His chief concern is to bring the human touch back to design, ushering in a ‘new age of design’, in which designer, craftsperson and user are reunited.

Regarded by many as an anomaly in the design world, Marcel Wanders has made his mission to “create an environment of love, live with passion and make our most exciting dreams come true.” The work excites, provokes, and polarises, but never fails to surprise for its ingenuity, daring and singular quest to uplift the human spirit, and entertain. In this process, Marcel Wanders defies design dogma, preferring instead to focus on holistic solutions rather than the technocratic. In this universe, the coldness of industrialism is replaced instead by the poetry, fantasy and romance of different ages, vividly brought to life in the contemporary moment. www.marcelwanders.com

What happens if you mix one of Europe’s most exciting travel destinations, a historical building, and the design style of Marcel Wanders? The magical Kimpton BEM Budapest Hotel!

This luxury boutique hotel operated by IHG Hotels & Resorts celebrates its official opening next week. Let’s dive in and learn more design details about this new hotspot in Budapest. Transformed from a historic 19th-century mansion along the Danube to a sophisticated 127-room enclave, the 5-star superior hotel design is inspired by Budapest’s rich folklore & vibrant energy and the Hungarian myth of ‘The Golden Stag and the Turul Bird’. The fusion of Hungarian folklore elements and modern elegance makes this ‘palace of beauty’ outstanding.

“Something new, something amazing, something that enchants you. It’s about creating a place that feels quintessentially Budapest yet refreshingly global”, says Marcel.

At Kimpton BEM Budapest, you will be greeted by exciting stories, mystical elements, and different layers. Respect for Hungarian culture is evident even before you enter the hotel through its delicately chiselled wrought iron gateway, which incorporates the mythical reference of the Golden Stag (Csodaszarvas in Hungarian), the Turul bird, and ornamentation from the Budapest Art Nouveau period. At the entrance, guests are welcomed by two signature topiaries of Marcel Wanders.

We are convinced that people will want to travel to Budapest just for the experience of staying at this hotel that captures the unique flavours of Budapest. Do you think the same?

The collaboration between the renowned Italian glass mosaic company Bisazza began more than twenty years ago. During these years, many exquisite design pieces were born, like the Pebbles collection of stone-shaped coffee tables.

“The word that comes to mind is ‘surprising’. Bisazza’s affinity for beauty with just the right amount of innovation is in perfect alignment with our goal of uplifting the human spirit and bringing the human touch back to design. Together, we make the world less boring”, says Marcel.

Thanks to the exceptional artists of Bisazza, Marcel’s drawings come to life. The Pebbles collection pieces are such an excellent example of this. Placing every glass mosaic in its place hand-by-hand and with enormous attention makes these pieces authentic and unique at the same time. These Pebbles are detailed with hand-cut gold and glass tiles offering flower patterns. Each is surprising in its own way; they are designed to make people smile as they encounter them and wonder if, perhaps, they have stumbled into a secret field.

Did you know that each piece of the limited edition Pebbles is named after women’s names?

And the making of the Calliope for WonderGlass

29/08/2024

“Design is an international language of ideas. If I make objects loved, that is already a fantastic ecological step”, says Marcel Wanders while creating the dynamic chandelier Calliope for WonderGlass.

Marcel likes visiting his clients during the prototype production phase. So exciting to follow the design as it takes shape, especially when it comes to a product combining different materials and techniques, like the Calliope.
Inspired by Japanese calligraphy and created from handblown Murano glass, the Calliope chandelier gracefully creates spatial and versatile light installations when clustered or by itself. With oblate spheroids shapes and synthetic hairbrushes, ‘Calliope’ is a timeless floating illuminating pendant that swings slightly with the wind.

The floating pendants of this unique modular chandelier provide an adaptable design that can expand to create complete ceilings or room installations, either clustered or solitary. This chandelier truly captures our attention and inspires our imagination.

28/08/2024

Our last behind-the-scenes row takes you to the ‘after-design process,’ when the production plays the main role. Marcel Wanders’ design philosophy also includes celebrating and respecting craftsmanship. No wonder Marcel pays attention to the last phase when the production is made and created. We selected three exciting projects for you, starting with making the Carbon Balloon Chair, part of Marcel Wanders’ Personal Editions collection.

“The real excitement in products is if you can do something that hasn’t been done. A chair is not per se interesting, but a chair that hasn’t been done is interesting. I’m not interested in the subject. I’m interested in the expression of an idea”, says Marcel Wanders.

Creating ‘light furniture’ has inspired many designers through the last decades. The Knotted Chair is already a great example, as it weighs 1.2 kg, but creating an even lighter chair was challenging. This is how the Carbon Balloon Chair debuted at the Stedelijk Museum in 2014 with its 800 grams! Marcel used balloons of woven carbon filled with compressed air to fill volumes and create light. The sturdy structure is achieved by using epoxy. This is how the challenge to make the ‘maximum’ with ‘minimum’ resources was completed, blurring the lines between industrial processes and craftsmanship.

The Carbon Balloon Chair is made by hand and is thus only available in limited editions. The first chair was black, but during the following years, other versions, such as in gold, white gold, or delft blue, were added to the collection.

25/08/2024

We also prepared an interior surprise for you! Are you familiar with the Virtual Interiors series that is part of the Marcel Wanders’ Personal Editions collection?

“I love contrasts. I don’t like to make objects or spaces that dissolve into nothingness, just as I don’t like spaces that are continuously full on. Every space is like a theatre set. There, a few items correspond to the important players, then there are supporting actors, and lastly, the light,” says Marcel Wanders.

The perfect world of Virtual Interiors emerge from the disappointment about the durability of reality, trading eternity for reality. Their undefined structure leads visitors into idyllic and strange locations, that exist without physical reality. Everything seems perfect in these virtual fantasy interiors, but there is a constant suspicion that something isn't quite right.

These works were born from Marcel’s deep understanding of how power needs beauty and beauty needs power.

Mixing patterns, textures, and altering two- and three-dimensional surfaces, combined with changes in shape and size: Marcel provides a unique experience through his use of theatricality and fairy-tale narrative, historical metaphors, and adopting handcraft techniques, meanwhile we can enjoy his boundless creativity. Besides several hotels and residences, he designed many retail interiors as well, like Maison Decorté, Villa Moda Bahrain, or the Mandarina Duck Flagship Store.

MAISON DECORTÉ in Tokyo takes you on a journey to renew the mind, body, and spirit. Four themed environments - rejuvenation, the shield of a lush forest, purification, and calmness – divided into three treatment rooms and a retail space, represent nature’s effect on female skin.

The renders of VILLA MODA BAHRAIN showcase the artisanship, and local motifs. A long, narrow corridor leads to a dramatic space with a high-ceiling, giant black and white patterns on custom-made carpets, over-scale wallpaper, and Bisazza mosaics.

The design of the MANDARINA DUCK FLAGSHIP STORE was inspired by the legendary traveller, Gulliver. Bright yellow, and a seven metre tall standing figure connected the two floors of the building. Supporting his presence is a two-story chromed breathing mirror wall and 40 other mannequins designed to breathe.

After the product design sketches let’s continue our Behind the scenes journey with interior design renders this week. With the help of renders exquisite design dreams are made true!

What did Marcel think about interior design back in time? “I quickly realised interior design was far more interesting than I thought. With interior design, the rules are different. A product needs one idea, but an interior needs a thousand ideas that all speak to each other and intertwine. Interiors encompass people and they encompass time. As a designer, you have the gift of being able to really add fun and value to people’s lives.”

Designing interiors allows Marcel Wanders to reach many people uniquely and profoundly. He creates spaces that have a deep impact and raise exciting questions about how interiors could look. During these years many residential projects have embodied Marcel's distinctive design style.

QUASAR, the hall of luxurious apartment building in Istanbul contains a sculptural element with a European face on one side and an Asian on the other. It symbolises the position and culture of Istanbul as a bridge between two continents.
The extravagant and high-rise apartment building JVC in Mexico combines nature and technology. Each floor was iconically designed as a living garden and to be a place of protection.
In our selection, you can also see the two Wanders&YOO projects: OH! and HYDE PANAMA, the HARYADI RESIDENCE, CASA SON VIDA or the luxurious PRIVATE RESIDENCE TAIPEI with bespoke furniture set an exquisite tone.

Poetry made real. These are the best words describing the unique pattern of the Jardin d’Eden silverware collection designed by Marcel Wanders for Christofle.

You can follow the beautifully curling flowers on Marcel’s sketches, that make this collection so elegant. A vibrant homage to nature engraved on silver with interlaced leaves, flowers, and curls inspired and named by the most famous and lush garden. Harnessing the finest of what the worlds of design and silversmith's craft offer, this extraordinary collection includes the most elegant flatware, tableware, and home accessories gracefully designed with exceptional etching work. From utensils to serving pieces, such as plates, coasters, carafes, and salt and pepper shakers to vases and candelabras, all the pieces are emblazoned with an iconic signature pattern featuring interlaced leaves, curled lys flowers, and apples against an encompassing geometric matrix.

This sensual Jardin d’Eden collection makes every meal more memorable than the last. Do not hesitate to visit Christofle’s website and try out these exclusive pieces.

The United Crystal Woods was the first collection along the way of the fruitful and highly professional cooperation between Marcel Wanders and Baccarat. Marcel had a dream and Baccarat brought it to life. This is how this extraordinary collection of cut-crystal vases with metal bases, wine glasses, and carafes featuring Marcel's silhouette wearing a clown nose, candelabras, and candlesticks were born, new and surprising creativity, thoroughly combining diverse materials, styles, and elements.

United Crystal Woods is a fantastic journey into another dimension. Inspired by nature, the design is devoted to the legendary animals of the forest. And how was this Forest of United Crystal exactly? One day Marcel woke up in the forest of the united crystals.

“Too much light forcing me to close my eyes, too many sparkles for a heavy night. I was lost. After hanging around a little in the united forest of the united crystals my imagination drifted further and entered the border of another strange forest. Here the trees were bathing in the lights of four different suns. The light hit the crystal dewdrop-trees, the kings of the forest, in their own special seasonal manner. Four royal trees attracted these rays of light, silently battling over the evolution of their royal status.”

Have you spotted the deer and the trees on Marcel’s sketches?

People often ask Marcel Wanders: Where does your inspiration come from? And he doesn’t hesitate to answer: “It really comes from inside. It sits inside of you. There's this urge, this need, you have this philosophy, you want to prove your point, you want to make that. I want to make a type of design that's different from human design. My philosophy of design and my life is centred around a single word: surprise.”

We start our ‘Behind the scenes’ series and take you back in time this week. To give you an idea of how Marcel’s designs looked before and after the designing period.
And what is the first step of the design process? The idea and loads of drawing, of course!
While exploring and refining ideas, Marcel used to draw a lot, and he really enjoyed it. Now you can discover his sketches, which are really rare finds!

Let’s start! Have you ever wondered how the sketches of the Knotted Chair or other designs looked like? This surprising and groundbreaking chair was designed in 1996 and represents a fascinating marriage of high-tech and low-tech methods. Meanwhile the iconic wall clock, the Big Ben for Moooi came to life in 2012. This enormous clock helps us regain consciousness of time’s weight.

30/07/2024

It's time to indulge in relaxation and self-renewal! Did you know that most hotels designed by Marcel Wanders boast exclusive spa areas? These spa and wellness havens offer a unique journey that blends health, beauty, and wellbeing. They are your personal hideaways, away from your rooms, where you can bask in intimate, peaceful settings, feeling truly privileged and special.

These sensory oases are about more than just the amenities. They are a feast for the eyes, with unique designs that will pique your curiosity. Characterised by rain showers, changing rooms, various saunas, steam rooms, bespoke mosaic floors, and moody lighting, they create a mysterious and magical atmosphere that will leave you intrigued and wanting more.

The spa section of Mondrian Doha is considered a world-class wellness destination. Respecting the local traditions, ladies can indulge in a secret garden covered in flower petals full of custom-designed rain showers with heat experience, luxurious relaxation day beds, and a giant indoor tent. Men gather at a spa influenced by black-and-white mosques, a spa area that, with its strong geometric patterns, creates an urban environment.

In our selection, you can also enjoy The Donna Portals spa area with the Tree of Life or the elegant wellness area of Kameha Grand Bonn and Kameha Grand Zurich, Autograph Collection.

Our residential projects offer a world of exclusivity, each boasting a unique pool. The Hyde project, a luxurious collaboration with the global brand YOO, is a gem nestled in the heart of Panama City.

July is the perfect time to unwind and enjoy the splendour of designer pools in hotels, especially those designed by Marcel Wanders. To celebrate summer, we have prepared a great selection of pools and spa areas this week.

Let’s start with the hotel pools. Imagine enjoying the sunshine and the pool water, surrounded by stunning design and exquisite details. These pools are a true testament to luxury, from infinity edges that seem to merge with the horizon to intricate mosaics that add a touch of artistry.

The pool of The Donna Portals in Mallorca surprises its guests with a majestic waterfall that flows from over 30 metres above. The pool itself is designed with white, turquoise, and blue mosaic tiles by Bisazza, revealing a floral pattern.

The tropical pool of Mondrian South Beach in Miami is surrounded by cosy, Mediterranean-inspired loungers and large umbrellas. Here, you can ease into your own personal spot in the sun or shade and enjoy full poolside service.

You have reached your destination! When you enter the 26th floor of Mondrian Doha, you will reach the breathtaking indoor pool. This pool imitates a canal with a green bridge linking opposing sides of the space. Next to it is a black-and-white tower and an outdoor garden.

There’s no better way to celebrate summer than by experiencing the unparalleled design of these magnificent pools.

21/07/2024

Want to play more? No problem! The Jeux de Cristal collection also includes Backgammon, Checkers, Domino, and Chinese Go.

What drew Marcel Wanders’ attention was the challenge of creating luxurious pieces embodying timelessness's true meaning.
Domino, a game with a rich history, is one of the world's best-known games. The oldest set of dominoes was discovered in the tomb of Tutankhamen. Traditionally made from wood, mother of pearl, or animal bones, these pieces take on a new level of sophistication when crafted in crystal. Your game box, made from inlaid marble and adorned with a red crystal tassel, houses 28 pieces in gilded black crystal.
Meanwhile, Backgammon dates back 5000 years to Mesopotamia. The rules are simple: breaking, attacking, blocking, or trapping, but winning the game calls for real strategy, right?

While playing with these unique pieces, have you noticed the graphic coin that tells a three-flower story? The French fleur de lys, the Dutch tulip, and the flower from the first board game ever found, The Game of Ur.

20/07/2024

Adored by the finest strategists, chess is a fascinating game. It has long been a source of inspiration for the most significant artists, like Matisse or Dali.
Translated into crystal by Marcel Wanders for Baccarat, the King of Games and the Game of Kings is transformed into a genuine collector’s item. 16 pawns in clear crystal, 16 pawns in black crystal. Chessboard in black and white inlaid marble bearing the signatures of Baccarat and Marcel Wanders. Each set is numbered beneath the precise crystal king. Each pawn is engraved with the “B” of Baccarat.

Marcel Wanders has restyled each piece with humour and artistry, from the mane of the knight’s steed to the bishop’s mitre and the hem of his gown. Topped with a magnificent crown, the King and Queen are a tribute to Baccarat’s golden red. And as a final fanciful touch, the Queen doubles up as a stem vase in which to slip a single rose at the end of each game. Checkmate!

Happy International Chess Day!

20/07/2024

Let’s play! On this International Chess Day, we have a great toy for you: a chessboard designed by Marcel Wanders for Baccarat. The Jeux de Cristal, numbered Game Collection, is a luxurious, elegant interpretation of strategy and honour.

Chess, with its origins tracing back over a millennium, is not merely a game but a powerful tool for education, strategy, and critical thinking. It teaches us patience, foresight, and the value of planning ahead.

This design reinterpretation of legendary, timeless games means simply holding on to and sharing centuries-old cultural traditions through luxurious modernity. Together with International Chess Day, we also celebrate quality, the reinvention of craftsmanship, and the know-how of the manufacturer’s artisans today. Inspired by the tactics and flow of movements, each game features elegant details reflecting the appeal of victory and the heroism in defeat.
Designed with marble and crystal, the set embodies the longstanding collaboration between Marcel Wanders and Baccarat.

Marcel Wanders introduced a renewed modernity with the Harcourt Tulipe collection while preserving the iconic features that defined its success. He retained the Harcourt glass' original hexagonal base and reimagined its six facets as petals, capturing the elegance of a tulip in bloom. This interplay between the strong base and graceful curves was embodied in three exclusive creations by Baccarat's artisans: a coupe, a bowl, and a plate.

Designed for contemporary versatility, this collection inspired creativity and added an organic charm to any table or console. The tulip, a symbol of love and positive sentiments, also reflects Dutch heritage, paying homage to Wanders' roots. This motif underscored the emotional essence of design. With Harcourt Tulipe, Marcel Wanders celebrated the joy of sharing cherished moments illuminated by the unique brilliance of Baccarat crystal.

29th February is an extra day for extra beautiful things: Enjoy it!

It is all about time today! And also, about how we can measure it: time for looking for Marcel Wanders’ clocks and watches! According to Marcel, clocks have a very decorative aspect. We start with CUCKOO CLOCK, part of the Jardin d’Eden Collection, designed for Christofle. This state-of-the-art monumental grandfather clock is an extraordinary object that embraces time and the passing of it while bringing it to life with Adam and Eve as its exceptional timekeeper. Going back to the beginning of time, back to the Garden of Eden. Cuckoo Clock is a timeless piece, available only in a numbered limited edition of eight, to remind you of the times in life worth remembering. The 38 kg BIG BEN designed for Moooi is a giant decorative wall clock based on the ornate clock face of the famous landmark. Big Ben helps us regain consciousness of time’s weight. Meanwhile, the colourful, stainless steel ALESSI WATCHES were specifically crafted for those who want to be dressed for the occasion. Like time itself, these elegantly designed watches can be shared or kept private: they have two sides – a timeless public facing surface and a concealed underside featuring a hidden decorative beauty known only to the wearer. 29th February is an extra day for extra beautiful things: Enjoy it! #marcelwanders #marcelwandersdesign #leapyear #29february #bigbenclock #designclock #designwatch #cuckooclock #christofle #moooi #alessi

Today, we are gifted with an extra 24 hours!

Today, we are gifted with an extra 24 hours! 29th February is a day that only comes around once every four years, and we have a chance to create more memories or do something beautiful. The concept of time has puzzled philosophers, scientists, and thinkers for centuries. Some argue that time is illusory, while others view time as a fundamental dimension, inseparable from our existence. Indeed, time influences every aspect of our reality. Marcel Wanders has a unique connection with time. Marcel counts time in ‘milestones’ rather than hours or minutes. These milestones are our moments = our memories, or important occasions, like completing a design project, wedding anniversary, or upcoming vacation. With these milestones, you can record important past or future moments and track how many seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years have passed since that precious moment or are still left until the next one. Do you like this concept? Use this leap year to collect more milestones and moments! #marcelwanders #marcelwandersdesign #leapyear #milestone #29february
