Henge Miami Design District: Inside the Horizon Penthouse Frankfurt by PURPUR Interior Concepts

For this edition of Miami Living, we bring you a residential project featuring Henge (henge07.com), an Italian luxury design brand founded in 2011 by Paolo Tormena and architect Isabella Genovese. Conceived as a creative laboratory rather than a conventional furniture company, Henge has built its identity on material research, craftsmanship, and a radical approach to form.

You can now experience Henge firsthand in the Miami Design District, where the brand continues to engage with the global design community.

Horizon Penthouse FrankfurtThe residence was designed and realised by Maud Winkler and Nadia Houati of PURPUR Interior Concepts in Frankfurt. Their approach combines architectural clarity with sensitivity to materials and atmosphere, creating interiors that feel structured. The project is an urban apartment overlooking the skyline of Frankfurt. Two neighbouring units were combined into one residence, resulting in a clear and fluid layout with architectural presence. The design is defined by selected materials and balanced proportions that give the interior a calm character.

This project represents a milestone for Henge as it demonstrates how the brand’s furniture and material language can shape an entire living environment. Rather than simply placing objects within an interior, the project develops a coherent architectural concept in which materials, proportions and atmosphere work together to define the space.

The initial brief focused on merging two complex apartments into one home while creating a masculine, urban interior. The challenge was not only architectural but also technical, as structural elements, electrical systems and lighting needed to be integrated into one system. From this starting point, the design developed into a space with identity, clear detailing and a consistent material concept. The emphasis was placed on quality, integration and a calm atmosphere.

The apartment measures approximately 200 square metres and was restructured. Several walls were removed, the technical infrastructure rebuilt and the layout reorganised to create a fluid spatial experience. Henge played a central role in defining the masculine material language, which contrasts with softer bespoke elements such as suede-clad walls and warm textures.

Almost all elements in the apartment were customised. Suede-clad wall panels, doors and shelving were developed specifically for the project, creating a cohesive architectural envelope. Even the Henge table was adapted to a lounge height according to the client’s request, while the black marble wall cladding was adjusted to align with the geometry of the space.

Compared with previous residential projects, this interior places the Henge design language within an urban context. The contrast between raw architectural materials and craftsmanship produces a distinctive atmosphere.

The design reflects the Henge vision through clear lines, balanced proportions and emphasis on materiality. The atmosphere is calm, structured and tactile, with light used to emphasise depth and texture throughout the apartment. Contemporary luxury is expressed through the authenticity of materials, precision in detailing and transitions between surfaces. There is no decorative excess, only considered choices and high-quality finishes.

Metallic finishes, treated surfaces with natural patina, cast cement flooring, luminous onyx and suede-clad wall panels were central to the concept. Each material was selected for its intrinsic depth and quality, creating a balance between architectural precision and warmth. The dialogue between light, texture and materiality lends the space a timeless elegance while reinforcing its character.
