THE ULTIMATE HUBLOT<br />

EXPERIENCE<br />

IMMERSE YOURSELF IN THE SUITE HUBLOT 107 AT THE<br />

ATLANTIS BY GIARDINO IN ZURICH<br />

Nestled at the foot of the Uëtliberg, the<br />

Giardino Hotel Group opened its new fivestar<br />

superior hotel in Zürich at the beginning<br />

of December of 2015. This juxtaposition of<br />

urban luxury against the breathtaking natural<br />

backdrop of Zürich's neighbouring mountain<br />

caught Hublot's attention too.<br />

The Swiss luxury watch brand, always full of<br />

surprises, was given free rein to create a suite<br />

to their own designs. Guests are now able to<br />

fully immerse themselves in Hublot's world in<br />

the eponymous suite, "Hublot 107".<br />

There is symmetry in the use of space – the<br />

positioning and choice of furnishings in the 68<br />

m 2 suite, along with the configuration of the<br />

suite itself, embody the overarching concept<br />

of balance.<br />

Lavish fittings and textures transpose the<br />

luxurious, hedonistic style typical of Hublot's<br />

boutiques to the hotel suite. The modern<br />

composition of light, mirror effects and<br />

colours conveys an impression of pure<br />

sensuality and elegance.<br />

A refined combination of grey and black<br />

tones, the use of polished aluminium and black<br />

smoked mirror panels, alongside walls hung<br />

with grey velvet, all work together to perfectly<br />

encapsulate the chic, seductive lifestyle<br />

characterised by the Hublot brand.<br />

A particularly eye-catching object in the suite<br />

is the most impressive chronograph<br />

Chandelier in the living room Inspired by an<br />

exploded view of Hublot's Unico<br />

Chronograph. Its light produces enticing and<br />

extraordinary reflections in the black mirrors.<br />

Apart from this installation, the colorful<br />

paintings show the passion of the watch brand<br />

for its products. The contemporary Big Bang<br />

pop art in striking neon colours splashed<br />

across a number of decorative screens.<br />
