HOTEL LOBBY .04
OBJECTIVE/SITE
Advertisement
The objective for this project was to redesign a lobby for an existing hotel or to create our own brand. The site location stands in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The location stands directly within city center surrounded by sidewalks of heavy foot traffic. The lobby space is 4,800 sq ft. and contains multiple windows with one main entry and a service entry point. The goal was to not over crowd the space but to include multiple amentities.
CONCEPT DEVELOPEMENT/ INSPIRATION
My idea for this hotel was to create an exclusive branch from the famous Four Seasons named “Winter”. I thought this theme for the hotel would be appropriate given the Philadelphia winters. The hotel will accentuate a winter feel but also remain neutral year round. Since the hotel is boutique, it would offer an exclusive stay by serving a smaller sum of guests. The inspiration for this project was a combination of the winter season and the luxurious reputation of The Four Seasons Hotel.
BRAND/ LOGODESIGN
The design for the logo needed to be minimal and elegant.A simple snowflake will represent the theme of the hotel. The Four Seasons name will be included to identify this branch as part of the brand.
IDEATION: sketching + diagramming
Through rough sketches of ideas for this space, the main concept of luxury was found most important. After filtering those ideas, the separation of used versus transitional spaces made way for the layout plan. The lobby was to have a grand lounge area in the center with the reception/check-in desk directly across. Amentities in this space include a cafe, bar a nd gift shop.
