Hotel Design: Dream Downtown Hotel

© Bruce Damonte

The Dream Downtown Hotel is located in the Meatpacking District, NYC. I love the hotel's futuristic inspired look. It looks like such an upbeat and exciting place to stay in the big apple! (ABOVE) I love the mix of wood and stainless steel. It's chic, and the wood brings a great level of softness to the facade. (BELOW 1) The hotel's circular theme design is absolutely amazing. I love how it's not only the steel facade that carries the circular design, but also the doors, windows, etc,. (BELOW 2) Once you enter the wood front doors of the hotel, you are engulfed in deep wood tones and circular shapes. The front desk is my favorite design element in the lobby. I love it's shape and originality. (BELOW 3) In the lounge the dark woods, and circular theme continues. In this space, I am a huge fan of the walls of windows. What a great place to soak in the village. (BELOW 4) The outdoor pool deck is a great place to soak in the hotel's stunning architecture. What do you think of the Dream Downtown Hotel?

If I had the opportunity to design the hotel's suites, I would continue the circular theme and bring in a few contrasting shapes and colors. The mid-century Art Deco rug is from Nazmiyal. I love the pops of color. It has a futuristic vibe, and would look perfect in a city-style hotel. The Vistosi chandelier is from Orange. The circular shape lights are very much in line with the hotel's theme. The hand painted plate is from Astor Place. The design would look perfect for a painting, pillows, etc,. What are your thoughts? You can add as little or as much to your space as you want. Don't follow rules, just do.
