Graffiti Hotel Room

Hello everyone! Chloé from Plenty of Colour here and I’m thrilled to have this new opportunity to pop up on the fabulous COLOURlovers blog a couple of times a month. What an incredible community devoted to all things bright and colorful.

This week, I wanted to share a rather unique hotel room in Au Vieux Panier hotel in Marseille, France that caught my eye. The ‘Panic Room’ was created by artist Tilt and features one half of pure white and one half soaked in layers of colourful graffiti.

I also love the round mirror with just a hint of colour.

Check out the bed fabric!

It is quite a fascinating design that feels at once sterile and artfully chaotic (and perfect for a COLOURlover). Perhaps some might find it less than restful but I imagine it would feel like living in an art installation! The Au Vieux Panier has five rooms redone every year by different artists which is such an intriguing idea.

What do you think? Would you book the ‘Panic Room’ on your next vacation?

Chloé is a Vancouver designer and maker of things. Madly in love with colour since her first toddler glance of the hardware store paint chip wall, Chloé decided to create Plenty of Colour as a daily blog devoted to the topic. When not editing excessive exclamation points out of business emails or swooning over her Pantone guide, you can find Chloé fusing modern technology and handcrafted detail for an array of design clients as well as her own colour-focused projects.
