Our design for Mix Design Collective explores sustainability and its importance on a commercial scale. We aspire to reinvent the traditional hotel room concept and create an oasis where one can find themselves exposed to experiences that allow recharging and resurgence of creative potential.

We welcomed the opportunity to challenge our creative thinking through our involvement with Mix Design Collective.

This exciting venture has enabled us to develop and push our boundaries through an experimental platform.
