Mondrian Miami Review By B3 Designers
Marcel Wanders designs for Morgan’s Hotel Group
Although Marcel Wanders previous work includes other hotel design work (such as the Lute Suites), the Mondrian Miami is his first full scale hotel project. Conceived as a ‘Sleeping Beauty’s Fairy Castle’ by the designer, the interior has a surreal contemporary baroque touch; chic but playful.
The interior design features opulent furniture in painted and upholstered in bright red,
chandeliers encased in large golden bells and flowery motifs on walls and floors. The surreal quality is visible in the columns which look like over sized turned table legs and a large black staircase which spirals through the building. The staircase balustrade is made from fret cut black metal which allows this imposing structure to still look quite delicate. The hotel rooms feature many of Wanders own designs and continue the chic, playful baroque scheme.
