hotel public spaces

RVD ASSOCIATES
Future Forward 	
The lobby is the epicenter of a hotel. With its local cultural
excitement and affectional greetings, hoteliers understand
its significance to their brand. Our design elements
integrate antibacterial materials that subliminally guide
while maintaining proper social distancing for guests and
employees alike.
Copper is used for the critical lobby surfaces: reception
desks, screens separating the reception areas, work
surfaces, in the co-working area, and the tabletops in
the lounge. Copper and its alloys-containing natural
antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties-allow not
only for a safe environment but timeless natural beauty.
Copper inlays, incorporated into the flooring patterns,
subtly encourage guests to maintain a 6-foot distance.
This pattern becomes an integral part of the overall
design, yet feels timeless and subtle. Contemporary wing
chairs provide barrier protection and personal space from
the elements. All furniture upholstery is done in bleachcleanable fabrics, and seats are placed close enough for
interaction while still maintaining recommended distance.
Large potted trees and greenery, thoughtfully placed,
act as a respiratory function and as a mood booster and
stabilizer in large open spaces. At the reception desk are
touchless hand sanitizer dispensers and custom boxes for
wipes and tissues. Transparent glass screens are installed
in high interaction spaces to avoid bacteria transfer for the
safety of guests and employees.
Custom stations with antibacterial wipes and touchless
trash bins integrated into the column poles also provide
decorative lighting. Custom sanitizing stations placed at
all points of contact and intermittently throughout the
lobby space create ease of access. Each station includes a
touchless hand sanitizer dispenser, a dispenser for wipes,
and a small no-touch trash bin for disposal.
With an eye on the future, our overall design strategy is
subtle, elegant, optimistic, and timeless. ❙❘❚
