As one of the defining accomplishments of this project’s scope, the interior design firm (in coordination with third-party architects) led the delivery of a 188-guestroom hospitality destination by completely transforming the vacant 14 stories of an existing hull of an edifice. Originally constructed in 1970, the annex in which this new upscale boutique hotel serves its guests has sat vacant since 2006, essentially rendering this project a historic conservation and hotel conversion redevelopment.
Deconstructing the design program, the intent behind the interior design team’s vision was playfully ambitious: “Blend European glamor with cowboy swagger.” Inspired by both the city’s revered standing as one of the epicenters of America’s western heritage, as well as the modern and glamorous European-inspired aesthetic that defines the hotel’s brand, the interior design team seamlessly blended western bravado with European flair by juxtaposing rough and tumble western design elements throughout the hotel’s otherwise sophisticated spaces.
