London, United Kingdom, 2017-03-07 –

The recent World Interiors News Awards 2016 gala evening was truly a night to remember, in the very best of ways. The great and the good of the interiors world gathered together from around the globe for a glittering celebration of some of the industry’s most outstanding projects and products – all against the impressive backdrop of London’s iconic new Design Museum.

 

Being a WIN Awards winner, or even making it to the shortlist, is a remarkable achievement. It’s something all the designers featured in this celebratory compilation should be truly proud of; because each distinguished and discerning judge on the World Interiors News panel is appointed under the strict criteria of reputation, expertise, and their passionately held views on what constitutes excellence in design.

 

Once again, World Interiors News congratulates all its deserving winners.

Importance of Walking Store by Praxis d’Architecture

An unexpected situation with the lease required the design for the space to be as economical as possible and fast to build. Furthermore, the shoe shelves were intended to be self-supporting, movable and ready for re-assembling. Effectively an independent piece of furniture, the installation could be moved easily and with minimal wastage.

JOINT WINNER: HOTELS
Puro Hotel by OHLAB

Puro is an iconic 22 room boutique hotel located in the heart of La Lonja, in the historical centre of Palma.
Adapting itself to the different existing buildings, the hotel has an irregular configuration. The refurbishment project by OHLAB takes advantage of that complexity as a potential tool to generate unexpected and unique spaces where each room is different from the next. The selection of natural and local materials emphasizing the Mediterranean essence has been very important.
