Chic textiles, decorative metal and mosaic, and one-off pieces by Tom Dixon and Mark Brazier-Jones give Europa House a sophisticated style that is all its own. Wooden floors, deluxe bed linen, marble bathrooms and streamlined white/chrome kitchens lend an unfussy, modern appeal.

The artworks and collectible furniture are by no means just for show; the apartments are meant for living in. Guests can spread out, relax, entertain, cocoon, play and make themselves completely at home.
