Residenz Hotel's rooms in Pforzheim, near the Black Forest, have recently been refurbished with Basic Collection furniture. Pforzheim was well known for its gold industry and was called the ’city of gold’, which color also appears, as an addition to pastel shades, in the decoration of the rooms. The rounded shapes and the slightly retro, yet elegant furniture fit perfectly into the sophisticated, clean style designed by Oshir Asaban.
