HOKULANI WAIKIKI BY HILTON GRAND
VACATIONS CLUB
Talk about your blank canvas: Housed in a vacant high-rise
that had been stripped down to bare concrete, the new Hokulani Waikiki by Hilton Grand Vacations Club offered Indidesign
the opportunity to create a fresh take on an urban resort.
And because it's in Hawaii, sustainability played a central
role in the destination's design. "That's a given, as you're on an
island with limited resources," notes Beatrice Girelli, the Los
Angeles-based design firm's founder and design principal.
"We used as many natural and recycled materials in the
resort as we could, while also incorporating such features as
energy-efficient lighting and low-flow plumbing fixtures."
That green-oriented approach, which nabbed the resort
LEED silver certification, is immediately apparent at its entry
zone, which sits adjacent to a public escalator. To help demarcate that transition area from its surroundings, designers
installed a tiered ceiling vestibule lined with a water wall, rough
stone surfaces and fire boxes.
In addition, LEDs bathe the walls in purple, blue and
orange hues. "The idea is to make guests feel they've entered
a private club that's far removed from the hustle-and-bustle
of the adjoining outdoor shopping mall," says Girelli.
To enter the resort's 12,000-sq.-ft. lobby, guests go through
a set of interior doors made of reclaimed driftwood. The
lobby itself is dominated by such architectural materials as
natural walnut and gray basalt.
Indidesign also incorporated a variety of custom features
throughout the space, including island-oriented graphics on
the layered glass wall behind the front desk and a long, custom
sculptural bench that serves as a barrier between the lobby
and an adjoining terrace without interrupting the sight lines.
Designers envisioned the terrace as an outdoor enclave, as it is
essentially "flooded" by raised waterfalls and pools that sit
above the lanai seating.
The resort's 143 guest suites follow a color and materials
palette similar to that of the public spaces, with an intermingling of rich woods and bright textiles made of natural fiber
components. "Our goal was create an urban oasis that's both
soothing and sustainable, and I think we succeeded on both
counts," says Girelli.
