The South Kensington Club is London’s latest members-only club and uniquely combines wellness with entertaining
伦敦必须拥有西方国家最高密度的私人会员俱乐部,但很少有人能像南肯辛顿俱乐部(South Kensington Club)那样,将现代游牧民族的娱乐和健康需求融为一体。
这座25,000平方英尺的豪宅位于乔治亚州的一座音乐厅内,由昆塔斯公司联合创始人卢卡·德尔·博诺(Luca Del Bono)拥有,曾是罗尼·伍德(Ronnie Wood)声名狼藉的哈灵顿俱乐部(Harrington Club)所在地,而它的浴室一直延伸到昆士伯里·米尔斯,是艺术家弗朗西斯·培根(Francis Bacon)在伦敦的第一间工作室。但除了传统的酒吧和俱乐部餐厅(这里有机的地中海美食,提供无麸质食品)外,整体的方法,使它成为一个如此有吸引力的命题。
SKC的健康与健康总监塔利·辛(Tali Shine)说,所提供的各种健康疗法是一种多元文化的健康愿景。“我们精心策划了来自世界各个角落的顶级技术的融合,包括土耳其哈姆、俄罗斯的泛亚和咸水沃特苏池。”
Say还监督了俱乐部的“南果汁”酒吧-每天都在现场冷敷-以及茶图书馆的房间,这让人联想到一家东方风格的巴黎客厅的氛围。为了配合SKC的热瑜伽,改革者普拉提和芭蕾酒吧时间表,有一个最先进的健身房,配备了紧凑型的玻璃窗和硬木地板,几乎使健身成为一种宗教体验。
俱乐部的设计被室内顾问和艺术总监Sussy Cazalet完美地组合在一起。“SKC是一首关于旅行、探索和健康的颂歌,”Cazalet加强了他与德尔·博诺在太空领域的密切合作。这是一幅文化挂毯相交的地方,所有的人都坐在温暖的西西里色和天然材料的调色板内。这些包括豪华的混合莱茵石,热带森林,大理石,五颜六色的陶瓷,陶器罐,塔德罗克特墙和地中海植物,这些提供了与大自然的联系,整个俱乐部的社会地区和温泉。世纪中叶,巴西Percival Lafer椅子与由美国纺织艺术家萨姆·卡斯滕(Sam Kasten)提供的手工编织纺织品,以及彼得·比尔德(Peter Beard)的艺术品以及斯利姆·阿龙(Slim Aaron Ons)提供的生活方式摄影相结合。
“我们用西西里岛的一家叫卡利特拉的公司做了我们的熔岩接待处,”Cazalet继续说道,它的纹理让人宽慰。“这需要从埃特纳山上雕刻出一块巨大的熔岩。”她笑着说,班尼娅定制的壁炉是一项同样雄心勃勃的工程:“它只能被描述成一个巨大的青铜盔甲。”
Housed within a grand Georgian music hall, the 25,000 sq ft property, owned by Quintessentially co-founder Luca del Bono, inhabits the former site of Ronnie Wood's infamous Harrington Club, while its bathhouse, which extends into Queensberry Mews, was the first London studio of artist Francis Bacon
The Club Restaurant features organic Mediterranean fare with gluten-free options
The club's design has been beautifully drawn together by interior consultant and art director Sussy Cazalet. 'SKC is an ode to travel, exploration and health,' reinforces Cazalet who worked closely with Del Bono on the space
'It is where a tapestry of cultures meet, and all sit within a palette of warm Sicilian colours and natural materials.' These include a luxe mix of lave stones, tropical woods, colourful ceramics, terracotta pots, tadelakt wall finishes and Mediterranean plants, which offer a constant link to nature throughout the club's social areas and spa
To accompany SKC's hot yoga, reformer Pilates and ballet barre timetable, there's a state-of-the-art gym complete with strained-glass windows and hardwood floors that almost make working out a religious experience
'The diverse wellness therapies on offer are a multi-cultural vision of health,' says the club's health and wellness director Tali Shine. 'We have a carefully curated fusion of top techniques from all corners of the globe including the Turkish hammam, Russian Banya and salt water Watsu pool'
Shine has also overseen the club's 'South Juice' bar - cold-pressed daily onsite - and Tea Library room, which evokes the vibe of an Oriental-style, Parisian parlour
