The trend of individualized artistic expression on hotel room walls is spreading. In June, we reported on the Hotel Des Arts in San Francisco. Now this, from Inhabitat.com:
“Everyone is drawing on the walls at Hotel Fox — at least everyone who is someone in the world of urban art, graphic design and illustration. Situated in the heart of Copenhagen, the sixty-one rooms have been individually (and stunningly) painted, creating a boutique hotel unlike any other.
“Each room has its own character and its own story. Like room #408, by Hort, where the walls are drenched in a graphic green forest. Or room #209 (pictured above), by the French designers Antoine et Manuel, where everything is about chance.
“Hotel Fox is the product of a collaboration between Volkswagen and Project Fox, a network of young artists and innovators fusing art, culture, travel and gastronomy. The hotel fosters the growth of a burgeoning generation of cooks, hotel managers and artists. A rooftop bar boasts exceptional mixology on top of sprawling views of the city.
“Hotel Fox debuted during the month of April as a drawn-out (and done-up) unveiling for the new VW Fox, and having taken its urban root, the hotel now stands to have a long and fruitful life as an independent enterprise. Check out the hotel’s site for details on each room and links to the artists who created this collective masterpiece.”
