Boutique Design - Winter 2024 - 4

Shine
Bright
Welcome to our Winter issue and to the close of an exciting 2024! This has
been a transformative year, filled with groundbreaking openings, gamechanging
developments, and extraordinary design moments. Looking back at our two
signature New York events in November, we couldn't be more thrilled. BDNY
brought together a record number of industry professionals at the Javits Center,
eager to explore, connect, and learn. Meanwhile, the Gold Key Awards at Cipriani
42nd Street celebrated the very best in hospitality design from the past year.
These events are about more than showcasing stunning projects. We also
recognized the Boutique 18 class and the Up-and-Coming Hotelier of the Year
(learn more about them in our Fall 2024 issue), and fêted our Designer of the
Year, Goodrich, at the Gold Key ceremony. In fact, we sit down with founder and
principal Matt Goodrich and his team at the New York firm for our cover story
on page 51.
A huge thank you to the Gold Key Awards sponsors: Title: Valley Forge Fabrics
and VISO; Boutique 18: Nemo Tile + Stone; Designer of the Year: Akula Living;
Up-and-Coming Hotelier: Durato; Category: Akula Living, American Leather,
Bermanfalk, ICG Italia, Marc Phillips Rugs, Riva Spain, Saatchi Art, Waterworks,
and Williams-Sonoma Business to Business; Supporting: Danao, Faulkner+Locke,
Franz Viegener, and OW Hospitality.
The awards event also wouldn't be possible without the dedication of
our 2024 Gold Key judges, who you can meet on page 16, as well as all of the
deserving winners and finalists. This special issue is dedicated to celebrating their
exceptional projects.
BDNY was also filled with creativity. The Power Players: Women Leaders in
Hospitality breakfast, for instance, was a highlight, with panelists sharing insights
on their wide-ranging careers and the industry as a whole. Flip through the next
pages to see photos and moments from a weekend that left us all feeling inspired.
You'll also find the winners and finalists of the 2024 Best of BDNY Product
Design Competition on page 56. These innovative new offerings, selected by a
panel of industry experts, showcase excellence in both aesthetics and functionality.
Our team is already looking ahead to BDNY 2025-mark your calendars for
November 9-10, 2025! We'll give you an exclusive preview in the Fall 2025 edition
of Boutique Design. In the meantime, stay in the know on the latest projects,
products, and people we're following at hospitalitydesign.com. We look forward
to seeing you at our many other events throughout the year!
