Guests & atmosphere
The people you want to attract, the character of your property and the way you welcome them give the design its direction. Layout, light, materials and furnishings turn that brief into an atmosphere.
All services
AD’ / Hospitality
Designed around the guests you want to welcome.
Understanding your guests shapes the design from the beginning. Our experience with private clients and luxury hospitality informs how we approach privacy, personal attention and the pleasure of spending time in a place.
We work with owners and operators to translate that understanding into interiors with a distinct identity, shaped around the guests they want to welcome and the service they want to offer.

The brief
What should the
interior make possible?
Guest use & daily operation
The brief needs both perspectives. We discuss seating, privacy, circulation, cleaning and maintenance with the client and operator, then coordinate relevant requirements with the appointed specialists.
Details before the works
Samples, bespoke drawings and supplier proposals need decisions at the right stage. We develop the interior packages and review their interfaces with the wider project team.
Selected work
A spa, a restaurant, a place to gather.
At Hotel Eden in Rome, we led the Spa redesign from concept through handover. Stone, glass and lighting were developed together, including the illuminated display joinery. KOI Restaurant in Bangkok starts from another kind of hospitality: arrival, the bar, conversation and the atmosphere of dining after dark. Each brief asks different questions of the interior.

Working together
At your property.
With your team.
We work with owners, operators and their appointed architects, engineers and delivery teams. At the outset, we establish the guest experience, operational requirements, existing conditions and next decision milestones. For a refurbishment, access, surveys, approvals and the proposed works programme form part of that conversation. Site visits and reviews are planned around the appointment.
Discuss the appointmentBefore we begin
Your project,
your starting point.
Do you work only on hotels?
Our hospitality work includes hotel spas, restaurants, bars, lounges and banquet spaces. The brief and operating model determine the design scope; a focused refurbishment and a complete interior need different appointments.
Can you join before a refurbishment begins?
Yes. Existing plans, photographs, operational requirements and the intended programme help us identify which surveys, design decisions and specialist input are needed before the works.
What should we include in a restaurant or bar brief?
Send the location, current plans, restaurant concept, intended seating capacity and target opening or refurbishment date. Explain how guests and staff should move between arrival, dining, the bar and service areas, and who is developing the kitchen and building services. Existing constraints and specialist requirements help us define the interior design scope and the team needed.
Can you support a team that already has a design?
Design Direction can guide ongoing design decisions; Technical & Project Review can examine a defined package of drawings, specifications or supplier proposals. Furnishing & Procurement can also be appointed separately.
