artistas locales, que rompen el continuum de la moderada \npaleta de color. Así, el sillón bajo Twins, de MUT Design, con su \nelectrizante malla azul turquesa, invade el espacio interior y crea \nun punto de fuga en las habitaciones, tan sobrias y geométricas.\nSin duda, es obligada la visita a la primera planta del edificio, \ndonde se halla el luminoso restaurante-bar Tôpic, con vistas al \nTeatro Principal.

Just like rattan, sushi is \nthe product of a long-standing tradition and although \nthe way it is cooked has changed over the centuries, it \nis still a handcrafted delicacy. Thus, the most famous \ndish in Japanese cuisine has more in common with \nrattan than it may seem at first sight.  \nPerhaps this is why they work so well together, \nas the restaurant Sushifresh has demonstrated since \nits opening in the Barcelona district of Les Corts at \nthe beginning of 2016. Sushifresh started as a small \n“Japanese fast good” online business. Customized sushi \nwas made upon ordering in the kitchen of a hotel in \nPedralbes rented by the hour, and then it was home-\ndelivered.\nPara hallar los orígenes del sushi hay que remontarse \na la Edad Media. Como el rattan, es producto de una \nlarga tradición y su método de elaboración, aunque \nha variado con el devenir de los siglos, responde a \ncriterios artesanales. Así, el plato más famoso de la \ngastronomía japonesa tiene en común con el rattan \nmucho más de lo que podría parecer a simple vista.   \nQuizá por eso funcionan tan bien en conjunto, \ncomo lo ha demostrado Sushifresh, un restaurante \nque abrió sus puertas en el barrio barcelonés de \nLes Corts a principios de 2016. Sushifresh arrancó \ncomo un pequeño negocio de “fast good japonés”, \nexclusivamente por Internet.

So I decided \nto join both elements and create Sushifresh”, Sara explains.   \nThe early success caused the opening of a small delivery; the \ngrowing demand led into a restaurant. The project was entrusted \nto the architect Carolina Amorós aka Partchwork: “I didn’t want an \noversaturation of decorative objects, but a rich content. I played \nwith grey upon different materials: oven-cured iron, enamelled \nporcelain scales, lacquered grilles, and fabrics... all with the aim \nof creating rhythm without affecting conceptual unity”\nLa idea tomó forma en la mente de Sara Serantes en Nueva \nZelanda.

Decidí unir estos dos factores y crear Sushifresh”, \nexplica Sara. \nEl éxito inicial desembocó en la apertura de un pequeño \ndelivery; la demanda creciente, en la de un restaurante. El \nproyecto se encargó a la arquitecta Carolina Amorós (Partchwork): \n“No quería una sobredecoración objetual, pero sí una riqueza \nde contenido.

As \ncolours tend to uniformity, it focuses on the different textures \nand repetitions that guide the dinner guests along the place, \nproducing a dynamic as well as welcoming atmosphere”. Along \nwith the colour, there are other details such as the Japanese style \nlamps whose lighter tonalities contrast with the rest of the decor.  \nAnother important feature is symmetry, present both in struc-\ntural and decorative components. This symmetry is replicated by \nthe huge mirrors covering the walls, giving the impression that \nobjects and space are multiplied and expanded beyond the phy-\nsical borders of the restaurant in a labyrinth ad infinitum. There \nis one more element grabbing attention: the enamelled ceramic \ntiles shaped as scales and finished in graduated grey shading \nsimulating the iridescent shine of fish skin. \nAn exceptional environment for the Fontal rattan chairs by \nOscar Tusquets. “My client wanted chairs with a backrest”, Carolina \ntells, “but opaque backrests pack spaces too tight, especially if \nthey are not big. I decided to go to Sit Down where they showed \nme the Fontal collection. I got really impressed, it was exactly \nwhat I was looking for: a natural material, in a light colour, with \na backrest so subtle that it was almost imperceptible and rattan \nwicker, which I had already used to wrap the columns, the front \npart of the bar or the door portholes”. \nThe oriental connotations of rattan (it is native to Asia) and its \ntraditional value ended up convincing her. “The chair has a very \nJapanese flavour; it reminds me of the Cesta lamp by Miguel Milá. \nIt was love at first sight. And to my surprise, my client loved it just \nas much. The chairs are ‘ the icing on the cake’  of a project that \nwas accomplished through dedication, hope and loads of enthu-\nsiasm”, Carolina concludes. Best ingredients for the perfect recipe. \nEl proyecto, en palabras de Carolina, “mezcla la simplicidad de \nla cultura japonesa con la complejidad decorativa de la cultu-\nra occidental. De colores uniformes, focaliza la importancia en \ndiferentes texturas y repeticiones que te acompañan a lo largo \ndel espacio, creando un ambiente dinámico y muy acogedor”. \nAl color, se suman otros detalles como las lámparas de estilo \njaponés, de tonalidades más claras para que contrastaran con el \nresto de la decoración. \nOtro rasgo fundamental es la simetría, presente tanto en los \nelementos estructurales como en los decorativos. Una simetría \nreplicada por los grandes espejos que cubren las paredes, dando \nla impresión de que los objetos y el espacio se multiplican y ex-\npanden en un laberinto ad infinitum más allá de los límites físicos \ndel local. Llaman la atención las baldosas cerámicas en forma de \nescamas, en tonos grises degradados y acabado esmaltado para \nreproducir los brillos irisados de la piel del pescado.\nUn entorno excepcional para las sillas de rattan Fontal, de \nOscar Tusquets. “Mi clienta quería sillas con respaldo”, relata Caro-\nlina, “pero los respaldos opacos tupen mucho los espacios, sobre \ntodo si son pequeños.

But there were also international \nnames like Wow Studio, Dirk Van der Kooij or Tom Dixon and \ncertain original touches which are impossible to overlook such \nas the rolling pins used as door handles or the fridges covered \nwith the remainders of pallets. Even the silverware and aprons \nbelong to designer labels.\nThey spare no expense because “we wanted to guarantee the \npresence of our brand and make people overcome the fear of all \nthat labelled as organic”. This is the reason why they created a light-\nfilled space, warm and pleasant, with plentiful of handicrafts close \nat hand and oozing design left, right and centre. Taste buds and \nsmell are not the only senses stimulated in here. The space also \ntries to activate aesthetic pleasure and ecological awareness with \nthe aim of communicating principles as important as sustainability \nor recycling.
