1. The Sinclair, Autograph Collection in Texas
Sinclair Oil Holdings 1929 iconic building in Ft. Worth Texas is now home to The Sinclair, a Marriott Autograph Collection Hotel. Opened in January 2020 this 164-room hotel boasts magnificent historic features well preserved over the past 90 years. Built to serve as Sinclair Oil Holdings headquarters the building was occupied as an office building until the time of the renovation.
The interior design draws on Ft. Worth swagger yet is elevated for a luxurious modern experience. Drawing inspiration from the glamour of the Art Deco period the material palette includes rich walnut, velvet, sleek marbles, and rich gold metals. Cowhide and leather are juxtaposed against the elegant finish palette and create a distinctly Ft. Worth experience. Art provides a surprising twist in the elegant property showcasing pop-culture icons and iconic Texas characters in cartoons. Guestrooms provide a modern, sleek aesthetic with Italian made casegoods, marble and polished stainless steel vanities, and wood flooring.
2. Lotte New York Palace
This project includes the interior transformation of four luxury suites. The four suites are stacked atop two corners of the building, capturing wrap-around views of Manhattan and northward to Central Park. The four suites within this scope are part of a larger suite collection at the hotel and were designed to evoke a classically inspired New York apartment, “it’s like your own personal townhouse in the sky.”
To meet the challenge of working with such vast spaces, and to make it feel more intimate and inviting, the design team integrated libraries and private lounges into the bedroom areas, custom-designed rugs throughout the suites, and carefully arranged seating throughout to create smaller destinations within each penthouse. The seating can be easily rearranged to accommodate larger, socially distanced gatherings. By underscoring a residential spirit, the design captures the feeling of a classic New York City pied-à-terre with bespoke art collections and unparalleled views.
3. The Fairmont Washington, D.C.
Drawing inspiration from the geometry of an aerial view of Washington DC, ForrestPerkins served as architect and interior designer to transform the lobby, lounge, and outdoor courtyard at the Fairmont Washington, D.C. The theme is woven throughout the new space and is reflected in a geometrically abstracted map of DC behind the front desk, as well as the dramatic undulating chandelier. Comprised of 4,500 individually suspended shapes of mixed metals, the geometric elements create a play of shadows on the original limestone columns that pay homage to the city’s Neoclassical architecture. Sculptural hand-tufted rugs depicting the city grid and Potomac river unify the space.
Once the social and business epicenter for the city’s elite and influential oil money, this project takes inspiration from the Men’s Social Club itself in its rebirth as a luxury lifestyle hotel. Built in 1927 in the Art Deco architectural style, this new hotel honors its history while creating a modern experience rooted in sophisticated style and premiere hospitality offerings.
The success of the three-year design and construction process attest to the cohesive vision of the developers, the design team, the brand and the operator. Accolades began pouring in as soon as the hotel opened, with highest ratings for all categories.
5. The St. Anthony, a Luxury Collection Hotel in Texas
This national historic landmark was completely renovated by ForrestPerkins to celebrate the style of a bygone era incorporating the modern conveniences today’s travelers require. In the 1950’s legendary Interior Designer, Dorothy Draper designed an elegant china pattern for the hotel in a striking parrot green, edged with gold. Inspired by this, ForrestPerkins wove these bold signature colors through the public spaces and guestrooms.

6. Read House in Tennessee
Designing the interiors of the Read House to convey the essence of a glamorous 1920’s era while interpreting the story of a mysterious tycoon and his lavish, slightly dangerous, and always alluring lifestyle was a memorable experience.
The hotel has wonderful existing interior architectural elements and embellishments, particularly in the Lobby, the Promenade, the Green Room, and the Silver Ballroom, now dressed in new finishes as a stage for the events and experiences that each guest has when they visit or stay in the hotel. Likewise, the spaces we created such as the Lobby Lounge, the Billiard Room, and Bridgeman’s Chop House have distinct personalities and energy, created with traditional millwork but extravagant finishes and opulent decoration. Every space exudes glamor and feels as if Jay Gatsby himself could appear at any moment.
ForrestPerkins transformed The Jefferson Washington, D.C. into a jewel after working on the historic hotel for three years as the Architect of Record and Interior Designer. The 99-room Beaux Arts hotel, four blocks from the White House, is the first in the nation’s capital to be selected for membership in Relais & Chateaux.

8. Columbia Place Dual Branded Hotel in Washington, D.C.
Columbia Place is a story of duality. This single hotel operates under two flags that harmoniously coexist in an architectural shell that incorporates several historic rowhouses into a new-build architectural shell, serving to enhance the duality narrative. Natural juxtapositions in design and amenities lend themselves to an interior palette of contrasting design elements. A pairing of organic and geometric shapes emerges as a design thread that can be found throughout the space.
9. The Westin Dallas Downtown in Texas
Opened in 2015, ForrestPerkins reimagined the iconic One Main Place historic office tower, working with the owner KFK Group to program and masterplan this mixed-use development project.

The unique, whimsical, effortless charm of the hotel has been enhanced by the recently completed renovation, which included Meeting Rooms, the Ballroom, the Lobby and public spaces.

Daroff Design was retained as Interior Designer for the iconic St. Regis Atlanta, located in the stylish Buckhead section of Atlanta. Deemed the crown jewel of luxury hotels in the area, the 5-star Marriott brand hotel underwent a total renovation of all guest rooms under the design direction of Daroff Design. In addition to updating 151 luxury rooms and suites, the team also brought to life the event space and show kitchen, expected to host private parties or be a space for cooking lessons with celebrity chefs. As inspiration for the aesthetic direction, the design team drew on the area’s historical cinematic and artistic setting which emphasized a high society rooted in the exquisite and the progressive.

#3 Loews Portofino Bay Resort at Universal Studios
Daroff Design design for the refurbishment of the Loews Portofino – Orlando Universal Studio Resort’s guest rooms and suites are inspired by the seaside village and upscale sun-drenched resort of Portofino and its historic harbour on the Italian Riviera. Daroff Design created a fresh new sunny Mediterranean-inspired design for 750 guest rooms, suites and corridors by celebrating the charm, romance and glamour of Portofino Italy’s grand vacation villas and hotels. The refined palette of luxurious carpets, upholstery and drapery materials in soft neutral cream colours, paired with sun-baked shades of pale aqua are complemented by rich terra cotta coloured Rojo Alicate marble, custom-designed whitewashed beech wood furnishings. The decorative carpet patterns, inspired by ornate classical Italian design motifs, paired with modern simplicity and convenient technology, further enhance the guest experience and complements the resort’s theatrical architecture, central lagoon and lush landscape. Evocative of Portofino Italy’s classic seaside resort, some of these luxurious finishes have been purposely “sun-baked” and “distressed” so as to appear authentic in time and place.
#4 The Ritz-Carlton St. Thomas

Baskervill Projects
#1 Glass Light Hotel & Gallery, Autograph Collection
Envisioned as a home for the hotel owners’ ever-expanding collection of singularly unique and profoundly exquisite glass art, the design of this distinctive 114-room boutique property connects hotel guests both conceptually and physically to the collection. Working closely with the owners, the design focuses on creating an activated and highly experiential guest journey from the moment you enter the historic building until you reach your room. The process of glassmaking, incorporating the elements of sand, fire, and air, is played out in curated, whimsical details in the hotel’s spaces; guestrooms are specifically envisioned as a play on the glassblower’s studio. Rooms offer an open concept so guests can easily work, relax, or create in the space. Art is inspired by the colour chips used for glassblowing. In the public spaces, the glass art takes centre stage; a marriage of wood and glass details further nod to the glassmaking process, while iconic commissioned and one-of-a-kind pieces from Chihuly, Peter Bremers, Stephen Powell, Lino Tagliapietra, and others — all from the owners’ personal collection—serve as a catalyst for larger conversations surrounding the artistry, inherent authenticity, and actual creation of glass. The showstoppers? Two custom, life-size glass bunnies by Bremers — one greeting guest at reception and another draped across the bar — cast and moulded-in Bremers’ studio in the Netherlands specifically for this hotel. The bunnies are a sweet nod to the owners, whose grandchildren call her Bunny. Originally constructed in 1912 as the headquarters building for the F.S. Royster fertilizer company, the 14-story classical-revival building home to this special property was predominantly used as an office building until its reimagining as an intellectually curious boutique hotel. Much of the building’s original architectural detail was uncovered during the renovation, giving the property an extraordinary harmony of old and new.

Nuanced nautical influences set the tone for this comprehensive renovation, which included updates to all 150 guestrooms and suites and public spaces, as well as re-imaging of the exterior façade. The guestroom design features thoughtful details inspired by elements of a sailboat with warm tones and textures derived from the functional, yet cosy cabins down below. These are contrasted by organic patterns in materials inspired by the graceful movement of the winds and seas. The essence of the historic, seaside town will be brought to the rooms with the use of eclectic artwork and a curated assortment of furniture giving the space a charming, residential feel. Public spaces continue the journey with layered hues of navy and white, moody greys, and browns – a subtle and sophisticated nod to the palette of the sea. Modern fixtures and furniture, and larger-scaled art, provide a contemporary twist on the traditional theme.
#3 AC Hotel Orlando
Located at the heart of downtown Orlando, this urban oasis in the sky is home to 180 guestrooms and signature AC Hotel spaces perched atop one of Orlando’s tallest buildings. This experience creates a relationship to the surrounding environment similar to that of a lighthouse – and it’s this notion of space as a beacon that sets the tone for this property. Through the use of high-contrast materials along distinct datum lines, layered zones, and deliberate framing of the unparalleled view, the design creates a subtle – yet dynamic – experience for locals and guests alike.
#4 AC/Moxy Atlanta Midtown
The 288-key AC/Moxy Dual Brand Midtown Atlanta is the first dual-brand of its type, with each brand having its own unique space and style. Working with Cooper Carry, Baskervill provided interior design services for the Moxy guestrooms, AC guestrooms and public spaces, shared Moxy and AC meeting spaces, fitness centre, and the amazing rooftop bar, High Note. The design takes cues from Midtown Atlanta’s thriving arts scene, reflecting the area’s expressive cultural fabric. Neighbouring arts venues act as the inspiration for the hotel’s “gallery of the arts” concept, a simple, yet sophisticated, palette of white, grey, olive, tan and mixed metals create a canvas for a carefully curated selection of vibrant local artwork unique to the space, including mural-style pieces and sculptural elements.
Inspired By The Look
This modern contemporary hotel lobby has black coffee tables, white upholstered armchairs and a golden door handler.
#5 Highline Vail DoubleTree
Baskervill’s architecture, interior design, and MEP engineering teams joined forces to breathe new life and purpose into what was once a stuck-in-the-70s Holiday Inn, transforming it into a luxe retreat. Taking advantage of the vaulted ceilings and spectacular proximity to coveted Colorado slopes — this 115-guestroom property sports custom, lodge-style finishes (slate tiling, weathered woods, and sleek leather accents) that exude a refined rustic vibe. Towering panels of charred woods define a dramatic reception experience, punctuating the space with bright whites and earthy tones. Multi-purpose public spaces include a family-friendly game room and entertainment area and full-service bar and lounge, connected by an oversized, 20-foot-long, dual-sided fireplace. Naturally, the property also offers a unique ski and boot storage area adjacent to the entry.
#6 Richmond Marriott Short Pump
Baskervill provided interior architecture and design services for this comprehensive guestroom and public space renovation at the Richmond Marriott Short Pump. Located in a bustling suburban office park, the design draws inspiration from the surrounding natural landscape and work/live/play lifestyle of the area. The existing lobby, restaurant, bar, reception and some back of house areas were demolished to make way for a new Marriott Great Room concept on the first floor. The space includes a day-to-night buffet and bar area, numerous small meeting and collaboration spaces, and an evening bar. A new, 24/7 M-Club Lounge for Marriott Rewards members will also offer food and drink options. The renovation also includes an expansion of the fitness area and three new meeting rooms, in addition to updated finishes and fixtures in the existing spaces. The aesthetic references rich tactile materials such as metal, concrete, and glass contrasted with modern sculptural elements. A neutral palette infused with the patina of mixed metals and wood and natural elements draws the eye to the clean lines of the architecture. Art from local Richmond-based artists is incorporated throughout.
#7 AC Atlanta Downtown
Atlanta’s burgeoning international fashion scene served as the inspiration for the design of this conversion of an existing Holiday Inn to an AC Hotel in downtown Atlanta. Baskervill provided architectural and interior design services for this comprehensive renovation of the property’s public spaces and guestrooms, including an outdoor patio and garden area. First floor areas were reconfigured to include the brand’s signature media salons, AC Lounge Bar, AC Kitchen, and AC Library. On the property’s lower level, the fitness area was expanded while outside the terrace and pool areas were reworked to include a fire pit, lush landscape, and outdoor TVs. Guestrooms are AC’s prototypical Oscura Scheme, while public spaces reflect Atlanta’s multi-cultural landscape. Hints of rich purple and teal accent the brand’s neutral canvas. The design highlights details and trends in couture seen over time through purposeful art, fabric, and furniture selections.
#8 Hilton St. Louis Downtown at The Arch
Drawing inspiration from the building’s late-19th century architecture, Baskervill worked with owner Inland American Lodging Advisor and Hilton Worldwide on an interior renovation to the historic Hilton St. Louis Downtown at the Arch. Originally constructed in 1888 as the headquarters for Merchant Laclède National Bank, the building’s restrained ornamentation, cast iron detailing, and Classical Revival touches to set the tone for the interior renovation. Updates to the guestrooms and public spaces, including the presidential suite, lobby, bar, and restaurant, fuse the old world architecture of the building with classic modern updates and amenities. A refined, elegant palette of tans, creams, and metallics pairs with rich wood tones and pops of vibrant emerald for a subtle, sophisticated feel. Artwork, specifically selected and custom-designed by the design team for the space, plays with the scale and texture of currency, offering a unique nod to the hotel’s prior life as a bank.
#9 The Equinox Luxury Hotel and SPA
Known in various times as the Marsh Tavern, Thaddeus Munson’s New Inn, Widow Black’s Inn, Vanderlip’s Hotel, The Taconic, The Orvis Hotel, and Equinox House, The Equinox Golf Resort and Spa, dating back to 1769, stands as a symbol of the history and lifestyle of New England over the past two centuries. As the Architect of Record, Baskervill updated the 140 guest rooms and public spaces for The Equinox Golf Resort and Spa. The revitalization of this stunning property pays homage to the past while bringing sophisticated modern touches that make guests feel right at home. The finished results give guests the world-class luxury and service that The Equinox is renowned for in an updated setting. Most recently, Baskervill was also chosen to re-design the Colonnade Room, The Equinox’s premier ballroom and dining area. The vision for the Colonnade Room includes brightening and lifting the space with light walls, mouldings and window treatments, an elegant carpet pattern, and simplified lighting and ceiling details. Baskervill’s intent is to incorporate the luxurious nature of The Equinox brand while updating its appeal in today’s world of high standards.
#10 Napa Valley Marriott Hotel & SPA
“The Tasting Room: an intimate moment in an eloquent space” is the inspiration behind the design for the newly renovated guestrooms at the Napa Valley Marriott Hotel & Spa by Baskervill. Using the locality’s natural landscape as a foundation, the design layers rich wood tones, burgundies and purples with neutrals in greys and creams to create a modern, yet enveloping and welcoming tone. Fixture and furniture selections err on the side of simplicity, letting the picturesque views and warm textures take centre stage.
#11 Hotel Indigo Gainesville at Celebration Pointe
The design of the six-story, 140-room hotel centres on the concept of mutualism — the symbiotic relationships between species that benefits both parties — as it expresses the relationship between the built environment and nature, nature and folklore, and folklore and people. The guest experience is meant to follow a progression from nature to the built environment, utilizing repetitive elements of varying materiality and focal artwork. Strict earth tones and exposed concrete floors punctuate the space’s raw nature with pops of bright pink and red florals in note-shaped stands breaking up the grassy green fabrics and faux-alligator textures of the lounge seating and dual-toned ottomans. Floating at varying levels, the lobby’s deconstructed ceiling tiles accentuate the unpredictable nods honouring Gainesville’s legends of the sky, swamp, and sound. The lobby bar’s staggered wood planks drop down from the ceiling, reflecting the stalactites and hanging bats one might see at the nearby preserve and wildlife refuge. The bar itself is clad in reclaimed wood tile with a bartop made of recycled quartz — that reflects the stalactites and hanging bats one might see at the nearby preserve and wildlife refuge. Extrapolated soundwaves of alligator growl ripple onto the backs of communal table chairs at the adjacent restaurant, nearing where the real rhythm of the hotel takes off: the guestrooms. There, Ellas McDaniel (better known as Bo Diddley) gets his due with a show-stopping mural to the American musician with Florida roots who influenced the likes of Elvis Presley, the Beatles, and the Rolling Stones. A two-toned lounge chair and snare-drum-inspired ottoman (that pulls double duty as a luggage bench) complement dynamic art pieces embracing the vibrancy of Bo’s notable hits — including his namesake “Bo Diddley beat,” which is abstracted in rhythmic patterning throughout the hotel.
#12 The Commonwealth
Baskervill partnered with SMI Hotel Group for a complete reimagining of The Commonwealth hotel’s historic identity, renovating the 11-story boutique property’s lobby, restaurant, meeting spaces, and 59-suite styled guestrooms. The strategy? Curate a visual love letter to the hotel’s home city with help from an utterly eclectic assembly of artists (and aesthetics) all riffing off a single prompt: What is Richmond to you? And one piece of locally sourced art and furniture at a time, a lively visual experience honouring for guests took shape. No matter where you are within the hotel, there’s a constant juxtaposition aimed at balancing new and old, subtle and bold, geometric and organic. From animated murals (a nod to a city covered in them) to unique guestroom monikers fashioned after famous local landmarks and people, there’s a rich story around every corner. Black and white photographs previously hung in guestrooms, many at least 100 years old, now hang in the hotel’s restaurant honouring the hotel’s vibrant legacy.

The interiors of Hotel Rui Vallarta are gorgeous, with classic colour schemes and a variety of entertaining interior design options. The combination of beige in the hotel rooms with green and red in the restaurant and gaming areas results in a stunning project that will make every visitor to this great hotel in Vallarta grin.
Switzerland, in general, has great potential for art and craftsmanship, and it is no accident that the Swiss Made label is so highly acclaimed around the world as a standard of excellence. In particular, Zurich is a city submerged in talent, especially in the interior design department. Today, it is with great pleasure, we present you with Monoplan AG – Hospitality Interior Design Projects.
Monoplan has a unique standing within the landscape of architectural firms in Switzerland. By combining architecture, interior design, and branding under one roof, Monoplan is particularly well-placed to meet the needs of projects from the hospitality sector. And after just 12 years in the business, the firm is already “Leading in Hospitality”.
Monoplan AG
Monoplan’s range of expertise is continuously evolving, as they have an international team. Their office in Zurich is not the only place where you will find members of their specialist team with impressive backgrounds. Monoplan’s branches in Germany and Greece also add to the diversity of the firm.
Monoplan AG’s Projects
1. Holiday Inn Zurich
As a celebration of its 10-year anniversary in Oerlikon, Holiday Inn has commissioned Monoplan to renovate the lobby and bar of the Holiday Inn Oerlikon. The brief was to design cozy and inviting contemporary spaces that would harmonize with the existing building.
Being inspired by the hotel’s close proximity to Zurich’s Hallenstadion, an important venue for concerts, Monoplan’s maxim was “let us entertain you”. Since the hotel’s bar is usually replete with concert-goers the hotel’s reception counter has been designed to double up as a pop-up bar in case of need.
Music also plays the main role in the lounge. Records and instruments serve as decoration. On closer inspection, the pendulum lights above the bar turn out to be converted hi-hats (drums).
2. Ameron Boutique Hotel
Hotel Bellerive au Lac is located right on the shore of Lake Zürich, only a stone’s throw from the Opera House. It was built in the 1920s. Monoplan was tasked with refurbishing the storied building. After extensive reconstruction and renovation work, it will reopen as the first AMERON Boutique Hotel in early 2021.
On the heels of Davos and Lucerne, it will be Switzerland’s third AMERON hotel and the first AMERON Boutique Hotel in the country.
For the interior, Monoplan reimagined the existing hotel design in a more contemporary interpretation. The 61 rooms and suites, as well as the conference rooms, were remade in new splendor. The restaurant, with its new bar, has the potential to become Zürich’s next hot tip for a night out.
3. Lady Spa in the Interalpen Hotel-Tyrol
After only seven weeks of renovation, the new Lady Spa in the Interalpen Hotel-Tyrol opened in May 2018. This marks the completion of the third and final part of the overall renewal of the Interalpen Spa. In addition to the Lady Spa, a youth club with a cinema room now complements the hotel’s facilities.
The new Lady Spa presents itself in dark tones. The sauna, steam sauna, shower world, and ice fountain are grouped around a room that resembles a scene from the Arabian Nights. The equally stylish relaxation room offers access to the outdoor area with a view of the beautiful mountain panorama.
Another highlight in light shades is the new spa reception with the integrated shop. The interior design zones the spacious room into inviting waiting areas, stylish presentation options for care products, and Monoplan has created an atmosphere of relaxation.
4. Private Spa in the Interalpen-Hotel Tyrol
After more than 15 years, the health & beauty area of the Interalpen-Hotel Tyrol has been completely redesigned, by Monoplan. The aim was to incorporate the new facilities into the existing premises harmoniously. The treatment rooms in particular are now of the highest technological standard. A private SPA area was created as a new highlight, which can be combined in various ways with the other areas.
The whole renovation, achieved by Monoplan, is based on an overall concept for the entire spa area of the hotel, which will be executed step by step over the coming years. Part of the concept involves turning areas that are loud, bright, and lively into areas that are quiet, dim, and serene. The new treatment area is protected acoustically from the louder areas, meaning that guests can completely relax. A lot of wood, high-quality materials, and intelligent lighting underpin the 5-star-plus claim of the hotel.
5. Panorama Suites in the Interalpen Hotel-Tyrol
In spring 2019, under the motto “NATURAL. LUXURY.”, the new panorama suites on the 7th floor of the Interalpen-Hotel Tyrol were finished. This Monoplan’s project involved stripping the entire story all the way back to a shell. To integrate the extensive range of HVAC systems and to create a generous room height, the roof in the lower area had to be slightly elevated. New elements like underfloor heating, ceilings with integrated cooling systems, and sunshades were installed as a matter of course.
The highlight is the large terraces with an unrestricted view over the glorious mountain landscape. And thanks to the large panoramic windows of the new suites, the atmosphere inside is also shaped by the landscape. Overall, the rooms and bathtubs feel extremely spacious and generously sized. High-quality materials like oakwood flooring and exquisite natural stone afford the new interior a classy yet fresh look.
In early 2022, Geneva’s first Ruby Hotel will be opening its doors only 200 meters from Lake Geneva’s shoreline. Right between Rue de Rhône and Rue du Marché, Geneva’s two largest shopping streets and in the city’s very heart. The new hotel, will comprise three interlinked buildings, one of them with an original historical façade. Monoplan was appointed to draft plans for the repurposing of the former office complexes.
A lift takes guests from the Galerie Jean-Malbuisson shopping arcade straight up to the 7th floor to find reception and the public lobby lounge bar.
One of the secrets to Ruby Hotels’ success and popularity is its interior design. Geneva’s Ruby Hotel will thus be presenting many similarities to Düsseldorf’s Ruby Coco and Munich’s Ruby Lilly, but not without subtle differences to underline its very own character.
7. Grand Hotel Rhodania
Monoplan has been tasked with planning the new build of the Grand Hotel Rhodania in Crans Montana. This hotel was once known for its magnificent charm. The design concept aims to resurrect the grandeur and glamour of the former hotel and place it in a new context in interesting ways. High-quality, natural materials will create a timeless, elegant, and extremely luxurious ambiance.
As well as 41 suites, two exclusive maisonette suites on the roof – at 150 m² and 180 m² respectively – are some of the highlights of the new hotel. The restaurant has been divided into two different spaces with different ambiances, but which complement each other; a sheltered area with tables for private conversation, and an open area for those wanting a more lively and bustling setting.
Boutique Hotel Pellas is situated in the middle of the Swiss mountains, at the heart of a ski resort next to a popular ski piste. Split over four levels, the hotel boasts 22 rooms and one suite. The sun terrace outside has enough space for around 400 guests.
The aim of the project was to renovate the existing building and to add an extension. The extension had to respect the essence of the original building and give the hotel a contemporary overall appearance with high architectural quality. Regular guests were also to have an instant sense of familiarity with the new building.
The facade facing the ski piste is impressive in volume and rises out of the expanse of the roof. The large windows of the façade provide an excellent view over the ski piste and the surrounding mountains.
Parts of the facade and the roof are made from Corten steel, affording the building a distinctive appearance, yet one that incorporates the regional and traditional elements.
9. Waldhotel Bürgenstock
The Medical Wellness Hotel on Bürgenstock mountain combines exclusive architecture with the highest level of ecological standards. Thanks to its terraced structure and the green rooftops, the Waldhotel blends in with the landscape.
The building is made from natural materials. The stones used for the façade, for example, originate from the section of the hill that was removed to make way for the hotel, thereby underlining the ecological concept of the building.
With 160 rooms and suites and around 4,800 m² of space for medical applications and wellness treatments, the Waldhotel focuses on the rest and recovery phase following medical procedures.
The building was designed by Matteo Thun & Partners from Milan. As the local partner of Matteo Thun in Switzerland, Monoplan oversaw the implementation planning and coordination with the public authorities.
10. Panorama Hotel Waldenburg
In Waldenburg/Germany, the new “Panorama Hotel” of the Würth Group is taking shape next to the existing hotel. The conference hotel is characterized by an unparalleled view across the surrounding hilly landscape.
As well as a generous amount of space for holding conferences and a small wellness area, the hotel also boasts highlights of a more culinary nature, including a restaurant and bar.
Roman and Williams, founded by Robin Standefer and Stephen Alesch, two amazing interior designers that have been working together since 2002. This firm was first created when they were out and about creating sets for Hollywood films, which led to a home in Los Angeles. After this, Roman and Williams was born, and they have yet to look back on this decision.
This New York-based design studio is known for its excellent work on hotels, restaurants, retail spaces, homes, product design and cultural work. Employing various textures, ideas, objects and references, the mix between refinement and rebellion and past and future is a motif that is truly strong throughout their various commercial and hospitality designs. Creating these interiors are also only possible with a fantastic team of interior designers and architects, all of which Roman and Williams has.
Roman and Williams
Roman and Williams believe that the story of a space is as important as the design present. Playing into the experience of a room, this amazing firm tends to focus on integrity and character, leading to a fantastic interior design full of eclecticism. With traditional foundations, the act of rebelling against these ideas makes it so that the eclectic motif becomes much stronger and unique.

Robert A.M. Stern Architects –30 Park Place
Sharing a city block with the Woolworth Building, Cass Gilbert’s iconic 1913 skyscraper, 30 Park Place combines a 189-key five-star Four Seasons hotel with 157 top-end condominium apartments in a slender 82-story tower that has become an important landmark among the constellation of towers in Manhattan’s Downtown. The hotel entrance on Barclay Street leads visitors into four floors of lobbies, lounges, restaurants, ballrooms, meeting facilities, and a spa and fitness center. The grand stair to the public rooms of the hotel faces a through-block garden framed by a lower annex building that conceals building services and access to below-grade parking. A separate entrance and lobby on Park Place serves the residences. Amenities for the apartments are located on the 38th floor; the function rooms open to exterior loggias. The limestone and precast concrete shaft of the tower rises to a dramatic skyline profile of full-floor penthouses and setback terraces.
Robert A.M. Stern Architects –West Beach Village
The West Beach Village Villa Check-In, a charming multi-functional Shingle-style structure situated to the northeast of West Beach, is the first building to welcome guests of West Beach Village and the point of departure for visitors. On arrival to the Villa Check-In, guests will pass under a porte-cochere before parking. The lobby, finished with hardwood floors, custom wood wainscot and custom paneling, is adjacent a lounge composed of similar elements and featuring a fireplace and over-sized windows. The porch, on axis with a new conference center, includes a comfortable seating area that is appointed with classical wood columns, a brick and bluestone terrace, and custom designed railings and lanterns. The second floor accommodates offices with views of the Cougar Point Clubhouse.
Robert A.M. Stern Architects –Cougar Point Clubhouse
Cougar Point Golf Course, redesigned by Gary Player in 1996 and renovated in 2017, ranks as one of the top golf courses in South Carolina. Set on axis with the future West Beach Village Hotel, the picturesque Colonial Revival clubhouse will accommodate a pro shop, lounge, dining, and a bar overlooking the 18th green and fairway. An entry courtyard greets visitors arriving from the adjacent parking lot nestled into the landscape. The picturesque massing of the clubhouse, with splayed wings and sprawling porches, provides an iconic backdrop for an outstanding golf experience. Broad pillars, large shuttered windows, and dormers provide notes of formality to the rambling clubhouse with a refined contrast to the exterior, highlighted by a whimsical dormer-clock that faces the course. The interior continues the traditional aesthetic. The over-sized windows in the lobby create dramatic fairway views. The warm and welcoming dining room features a fireplace, oak-beamed ceiling with custom hoop brass light fixtures, and wainscot walls.
Robert A.M. Stern Architects –Albany Beach and Golf Club
Our two residential buildings at Albany in the Bahamas hold down critical sites in a new marina village master-planned by Duany, Plater-Zyberk & Company. One acts as a gateway to the marina; the memorable profile of its narrow south facade greets visitors arriving by boat. The west facade anchors one end of the marina with an asymmetrical mass that steps down from north to south to afford the largest residences terraces that look south to the sea. Our other building presents a more symmetrical face to establish a more formal presence on the south-facing village green as well as on the small park to the north. The two buildings share a palette of stone, stucco, and wood shutters and pergolas inspired by the charming Colonial and vernacular architectural traditions of the islands.
Robert A.M. Stern Architects –Disney’s BoardWalk
Incorporating 378 hotel rooms, 528 Disney Vacation Club suites, 15,000 square feet of meeting space and 49,000 square feet of dining, beverage and retail facilities, Disney’s BoardWalk evokes a turn of the century resort town. Varied in the manner that the architecture of any small town might be, the BoardWalk joins the Disney Yacht and Beach Club Hotels to complete a lakeside resort district that possesses a unity of vision comparable to that of the Swan and Dolphin hotels on its west and to Epcot, immediately to its east. Porches, awnings, shutters, dormers, look-out towers and widow’s walks proliferate throughout the BoardWalk to create an intimate and varied experience. To the east lies the BoardWalk Hotel, with ground-level restaurants that open to the boardwalk promenade. Behind its waterfront facade, the hotel, which takes its architectural cue from rambling colonial revival-style hotels of New England, is arranged around a series of garden courts, each distinct, including quiet gardens and active settings for swimming and croquet. West of the entry tower, The Disney Vacation Club, in keeping with the sense of the BoardWalk as a resort town, consists of a series of interconnected small scale buildings facing the lakefront. Beyond the lakefront, where the vacation club faces a canal, the building takes on a larger scale with wide roof overhangs and bold horizontals reflecting the early 20th century American tradition that combined classicism with vernacular cottage architecture to create the Bungalow Style. Here the historical timeline of the resort town’s development is brought to its conclusion by an architecture that suggests the incipient modernism of the early twentieth century. The centerpiece of the Vacation Club is a themed swimming pool that also serves the hotel. Recalling a country fair that might have existed next to a resort town, the pool is a private but lively gathering spot for the resort. Adding to the collage effect of this town, the meeting facility that abuts the hotel is a sprawling bracketed Victorian-Gothic inspired hall such as might have served as the community social and cultural center of a seaside town one hundred years ago.
Robert A.M. Stern Architects –Newport Bay Club Hotel
The 1,098-room Newport Bay Club Hotel evokes the tradition of grand American resorts, in particular that of Shingle Style seaside hotels along the northeast coast. Glimpsed across a lawn from the rond point, its 732-foot-long colonnaded porch is the symbolic gateway to the resort portion of Euro Disneyland. Arriving guests walk from the porte cochere into a painted wood-paneled double-height lobby and lounge, both providing direct views to the lake, which during the summer will be dotted with small paddleboats and sailboats. From the lobby and lounge, a staircase leads below to two restaurants that in warm weather open out onto the garden terrace. More informal than the front, the sprawling lakeside elevations of the hotel are punctuated by a profusion of figural elements that help break down the scale: towers, pergolas, dormers, and a lighthouse. To center the composition, a giant gambrel pediment serves as the culmination of the lake’s access.
Robert A.M. Stern Architects –Disney Ambassador Hotel
This hotel – the first Disney-branded hotel in Japan – is part of a new shopping and entertainment district at the gateway to the Tokyo Disney Resort, comprised of Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea theme parks. It is adjacent to the Maihama train station, the principal arrival point for visitors to the resort. The art moderne inspired design looks back to an architecture that represented the promise, magic, and glamour of a time when travel and movies were a romantic escape. The Disney Ambassador Hotel contains 500 guest rooms, facilities for banquets and weddings, four restaurants, and a Hollywood-style pool court.
Robert A.M. Stern Architects –Hotel Cheyenne
This 1,000-room hotel is organized as a complex of two-story buildings conceived in the image of a nineteenth-century American western town, but filtered through the lens of Hollywood. Unlike its prototype, which has a hotel as just one of the buildings along Main Street, the Hotel Cheyenne is the town itself. At the principal crossroads, where a street leads to the Hotel Santa Fe across the creek, there is a restaurant and check-in building. While the streets of typical western towns ran in straight lines and opened to endless vistas of prairie and mountains, the streets of Hotel Cheyenne, like those of the “back-lot” western towns built by Hollywood studios, have vistas angled to screen out “backstage” areas from the cameramen and the actors who, in this case, are one and the same–the hotel guests.
Robert A.M. Stern Architects –Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resorts
Two hotels–with a combined total of 1,215 guest rooms, a 110,000-square-foot convention center, and a 35,000-square-foot “fantasy” pool–make up this resort complex adjacent to Walt Disney World’s Epcot Center. While both hotels draw their inspiration from America’s architectural past, each has a unique identity. The Yacht Club is reminiscent of the rambling, shingle-covered seaside resorts that were built toward the end of the last century in New England towns such as Newport, Marblehead, and Bar Harbor. The Beach Club is lighter, more airy in expression. It is modeled on the many Stick Style cottages and resorts that could be found in towns like Cape May, New Jersey.
Robert A.M. Stern Architects –Anglebrook Golf Club
The design of the Anglebrook Golf Club takes its cue from traditional golf clubhouses in Westchester, which were treated as large, casually massed country houses. This is reflected in the winding entrance road and forecourt, the picturesque roofline of chimneys, gables and dormers, stucco walls, columned porches, and French doors and casement windows, as well as in the bluestone terraces and garden walls. The building consists of two parts: the clubhouse and a locker and starting lobby wing. An entrance hall connects the locker wing to the more formal clubhouse facilities (a lounge, a large high-ceilinged dining room, and a smaller club-like dining room). From these rooms, members will enjoy dramatic views of the surrounding bucolic 240-acre championship golf course.

Smallwoods –The Langham, Haikou
Langham is an English fashioned brand dating back to 1865. Their first hotel was in London and an English classical style is very much part of their DNA. The client’s brief was to adhere to Langham’s core elements incorporating subtle tones and simple white classical panelling but to imbue the design with a sense of place. Smallwood challenge was to ensure the guest could recognise the principle elements of the LH brand while being cognisant of the references to the locale and its cultural heritage. Smallwood has kept to the LH ‘DNA’ incorporating white timber panelling to create a classical backdrop with contemporary furniture, lighting, and fittings to act as a counterpoint and instil a freshness to the overall design. Key pieces such as the ‘cellarette’, (a Langham signature element that houses the mini-bar, dry goods, wines and spirits) are maintained but designed in a more Sino-orientated style. Langham’s core operational requirements are therefore met while adding a sense of place within the overall scheme.
Smallwoods –The Langham, Jakarta
The client wanted a design that would appeal to the high-end market and aspirational clientele in Jakarta. As in Haikou, a strong sense of place was needed. The more opulent styling for a Jakarta clientele was contrary to the Operator’s more classically English pared-back design expectations and Smallwood challenge was to meld these two styles together into a cohesive design. Smallwood design for the hotel uses a classically ‘Langham’ white panelling backdrop but with more contemporary elements. Subtle use of metal and mirror added that touch of opulence and richness that the client wanted while not detracting from the core Langham DNA. Once again, classical rhythms of symmetry and proportion help to set the design in the classical style while giving the opportunity for finishes and FF&E to be light, tonal and fresh. The Langham Apartments have been designed in a similar fashion but with a more eclectic approach to both layout and colour palette. It is important that the Apartments have a sophisticated residential ambience that differs from the hotel guestrooms.
Smallwoods –Sheraton Grand Lahore
The Sheraton Grand Lahore is a 168-key hotel located in the cosmopolitan city of Lahore, Pakistan. The design has an elegant simplicity and sophistication that is the hallmark of the brand while subtle references to the locale are picked out in patterning and texture across the hotel. Predominantly local stones and other materials were selected to underpin the design and acknowledge the sense of place and vernacular of the city.
Smallwoods –Fairmont La Marina Rabat-Salé
Morocco is an extraordinarily rich mixture of French, Moorish, Berber and other indigenous cultures and its capital Rabat is in fact two cities, the old town of Sale and its newer neighbour which is the political hub. The colour palette of northern coastal Morocco is a combination of whitewashed walls, blue and yellows in tiling and metalwork, and is markedly different from the richer, darker tones of Marrakech to the South. Smallwood took this light colour palette with its combination of predominantly white walls with the blues of the zellij tiles, and other blue tones to create a contemporary interior that reflects a sense of place. The decorative zellij tile geometry, so often picked out in strong colours of red, yellow, white, blue and azure is reduced to simple white as a contemporary take on a heritage element and repeats across the finishes of the hotel. Pattern dominates rather than colour. The bar lounge as an example with its conservatory roof celebrates combinations of local patterns picked out in black and white while the blue of the sky gives the essence of colour that echoes the blues of the roofs of the villages that surround Sale. The guestrooms continue this design language with black and white carpet and simple arched openings to the bathroom vanity and bedroom lobby. Smallwood was also responsible for the design of all of the branded residences of 1, 2, 3 and 4 bedroom apartments and the crisp white design language with subtle local references follows through into all the units.
Smallwoods –7 Hailey Road Residence
The project consists of one of four villas on a large site in the embassy quarter of New Delhi. The architect had designed a neo-classical set of buildings and the client wanted this feeling to continue into the interiors. General public areas were laid out across the ground floor and Smallwood created a central sculptural stair that rose three floors to the private apartments above and acted as a central visual focus of the building. Smallwood clad the main lobbies is black filled travertine with inset panels and elsewhere light limestone predominates. This allowed the client a soft canvas against which he could place his art collection which included rugs, antique clocks and a range of fine paintings and sculptures from around the world. Each apartment floor was designed for a different member of the family and the interiors reflected their particular tastes while keeping within a general classic contemporary aesthetic.
Smallwoods –Waldorf Astoria
The Daman building opposite the Four Seasons Hotel contains both offices and serviced apartments and from level 18 upwards, the hotel and branded residences. The client wanted no arabesque references at all, a refreshing change in a city where they are abundant. Instead, the interiors were to reflect the 60s styling of the exterior of the building (by RMJM). He summed up the design brief. ”Make it look like the interiors in the Mad Men television series”. With such a clear design brief, the development of the design was a particular pleasure especially as the design team had a strong affinity for mid-modern design. The site was not without its challenges with all of the public spaces of sky reception, Peacock Alley, Cigar Bar, Lounge Bar, Spa and gym on one level with an overall length of nearly 100 metres and a depth of only 15m. Smallwood created zones through which the guest travels to maximize the useable space while avoiding long corridors. The floors are picked out in beige, white and tan marble while simple timber panels clad the walls. Simple blues and tans predominate with 60s styled FF&E across the spaces. The guestrooms have two distinct but related colour schemes with light limed oak for the executive rooms and light grey oak for the standard.
Smallwoods –Crowne Plaza Resort Phu Quoc
Smallwood‘s second project in Phu Quoc, the design brief was to ensure a cool contemporary resort aesthetic with subtle references to the locale of the island. Given the location, Smallwood chose light oak as the main timber finish with polished ceramics to the floors and simple white paint on the walls. Jute rugs, rough-hewn timbers and subtle blues of the sea gave a relaxing resort aesthetic and was in keeping with the client’s very limited budget.
Smallwoods –Mankhool Hotel
As a mixed-use project, the Mankhool development, situated behind the Burjuman Shopping Mall, comprises a hotel, serviced apartments, branded residences, and offices. Smallwood was to provide interior design services for all elements. The hotel and serviced apartments would follow an industrial ‘chic’ aesthetic, while the branded residences would feature a more typical contemporary styling that was felt was best suited to attracting new buyers. A third design scheme would be prepared for the offices with a contemporary slick theme. With its numerous restaurants, 3 Spas and multiple types of accommodation, Smallwood created two teams, one to design the industrial-chic elements of the project and another to design the branded residences and offices. The interiors of the hotel use exposed concrete, and rough-hewn timbers with terrazzo and polished concrete floors. As a counterpoint, the FF&E enriches the spaces with rich buttoned leather sofas and armchairs and soft fabrics and decorative lighting give a layering of detail and serve to soften the overall design. For the branded residences, simple painted walls and light oak floors gave a subtle palette for the owners to embellish with their own FF&E.
Smallwoods –Sovereign
Quickly establishing itself as one of the premier high-rise luxury residential addresses in Atlanta, Sovereign features 82 residences in a vertically stacked mixed-use tower. The public spaces at Sovereign were designed to introduce a level of sophistication and warmth appropriate to this exclusive residential environment. Open, organic spaces are defined with subtly curved walls, countertops, stairs, and other carefully placed interior architectural features. Rich materials and finishes were introduced to add warmth and are consistent with the otherwise clean, elegant lines throughout. The spaces are furnished with a variety of distinctive seating groups, decorative lighting, and hospitality amenities. The residential lobby experience begins on the ground level at the dedicated Sovereign lobby. The character of the residential entrance was intended to be discrete and exclusive. The seventeen-foot high walls of the lobby are a combination of East Indian Rosewood, Sandstone in a subtle basketweave, leather, and hand-troweled Venetian plaster that complement the vein cut silver travertine floors. World-class resident amenities are located on levels 28 and 29. These amenities provide the residents with a variety of intimate entertainment venues that may be used simultaneously. They include a clubroom, pool lounge, landscaped pool terrace, private club room, catering kitchens, conference room, guest suite, art gallery and wine storage room.
Smallwoods –ASG Residential
High-end serviced apartments are an expanding business in Jakarta and it was important for the client to keep the project branded as a four-star deluxe but with an individual design that set it apart from its competition. The apartments would be opulent in finishes and ambience with an eclectic mix of furniture and fabrics. If anything, the four-star branding was to relate to the size of the apartments rather than the finishes of the interior. Sophisticated linens are used as wallcoverings with contrast dark timber millwork and show wood to the furniture. Back walls to headboards are finished in bevel-edged mirrors and fabrics in muted greys and golds.

Contract Projects by El Equipo Creativo is going to be in our lenses today! We will be exploring 10 outstanding and unique projects, covering hotels and restaurants. El Equipo Creativo is a Barcelona based interior design studio founded by the architects Oliver Franz Schmidt,Natali Canas del Pozo and Lucas Echeveste Lacy, specialised in creating gastronomic, commercial and brand flag spaces.
Since the studio’s foundation in 2010, El Equipo Creativo has been creating several projects which have been recognised in various international interior design awards, such as Restaurant and Bar Design Awards, The Great Indoors Awards, FX International Award, Best of the Year Award and AIT Interior Contract Award.
Kimpton Vividora Hotel opened its doors in February 2020 in Barcelona’s vibrant and well known Gothic Quarter, hence the design for the hotel had to have harmony between the Ciutat Vella, an artsy neighbourhood with an old body and young soul, and a luxury Kimpton Hotel design. The Vividora offers different public spaces that invite both guests and locals to enjoy, meet and interact; all of these spaces are a reflection of the local lifestyle showcasing handcrafted elements, local brands and art and colourful ceramic patterns.
Hotel Axel Madrid
The objective was to create a hotel where one could breathe a free and fun atmosphere with a disruptive touch, which would invite different types of public to enjoy the public areas of the hotel. The rooms, following the same philosophy, would invite both resting and playing. In the suite rooms, all furniture items are separated from the walls, to leave their historical details visible. The bed, in the centre of the room becomes the main protagonist. The suite rooms are accessed through the bathroom, covered with a the golden ceramic skin.

Restaurants & Bars
Crazy Pianos
The reform of the well-known Crazy Pianos music club was the beginning of a new stage in its history. The new design should push their new commercial strategy, aimed at a more demanding audience from a wider age range. But without losing the essence of the original project: the music of two red life pianos and a fun, carefree atmosphere. El Equipo Creativo responded with a design rich in details and corners, full of winks and little crazy stories: an atmosphere that invites to get carried away and lose your mind. We conceived the space as a cinematographic sequence of a surreal film, which is gradually discovered as entering the venue. Each area is designed as a new scenography within this film.
Oassis Restaurant
Located on the emblematic Paseo de Gracia in Barcelona, Oassis Natural Cooking is in a relaxed, casual and fresh space: a pleasant oasis in the heart of the city. For its design, El Equipo Creativo drew inspiration from the terraces and inner patios of Barcelona’s superblocks, calm and relaxed places, spontaneous and full of vegetation. In these patios, we usually find an extraordinary mixture of textures and colours, typical of the party wall and the inner courtyards of the city: rough bricks, ceramics, lattices, concrete, worn paint and tiles. Colourful neon signs with ironic and funny messages provide the contrast point and inform the customers about the different gastronomic offers and bars of the restaurant. These add a young and modern touch to the interior.
One Ocean Club Restaurant
The aim of the design is to enhance the views and to surround the customer with the specific landscape qualities of its location by the water. Sitting in the restaurant should be like sitting on a yacht deck staring at the sunset. The architecture of the building resembles that of a pavilion by the water. El Equipo Creativo design tries to enhance this idea of Mediterranean pavilion, a space that blurs interior space and exterior terraces, with just some vertical elements, a white sun-protecting lattice and the most incredible views around us.
Tunateca Balfegó Restaurant
The purpose of the project was to design a gastronomic space that will promote red tuna as a quality product and, at the same time, make the brand known to the general public. The interior design is intended to become another element of communication regarding the world of the red tuna. Each of the zones reflects a different aspect of the product and its capture. The principal area or Blue Room transports us to the depths of the sea.
El Mama La Papa Restaurant
As the name of the venue suggests, El Mama – La Papa, El Equipo Creativo’s client wanted to create a space that played upon duality and the mixture of opposites. In addition to food and drinks, a burlesque show would be offered to introduce a party atmosphere and dancing. Guests are welcomed by four large neon signs displaying oxymorons: Never – Again; Peace – Force; Holy – Hell; Public – Secret. The starting point leaves no doubt. The building in which it is located, an old canning warehouse, is a space with a great deal of personality as far as structure is concerned. To reinforce the presence of the original structure we decided to paint it in a striking red colour that unites the different areas within the space.
Ikibana Restaurant
The fusion of Japanese and Brazilian cuisines introduced an interesting challenge in the design of the restaurant, a challenge based on the search of shared singularities between two cultures, antagonistic at first sight: quiet and minimalist the Japanese, lush and bustling the Brazilian. From the beginning, the idea of creating a landscape became the leitmotif of the project, since nature is a very important element in both cultures. The Ikebana, the traditional Japanese floral art to which the name of the restaurant refers, arranges small static compositions that simulate a movement and look for the right proportion, composition and balance between three elements: wood, leaves and flowers or colour. The restaurant design is based on these principles, seeking to create an artificial landscape in constant motion composed of natural and noble materials.
Andina Nothing Hill Restaurant
The objective of Andina Notting Hill was to celebrate the uniqueness and authenticity of Peru. The design creative process started with a trip to dive into the Andean culture and get inspired by colours, flavours, traditions and most of all by Picanterias, the restaurant at the heart of communities across the Andes. The Restaurant echoes the most traditional Peruvian Picanteria. El Equip Creativo proposed an open kitchen with light wood shelves, hanging pots and pans, plants, flowers and a dark orange rustic finish recalling the domestic hearth. Light oak lattices rise from the soft velvet banquette and create a screen on the ceiling, a modern homage to the common wicker of Andean Picanterias.
Bellavista del Jardín del Norte
Based on the premise of ‘a home away from home’ the design translates the idea of daily life and festive spirit of villages in Spain and all around the world. Bellavista del Jardín del Norte, meaning ‘Beautiful View of the Garden in the North’, references to the large garden in the back. This is a surprising oasis in the centre of Barcelona and inspired the name of the restaurant as if it was the name of a small town. The entrance greets guests with thousands of hanging flowers reminiscent of flower feasts.
