Founded in Zurich almost a decade ago, Soeder has gained a steadily growing demographic of in-the-know consumers both home and abroad with a wide range of textile and care products. In the latter category falls a quirky collaboration with Hôtel Amour, the French boutique hospitality chain helmed by cult artist Mr A a.k.a André Saraiva and seasoned hospitality entrepreneur Thierry Costes. Sharing the same adventurous focus, love for well-designed quality products, and last but not least, meaningful experiences, the two entities joined forces to create a fancy soap bottle. The design of this limited-edition Soeder x Hôtel Amour collaborative product flaunts key motifs of the Hôtel Amour brand and the latest addition to to Soeder‘s soap range—Wermut Negroni. Made entirely from natural ingredients, such as saponified, cold-pressed oils from organic farming, wheat protein and honey, the soap is inspired by the iconic Negroni cocktail and oozes nocturnal debauchery. The Soeder x Hôtel Amour soap is not only available at the Soeder stores in Zurich, Basel and Bern, but also at all and three Hôtel Amour properties in Paris and Nice, and Le Bon Marché department store in Paris. Not residing anywhere near any of the aforementioned establishments? No worries, a purchase online is also possible.
Publishers Note
Just to be clear – superfuture® is a design blog and not a political commentator. No surprise there. The scope of our content has always been global and borderless, however that can often mean covering projects in countries where we will not agree with the politics or actions of those countries. In a world that’s as screwed up as ever right now, the focus of our support is to those designers, architects and other creatives who aim to make the world a more liveable one – as opposed to people that try their hardest to destroy it. So if a project hits our desk and we like it based on its design credentials, we may choose to publish regardless of its location or creators nationality. superfuture® has always been inclusive and hopes for all current wars, aggression, violence, hate and extremism to end.
