NEWH - Summer 2021 - 81

PROJECT | PORTOLA HOTEL & SPA

This page: A second bunny relaxes at the bar; a chandelier in the atrium is designed to resemble molten glass.
This page: RoseBernard embraced the many different room layouts, imbuing them with eclectic
furnishings, including chaise lounges and elements of California oak,

All of them, however, were luckily endowed with underused Juliet balconies and
shutters that the team painted a crisp white.
An aura of lightness was ramped up by embracing California oak, weaving in a
bright salmon hue, and nestling beds against sprawling woven fabric headboards.
Above them, dreamy custom watercolors blending shades of azure and aquamarine
are printed onto wallcoverings, a collaboration between RoseBernard Studio and the
San Francisco consultancy Curate Art Group.
Because the Portola Hotel & Spa is adjacent to the Monterey Conference Center,
Polacek anticipated a mix of business travelers and Bay Area weekenders checking
in, so the furniture choices-including a chaise longue that overlooks the water-are
intentionally eclectic. It's a vibe that sums up the overall layout. In the hotel's former
incarnation there were around 250 different room types, so RoseBernard Studio was
challenged to conjure a sense of unity within these spaces, making them feel, says
Polacek, like " brothers and sisters, while allowing us to be quirky. "
