Focus on the Guest Experience: Consider the guest journey and experience when designing the hotel interior. Create welcoming and functional spaces in the reception area, lobby, guest rooms, dining areas, and other common areas to ensure guests feel comfortable and at ease during their stay.

 

Comfortable and Functional Furniture: Choose furniture that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also comfortable, durable, and functional. Opt for high-quality pieces that enhance the overall design while providing comfort and practicality for guests.

 

Lighting Design: Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the mood and ambiance of the hotel. Incorporate a mix of ambient, task, and accent lighting to create a warm and inviting atmosphere in different areas of the hotel. Use natural light whenever possible to enhance the overall experience.

 

Quality Materials and Finishes: Select high-quality materials and finishes that are durable, easy to maintain, and visually appealing. Consider using materials like wood, stone, glass, metal, and luxurious fabrics to elevate the hotel's design and create a sense of luxury and sophistication.

 

Color Scheme: Choose a color palette that complements the overall design concept and evokes the desired mood and atmosphere. Consider using neutral tones as a base and adding pops of color through accents, artwork, and decor to create visual interest.

 

Art and Decor: Incorporate artwork, decorative elements, and accessories that enhance the hotel's aesthetic and create a sense of place. Consider showcasing local artwork, cultural artifacts, or unique decor items that add character and charm to the space.
