A Design Dialogue Between Past and Present
A22’s interiors celebrate Riga’s Art Nouveau legacy through the restoration of its Art Nouveau elements, including ornate moldings and arches, combined with sleek modern minimalism. Each of the 20 individually designed rooms balances tranquility and luxury, with custom furnishings and carefully curated artwork enhancing the aesthetic. Soft hues, such as creams and deep blues, complement plush fabrics like velvet and linen, while large windows bring in ample natural light, creating an inviting and serene atmosphere.
The hotel’s bathrooms, designed for indulgence, feature marble finishes, brass accents, and spa-inspired rain showers. Every detail—from the ambient lighting to the artisanal accessories—has been thoughtfully curated to transform these spaces into private sanctuaries.
