Second Floor

User Group Focus

Saleem

A major part of the hotel is the hotel staff. While designing we wanted to emphasize the accessibility and comfortability of the hotel staff. On our second floor, Saleem finds a staff lounge located conveniently off of the kitchen where he may grab a bite and that rest his feet for a moment. Considering the staff experience allowed for special features and the creation of spaces for the staff only.
