At Umo Art & Design, we believe that art truly comes to life when placed in a context that enhances its story. That is why we are incredibly proud of our collaboration with HORA Barneveld. They recently opened their latest project: Apartment 35. This is not just any showroom, but a carefully designed living environment that serves as a creative fusion of today’s leading design brands.
Instead of displaying collections as separate elements, HORA has opted for a thoughtful approach in which every object contributes to a shared visual narrative. Brands such as Tacchini, Gallotti&Radice and Davide Groppi are not highlighted individually here, but together form a cohesive whole. Our abstract art is incorporated as a key element, with the artworks complementing the high-quality materials and furniture perfectly.
The result is an apartment that brings to life what a well-considered space can mean for its residents. By combining fabrics from prestigious houses such as Dedar Milano and La Maison Pierre Frey with our artworks, an almost imperceptible connection is created between object and architecture. It is an invitation to experience how art and interior design reinforce one another in an atmosphere of luxury and tranquillity.
The role of art in an interior
An interior only truly comes into its own when design, materials and art come together to form a compelling whole. In Apartment 35, this principle is implemented down to the smallest detail. Our artworks, such as the Wrinkels, serve here as the finishing touch that gives the space its individual character. By choosing works with deep texture and layering, we reinforce the sense of tactility that is present throughout the apartment.
We see our contribution to this project as a confirmation of our vision of interior design. Whether it is a powerful abstract piece above a sofa or a subtle object in a corner, the right art brings balance to an eclectic mix of design brands. It is an interplay that demonstrates that art is not merely decoration, but a fundamental part of a cohesive interior.
Building a timeless interior together
For us, the collaboration with HORA Barneveld is more than just a business relationship; it is a shared passion for quality and craftsmanship. Together, we strive to create interiors that are not only attractive, but that also bring to life what good design can mean to a person. Apartment 35 is proof of that.
We remain committed to making art accessible to everyone who values a high-quality living environment. By joining forces with forward-thinking partners, we can continue to inspire you with new collections. The future of interior design lies in these collaborations, where art and furniture come together to tell a story.
