hen it came time to find an interior designer, they wanted something cosmopolitan yet reflective of Mallorcan heritage and design. Karlen knew that London-based designer Tatjana von Stein had been spending time on the island and so they approached her about doing the project. Her first brief was about the colour palette and how it would guide the story of Làlia. They knew it would be a good fit. The space celebrates local materials and craftsmanship with pieces commissioned by Lasanta & Co., stools by La Pecera, large handcrafted wooden tables by Ducoin Studio, local fabrics by Textil Bujosa and light fixtures by Contain. In addition, unique vintage finds from Dusty Deco and bespoke fitted furniture custom made on the island, and a range of noble materials from Binissalem stone to marble, velvet and leather adds a feeling of glamour. The meticulous architectural renovations were overseen by Gras Reynes, who are known for their respect and understanding of historic architecture while being able to transform it for contemporary needs. Details such as original carved stone columns and wooden beams reflect the building’s past. 

The club offers three levels of membership: The House Membership, which is the full-year membership that includes access to everything; a Social Membership, which offers access to the restaurant, bar and all of the events but not to the co-working spaces or gym, and a Seasonal Membership which has a 3-month minimum commitment at a time. As the club grows, so do the events that are featured - including member breakfasts, member talks on themes as diverse as dream interpretation to branding for entrepreneurs; Spanish classes, music nights, meditation and wellness offerings. On the weekends, the restaurant serves brunch and there is a kid’s club available for under 12-year olds.
