Hotel Residence Klosterpforte — Marienfeld, DE
The Hotel Residence Klosterpforte on the edge of the Teutoburg Forest sprawls across 180,000 square metres of a former abbey complex.
In the course of the first construction phase, some of the rooms in the abbey’s main building were converted into a restaurant and a new conservatory complete with a patio.
The historic park and gardens have been translated into the interior design in the form of colours, materials and wallpaper patterns. Design elements such as the walls and room dividers pick up the abbey’s striking window arches.
The conservatory creates a new gateway between the park and the building, allowing floods of daylight to cascade through. With its muted and earthy tones, the colour scheme draws the eye to explore the surrounding landscape.
The upstairs restaurant offers guests a vast array of options, with tables of various heights and sizes for all occasions. Exuding elegance and sophistication, the bar and buffet area complete with front-of-house cooking station mirror the refined ambience of the seating areas. The interplay of various lighting sources, such as the softly lit ceiling panels, striking floor lamps and pendant lights, adds individual accent lighting, creates distinct zones and bathes the space in an inviting and festive glow.
Building on the momentum of the initial construction phase, the lobby and bar are set to be converted next.
