Reinterpreting the monumentality of Rome in the contemporary
The Borghese Contemporary Hotel’s 24 rooms tell the typical elements of ancient Rome. On the walls are timeless volumetric landscapes, contemporary reinterpretations of classical architecture, but also references to Giorgio De Chirico's Metaphysics. The upholstery is reminiscent of Roman triclinia and the marble washbasins in the rooms recall the Roman Domus and the famous 'Nasoni' fountains in the streets of the capital. The colours and materials also recall Romanity, with the use of velvet, marble and travertine for the floors and walls, in warm shades of burgundy, dark green, beige and red. The textured plasters on the walls emphasise the compact volumes and the earth colours used recall the colours of the city's buildings.
Special attention was paid to the design of the spaces, especially to their division in relation to the original morphology of the building. Smaller rooms were eliminated to give more space to more spacious rooms and suites. The volumes of the bathroom, although perfectly capable of dialoguing with the entire atmosphere of the room, are detached from the walls and ceiling by shutters that emphasise their “box within a box” nature.
Technology in dialogue with the historicity of the building
The classicism of the materials interacts with the modernity of the technological systems in the rooms. In fact, the rooms are equipped with badge sensors with presence detectors. It is therefore not necessary to take out the key card each time to activate the comfort and services of the room. The television is equipped with an IPTV antenna that interfaces with the facility's VPA, but the real plus of the Borghese Contemporary Hotel is the possibility of projecting what you watch from a mobile device onto the television, through the Casting Automation system. The guests can enjoy this service by scanning a QR code. The system only communicates with the connected device, for the period of time the guest is connected. At check-out it automatically disconnects, maintaining the privacy of the guest.
