#HTE

Set inside a 15th century mansion in the idyllic hinterland on the Spanish island of Mallorca, Jorge Bibiloni Studio has refurbished the rooms in the Son Julia Boutique Hotel. This is the second time the studio has worked with the hotel, this time focusing on eight out of the 29 rooms and suites.

The designers utilise the building’s original sandstone arches, using them as both aesthetic and practical features to separate the bathrooms from the sleeping areas. Balcony windows bring abundant natural light to the interior, with mirrors positioned behind bathroom blocks serve to amplify the sense of space, creating a play on light that adds a contemporary edge to the hotel’s rural surrounds.

Natural materials such as timber and stone give continuity with the rest of the hotel, with a focus on warm and subtle tones that add to the overall sense of hospitality. Beyond the original structure, every element of the interior, including headboards, sinks and tables were all made to measure by the designers.

Contemporary detailing such as matte black tapware and built-in textured concrete furniture that appears to emerge seamlessly from the walls and floors add further contrast to the centuries-old sandstone arches.

Jorge Bibiloni Studio has created layered details throughout, without overcomplicating or detracting from the striking bones of the original hotel building. Ten points from us.
