HOTEL FOX

212. Japanese Garden

Re-interpreting tradition. Simone is a great traveller and also loves the nomad life so he is happy to be working on hotel rooms that he himself would like to stay in and hopes too that his guests will wake up in them with a smile in the mornings. “This room is my own interpretation of traditional Japan seen with a modern western eye. I wanted to give a sense of freshness, a contemporary young design style, but minimal and peaceful as in the Japan of the past.”

tokidoki – Italy: Simone Legno, aka tokidoki, was born and grew up in Rome and now lives in L.A. It is not hard to see from his illustrations that he is a big fan of all things Japanese and has got the sexy girl imagery down to a “T”. “I love Japan,” he says, “I love everything from the ultra modern happy face of Shibuya to the serious magic silence of Kyoto.” tokidoki’s clients include MTV, John Galliano, Telecom Italia and the Central Narcotic Bureau of Singapore(!).
