Mandarin Oriental Prague, Czech Republic

In the heart of Prague, near Karlsbrücke, the Mandarin-Oriental five-star hotel was born after a complete renovation of the “Karmelitska” medieval cloister. The historical, 500-year-old walls now accommodate 99 deluxe rooms and 22 exclusive suites. The historical building that’s protected by a preser-vation order incorporates all state of the art technology that a luxury hotel can offer. Among the technology is the Merten System M with a combination of classy matt and polar white inserts with Merten M-Star frames in satin silver. Every room and suite has dim-mable lighting. The extremely silent and extendable Merten System M dimming inserts offer an optimum solution. There are up to four inde-pendent dimmable light sources per room providing a pleasant atmosphere at a historical site.

The Ritz-Carlton Beijing, China

The Ritz Carlton Beijing was designed by the international architectural firm Wimberly Allison Tong & Goo. The luxury hotel is on the hub of the capital’s dynamically growing finance district. The Ritz-Carlton is well-known for its extraordinarily high design demands and places great value on the stylish decor of its hotels. For this reason, after having equipped the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Berlin, Schneider Electric was once again chosen to fit all of the hotel rooms with the multi-award winning switch ranges Merten M-Plan and Merten M-Star from Merten System M.

Schattdecor headquarters Thansau, Germany

The new 6-storey offi ce building forms the centre of the new Schatt-decor headquarters. The highlight of Schattdecor’s new company head-quarters is the cylindrical administra-tion building. The intelligent building technology was designed by Schneider Electric to be both representative and functional. All walls inside the building are glass walls and make the whole working area fl ooded with light. Schneider Electric made use here, among other things, of the Merten CONNECT radio push- buttons, which match perfectly with the interior design.
