Germany: JOI-Design has won the Interior Design Company of the Year, Europe for 2017 in the Luxury Travel Guide’s Hospitality Management Awards.
European interior designers were nominated by industry professionals to be shortlisted for the award. Hamburg-based JOI-Design, which was behind the Mercedes-Benz Living @ Fraserserviced apartments in London and Singapore among other projects, was chosen as winner by Luxury Travel Guide’s in-house jury for “its scope of beautiful, high quality projects and work to advance the hospitality industry”.
Peter Joehnk founded interior architecture studio JOI-Design in 1984, and alongside his business partner and wife Corinna Kretschmar-Joehnk, the duo has grown the Hamburg-based practice into “one of Europe’s leading creators of refined and luxurious interiors for high-end, privately owned and independently operated boutique hotels as well as branded luxury groups”.
The pair have co-authored numerous hospitality design reference books and recently launched Products by JOI-Design, their product design division exploring creative partnerships with furniture, lighting, carpeting and wallpaper manufacturers.
“We are delighted to be recognised as a leader amongst Europe’s hospitality interior design studios,” they said. “Our team is passionate about creating luxurious designs that immerse guests in comfort and style, and we look forward to bringing our sense of European aesthetics to other continents around the globe.”
