A new inspirational space: Estorio launches its pop art concept

Astonishing. Charismatic. Bold. Entertaining. Introducing the concept of a new apartment designed by Eszter Radnóczy and the team of este’r partners as a continuation of the Estorio showroom. The extraordinary apartment was based on a pop art style, it shakes you up and spins you around, it’s a whole new approach to the metropolitan milieu.

“From the very beginning, the Estorio showroom was a unique, creative space and an inspiring venue: our aim was to show what happens when we design without a client, for our own pleasure, with our imagination running wild and boldly combining design brands and ideas we believe in,” explains interior designer, Eszter Radnóczy. “The goal is still the same: to create a space for our highly sophisticated clients that represents the highest aesthetic standards and quality in every detail.”

The impressive design solutions are once again provided by Estorio’s partners: the showroom, opened in 2022, has already introduced and represents nearly 30 international design brands, mainly Italian, Dutch and German ones, to Hungary.

From the moment you enter, the stunning red terrazzo tiles create a classic atmosphere in the entrance hall and the deep blue color is inviting you into the home. The unique barisol print attracts the eye while the giraffe of Queeboo Giraffe in Love is playing with the light in the light shaft.

The centerpiece of the kitchen is Valcucine’s deep blue kitchen, which can easily be transformed into a closed design box. Erba Italia’s dining table, made of small gold leaves, is supported by animal legs reflecting the mood of the apartment. The playfulness is enhanced by the Artemide designer lamp floating above the table.

The sand-colored living room, with its soft, rounded shapes and lights, relax the eye; it is visually a place that is perfect for recreation. The living room is spacious and the design emphasizes the bourgeois apartment’s ample space with the Italian Erba Italia sofa taking center stage.

The Italian-made Foglie d’Oro wood flooring provides an exciting contrast to the graphic designer’s ‘wild game’ rug, which sits beautifully at the foot of Black Tie’s blue bed. Behind the bedroom there is a hidden wardrobe, tailor-made by the Italian brand, Cosy International.

For designers, pop art means to create an experience, not in a museum-like way, but to add a sense of playfulness with surprising contrasts, bold colors and to elevate familiar objects to a new level. Estorio’s new pop art-style concept is designed for everyone who is looking for a high quality, inspiring and creative home.

Téli séta Szentendrén Radnóczy Eszterrel

Évértékelés helyett, új terveink bemutatkozását megelőzve idén csendes, téli sétára hívjuk partnereinket, barátainkat, az este’r partners olvasóit. Az adventi Szentendrét Radnóczy Eszter belsőépítésszel jártuk végig – következzenek az ő szavai a képgaléria kísérőjeként.

„A téli Szentendre számomra az állandóságot, a nyugalmat és a hagyományt jelenti. Ahogy a harangszó, a macskakövek, úgy a Betlehem és a kis karácsonyi vásár minden évben a karácsonyi időszakra hangol, mióta csak emlékszem – és ez így van jól. Az adventi Szentendre meghittsége értékes és hagyományőrző, de minden évben tartogat egy-egy új kellemes meglepetést. Ilyenkor, a karácsony közeledtével minden évben sok ügyféltalálkozónk, lezárandó munkánk van, ezek között pedig jól esik Szentendre csendessége.”

A Főtér könyvesboltja számomra szintén a változatlanság helye és amikor idejövök, már előre tudom, hogy ismerőssel fogok találkozni. Szeretek ide belépni, átfutni az újdonságokat, egy-egy új kötettel hazatérni.

A téli Szentendréhez hozzátartozik a forró csokoládé, a biztos tippem ehhez az Édeni Édességek Boltja. A neve mindent elárul: édes, forró, igazi téli hangulatot hozó italokat kóstolhatunk itt. A reggeli szemes kávémat is itt szerzem be a legszívesebben.

Az adventi bóklászásnak nem csak az adventi vásár a része, hanem sok kis helyi bolt meglátogatása is. Kedvenceimhez tartozik Nagy Sándor képkeretező műhelye, ahol a különleges képkeretek és képrestaurálás mellett rengeteg inspiráló művészeti kelléket is be lehet szerezni a karácsony előtti kreatív készülődéshez. A bolt szomszédságában található az Oringó Ékszerműhely, ahol már több kedvenc ékszerem járt restaurálásra. Emellett nagyon szép saját kollekciója van a boltnak, ami tökéletes karácsonyi ajándék.

Szentendre a galériák városa, mi, itt lakók pedig pezsgünk ebben. A galériákban keverednek a művészeti és az iparművészeti alkotások, mindig történik valami izgalmas, újító is. Bár ez a tél az intézmények átmeneti bezárása miatt egy kicsit csendesebb, Erdész László galériája az ünnepnapok kivételével nyitva tart, illetve a Czóbel Múzeum, majd januártól a Vajda Múzeum is szép programok várja a művészetkedvelőket. Ide is szívesen betérek és mindig új impulzusokkal távozom.

Egy hosszú séta után családdal vagy társaságban mindenképp kívánkozik egy jó beszélgetés egy pohár sör vagy bor mellett egy olyan helyen, ahol mindig barátsággal fogadnak. Mindezt az Adria Caféban találtuk meg, ahova gyakran és szívesen járunk.

A karácsony és az azt követő napok nekem a családról szólnak: otthonunkban és az este’r partners otthonában, a szentendrei Vadászház épületében működő irodánkban is művészet vesz minket körül. Az ünnepek alatti megnyugvás alkalmából idő jut ilyenkor hosszabban is gyönyörködni, gondolkodni egy-egy képen vagy műtárgyon.

Az évről évre elővett, szép régi tárgyak nekem az ünnepet, az állandóságot jelentik. Karácsonykor a gyerekeim is hazatérnek, ilyenkor megtelik fénnyel, élettel, régi-új családi történetekkel a ház.

Minden kedves ismerősünknek, barátainknak hasonlóan szép pillanatokat, meghittséget és boldog, áldott ünnepeket kívánok!

Szeretettel: Eszter

Budapest showroom opening: Estorio is the new home of international designer brands

Interior designer Eszter Radnóczy and the este’r partners studio opened their first showroom, Estorio – home of designer brands: in the apartment on Dalszínház Street, overlooking the Opera House, more than thirty international design brands are displayed and arranged according to a unique concept. The genre-defining showroom is a meeting point, interior design pilot project, creative showroom, turn-key real estate development concept and the regional debut of international design brands.

“Estorio is a complete professional fulfillment for us designers: we have been able to enjoy our freedom and the unlimited flow of our team’s creativity in this apartment. Over the past decades, we have built many personal and professional international relationships through este’r partners, our interior design studio in Budapest and Milan, and I have always dreamed of bringing together these wonderful brands, unique and high-quality Italian, French, Hungarian, Dutch and German designers. With Estorio, not only will our concept be realized, but also Europe’s premium brands will be brought together in an inspiring space – I’m proud that our first location is here, in Budapest” – says Eszter Radnóczy, interior designer and founder of Estorio.

Estorio is now opening its doors to more than thirty international brands, some of which have not been available in Hungary or the products could not be seen in showrooms. These include Kreoo, a manufacturer of washstands, bathtubs and tables that combine traditional Italian marble with modern technology and can be interpreted as a masterpiece of applied art; Foglie D’Oro, a manufacturer of elegant, unusual geometric or walnut parquet flooring with marquetries or stone inlays; OliveLab, an Italian design start-up with unique lamps, and Cosy International, a manufacturer of high-quality glass and aluminium wardrobe furniture.

Other prestigious brands will also be available through Estorio: fabulous textiles from Rubelli, founded in 1858, products of premium wallpaper manufacturer Dutch Walltextile Company, based in Amsterdam, stunning textiles from Italian ZavaLuce, a dazzling and innovative lighting manufacturer, gorgeous fabrics of Flukso or Missoni Home, elegant and stylish furniture from Black Tie, or products from Valcucine, the high-tech kitchen technology giant with a sustainable approach.

Some of the brands will be available for the first time in the Central European region, as exclusive partners of Estorio – they will bring the Hungarian design community, architects, interior designers, decorators and property developers one step closer to the products of selected design brands, and to the turn-key concepts. The concept is supported by este’r partners’ decades of design and implementation experience and its international network of contacts across Europe – combined with outstanding design creativity.

As Gábor Papp, Estorio’s commercial manager, describes it: “Estorio is more than a showroom: we promise to offer a 360-degree service, from finding the perfect real estate to choosing the door handle of the home, we bring everything to life with the highest level of design solutions, including turn-key implementation on demand. The showroom next to the Opera House is just one possible realization of the values that come together in Estorio – the possibilities are endless and the next step is up to our clients.”

Eszter Radnóczy adds: “Estorio is a constantly changing, exciting online and offline space that evolves together with the culture and our partners; already after the first concept has been realized, we are making alternative versions of the same space accessible on our website, using 3D renderings. We’d like to show how different selections, the coordination of product groups or the customization of various elements can create unique atmospheres, how the overall picture can change as a result of combinations, and how the expertise and unique approach of our design team can be brought together again and again in a common space.”

The first showroom in Budapest reflects the atmosphere of the Opera House, which reopened in March. Designed with soft lights, fresh colors, elegant lines, playing with metals and mirrors – all of the highest quality and without compromise. The venue is in a typical Budapest location, it’s a stunning residential apartment on Dalszínház Street overlooking Andrássy Avenue, which not only offers a view of the Opera House from its balcony, but the designers have also created reflections in the furniture and surfaces to be able to show different glimpses of one of the most beautiful works of Hungarian architecture at all times of the day.

The team at Estorio is unstoppable: Eszter Radnóczy’s team will soon continue the unforgettable fusion of concept and design brands in a new European location.

Estorio is open in a showroom concept, please book an appointment.

Colorful and bold: Supersalone in Milan

An extraordinary exhibition in a new concept. After one and a half years of postponement, Milan’s renowned architect and urban planner Stefano Boeri (designer of the Vertical Gardens, Giardini Verticali and other buildings) has come up with the idea of a furniture and design exhibition to be held in September at a different time from usual. Interior designer Eszter Radnóczy tells us about this year’s Milan Design Week.

This year the organizers’ idea was to show the latest products of the manufacturers in a museum-like concept, in order to reduce costs and increase transparency. I spoke to several of our partners before the exhibition, they were excited and a little disappointed. Disappointed, because there was little time to prepare, and many did not even want to participate, saying that it was risky, there would be few visitors, it could be canceled at the last minute due to unexpected consequences of the virus, and there would be no opportunity to show the full range of products.

I arrived at the venue with curiosity and left happy after a day’s visit.

The event was transparent, with companies lined up neatly one after the other, mostly with strong messages and stands that trigger curiosity. Creativity could also be seen in such a small space of a few hundred meters and the distinctive characteristics of the manufacturers were recognizable. Of course, anyone familiar with the vast and endless exhibition at the Salone del Mobile was certainly not expecting this. However, the latest product, an important message, a creative idea about the product, its appearance or its quality, quickly found its space.

There was no need to register to visit the stands, no need to look for the owner or representative, they would just sit on the sofa on display or behind the counter. I enjoyed this democratic approach: I could sit next to them, have a conversation and everyone seemed more relaxed and considerate than usual. Surely this concept favors professional visitors, previous knowledge of products and manufacturers is necessary to understand the different exhibition.

Milan Design Week is not just about the exhibition at Fiera, but also about the venues outside. This week, design dominates the city more than usual. The permanent showrooms will offer special programs and installations to visitors. Smaller manufacturers, who do not have showrooms in Milan, will organize joint events.

The “big ones” are looking for venues where the space in itself offers a great experience. A multitude of palazzos welcome visitors, where the old and antique meet the new and innovative. Milan is colorful, very colorful and, as always, bold. Everything is bright, shiny, too big, too small, rough and soft. Contrasts come together in a surprising proportion and become a defining experience.

Now to some of my experiences in detail:

Besides Italian design, I’m in love with French creativity. I love French design because of its eclecticism and its fantastic handling of geometry with curves and when it combines nature with technique. It’s truly fabulous. The Hermés exhibition in the Brera district was just like that. A village decorated with colorful geometric patterns, impulsive interior stages set within huge rustic clay walls, an experience of objects, space and color, the concept that combines tradition with innovation which is linked to Charlotte Macaux Perleman.

The French Institute in Milan is a beautiful building in itself, with a monastery courtyard in the centre, near the Basilica of Sant Ambroggio. At Fuori Salone, we had the opportunity to see designer Piere Nigro’s furniture in collaboration with Mobilier national. The Armadillo collection of furniture allowed the manufacturer to demonstrate virtuosity in woodworking. The exhibition presented the structure and logic of small pieces of furniture made up of solid wooden rectangles. The other product, the Hémicycle seating range, was produced in collaboration with the French manufacturer Ligne Roset, who was involved in its design and upholstery. The furniture’s metal frame and structure showed the creative technology in pieces.

The Nilufar Gallery in Via della Spiga and the Nilufar Depo always has surprises in store. Nina Yashar presents large-scale, eclectically selected projects and unique pieces, which she discovers through meticulous research and further develops with designers.

Entering the monumental atrium of the industrial building, we can admire the sculptures of Pietro Consagra Matacubi, born in 1920 and part of the largest international contemporary collections. The building’s stage is dedicated to the so-called Odyssey exhibition, where Andrés Reisinger’s first Italian show was held.

The designer talks about the relationship between the digital and the real world through a dialogue between the furniture and the projected image.

Last but not least, the installation called Jungle, by Khaled El Mays, is a work of beauty and sustainability.

This was 2020: interview with Eszter Radnóczy

How was this year for este’r partners, what were the goals and the keywords in 2020?

Despite the difficulties, we have had a successful year. This year we celebrated the 15th anniversary of este’r partners which we still managed to celebrate together with our clients and partners before the restrictions. On this occasion, we looked back on our 15 years of continuous development in profile, size and quality of the work and the increase in the number of colleagues. Our results and successes are due to a serious and loyal teamwork, thanks to my colleagues. The above is proven by our returning and expanding clientele, we are proud to maintain an honest, confidential and creative relationship with them. When I think of keywords for 2020, the followings come to my mind: adaptation, teamwork and a positive vision.

How did you adapt to this year’s new situation and what were the lessons learned?

We were doing our best at home office as well. It has been proven that our greatest strength is working together, reinforcing and supporting each other, making optimal use of and assigning individual abilities. I am very proud that we did not stop for a moment. After a deep breath, we moved forward with our tasks with new ideas and constructive solutions.

What were the most significant projects this year?

We have reached the final phase of a large hotel project, the Emerald Residence, which we have also professionally supported in the construction. Another hotel project on Andrássy Avenue is also being implemented, in which we are also effectively participating. Unfortunately, hotel projects will have to wait due to the uncertain situation, but we hope to resume the started investments next year. We are pleased that we have had many clients from the private sector as well, a lot of beautiful work has been done in this area too and a lot is in the completion phase.

You have started a new direction: in 2020 the este’r partners presented the selections called The Collection. What kind of knowledge, creativity, innovation did you put in these catalogues?

The final phase of our work has always been to support our customers in the furnishing of apartments and restaurants while, in addition to the planning, we ensure the procurement of products which is based on our wide foreign supplier base. Our own selection, The Collection, is a demonstration of this knowledge and activity. Our customers know our complex service, the aim of the new catalogue was to make our company more widely known.

What do you expect the most next year, where is the company heading?

We are going to relax by starting to plan new projects from the beginning of January, we are really looking forward to spring. We hope that this dynamic is not going to change and all of our partners can stay enthusiastic and optimistic. Of course, we always have Plan B while we work on Plan A, but this detail should remain a surprise for the new year.

Finally, a more personal question: how do you spend the holidays this year?

In peace and quiet with the family, finally taking a little rest, which always means coming up with new ideas.

Este’r partners introducing its 2021 collection: let the most fabulous pieces of Italian design move into your living room

Eszter Radnóczy, chief designer and her team este’r partner present their latest collection called Cosy Living 2021; this time the focus is on the living room. Comfortable seating, special accessories and soft pillows: the team of este’r partners’ interior design studio, which has a strong trade relationship, brings the best of Italian design so even the most elegant living room can be re-tuned with confidence.

Eszter Radnóczy and her fifteen-year-old interior design studio opened a partner office in Milan last year with renowned Italian architect, Stefano Napolitani. Italian partnerships, exhibitions, fairs and personal visits to manufactories have long been part of the everyday life of este’r partners: this helps showing their customers and clients first-hand the latest designs and quality solutions of Italian design.

The current high-quality catalogue focuses on exclusiveness and long-lasting, high-class interior design solutions as well as a high level of aesthetics, combined with the specialities of este’r partners: fun, courage and unique style. An indispensable part of autumn evenings is the Italian cinema, the Cinema Paradiso with its capital letters. This time, the design team aligned parts of the collection with classic film titles. The works of Fellini, Tornatore, Pasolini or Bertolucci are perfect for the cold evenings we spend at home.

Parts of the collection are named after Italian films: Especially on Sunday, Everybody’s Fine, La Dolce Vita and Unknown Woman can be our perfect companions for the cooler evenings. As the holidays approach, este’r partners would also like to introduce two mini catalogues: Winter Lights’ beautiful lanterns bring magical holiday lights into your home, and Little Surprises collects unique design items to help you find the perfect gift ideas.

The collections can be found on the website of este’r partners: esterpartners.com
