Making The Most of Your Living Space (Available Now)
With the home being the most important place one spends time, maximizing the space allotted is key, and this was an important factor in Celebrity Beyond’s accommodations’ design. Led by world-renowned designer Kelly Hoppen CBE, Beyond’s contemporary staterooms and suites feature fresh color palettes and carefully curated design details that take inspiration from Kelly’s signature style philosophy - a subtle fusion of East meets West with clean lines and neutral tones. Through varying textures, lighting, form and furniture, each room has been designed as if it were in a luxury home - comfortable enclaves with the intimacy of an inviting and indulgent urban apartment, easily translating to home design inspiration. The design blurs the boundaries between indoor and outdoor, creating the feeling of additional space.
