FEATURE | HOTEL DESIGN LIGHTING

Block Hotel & Living Ingolstadt, Germany The Block Hotel & Living was reopened in 2018 with the aim of being the most popular hotel in Ingolstadt, Germany. A hotel steeping in generations of family history, a complete new build was created, which has not only become a splendind beacon of architecture, but also allows its guests conceptually new experiences. The lobby at the Block Hotel & Living is more than a meeting place, it is the living room of the hotel's guests. A spacious, light-flooded hotel area, with its various levels, each providing the space experience that its guests are looking for - relaxation time at the free-standing, open fireplace overlooking the gardens, while the bar level is just the place to have a coffee break during the day with a coffee or to end it with a good drink. In terms of lighting the space, Italian brand Terzani was chosen. In the image you can see Doodle, designed by Simone Micheli and Mizu, Flowing Light designed by Nicolas

Terzani. In Doodle, product designer Simone Micheli has created a new, contemporary light. Like us, each Doodle is unique, each pendant is handcrafted by artisans to resemble a randomised path. And, to give us control over the journey we want to take, each LED light source can be placed anywhere on the light, not only reflecting the choices we make in life, but giving Doodle a special flexibility. Also featured in the space is Mizu designed by Nicolas Terzani. Inspired by the tranquil and mesmerising light refractions created by water, Mizu is a customisable pendant light. Like water droplets, no two Mizus are alike, each crystal shape is unique and made meticulously by hand. Using only the clearest crystal, Mizu perfectly emulates water’s refraction of light, casting amazing patterns around the room, reminiscent of flowing water. www.terzani.com
