About the project
The ReMIX Hotel is a four star hotel located on the River Droite in Paris, which officially opened in September 2021. Designed by Saar Zafrir Design, The ReMIX Hotel transports guests back in time, with a colourful and nostalgic interior reminiscent of the 1980s. The concept of The ReMIX Hotel revolves around codes of music, with 80’s hit ‘Forever Young’ by Alphaville manifesting as the ‘soundtrack’ to the hotel’s design, remixed with modern day version by Jay-Z & Mr. Hudson. The significance of the song has determined the entire narrative for the hotel, which emanates a mischievous, playful energy mixed with nostalgic 80’s vibes and design references.
The remodeled hotel encompasses 259 stylish rooms accommodating from single occupancy up to seven people, a lobby bar and casual dining lounge, a co-working space, meeting and banquet rooms and ‘old-school’ gaming area reminiscent of 1980’s arcades. Upon entering The ReMIX Hotel, guests are greeted by a reception desk constructed from original cassette tapes slotted together, finished with a sophisticated marble top. The self-check-in facility is set into an original arcade machine, and in the lobby bar, a wall of old, analogue televisions stacked upon each other broadcast 24 hour content through advanced video mapping technology.
The main challenges faced with this project revolved around tight time constraints and limited budget. Through custom making specific designs and sourcing second hand vintage pieces, Saar Zafrir Design managed to implement an affordable luxury concept.
