Casa Telmo, a new Ofelia Place that inspires us when decorating

This summer I had a crush on Menorca. This island transmits the essence of the Mediterranean style, with its slow life, focused on giving prominence to the little things in life. No wonder so many architects, interior designers and artists have decided to settle here. Not only because of its beauty but also because the houses in the historical centre of Mahón and Ciutadella are authentic jewels. In them it is easy to stay, disconnect or even find inspiration to decorate the home. Casa Telmo is a good example of this. It has a very particular aesthetic thanks to its respect for the past and its eclectic and very personal style. I couldn't like it more!
 
This old English-style manor house was conceived by Quintana Partners. This studio will be familiar to you because they were also in charge of designing La Bionada, another boutique hotel, located on the Costa Brava, which I told you about a few months ago. The design concept of this unique accommodation revolves around Sir Telmo, hence its name, a fictional explorer who travelled the world before discovering this enchanting island. Consequently, its only 5 rooms represent a stop on his itinerary, ranging from an African hut to a rustic British country house. Thus, each has a different and distinct personality.

Every corner has been delicately designed. As I walk through its different rooms, I find framed photos, paintings, antique furniture and curious decorative objects, as if it were a family home. Not like the impersonal and neutral hotel rooms. I can assure you that you can breathe a close and extremely cozy atmosphere.

One of the things that most attracted me to its interior design was that the structural elements and most of the noble materials have been respected and recovered. The glasswork on the doors, the original woodwork, the marés (limestone extracted from Minorcan quarries) coexist with terracotta tiles and heavy oak beams, which serve as a backdrop for vintage furniture acquired in flea markets and antique shops in Spain and Europe. It all makes its fresh, quirky aesthetic extend to the charming common areas, which comprise elegantly designed living and dining areas, an intimate gym and a small, whitewashed courtyard. This latter is, without a doubt, my favourite spot for alfresco dining and informal gatherings. So bright and inviting that I can't help but imagine myself enjoying long after-dinner meals or reading a book.

As you can see, it has all the elements for this hotel to have entered my list of charming guesthouses. Its owners, just like me, value simple things, but with soul. For this reason, any of its rooms would be enough for me to spend a long time. If you want to transfer this feeling to your home, do not miss this selection of items to get a warm and personal style.
