Unique Aparthotel in the Lakeside of Zurich: Meet the Locke am Platz


Discover the aparthotel in the littoral of Enge that merges classic elegance with visionary modernity, creating a unique, luxurious environment.

In the metropolis of Switzerland, Zurich, the eccentric aparthotel brand Locke illuminates the lakeside city with the launching of the innovative Locke am Platz, characterized by its Riviera style, intelligent design and material contrasts embraced by the British design studio Tatjana von Stein.

Aparthotel

Being six floors tall and encompassing 80 sections, this aparthotel has various elements, from hotel-style rooms and suites to studios with large living areas and completely stocked kitchenettes. This way, not only is the building aesthetically pleasing, but it’s also functional, including the wildly divergent amounts of staying times, either a short city break or a more long and tarry one. Beyond that, this edifice also contains a significant volume of quality social spaces, such as a restaurant, a bar, and a café doubling, which is used as a co-working place.

This aparthotel proves that opposites do attract! Using different textures, styles, and shapes can indeed be harmonious, balanced, and still creative. As it’s very clear, further on this design technique being elegant due to its soft and simple shapes, there is also the presence of a warm color palette, accentuated through the rugs, for example, and a sense of movement created by the lively patterns, including the striped style in the curtains and bench, the funky wave pattern on the wooden walls and the squared shape of the floor. Moreover, another characteristic of this aparthotel that provides a sense of modesty and coziness is the mix of soft, plush materials, including metallic or woody ones.

Besides all these characteristics, another one that distinguishes this aparthotel from all the others is the perfect blend between classic and modern design. The astute union of contemporary elements such as statues, marble columns, and even ceiling paintings with up-to-date materials, like a full wall made of steel, has the power to really highlight the originality of these areas.

One of the most conditioning factors when it comes to a space’s lightness and harmonization is the amount of light available in it. In this case, the designers chose to use the best light possible, the natural one. This kept the flow and glow of the aparthotel even with the presence of such strong elements and colors.

As it is possible to understand by now, the main key to all these areas is the balance given to them. One of the most outstanding ways of achieving this balance is shown through the choice of colors. The use of earthy tones, such as terracotta, mustard, and olive-green, which have very similar hues, made possible the connection between all the elements present inside the rooms, and therefore, connected all the rooms together as well.

This aparthotel was able to mix the most unique and different patterns in most areas but also to accentuate a single color and predominant texture in others. There is a significant presence of bedrooms with a main warm color accompanied by soft, flowy materials. All of this together awakes a greater sense of homely coziness and has the power of exhaling a feeling of privacy with sympathy but also a light elegance.

This building’s design is the perfect example of everything being possible in the world of design. If well-planned, the mix of styles, textures, hues, patterns, and even classic and modern can actually create the most masterful, luxurious, and full of personality areas. To dive even more into the world of the well-balanced mix of classic and bold, explore the stunning design of a Manhattan pied-à-terre by Ellie Cullman, a great source of inspiration for your future design projects.
