King Roselli Architetti, founded in 1997, is an architecture
practice operating at various scales of project that extend
from landscape to product design. Most of our work to date
has been in the hospitality sector in the design of new-build
hotels and holiday resorts.
An important exception is the Lateran University Library in
San Giovanni in Laterano, Rome. For this project we received
the ANCE-InArch national prize for best new building 2008
and a special mention in the The Gold Medal Prize for Architecture
given by the MilanTriennale in 2009.
Each project has been taken as an opportunity to explore
wider architectural themes outside the strict confines of programme,
budget, building regulations and technology.
An open-ended working method has been developed which
allows us to tackle a wide variety of programme and type of
project. The design of a hotel building in a landscape or urban
setting, or a refreshment kiosk or a mass-produced chair are
all of equal interest to us. We have worked extensively on
the interiors of existing hotels and the public spaces associated
with them. Many of the product design projects, be they
contract furniture, carpets or bathroom fittings, arose from
interior design schemes we were developing.
All of our built work to date is in Italy, in Rome or Milan. The
Club Med Holiday resort will go on site in Sicily. Outside Italy,
we have completed the planning and landscaping of a new
tropical resort on the island of Langkawi in Malaysia, with the
design of several villa types, a hillside village, retail spaces,
public spaces, integrated in an extensive landscape project
running through the complex. More recently Qatar Foundation
has commissioned us as concept architects for a large hotel
in Education City, Doha due for completion in 2018.
In this portfolio we have chosen the more important built
projects realised, competitions and work currently on the
drawing boards.
