HBA transformed the Royal Suite at the InterContinental London Park Lane to have a timeless and elegant style inspired by Queen Elizabeth II. Reflective surfaces creatively woven into the interiors increase its sense of spaciousness and luminosity. In the living room, antiqued mirrors border the coved ceiling to create an illusion of height, the coffee and side tables have glazed finishes, and a tufted leather bench is supported by a mirrored base.Given the suite’s debut in 2012, Her Majesty’s Diamond Jubilee year, the designers were captivated by the location\’s noble pedigree. HBA created a suite modeled in part after Her Majesty’s acclaimed fashion sense – as seen especially in Cecil Beaton’s photographs of her as a young woman. The new design also honors The Queen as both a tender family person and an archetypical figurehead respected around the world. [Photos and information provided by HBA London]
