OMG, I think I found my favourite interior designer. Verner Panton. Worked from the 1950-s until the 1990-s, from Denmark. Absolutely splendid.

Look at those colours, shapes, lamps, ceilings, floors, walls, chairs... He really thought of everything. And it screams retro.

I can't even decide is it retro or futuristic. If I ever own a hotel... You know. :-)
"...one of Denmark's most influential 20th-century furniture and interior designers. During his career, he created innovative and futuristic designs in a variety of materials, especially plastics, and in vibrant and exotic colors. His style was very "1960s" but regained popularity at the end of the 20th century; as of 2004, Panton's most well-known furniture models are still in production (at Vitra, among others)." (wikipedia)
