Our in-house design team, led by Creative Director Jacu Strauss, are inspired by our buildings, their history and the neighbourhoods in which they are located.

Our hotels are as different as the cities and neighbourhoods in which they are located, and their storied designs takes their cue from their unique sense of place.

We think about every detail. For us, good design is not about stamping our own “look” on every project; instead, it’s about breathing new life into a building and creating spaces that work.
