PENTHOUSE SANDS, HAMBURG

Penthouse Sands was curated as a study in balance and stillness, inspired by the client’s connection to Asia. A calm spectrum of sandy neutrals, soft jade and muted powder tones creates a grounded, meditative atmosphere.

Materiality defines the interior. Cream travertine, hand-woven rattan and light oak introduce warmth and tactility, while clay-plastered walls and ceilings form a seamless, softened envelope. Surfaces merge subtly, allowing the space to feel cohesive and quietly restrained.

The furnishing concept blends pieces brought by the client with carefully sourced vintage finds and newly commissioned custom designs - resulting in a space that feels layered and personal rather than staged.

At the center, a custom-made dining table in a hand-applied spatula finish echoes the texture of the surrounding walls and ceilings. Above it, bespoke alabaster spheres from Contain, a Mallorcan Design Studio, are mounted on custom brass tubes and resembling small glowing moons. The natural translucency of alabaster creates a soft, almost spiritual luminosity, adding depth and quiet energy to the dining area. In the living space, a custom daybed upholstered in Pierre Frey terry fabric introduces softness and sculptural presence.

The result is minimal yet warm. Collected yet composed.
