Concept & Hotel Inspiration:

hotel concept:

The sojourner is a temporary resident in a distant land; someone who is far away from home; an adventurer. This hotel aims to be a peaceful oasis while guests are taking on their next journey.

design concept:

The design for The Sojourner is inspired by one of the largest music festivals in history, Woodstock. This event which began in the 70s was a unique experience where people united and celebrated their shared love for music. A retro, individualistic, yet elevated style will be employed to elicit a VIP experience.

THE SENSE CONSOLE

Concept: Reimagining the past with a modern twist, the retro console combines the charm of classic television sets with versatile storage options for modern living spaces. Design Inspiration: Inspired by mid-century Hisense television sets from the 1970’s, the cabinet doors and drawers are reminiscent of the speakers and knobs of the television. A modern take on the wooden vintage casing incorporates clean lines and edges to create an innovative and functional piece. Formica Integration: Formica laminate products were used for the flexibility and ability to form curves. Using the laminate allowed for a more free and organic shape in the design process.
