Hotel Design Comes Home: Kor Hotel Group's Distinctive Elegance is Just One Click Away @ ShopKor.com; Kor Raises the Bar on Burgeoning Hotel-Retail Market with Signature Kelly Wearstler Designs and Luxurious Environment and Spa Collections.
One snooze proves it. The Viceroy Circadian bed isn't just a one-night indulgence, it's a daily necessity. Now you can own the plush pillow-top mattress, fine cotton linens, and duck down comforter and pillows from Kor Hotel Group's luxury shopping collection, and restore your rhythm night after night at home.
As of December 1, the Los Angeles-based arbiter of style and design now extends its boutique flair from guestrooms to guests' homes with the launch of an on-line shopping site which features three collections of hand-selected products -- from bed to bath to decor -- modeled on the signature design at Kor's renowned hotels, including Viceroy Santa Monica, Chamberlain in West Hollywood, Maison 140 in Beverly Hills and others.
From residential hotels to hotel-inspired homes, converging consumer trends are making the indulgent ease of boutique hotels shopping-cart ready. Now Kor brings its own somatic comforts to user-friendly cyberspace just in time for the holiday season: Virtual guests can shop through the web portal shopkor.com or by calling toll free at (888) 333-3441. A "Wish List" option allows consumers to request inclusion of Kor items that are not currently available through the on-line shopping collection. All Kor hotel websites also feature a new "shop" link -- you can take it with you.
Merchandise selections
Kor's three custom collections embody the boutique hotel experience. Let Kor inspire your dreams with its sumptuous Viceroy Circadian Collection of bedding, soothe your soul with Estrella Spa products and enlighten your style-sense with designer, decor originals.
Signatures Collection: Hotel Designers' Own Inspirations
Now customers can enhance their homes with a selection of decorative accessories hand-picked by Kelly Wearstler and other Kor designers. Exclusive to Kor hotels, distinctive pieces include the oversized parrot-green Italian urns in Viceroy Santa Monica's striking lobby ($1,250), the romantic blackened-metal footman's patio lanterns illuminating Viceroy Santa Monica's exterior spaces ($750) and the embossed blanc de chine gourd vases from Delfina in Santa Monica ($600).
A selection of pieces custom-designed by Kelly Wearstler for each hotel will be available as well: red Madame Butterfly headboards from Maison 140, white casper wingback chaises and green front desk chairs from Viceroy Santa Monica's lobby, and rope headboards featured at Avalon.
Environments Collection: Style in Bed and Beyond
Reluctant to check out of that plush pillow-top bed? Since guests need to go home eventually, Kor's Viceroy Circadian Bedding Collection is now available for home delivery: Signature boutique pillow-top mattress with box-spring (from $1,200), Viceroy Circadian duck-down pillows and duvet blankets (from $110) and Italian-made Egyptian cotton bed linens (sets from $225). Extend your experience beyond the bed with luxurious items like the Parliament Bath Towel Collection (sets from $42), sculpted Italian vases (from $125) and gold Sun King mirrors ($1,600).
Rituals Collection: Classic Curative Traditions
Recreate the indulgence of Viceroy Palm Springs' Estrella Spa in the home boudoir with cashmere-soft spa bathrobes, white waffle-weave shower curtains and soothing body treatments from Red Flower and Mor Cosmetics. (Prices range from $36 to $180.)
Where to buy
Like the hotel destinations that inspire it, Kor's luxury shopping collection can't be found just anywhere. These exclusive new retail products are available only through Kor Hotel Group's online catalog accessible through the portal shopkor.com, through the "shop" link within the Kor Hotel Group website (korhotelgroup.com/shop) and individual hotel sites, or toll fee at (888) 333-3441.
