Immersed in the landscape of Armonk, New York, this boutique hotel is a source of retreat, of respite, and of refueling. Originally built, designed, and furnished by the former ownership’s personal architect and decorator, the building holds a special place in the client’s portfolio. It is a secluded retreat, private and discrete, and its original design was intended to blend into similar residential estates in the area, all in a vernacular of Americanized nods to the Tudor style. Our design embraced various user groups and space types, including conference, dining, and guest rooms, as well as areas of public collaboration and gathering. It was also coupled with extensive technology upgrades with timeless detailing, a marriage that impacts nearly all spaces on the campus. Large technological installations, including a 16’ LED wall, are disguised and incorporated with minimal impact to the existing architecture. The completed revitalization introduces new life to a beloved piece of real estate, ushering in a new era for the buildings. The new design has doubled their bookings for business travelers and tripled their bookings for conferences.
