6、tes Differentiate your property with custom designs Start to finish customization process of 16 weeks Trusted by professionals for 70 yearsto CreationCIRCLE NO. 118Last month I had the opportunity to visit the new Home2 Suites by Hilton brands “Oasis” lobby and guestrooms. The experience was especia
7、lly interesting, given that the first property, slated for Fayetteville, N.C., will not open until later this year.I was at Hiltons corporate offices in Mem-phis, where the brand has built out the Oasis lobby inside one of their buildings, allowing franchisees, investors and employees to really touc
8、h and seeand, of course, tweakwhat previously had been seen only in renderings. A few miles away at the Shady Grove Hampton Inn, Hilton has dedicated a cluster of fifth-floor rooms for several of its brands to construct and test guestroom prototypes. The Home2 studio suite room is a model of efficie
9、ncy, with clean lines and zero clutter. (Both the rooms and lobby were created by Cincinnati-based FRCH Design Worldwide.) Dawn Koenig, VP of brand performance sup-port for Homewood Suites & Home2 Suites by Hilton, says there are three different color schemes, three wood grain colors and enough flex
10、ibility for what she calls “controlled choice.”I wasnt all that wowed by the guestroom renderings when they were unveiled more than a year ago, but standing in the spaces and walk-ing around the room changed my opinion. The studio suite I saw is a mere 323 square feetbut it felt open and spacious, a
11、 tribute to the design team.Hilton estimates that between 75 and 100 potential franchisees have visited the test spaces. Theyve had everyone from Hilton IT employees to hospitality management students come through the lobby. It was interesting to hear how open the Hilton team was to modify-ing the d
12、esign. Having the prototypes helped designers and owners see what needed work.For example, installing corkboard behind each guestrooms “working wall” was a main design element early onbut in practice, the team realized how difficult it was for local con-tractors to accurately cut the cork to fit pro
13、p-erly. Synthetic grass that adorned the top of the lobbys banquette was phased out, due to the cost ($1,500) and cleaning issues.Franchisees come in and see operational problems that can be solved before the specs are worked into dozens of propertiesrecycling bins that are too heavy for associates,
14、 louvers that will catch dust, white chairs that will make maintenance a nightmare, slots in a picnic table that will collect who-knows-what from guests.While much of the design for Home2 was engineered to appeal to female Generation Y travelers, Bill Duncan, VP of marketing and sales for Homewood S
15、uites & Home2 Suites by Hilton, says feedback has shown that both younger and older consumers, male and female, are impressed.“Strong design can cross generational lines,” he told me. “This is very eclectic, but its also soothing.”Most brands dont have the time to con-duct such extensive tweaking fo
16、r launches or relaunches after the initial consumer research and design phases. So despite the economic environment in which Home2 launched, maybe the timing will end up as a long-term positive for the brand.

33、 102Trendlines: SpaPublic Relaxation8 Hotel Design | JUNE 2010Spa treatments have their roots in many ancient Asian and European cultures, and because of their deep spa heritage, those regions are pioneering most of todays innovative spa techniques.For example, the bathhouse experience is an early E
34、uropean tradition, according to Eva Jensch, principal of the SpaSense Group LLC. Bathhouses incorporated different alcoves for bathing and stone slabs for the eras “spa-goers” to be scrubbed by attendants. These concepts have evolved over time and are now being done in a much more contemporary way i

36、 run by computers. Its not that the individual treatment room is dead, but the public areas take the priority. “Those cultures have a much longer history in bathinga culture that developed over the years,” Jensch says. “Those cultures have stimulated these trends, so hotels are trying to be more tim
37、ely and contemporary and trying to modernize those.”WWW.WALTERSWIC KER.C OMW A L T E R SW I C K E RINI N T E R I O REXE X T E R I O R75YEARSCIRCLE NO. 12010 Hotel Design | JUNE 2010trendlinesVilla & Hotel Majestic, ParisDebuting in January, The Villa & Hotel Majestic offers a 4,800-square-meter spa

Now there are snow rooms being built next to saunas to modernize the classic exchange from hot to cold.O
40、ther updates to old tech-niques include contemporary ar-chitecture, LCD TVs and displays and LED lighting. “In the salt saunas, we put salt blocks with lighting behind them to shine through the salt,” Jensch says. “It evaporates the salt and the lighting also creates a mood and feeling in the sauna.

The room has a really relaxing vibe to it.”But its a relaxing vibe that all guests can share at the same time.“After you get a treatment, the last thing you want is to go back to the real world, so we offer this chill space to spend as much time as you want. You might spend
45、the time alone, reading, snoozing or talking with friends.”Chris CrowellMandarin Oriental, Las VegasThe Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Las Vegas, is 27,000 square feet and embraces a 1930s Shanghai design scheme.
