ROOM FOR ME


As restorative as a holiday can be,
one downfall of homes – or hotels –
away from home is that they lack the
personalization that makes intimate
space intimate. In the age of customized
everything, it seems second nature that
vacationers should be able to feel more
comfortable than ever in hospitality
spaces. But how? By making guests co-
creators of the rooms they inhabit: the
incorporation of adjustable elements
and furniture can get designers much
closer to accommodating everyone’s
tastes. – LGM

Molteni&C’s Twelve AM collection bed by Neri&Hu is built with rich materials
and can accommodate any kind of mattress. An accompanying bench (pictured)
has two functions: it can be used at the foot of the bed, or turned into a small
alcove for hanging clothes and changing with an add-on unit.

Created by Poliform and Jean-Marie Massaud, the modular Westside
sofa is like an island unto itself – the system can be configured in a
classic angular style or deconstructed widely for maximum relaxation.

Plug & Light, a decorative light by Tobias Link for
Jung, has an LED unit that docks onto a wall- or
ceiling-mounted device with a magnet. Each light
can be swivelled 360 degrees, and is completely
dimmable to one’s own preference.
