Swedish design agency, Stylt, and Niehku Mountain Villa, was yesterday awarded the UNESCO Prix Versailles for the word’s best hotel design. The small Lapland venue fought off stiff competition from rivals in Oman, Brazil, Malaysia, the USA and China. Niehku is the first Scandinavian entry to win the UNESCO award.
Carl-Henrik Lagnefors is the new CEO for the award-winning design and concept agency, Stylt Trampoli. With a past from the interior as well as the advertising world, he will lead Stylt's work in the global hospitality marketplace.
Award winning Swedish design and concept agency, Stylt, has broken all their previous competition records. The Gothenburg based company has received no less than 17 nominations in five of the world’s most prominent hotel and restaurant design competitions for 2018.
It was a double gold for Stylt this week when the prestigious AHEAD in London met to decide the winners of the outstanding new hotel experience in Europe this year. There was tough competition, but the Swedish design agency won two of the 14 categories.
For the first time ever, not one but two Stylt projects have gone through to the shortlist stage of the international design competition Restaurant & Bar Design Awards.
