Sleep Hotel 2013 Creative Brief
You are invited to refurbish a junior suite within a building that was completed in 1966 as a purpose-built hotel, located on the western edge of central London. At the time, its architecture was considered leading-edge; its style optimistic and unashamedly modern. In its heyday, the hotel was the haunt of headline-grabbing artists, fashionistas and trend-setters, but its celebrity status dwindled in the 1980s since when the interiors have had only superficial investment. Last year, the hotel was acquired by a new owner with a passion for reinventing the fortunes of significant buildings and a fascination for the era of its construction. This was the time when Britain finally emerged from post-war austerity, when mass production was making itself felt in peoples homes and the term Pop Art was coined to describe an artistic movement that for the first time expressed popular culture. Pop Art was a rebellion against the artistic and social norms that had previously existed, and sought instead to harness the new media and technologies that were rapidly changing the western world. Your client wishes to capture this radical spirit in his rejuvenated hotel. He is not seeking a 1960s pastiche but rather an interior design, which takes its cue from the building and its cultural heritage and reinterprets this provenance into a relevant contemporary experience. The client has not yet decided whether to approach an international hotel brand or an independent hotel management company. The hotel will comprise 400 rooms of which 32 are suites. The average length of stay is anticipated to be 1.7 nights and the ADR approximately 300-350. Within a total area of 30 sqm, your junior suite concept will include: Bedroom area Sitting area Dining area Work area (which may be combined with either the sitting or dining area, or both) Bathroom
