Casa Camper
Fernando Amat, owner of Spain’s housewares boutique Vinçon, and architect Jordi Tió created the 25-suite Casa Camper for the bohemian Spanish shoemaker. Whimsical touches like hammocks and fire engine–red walls temper strict minimalist interiors. Guest rooms—none of which face the street—are divided by a hallway into two spaces, one for sleeping and one for lounging. Guests appreciate the complimentary healthy snacks and the central location in the lively Raval district, situated between the Ramblas and the contemporary art museum, MACBA. With its foolproof design sensibility and recipe for stylish comfort, Camper proves that footwear and hotels really do have a lot in common.
