Interior Designer: Megre Interiors

The Glinz Hotel is located in a small historical building, which naturally led to the desire to reflect connections of the past, present and future in the design concept. All the architectural elements inherent in the building – low ceilings, beautiful arches on the ground floor, tiled stoves and a staircase with steps made of Putilov stone – have been preserved to give guests the atmosphere of the place.

The architecture of the building became the basis for the concept of interior design. The arches are emphasized by textured tactile plaster in the style of a mud hut, which gives interesting figurative associations and softens the geometry of the space. Due to its tone and texture, the material resembles the cream of a freshly brewed frothy latte, walls of ancient buildings and even a fluffy duvet. The matte and rough texture of the plaster expressively contrasts with the smooth glossy surfaces used in the interior.

The colour scheme is based on nuances and the play of warm shades of grey and sand, creating an enveloping cozy atmosphere inside the hotel. Cold light falls from the windows most of the year, so all shades were tested and selected directly on the object to achieve the effect of a warm glow. The textiles of calm tones, pleasant to the touch, double the feeling of home comfort of the Glinz hotel.

The main highlight of the project is the multifunctional zone of the first floor, which hotel guests can use at any time of the day. There is a reception, lobby, lounge area, business space, bar, as well as a small restaurant. The chamber atmosphere is created not only by restrained colours, but also by vintage pieces of furniture, the design of which is dominated by rounded shapes and smooth lines that echo the semicircles of the arches.

When designing the hotel rooms, the designers were faced with the task of creating a concept that harmoniously translates into rooms of different configurations. The design of the rooms is minimalistic, concise and relaxing. There are no unnecessary details, the space is as functional and comfortable as possible. The rooms are designed in the same style as the multifunctional area of the hotel: light and warm colours; voluminous pieces of furniture with smooth lines, which were supplemented with style. Almost all the furniture in the rooms is made according to the design of Megre Interiors.

For hotel guests who came to the northern capital on business, an ergonomic workspace was created in the rooms. The geometry of the rooms and the thick walls of the historic building, which provide good sound insulation, made it possible to make niches and integrate into them a specially designed system of shelves, a mini bar and a console table.

The Glinz Hotel is a fashionable chamber hotel for those who appreciate quality, history, authenticity and modern comfort.
