COMFORT HOTEL GRAND CENTRAL
This hotel is one step away from Oslo Central Train Station. Gilles & Cecilie Studio have painted 24 rooms in newly added wing at the hotel. The theme is travelling. Travelling in the past, now and in the future. The murals is composed by a collection of impressions and memories. G&C Studio collaborated with Mellbye Architects in Oslo to create an holistic environment and colour palette that is used both on the walls and in the furnitures and textiles.
When we travel we observe, see and record our journey. We go places just to be there in time to see the sun go down in the ocean, to see that shadow cast in a particular way on the ground, to hear the bells ring or to see the migration of birds. Each room has a unique painting composed of colour, graphic patterns, fragments of architecture, shadow and lights.
