Green, smart and chic are the new buzzwords for Amsterdam.

From 19th-20th September, the city will be host to the 6th ELLE Wonen Inside Design Amsterdam festival.

It is a weekend contemporary design feast for thousands of visitors.

The Lloyd Hotel at Oostelijke Handelskade will undergo a complete metamorphosis as the main centerpiece of this event.

The crème de la crème of the Dutch design world are given carte blanche by ELLE Wonen to re-style more than 30 rooms in the boutique hotel.

Top brands and designers such as Ineke Hans, Dick van Hoff, Richard Hutten, Scholten & Baijings, Frank Visser and Edward Vliet will be showcasing their innovative works in customize spaces.
