ELEMENT HOTEL Repositioning Global Prototype

Ensuring the guest experience is environmentally friendly and as holistic as possible As part of the repositioning of the Element Brand for Marriott International, our team was asked to analyze and evaluate the existing guest experience prototype and provide design solutions to enhance the brand’s performance. The resulting public space of the lobby now creates a more activated and profitable common space. The market comes to life with food carts and flexible crate merchandising. And, the new room model allows for the conversion of public space complete with a full kitchen, bar seating and a large dining table – good for meals or business meetings.

DAVIDSON CAMPUS S TORE Davidson, NC / 4,100 sf

Elevating school pride while creating an improved shopping experience Davidson County Community College wanted its campus bookstore to be student centered and create a sense of community. This expansion, which more than doubled the existing bookstore space, significantly improves functionality, and accommodates future growth. The design not only provides greatly needed space, it also creates a highly visible building that is directly connected with the student center, strengthening the existing student-centered space and promoting a sense of community.

The main focal point is a projected, large glass storefront that is on the main path of circulation to the student center entrance.
