IGNIV by ANDREAS CAMINADA

Chef Caminada’s name is synonymous with haute cuisine, vision, and innovation. Schloss Schauenstein, with 3 Michelin stars, will celebrate its 20-year anniversary in December 2023. The Graubünden native’s ideas are usually well ahead of their time but also reflect the present, and his «IGNIV» restaurants are no exception. Caminada invites guests to embark upon a culinary experience: the sharing of time and fine food. A concept that truly appeals to a modern, cosmopolitan guest and creates a place in which culinary indulgence is celebrated. Rhaeto-Romanic for «nest», his currently three IGNIV restaurants are places for the senses where sharing culinary art, indulgence and time take center stage – a refreshing and young concept with outstanding cuisine focusing on the product. IGNIV celebrates also an attitude to life: experiencing a lasting gourmet adventure with friends and acquaintances, jointly putting together a meal which will ultimately be served in pans and platters as sharing dishes. The omnipresent love for detail leads to a modern but cozy atmosphere. In Switzerland, the renowned Spanish designer Patricia Urquiola was responsible the interior design of all four IGNIV restaurants and created the unique, hedonistic ambiance within their partner hotels.

In addition to the exquisite interior design, the IGNIV logo, designed by graphic designer Remo Caminada, also adds a touch of understated refinement. He used the simplest of design elements to create the logo: an oval and straight lines. At first glance it appears to be merely a muddle of lines and only becomes clear when one looks closely: It symbolizes an egg in a bird’s nest. The gastronomic concept not only pleases its guests: Guide MICHELIN currently awards two IGNIV restaurants in Switzerland – at Grand Resort Bad Ragaz, at Marktgasse Hotel Zürich, both with 2 MICHELIN stars and opening 4th quarter 2024 IGNIV Andermatt. IGNIV Bangkok at The St. Regis Bangkok (opened in autumn 2020) and since 2021 holds 1 star. igniv.com
