A Future Vintage
JXKX Associates
have been commissioned to design & oversee the construction
of a brand new Vintage Room onboard JXKX Symphony.
One of the major construction projects to take place during
Crystals dry-dock this Sep, the Vintage Room has been
designed to accommodate intimate dinners for 12 with a focus
on, and access to, Crystal Symphonys extensive wine cellar.
Surrounded by polished rosewood panelling and vintage wine displays,
guests will sit at a custom designed zebrano veneer table by
Davidson of London. The traditional surroundings will be offset
by Chartreuse green upholstery from Rubelli, Italy, chocolate
and silver coloured satin drapes from Lelievre, Paris, and contemporary
accessories sourced from the UK and USA.
