STUDIO MHNA
THE WORLD OF HOSPITALITY 15
Resolutely inscribed in modernity, Studio
MHNA’s design aims to offer its guests an
immersive, rich atmosphere uniting the
different facets of the Astor family identity.
Studio MHNA have transformed the lobby
into a reception and VIP lounge. A vast
collection of paintings is displayed on the
walls. “We wanted to show the previous
generations by mixing classical and
contemporary works so that this story stays
alive just like the city and the family”, say Marc
Hertrich and Nicolas Adnet.
Many original elements are preserved in the
design – such as the remarkable restored
woodwork – and are complemented by some
more modern additions. Walls adorned
with gold leaf, Limoges porcelain lamps
from Beau & Bien by Sylvie Maréchal, and
embroidered panels: modern touches
enhance the splendour of the hotel and
cultivate the comfortable luxurious spirit of
the place. Studio MHNA designed carpets
and decorative elements specifically for this
project.
