Hotel Costes Collection x Liaigre: Redefining Luxury and Timeless Elegance
In the world of luxury design, few collaborations capture the essence of refined living like the Hotel Costes Collection x Liaigre. This capsule collection, born from the creative synergy between hotelier Jean-Louis Costes and designer Christian Liaigre, represents the pinnacle of sophisticated, understated luxury. The partnership began in 2015 when Liaigre was entrusted with the redesign of the historic Hotel Lotti, now part of the "Le Costes" brand in Paris.
Hotel Costes, located near the Tuileries Garden and Place Vendôme, has long been a destination for the world’s elite. When Jean-Louis Costes aimed to unify Hotel Costes, Hotel Lotti, and a third property on Rue du Mont Thabor, he turned to Liaigre to encapsulate the timeless Parisian elegance that defines the Costes brand. Liaigre’s minimalist aesthetic provided a striking contrast to the ornate, theatrical interiors originally designed by Jacques Garcia in 1995. His work on the hotels created spaces of serenity and refinement, drawing inspiration from neo-classical Parisian mansions and modern lofts.
The Hotel Costes Collection x Liaigre capsule collection, curated from this collaboration, brings together iconic furniture pieces designed exclusively for the hotel. Each item reflects the Parisian and cosmopolitan spirit of Le Costes, embodying Liaigre’s aesthetic philosophy of clean lines, simplicity, and impeccable craftsmanship.
The Castiglione Sofa is a standout piece, designed for comfort and relaxation. Available in straight and corner configurations, the sofa features button-tufted leather and tone-on-tone stitching. The wirebrushed wood base with a charbon finish adds an understated elegance, making it a focal point in Costes' intimate spaces.
Another notable item is the Carrousel Side Table, with its sleek, nature-inspired design. The high-gloss black lacquer finish adds a dynamic play of light, creating movement and grace in any room. Paired with the Mont-Thabor Armchair, a leather masterpiece resting on an Oak, wirebrushed base, the collection exudes both comfort and style.
The Rivoli Reading Lamp rounds out the collection with its timeless design and practical functionality. The adjustable black patinated brass lamp offers optimal lighting, perfect for reading in the hotel’s suites and common areas. The Cambon Chair—an elegant combination of Oak, wirebrushed, woven straw, and leather—reinterprets classicism with a modern twist, making it an ideal piece for both dining and lounging spaces.
The Hotel Costes Collection x Liaigre is more than a furniture line—it’s a celebration of the art of living. Each piece is a testament to luxury, craftsmanship, and timeless design. For those who appreciate the finer things, this collection offers the opportunity to bring a piece of the iconic Hotel Costes into their own home, where Parisian elegance and Liaigre’s minimalist touch meet to create an elevated experience.
