Book excerpt: There is a huge competition between the business resorts and hotels for the sophisticated cadre of travelers all over the world. The operators and developers in hotel industry look forward to interior designers and architects for creating interesting and unique experiences for their guests. For many decades, the hotel industry had primarily focused upon the operations and functionality. The concept of designing and development of a hotel is rooted in the ethnicities of hospitality to the travelers, which dates back to the ancient times. Various kinds of hotels have evolved in many different countries. The interior styling and designing of hotels are very diverse and numerous variations are there like inns, motels, hotels and spas and resort. Many different aspects influence the sense of a place like small details of furnishing, interiors, buildings, and landscapes. In most of the today's high-end developments, a guest room can be a conventional serviced apartment or a hotel room, and even a phenomenon, which has changed the standalone hotel to a mini-community having, lots of different uses. From an architect's perspective the apartment unit or a guestroom is the core building block, which sets a structure for the building. Since architects are involved in the projects of hospitality for decades, it is a fact that there is no "one size for all" in the hotel industry. Thus, this book will serve the main purpose of guiding as to what is hotel development, planning, and designing. The most happening and unique interiors of a hotel transform a simple stay into a successful and unforgettable experience and makes the guests as the drivers of this journey. In a small frame of time, internet has emerged to become the main source of communication for the development team of the hotels and guests. Rapid advancement in technology has supported the implementation of sustainable practices in operations and design. While detailing the activities, the allocation of space and relationships in the building along with an excellent and resourceful program provides aids in establishing the way a building is situated on a site. The summary of all the space allocation, relationships and activities in a hotel is known as design philosophy or design brief and a building program. This book brings to the readers the planning and development of hotel property, the philosophy behind the designs of a hotel and the types of hotels, which will include the hotel designing for differently abled people. In the later sections, it will also talk about the market analysis and financial feasibility along with the prevalent risks and opportunity in the hotel industry. Above is a very simple sketch of the book on Hotel Planning, Design and Development and a complete study has much more to offer. I look forward to the reader for achieving value-based results by using the techniques and methodologies prescribed in the book. The constructive criticism and the feedback would be most welcome.

Download or read book Housekeeping by Design written by David Brody and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2016-10-17 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A mattress, box spring, and duvet for a king-size hotel bed weighs in at 225 pounds. Imagine trying to wrestle with changing the sheets and getting the hospital corners just right; it is easy to see why hotel housekeepers experience back and shoulder injuries at increasing rates. David Brody got behind the scenes at the Chicago Hyatt Regency and the Starwood hotels in Hawaii, bypassing management and corporate press releases to interview the housekeeping staff directly. Given Brody s expertise in architecture and design, his mission here is to help us understand service design in hotels in order to situate the needs of hotel customers, housekeepers, and hotel management one relative to the other. What unfolds as a new perspective on hotels is designin terms of spaces, products, maintenance, and workflow systems. We get vivid examples of how a hotel room s design encapsulates a highly orchestrated, hidden process of management and labor, where work is invisible and surface appearances are paramount to the guest s sense of domestic comfort. ( Turndown service is one exampleroom light dimmed, drapes drawn, music on classical, turndown mat on floor, slippers in place, mint on pillow, etc.) Brody opts strongly for what he calls co-design, which means collaboration between workers and management on improving hotel design, and he is unabashedly partisan in taking sides with hotel workers and their unions. He also advocates for sustainability and green politics."

Download or read book Hotel Chelsea written by Colin Miller and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An immersive photographic tour of the legendary Hotel Chelsea, whose residents share their spaces, their stories, and a delirious collective history of this landmark. Jackson Pollock, Robert Mapplethorpe, Patti Smith, Dylan Thomas, Arthur Miller, Bob Dylan, Arthur C. Clarke, Andy Warhol, William S. Burroughs, Janis Joplin, Eugene O'Neill, Rufus Wainwright, Betsey Johnson, R. Crumb, Thomas Wolfe, Jasper Johns—these are just a few of the figures who at one time occupied one of the most alluring and storied residences ever: the Chelsea Hotel. Born during the Gilded Age and once the tallest building in New York, the twelve-story landmark has long been a magnet for artists, writers, musicians, and cultural provocateurs of all stripes. In this book, photographer Colin Miller and writer Ray Mock intimately portray the enduring bohemian spirit of the Chelsea Hotel through interviews with nearly two dozen current residents and richly detailed photographs of their unique spaces. As documented in Miller's abundant photographs, these apartments project the quirky decorating sensibilities of urban aesthetes who largely work in film, theater, and the visual arts, resulting in deliriously ornamental spaces with a kitschy edge. Weathering the overall homogenization of New York and the rapid transformation of the hotel itself—amid recent ownership changeovers and tenant lawsuits—residents remain in about seventy apartments while the rest of the units are converted to rentals (and revert to a hotel-stay basis, which had ceased in 2011). For the community of artists and intellectuals who remain, the uncertain status of the hotel is just another stage in a roller-coaster history. A fascinating portrait of a strand of resilient bohemian New Yorkers and their creative, deeply idiosyncratic homes, Hotel Chelsea is a rich visual and narrative document of a cultural destination as complicated as it is mythical.
