Klotild Palace | Eszter Radnóczy

As part of the renovation concept for Klotild Palace, este’r partners developed an interior proposal for the building’s monumental covered courtyard — a historic atrium serving both as a circulation space and as a defining internal volume of the property. The aim was to introduce a contemporary design gesture that would respect the character of the heritage setting while enhancing its spatial presence.

The concept was centred around a large-scale suspended installation made of Kriskadecor’s metal chain system, extending through several levels of the atrium as a luminous, semi-transparent architectural layer. More than a decorative feature, the installation was designed to shape the experience of the space — softening the scale of the vertical void, filtering light, and creating a refined sense of rhythm, depth, and movement.

Known for its versatility and sculptural quality, Kriskadecor is an internationally recognised architectural material that allows for sophisticated spatial interventions in hospitality and public interiors. In this concept, it became the key element in establishing a subtle dialogue between the building’s historic identity and a distinctly contemporary design language.
