The neo-Renaissance building of Park Hotel at Laidoner square in Viljandi Old Town was built in 1910 as a hotel by Andres Ormesson, an Estonian businessman. Unfortunately, over the years the hotel had fallen into a state of disrepair until the building was acquired by its current owners at auction in 2018.
To enact this modernisation project they called on Estonian architecture firm KAOS architects while they kept the building’s beautiful exterior true to its historical look, the inside of the hotel was almost completely reimagined.
Eumar adding a touch of style to the bathrooms
To ensure that the very highest aesthetic standards were carried through every part of the refurbishment, KAOS called on Eumar to deliver our signature mix of functionality and design excellence to the guest bathrooms.
As hotel manager Kristjan Saar says: “Park Hotel in Viljandi is an excellent example of the successful cooperation between clients, builders and architects. The original architecture is skilfully integrated with contemporary interior solutions. I’m glad to say that people often visit the hotel out of mere curiosity and we have thus acquired many new customers and cooperation partners. The character of the building definitely supports our daily work environment.”
We are extremely proud to have contributed to this amazing project. The project was the winner of the Cultural Endowment of Estonia in architecture/restoration/reconstruction in 2019 and also won the Estonian Association of Interior Architects annual award 2019.
