Although the concept of experiential design exists for a while, it has gained more importance in recent years in the hospitality industry. Hotels have shifted their focus toward creating an environment that impacts the guest experiences in spaces. The experiential design transforms spaces into immersive environments. It awakens the senses and builds memories by creating alluring experiences. Ar. Anil Badan, of Studio B Architect, discusses how experiential design is changing the Hotel industry in this article.
Design for Wellness
A well-designed hotel interior has been demonstrated to improve the mental health and well-being of the guests. From ensuring a perfect lighting scheme to cutting-edge fitness equipment, we always consider infinite factors to ensure the wellness of customers. Firstly, creating communal spaces will encourage people to interact and build a sense of community. From yoga studios to shared dining experiences, the design of hotels should reimagine the communal areas that ingrain themselves in the memorable experiences, more than just providing beds and boards. Secondly, Biophilic design in guest rooms and communal spaces harnesses the feeling of harmony with nature created by a long walk or gazing at a beautiful landscape. It could involve the introduction of lush greenery or the selection of organic prints and floor covering that mimics nature.
Showcasing local
Local touches are popping out in the hotel design everywhere. There is a growing emphasis on artisanal, handcrafted, and locally sourced products in the hotel industry. We reflect the essence of local culture in every element of design and decor. This thus encourages an immersive experience for luxury travellers into the local ethos. If a hotel is circumferenced by iconic architecture, the hotel should also feel the same, be it sweeping high ceilings or intricately woven corridors. Enriching the local culture in the hotels can end in a positive experience for the guests and keeps in line with one of the progressive movements of the hotel industry
Green design
We aim to provide the best possible experience to the guests. The choice of sustainability is not a challenge for us. Many opportunities are available from fixtures to furniture. Fixtures such as programmable temperature control taps, mood lighting, and energy-efficient LED lights are not only sustainable but also support guest wellness and experience in the hotels. Material choices in furniture and decor can help with place-making. They tie guests to the local environment, while creating a more community-focused sustainable experience. An inclusive green design that ensures the comfort of the users will help the environment and complement the guest experience.
Co-work and Co-live
One of the most pioneering trends that are emerging in the hotel industry is the growing number of co-working and co-living hotels. This trend creates spaces for work and play that spring out from the guest’s desire to engage with the public. It shifted its primary focus from guest rooms toward common spaces. These include the lobby to enhance social engagement and entertainment. The lobby and the surrounding area become incredibly important in enhancing the guest experience.
The hotel industry focuses constantly on the future. It always looks out for innovative ways to enhance the guest experience. This in turn keeps their guests loyal to get back to their doors. We, Studio B Architects, as pioneers of Hospitality design, always strive to stay ahead of the future trends in hospitality.
