Set in an historically listed building in Barcelona, just a stone’s throw from Gaudi’s Casa Milà, lies the new H10 Casa Mimosa. The transformation of the four star oasis was led by Tarruella Trenchs Studio’s Sandra Tarruella, Ricard Trenchs and Olga Pajares – all of whom wielded considerable design skill in this seamless integration of old world charm and contemporary design luxury.
THE MAIN ENTRY…brims with history, complete with coffered ceilings, an original staircase, and 19th century lighting. Photo by Emilio Lecuona. |
KNOWN FOR…creating spaces that evoke emotion, the designers used an abundance of noble materials and natural colors to create an easy sense of elegance and comfort. Photo by Emilio Lecuona. |
THE SUITES…boast extensive custom detailing, from the signature walnut headboards to the black glass and brass nightstands… every detail was meticulously considered. Photo by Emilio Lecuona. |
PRIOR TO…the renovation, Tarruella Trenchs commissioned Emilio Lecuona to capture the raw state of the building and its gardens. These black and white photos became the basis for the graphic art that hangs throughout the hotel today. Photo by Emilio Lecuona. |
SLEEK BATHS…provide an extra dose of modern comfort, all while maintaining a strong, material-based, tie to the hotel at large. Photo courtesy of H10 Casa Mimosa. |
IN THE OLD…carriage house, restored ceiling detail and an original, but relocated, fireplace add charm and history to the now multi use space. Photo courtesy of H10 Casa Mimosa. |
ON THE…roof, guests take in historic views of Gaudi’s Casa Milà while just below, they’re treated to a garden oasis complete with pool and palms. Photo by Emilio Lecuona. |
