 Boutique Hotel
The Nomad Hotel

New York New York

The Nomad Hotel, located on 1170 Broadway, New York, New York, is a boutique hotel

that has 168 rooms. Amenities include a bar, restaurant, fitness center, laundry service, and

concierge service. French designer, Jacques Garcia, transformed the Beaux-Arts buildings

interiors into chic and modern spaces that blend European hospitality with a New York touch.

The suites include an iPod dock, flat screen TV, in-room safe, minibar, complementary

newspaper daily, ARGAN bathroom products, free internet access, showers in all suites, and a

clawfoot tub in some of them. The design of the spaces is very elegant, but with an edgy side. A

lot of the suites have a bathtub that sits right near the window and has no walls, only a folded-

screen divider, to separate the bathroom from the main living space. This adds to the edgy,

modern vibe of the design and creates a cozier atmosphere due to the smaller size of the suites.

The goal of the hotels design was to combine the old-world charm of classic European spaces

with modern elements and amenities. Hardwood floors in each suite adds a downtown-loft

aesthetic to the design as well.

Boutique hotels are quite different than other hotels. While most hotels are

larger in size and can hold well over 300 guest rooms, boutique hotels are smaller and more

intimate. The design is meant to attract very specific clients that have a certain aesthetic that

matches theirs. Typically, boutique hotels attract a more trendy, fashionable client who is
looking for a more design-savvy space to relax in and enjoy a more personal atmosphere. The

architecture and interior design of these hotels are very focused on a central idea and arent

trying to follow any trends in hotel design. Boutique hotels stand out more in their design

aesthetics (Anhar, 2001). The designers goal for this type of hotel is to stray away from the norm

and try to think outside of the box. While this type of design could possibly turn away customers,

it is meant to attract only those who understand and appreciate the design as a whole. Another

key feature in boutique hotel design is location. You often see boutique hotels in urban areas,

rather than rural areas. These hotels are specifically placed in convenient locations for the client

to be able to enjoy the best of both worlds, comfort and design, while being close to everything.

Disneys Grand Floridian Resort Hotel

Orlando Florida

A resort Hotels purpose is to to offer an escape from everyday life. (Hotel Design

Planning and Development, Penner) People visit resort hotels to enjoy the finer things in life,

certain luxuries that are not always available in their daily lives. Typical amenities include; spas,

dedicated services, and luxurious atmospheres. The brand identity and design aspects reflect this

fully in Disneys Grand Floridian Resort Hotel.

Figure 3 - <Disneyworld.disney.go.com>
 The hotel attracts very high-end clientele, celebrities, and executive families. The hotel

offers a theme of 19th century Victorian Sea Resorts with exceptional Disney Experiences. The

resort is dedicated to guest experience, offering all the luxuries of resort experience. It offers

exemplary amenities which include; one of the best spas in the area, high employee to guest

ratio, and outstanding views. The pricing of the rooms are based on the specific amenities of the

floor and room. The standard rooms offer obscure views of the Magic Kingdom park, however

deluxe rooms offer garden views and extraordinary views of the theme park.

Figure 4 - <Disneyworld.disney.go.com>
 The resort has many design elements for every guest. There are multiple buildings that

are 4 or 5 stories each and offer balconies where guests can relax and enjoy the views. The

architecture is period inspired by Floridas 19th century grand Victorian seaside resorts, complete

with white exterior trim and an impressive red shingle roof. It offers ornate details with

decorative lattice work, dormers and turrets. The resort can accommodate families in its 867

rooms complete with linens and dcor in a rich color scheme. Deep red, gold, and shades of

brown adorn every room. Standard rooms are approximately 440 square feet and include beds,

tv, daybed, reading chair, sofa, an office space, mini fridge, large dresser, and balcony.

Figure 5 - <Disneyworld.disney.go.com>
 The Disney theme park also offers a club floor that caters to its deluxe guest and offers

them wine and a special intake area. The guests are also provided with security with a guest list

and sublime service. Guests are also able to visit the park earlier and later than other guests and

may take the special resort shuttle and railway into the park. Staff members are stationed at the

entrance of the railway to ensure guests qualifications and is a special amenity for the guests.

Interview & Sketches

I was able to talk to an employee of a boutique hotel in Virginia. The hotel

is called the Alexandrian, and is located right outside of D.C. along the

Potomac River. The employees name is Rebecca Murray. The following is our

conversation:

How do you like the layout of the spaces in this hotel?

The layout is very nice, Ive worked here for about 5 years now and from day

one I was blown away with the design of the spaces and how they are

arranged. It seems to be effective since so many guests who stay here rarely

complain about anything!

Is the hotel accessible for all users? In other words, ADA accessible?

Yes! There are ramps for any changes in elevation so wheelchair users can easily

access any space within the hotel. The flooring is also a non-slip flooring so there

arent any problems with getting around for the elderly and handicapped. All of

our bathrooms in each suite are also compliant with grab bars and easy-to-turn

fixtures.
 2

Does anyone ever ask for directions for certain spaces? Or are there

plenty of signs to figure out the way?

Signage is something that I think isnt as noticeable here since there is such a

strong focus on the design aesthetic of this hotel. There are of course exit signs

and such, but I feel that they could incorporate more contrasting signs, for any

room, for those who have trouble seeing.

What do you think about the aesthetic of the hotel? Is it relaxing and

inviting? Or do you think the designer couldve done a better job?

I really love the design of the Alexandrian! Its very different than most hotels.

There is a warm, cozy feeling that you get as soon as you enter the lobby. I also

like the contrasting colors that are present in the reception area. The blue wall

color against the red desk is very interesting, but it works! Each guest suite is very

unique and interesting as well. Its all very relaxing and modern, but with

traditional touches. Im a fan!

Overall, she seemed to be really pleased with the Alexandrian. There

wasnt much that she said needed changed or added to the design of this

hotel. The only thing that she had mentioned was the signage in the space.

There werent enough signs in contrasting colors to help those who have trouble

seeing navigate through the spaces.

Interview & Sketches

I conducted my interview with Brittany Boyer the Assistant General

Manager for Hilton Garden Inn, in Findlay, Ohio. Brittany has worked in the

Hospitality industry for 10 years now and has been at her current job with the

Hilton for 6 years and just transferred here when ours opened. This is a new hotel

in Findlay and has only been open for about 8 months. The overall theme to the

hotel is a relaxing garden. One thing I noticed was the tile flooring is really

scuffed which is very strange since it is a new hotel.

How do you feel the configuration of the Hilton works or doesnt work?

The overall design and layout of the hotel is clean and easy to navigate

but there are a few things I would change, for example, what was the first

thing you noticed when you walked in? I responded by saying the

atrium. Thats correct, and while it is beautiful I feel like guests sometimes

have a hard time seeing the reception area because there is no direct

sightline to it from the doors. The other area that can be a problem is the

lounge and bar area, we are open to the public but there is very limited

seating so when we have a full house and the public both we dont have

enough seating or standing room and often we lose sales because of it.

Do your guests have trouble finding their way around the hotel?

The front entry is the largest problem area. There is no sign that tells the

guests where to check in at and often times they end up walking through
 6

the bar/ lounge areas before getting to the reception desk. Other than

that area the only other thing I would improve upon would be having a

sign pointing to the elevator, currently we have to reel off a list of

instructions to get the guest to their room.

Other than adding in extra signs is there any other way you think the hotel could

improve the flow?

Guests dont pay attention to the floor but if they would follow the tile it

would take them to the reception area. The bar and lounge has carpet.

Do you feel that there is enough room when you have guests with a disability

to move around?

Do you feel there is enough room for guests with disabilities to get around

comfortably in the hotel?

Yes, we often have guests in wheelchairs or older guests who have

walkers or other assistance items and we have created large walkways

and have one elevator which is extra-large to allow for wheelchairs,

luggage, and other guests to all ride at the same time. I am not sure why

both of our elevators are not oversize because when you do have

someone who needs the extra space you have to hope the correct one

comes down. Because the Hilton is not a new brand they have worked

out many of the problem areas over the years and are always happy to

go the extra mile and help their guests who may require additional
 7

services. We also offer vision and hearing-impaired suites that have

doorbells and flashing lights to alert the guests.

(Mary Santos)
University Place Holliday Inn
Charlotte, NC

The University Place Holiday Inn in Charlotte, North Carolina is very similar

to many other hotels in the sense that it is a place to stay away from home. The

hotel is a median hotel and is in no way considered upscale, however it is much

nicer than a motel. Rooms include a set of beds, desk, television, dresser, and

night stand with charging ports.

Questionnaire:

When did the hotel open?

The hotel is newer and opened less than 10 years ago.

Are the hotel aesthetics well generally well received by guests?

We like to think so! Its very modern and open.

How many guests can stay in the hotel?

There are over 170 rooms

How many of those rooms are accessible?

We have 10 wheelchair friendly rooms. We have other assessable features that

include the workout room and business center.

What amenities are offered?

 10

We have free internet and a breakfast every morning. We have a fitness center

as well as a business center.

Are there any renovation plans in the near future?

We just went under a renovation a few years ago so everything is pretty new!

What are the rooms like?

The rooms are modern with a dresser, tv, desk, beds, and charging stations. We

also offer Keurig coffee makers and a mini fridge in each room. The bathrooms

are modern as well with a large sink and a large shower with glass doors.

What type of guests do you typically have staying?

We currently have a large wedding party and we get all kinds of people;

families traveling and people on business trips. Were near the university so

college kids and their families are guests too.

What types of rooms do you offer?

We have standard rooms with double beds or king sized single rooms. We also

have a suite available.

What private rooms are in the hotel?

We have a laundry facility for laundering sheets and a kitchen for meal prep.
 11

The hotel is an immense structure with an inviting overhang for guests to

load and unload their cars. There is a hill leading up to the main door without a

curb so is wheelchair accessible, however the hill is fairly steep so I wonder how

accessible it would be if no parking spaces at the top of the hill are available.

There are no signs of handicap parking at the front of the building which is

problematic.

Upon arriving you are greeted by dual automatic glass doors with

luggage carriers on either side for easy access. Once inside of the building there

is a large open space with a reception desk to the right where guests may

check in. Directly adjacent to this area is a mini store where guests can buy

snacks, drinks, and personal hygiene products. Past this area is a large area with

tables and chairs which is connected to a nook that is utilized for breakfast. The

alcove is large providing counter tops around the 3 full walls and a partial wall

with a portion of countertop for a pancake machine. The smaller circular tables

are large enough for two guests each with a few larger rectangular tables that

can accommodate 4 people and more when pushed together. The style is

contemporary and aesthetically appealing. The dining area is finished with

carpet whereas the rest of the public spaces are adorned with glossy white tiles.

Adjacent to the dining area is an alcove with two large elevators that are

ADA compliant and large. There is contemporary wood paneling on both with a

single chrome bar leading around it. The buttons are low enough for accessible
 12

reach. Each floor of the hotel corresponds with the room number. On the first

floor are the 100s rooms, second floor the 200s, and third floor the 300s. There is

signage directing guest around the hotel and which area their rooms are with

arrows showing which rooms are in which direction. Upon exiting the elevator,

you see large painted numbers that correspond with the floor that you are

currently on. This is a clever wayfinding technique that will help guests finding

their location.

When you open your room door you walk into an opening where to the

left is a bathroom with a large counter, toilet, and a large glass shower. Walking

forward from the door there is a small nook with a cupboard, refrigerator, and

Keurig coffee maker. When traveling further into the room there is a large,

contemporary furnishing that is the same wood paneling as the elevator and it

includes a large wardrobe, tv stand with television, and a desk. On the opposite

side of the room there are two double beds clad in white sheets with the same

wood paneling connecting the two acting as a single headboard from one side

of the room to the other. In the center of this singular furnishing is a median sized

bedside table with a charging station complete with USB ports and outlets. To

the right of the furthest bed is a contemporary winged armchair. The wall

opposite to the entrance there is a single immense window with sheer curtains

and blinds within. On the sides of the window are heavier weight curtains to

block out sunlight.

 13

The overall appearance of the hotel and room is very appealing and is

adorned with a cohesive cool color scheme of blue, green, with neutrals of

brown, black and white. The space is very inviting and is well furnished,

especially for the middle-class clientele that they service. In my observations the

hotel offers a more pleasant and appealing environment that some older higher

starred hotels in the area and around.

Adjacency Matrix

Problem Statement
The New Wave Hotel is an innovative and business friendly place away from home. It is in

Phoenix, Arizona which is an up and coming business travel destination. New Wave offers approximately

60,000 square feet that offers its guests an oasis to work, sleep, and eat in. The guests can relax at the

bar and caf or workout in the fitness center provided to guest. The hotel brand is technologically
advanced and innovative and so the design will reflect this fully with easy to use devices to improve the

experience of its guest. Sustainable finishes will highlight the forward-thinking owners that this hotel

represents. The hotel will target businesses from around the world and provide them a luxury

experience that will help refer New Wave to potential clientele. The concept of the design for this luxury

hotel is to provide a relaxing upscale environment for individuals to work and experience the rich

culture that is in Phoenix. The calming color scheme contrasts the energetic contemporary experience

that the hotel will offer its guest.

Color scheme: Bringing a calming color scheme to a modern hotel. The colors chosen will

encourage relaxation and help to bring the outside into the hotel with the touches of live flowers that

reflect the color choices. These colors are also timeless which will allow the hotel to change the dcor

over the years and not have to do any major painting or renovations.

W2A2
Jesse Rotz

For each preliminary floor plan, I made sure to incorporate the following design elements to ensure each option would be appropriate for all kinds
of users
Custom front desk with a lowered height on one side for wheelchair users.
All hallways leading to spaces are at least 5 feet wide for wheelchair turnarounds.
There are no sudden turns that would be hard to maneuver around.
All ADA bathrooms have a 5 foot turnaround and grab bars around toilets, as well as roll-in showers.
The front entrance features a turnstile door along with double doors to ensure all users can enter without having trouble.
Every retail space option provides enough room for all users to move around comfortably within the aisles.
Some of the ADA guest suite designs provide pocket doors for easier access.
All doorways are at least 36 inches wide.
There are multiple means of egress per floor, and all of them are less than 75 feet from the closest space.

The hotel is to include a caf, a retail space, exercise room, 2 ADA guest suites, managers office, and 12 guest suites per floor. All design options
include these spaces. The public areas, (retail, caf, and lobby), are all located within the same relative area in order to maintain a consistent
separation between public and private spaces. The managers office is close by, but still remains cut off from the public spaces to allow for privacy
and concentration. The exercise space is located on the second floor and has ample room for all of the required equipment.

For the occasional guests that want to rent out a co-working space for a week of meetings, there are several spaces that are left unmarked for
multiple uses. These spaces can be found on either the first or second floors of the different plans designed. The spaces are large enough to
accommodate a big group of people, which makes these spaces perfect for large meetings.

For safety and security, fire alarms will be installed in every space, as well as, sprinklers. Each guest suite will have a card-reader to gain access to
the spaces. All interior finishes will be fire rated and durable to ensure minimal damage and risk in case of an emergency. Emergency lights will be
provided in each hallway as well in case the power goes out. And signage will be placed above every exit, public space, elevator, and turns in order
to help people navigate through the building. Doors will also be fire rated. Security cameras will be placed in every hallway and public space.
 Custom Desk Inspiration & Justification Statement
Figure 1 - < http://popartdecorations.com/fashion-
style/simple-and-functional-cubico-by-alessandro-di-
prisco >
This sculpture represents my ideas for the custom
desk that will be located in the hotel lobby. The
reason I chose this sculpture was because of its
minimalist form. I am a minimalist myself, so this
artwork really speaks to me. The straight 90
degree angles of both the vertical and horizontal
lines are simple, but give the sculpture some
visual interest. And the white color of the cube
gives this sculpture a pure and elegant look. This is
how I want my custom desk to look. The desk will
feature clean lines and neutral colors to create a
contemporary, minimalist, and understated
design that will draw the eyes of the guests as
soon as they walk in.
 Custom Desk 2D Sketches
The sketch above is one option for the
custom desk. There is a lowered
counter in the center for wheelchair
users, ample lighting provided from
the central chandelier and surrounding
track lighting. Recessed forms add
some visual interest to this desk. The
material that will be used for this
design is white-lacquered laminate and
white quartz for the countertops.
The sketch above and to the left are of
another option for the custom desk
design. This design features a rhythmic
pattern of overlapping forms made of
white-lacquered laminate. The lowered
counter height to the right of the desk
is for wheelchair users. And recessed
shelving on the back wall allow for
wayfinding and emphasis on this area.
Recessed lighting and pendants allow
for plenty of illumination here.

 Study Model #1

I feel that this first model could

use more wayfinding in the
background. Recessed shelving
along with downlights would help
provide this.
 Study Model #2

For this model, I think there should

be more desk wrapping around
both sides to provide more work
area. I feel that the abstract forms
in the desk should have lighting to
provide more wayfinding as well.

Lobby Sketches These sketches show the contemporary, minimalist aesthetic that was established
from the beginning. The clean-lined furniture, along with the contemporary art creates a very high-end
atmosphere that is both sophisticated, and relaxing. The use of recessed forms connects the design to
the custom desk that was designed. This helps further bring out the hotels brand and wayfinding. The
color palette is very neutral with pops of cool tones, blue, purple, and green, in the art.

Caf Sketches The caf perspectives show how the aesthetic from the lobby is still carried over to this
space. However, the color palette is changed to create a more enticing, and vibrant design that will
encourage appetite. The texture on the wall is a grass cloth wallcovering that will help diminish noise in
this space, as well as, add some visual interest to the dining area. Again, recessed forms in the wall
allow for art to be displayed and highlighted with recessed lighting inside.

Hotel Room Sketches These sketches show how the texture of the carpet plays off of the texture of
the wallcovering. The color palette is very calming and uses blues and greens to accomplish this effect.
The wallcovering will help maintain sound control in this space. All of these elements help to create the
minimalist, contemporary aesthetic that was developed in the design phase.

This custom desk has recessed abstract forms. This reflects the sculpture that I chose to use as inspiration for my design.
The right side of the desk is lowered, which allows wheelchair users to use the desk without feeling out of place. A lowered
ceiling provides a means of wayfinding and adds visual interest to the space. Recessed forms are mimicked in the back wall,
enhancing wayfinding as well. Everything is very minimalist and bright, which stays consistent with the original design
concept and inspirational sculpture. For security, cameras will be provided at both sides of the desk in the ceiling.

 Analysis Continued

After researching both furniture pieces and finish materials, I have come to realize that the two best
options are the sustainable armchair and the bamboo flooring. My reasoning for coming to this
decision was based off of the initial costs and the estimated life span of the products. Both
sustainable products last longer than their counterparts, which also ends up costing the client less
money in the long run due to their longer lives.

 Reflection

This class has given me a lot of information regarding hospitality design and I feel

all the more prepared for this type of design because of it. The three main

concepts that I feel will benefit me in the future are the following;

1.) Interviewing the client - It was so interesting to interview each client that

was part of this project and it really helped me get a sense for what the

needs of each person were. It also helps me figure out what areas need

improvement, or what the expectations are for the aesthetic of the

design.

2.) Study models Although Im still not as comfortable with making study

models, I feel that this is a great tool to use in order to get a sense of the

actual space and how the furniture arrangements work in each area. This

also allows for me to figure out new or different ways to address ADA

compliance and universal design.

3.) Providing multiple preliminary floor plans. While this may seem self-

explanatory, this process of creating multiple floor plans is a crucial part of

creating the perfect design for the client. It can be easy to think that your

first design is the best one, but upon further examination and exploration,

you can come across an even better option.

I feel very inspired and confident in the new tools Ive learned through this

course. From interviewing to developing the design concept, the whole

design process is something that should be taken seriously and is a crucial

part in developing the perfect design for the client. I have grown to

appreciate this type of design even more after taking this course. I also think

that creating perspective renderings really helps bring your vision to the client

as well. It can be difficult to explain to the client what your ideas are for a

space, but when you actually take the time to render the interiors, it allows

the client to see your ideas and understand your design.
