The Guardsman

The Guardsman

A bold, British statement of an hotel. The Guardsman, but a Guardsman off duty. Solidly British, this hotel feels like entering a private club through a discrete, grey brick entrance. It’s distinguished with all the trappings of a five-star hotel but has the air of a 21st century club, influenced by the elegance of art deco. The drapes had to be perfectly aligned due to the horizontal contrasting fabric bands across the windows.

Robena does regimental straight lines. Stripes well-earned..

Mondrian Shoreditch

Mondrian Shoreditch

The façade of the Mondrian belongs in New York, but the skyline on one side is definitely London’s own and the edgy graffiti on the other, East End cool.

We just loved working on this one, although the backache from fixing the fabric banners on the Bibo roof beams wiped a few brave smiles away in the install process. With every loop of fabric perfectly symmetrical, in perfect alignment and exactly the same length, fixing was a labour of love…

The 120 rooms and 13 suites of the old Curtain Hotel, now owned by the Reuben Brothers, sits squarely in the beating heart of London’s cultural hub. It’s a little bit New York, a little bit Tulum and a big bit cool.

Robena bust a gut on this one, racing hard towards completion on a very tight deadline to open as soon as Covid-19 restrictions lifted. Robena made good friends at the Mondrian. They know that we are there for them. In a heartbeat.

The Ned

The Ned

With 250 bedrooms and a huge range of restaurants and bars, The Ned is more of a resort than a hotel and one might not ever need to leave. Where decades combine in predominantly art deco styling with even forties detailing, it’s a place of wonder! The devil is in this one!

Fairmont Windsor

Fairmont Windsor

Fairmont’s commitment to guest experience led our client to create this new hotel set in 40 acres of stunning grounds in the beautiful and tranquil Windsor Park, less than an hour from London. What tasteful, beautiful curtains we made in understated elegance.

Mayfair Townhouse

Mayfair Townhouse

We have loved seeing all of the awards the Mayfair Townhouse has won for its amusing, interesting, luxury interiors right in the heart of London.

This is a whimsy of an hotel with the design team creating amusement and interest, inspired by the quirky ‘London Dandy’ apparel and styling.

Robena did just Dandy with the softs. Check us out!
