Volkswagon has long since been the car of the new generation. the hippies, the yuppies, or the yuppy-puppies (read, today's new urban hipster), VW has been a car that is driving them to a new world, of discovery, and bringing their ideology to the world....
That is why it fits that they are behind Project Fox....It's really cool. It started out with the designing of the new Fox 21. Which took to the road a couple years ago. But as part of the launch VW sponsored the creation of Hotel Fox in Copenhagen. It has 61 rooms, and 21 artists were commissioned to create each of the spaces as an individual environment/installation. It's pretty awesome. Similar to the hotel at the Galdstone in Toronto, or the Hotel du Petit Moulin in Paris.

However, unlike these spaces, this was designed by strictly visual artists, with no prior experience in Interior Design. The result is quite amazing. They think so too, they also think so about the experience of its creation, as you can see in the video found on the hotels website....Finally, the hotel has given new chefs reign over its kitchen, and thus the hotel resto is home to some of the most creative and unique culinary displays on the planet... it's all new, and all available to the public.
I really need to get there... and stay in as many of the rooms as possible.
