In the case of the Three Corners Downtown Hotel, it was clear from the outset that the aim was not to evoke a classic, bourgeois hotel atmosphere. The interior design concept for the hotel, located in the immediate vicinity of the Basilica, was created by interior designer Csilla Kelemen, who consciously envisioned a contemporary, urban interior.

The basic principle of Three Corners hotels is that each unit has its own image and concept. The Downtown Hotel is aimed at guests who are not looking for a historic atmosphere, but want to stay in a clean, modern, urban environment. The entire interior had to be adapted to this.

The building’s characteristics as a starting point

The building itself played a key role in the design process. It is an office building constructed in the 1980s, whose structure and proportions would not have lent themselves to a classic hotel style. Csilla Kelemen’s concept therefore did not conceal these characteristics, but accepted them and used them as a starting point to create an honest, contemporary interior design world.

This approach naturally led to the use of designer furniture and clean lines.

Design that is not ostentatious

The aim for the Downtown Hotel was not to create a flashy design hotel. Instead, furniture and interior elements were selected that are distinctive in their own right, appearing almost sculptural in the space, yet understated and timeless. The emphasis was on simple forms, well-chosen proportions, and conscious use of materials. Solutions that will work in the long term.

Coninvest’s role: a partner in thinking

In this project, Coninvest was not only involved as a supplier, but also as an active thinking partner in the implementation of the interior design concept. The task was not to apply a single style or furniture family, but to fill the space with furniture that matched the designers’ ideas, had a unique character, and was still suitable for public use. Coninvest’s flexibility was key: where a striking design element was needed, unique pieces were used; elsewhere, functionality and load-bearing capacity dominated. In all cases, the goal was for the furniture to be a natural part of the concept, not a compromise.

Contemporary look, designed for hotel use

Although the interior is light and modern, hotel operation considerations were always in the background. The selected furniture was installed with a durable structure designed for intensive use, so the design did not compromise durability.

A conscious city hotel

The Three Corners Downtown Hotel is a hotel that knows exactly who it is for. It does not try to compete with the historic world of the neighborhood, but speaks with its own contemporary voice. In this concept, interior design, furnishings, and functionality all point in the same direction. For Coninvest, this project is further confirmation that good interior design collaboration is based on shared thinking, which ultimately results in a coherent, functional space.
