SPA LUCESPA, HOLLY WOOD

While at DMJM ROTTET, Robbyn was a part of a team of designers who realised Spa Luce, a luxury and chic spa located

in the heart of Hollywood, California.

The Spa fuses the inspiration of classic Mediterranean cultures with stark, modern simplicity to create a space that transcends centuries while evoking an ultra-modern white-on-white aesthetic. The interiors integrate an evocative palette of textures, surfaces and tonal subtleties that seamlessly incorporate ancient hand-chiseled Jerusalem stone, petrified wood and gently undulating sweeps of stucco walls.

Reminiscent of Santorini or Capri design, the modern refinements include artful waves of casted concrete panels that produce a contemporary, California-inspired counterpoint. From chiseled Jerusalem stone wash basins and mosaic tiles to hand troweled plaster, attention do detail is the underling theme through the Spa.
