St. Regis Hotel

St. Regis Hotel

Project | Hospitality
Designer | Pierre-Yves Rochon

Renovation of The St. Regis, Rome hotel was led by the distinguished interior design firm Pierre-Yves Rochon. PYR honoured the proud 125-year legacy of The St. Regis by celebrating imperial details through the sparkling crystals of the Murano chandeliers, intricate mosaics and Venetian mirrors, reminiscent of bygone Roman glory.

Design team at Pierre Yves-Rochon combined the Roman classical spirit with a contemporary ‘’Belle Époque’’ style, resulting in a timeless, oppulent and alluring ambiance. Belle Époque literally translates to 'Beautiful Age' and is referred to the years between 1880 and 1914. In this era of France’s cultural and artistic climate the arts markedly flourished, with numerous masterpieces of literature, music, theatre, and visual art gaining extensive recognition.

Decca produced various loose bespoke furniture including, coffee tables, side tables, cabinets, chairs, chaises, sofas, ottomans and beds for the guest rooms and suites. The guest rooms and suites were split in two phases. The last part of the project was the development of the furniture for the Royal and Presidential Suites completed in early 2020.

Highly desired finishes throughout the hotel include warm rosewood, black and ivory lacquer with high sheen, antique brass and polished stainless steel; The modern colour palette used throughout The St. Regis hotel accentuates the uniquely designed classic pieces.

A few pieces from our standard collections have also been used in the luxury suites.

Development of the dining tables were especially challenging, the structure of the table with a tall, central post and heavy marble top raised stability issues.

In order not to compromise the design and match the overall finish codes of the rooms, Decca suggested adding an antique brass plate at the bottom to increase the surface in contact with the floor. Counterweights were also added at the base of the table to further improve stability.

One of our favourite pieces we produced at Decca is the Presidential Suite desk made with curved plexiglass, black lacquer and brushed brass, which was challenging in terms of development.

However the end result was strikingly unique and modern, creating a beautiful juxtaposition amongst the classical pieces used in the room.

Decca brought their expertise in bespoke furniture production, turning the designs of PYR team a reality. Our role was to study the technical feasibility of custom designs and develop bespoke products with high standards of quality, within a short span of time. PYR agency since collaborated with Decca on several hotel projects and private
residences, including the Martinez Hotel in Cannes, the Grand Hotel Kronenhof in Pontresina and the Sacher Hotel in Salzburg, amongst others.
