special feature office space
Starlab for Starwood Hotels &
Resorts, New York
Why: Starwood Hotels & Resorts' new
46,000-square-foot space in Manhattan's Garment
District is not a typical office. Instead, as its
name suggests, it's an innovation lab that brings
together "a cross-section of the company's digital,
design, and brand teams to think differently
about how we provide our guests with a better
way to experience the world," says Mike Tiedy,
Starwood's senior vice president of global brand
design and innovation. Designed by Starwood's
in-house creative team along with VM Studios,
it's an upgrade from the company's former
Tribeca office, and it follows the recent opening of
the Starwood Experience at the company's global
headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut; just as
that is the first LEED Platinum building in the
state, Starlab is also seeking LEED certification.
Aesthetic: The idea: immerse employees as
well as owners and developers into the Luxury
Collection, St. Regis, W Hotels, and Le Méridien
brands via suites meant to evoke the ethos of each
one. A revolving art installation dominates one
wall in the W suite; Le Méridien's midcentury
modern design plays out in the carefully curated
chairs and full-length mahogany mirrors leaning
against a brick wall; the Luxury Collection suite
has the feel of a modern study with a natural slab
wood table as its centerpiece; and the St. Regis
room is decked out in bespoke silver figured
sycamore.
"The office brings together multiple
departments to collaborate and leverage different
strengths to solve challenges," says Tiedy. "We
hope Starlab inspires our designers to think more
like marketers, our marketers to ideate more like
tech startups, and our tech teams to communicate
more like storytellers." To that end, workspaces
foster collaboration-modular seating areas with
banquettes for smaller groups and a library for
informal meetings with bleacher-style seating
and flexible tables. "Keeping our talent motivated
and inspired furthers the success of our brands
and our company," he says.
Highlights: High-touch and high-tech
merge throughout. There's a smart mirror
displaying Starwood's latest video news; a digital
chandelier hanging above the staircase made
up of newsticker-like chrome-encased blades
showcasing guests' tweets; and five digital feed
chrome frames that rotate guests' Instagram
posts in a gallery-style space next to the
communal dining area.
