As the go-to source for what's hot in the world of color, it was only a matter of time before Pantone put their insight to use on a large-scale design project of their own. Introducing Pantone Hotel Brussels, a 59-room boutique hotel designed by Belgian interior designer Michel Penneman and Belgian architect Olivier Hannaert.
Set on Avenue Louise, a stretch of the city that some have called the Champs Elysées or Fifth Avenue of Brussels, Pantone Hotel also features the largest collection of Pantone Universe products (for sale in the lobby shop) from stationary and bags to their signature Pantone chip mugs.

Each of the hotel's seven floors is based on a Pantone color palette with rooms designed to evoke (or compliment) guests moods. There's "Daring/Fiery" (Pantone 200 C, above) and "Cheerful/Warm" (Pantone 1215 C, below), along with rooms for the earthy-rich, vibrant-intense, captivating-esteemed-silky, fresh-eager and tranquil-aquatic-exhilarating among you.
Color themes are set against a stark, white backdrop for maximum effect with matching photo installations in each room created by Belgian photographer Victor Levy.
