PURO Hotel Warszawa Centrum by DeSalles Flint
Pure Contemporary Style
Warsaw is a deeply historical city with a modern, outward-looking attitude. The PURO hotel captures the essence of this energy, with a little help from London-based interior architects DeSalles Flint.
Housed in a sleek glass and steel building designed by Jems Architekci, the interior spaces are furnished with statement pieces from the cream of leading design brands. A grand retro-futuristic sofa from Baxter jostles for attention with distinctly sculptural chairs from Moroso, Diesel Living, Gubi and more, illuminated beautifully by a collection of stylish pendants. The use of sumptuous materials such as velvets and leather combined with a rich palette of greens, pinks and blues brings the different elements together to stunning effect, creating a harmonious, dynamic vibe. This is a great example of how bold furniture pieces can be blended together to create a vibrant and uplifting design scheme.

Product Inspiration
Create a stylishly bold design scheme with the Longwave armchair from Diesel Living, the Mafalda chair from Moroso and the Explorer side table from BD Barcelona Design.
Go for pendants that are simple, sophisticated and cool, such as the Black Note Triplet suspension light from LZF, the Cellight Penta from Frederik Roije and the Dancing pendant from Menu.
Wallpaper is a great way to create a feature wall. Try the Gramercy wallpaper from Mind The Gap. The Souk mirror from Dooq and the Florida bowl from Ghidini 1961 would look great too.
