Only you hotel in madrid designed by Lazaro rosa violan via belle vivir blog
Lazaro Rosa-Violan is probably one of the Interior Designers most posted about in blogs.  His design style is so globally chic that appeals to almost everyone who lays their eyes on one of his Interior projects.  One thing I love about his interiors is how Lazaro is able to mix different styles effortlessly.  One of Rosa-Violan’s constant design elements I’ve seen in his projects is the use of grand scale architectural focal points combined with vintage-looking pieces and ethnic-influenced pieces and accessories.  A bit of rusticality, in forms of chunky unpainted wood, is frequently found in his work as well.  I think it is a very smart way to tone down the allure side in his fantastic projects. For those who didn’t know Lazaro has sells through 1stdibs.  Whether Lazaro is designing residences or commercial spaces he seems to always think big, injecting a magnificent atmosphere to his design spaces.  The Only You Hotel in Madrid is no different.  Here Lozaro designed a wall in the entryway covered in Azulejos tiles that tidies up the rest of the navy blue and white palette found throughout the rest of the Hotel.  Floor to ceiling mirrored walls and eye-catching lighting fixtures are some of the
marvelous details found in the Only You Hotel in Madrid.

The chic and elegant color scheme in this modern flat makes me imagine a modern Audrey Hepburn living in the 21st century. The use of black and white with splashes of green, purple, red and blue give it such a feminine and fine atmosphere.
