Art’otel is a collection of hotels located in cosmopolitan cities across Europe that fuse exceptional architectural style with art-inspired interiors. At the heart of the brand lies the art itself with each hotel displaying a collection of post-1945 original artwork designed or acquired specifically for that particular property. Each hotel focuses on the work of one designated artist, and for the Art ‘otel Berlin, prints and etchings by Georg Baselitz provided the lead inspiration for the development of the interior design concept.

This, together with the introduction of contemporary forms and materials and a layering of historical references has further contributed to distinguishing this remarkable brand.

The Atellior team was responsible for the interior design and refurbishment of all bedrooms and suites, the hotel lobby, bar, restaurant and other public areas. The Artelior team drew inspiration from the work of Georg Baselitz, his approach to bold moves of Neo-Impressionism and his famous paintings turned upside-down. Clusters of lights above reception pods nod to his distorted perspective of turning objects of his paintings on their head, so to speak. Beautiful Fritz Hansen furniture and lamps by Artisan reflect in their soft colour scheme some of Baselitz's work. The concrete bench at the entrance lobby was inspired by the dynamic form of Baselitz's signature and his three largest paintings hang proudly above.

Art'otel's refurbishment drew a lot of attention from the international press, including Wallpaper*, a revered design magazine.
