In 2023 we worked with Hungarian skincare brand Omorovicza to design their first London flagship in Mayfair.
Arranged over two floors the space features two treatment rooms, relaxation area, a courtyard and boutique.
Stephen and Margaret de Heinrich d’Omorovicza founded Omorovicza in 2006, drawing inspiration from the Rác thermal bath in Budapest. Mr de Heinrich de Omorovicza’s family commissioned architect Miklós Ybl to build the spa in the 1800s, an addition to the Ottoman baths constructed in the 1500s (pictured) which provided a foundation for the design of London institute.
The space was designed to reflect Omorovicza’s provenance and products as much as possible. Copper in its various forms can be found in both the product and the interior scheme, this is the type of holistic approach we were keen to explore. The mineral rich ingredients used in the products are also reflected in the other interior finishes such as the travertine, clay plaster and terracotta. Where possible we’ve used natural materials in their raw state. The variation and layering of these elements somehow feel intuitive as it relates to skincare.
