Wall Coverings
both elements, in the same warm color family makes the space cozy,
not chaotic. Dramatic drapery serves as a single soft counterpoint to
hard surfaces-wood floors and seating, sharp-edged mirrors and a
simply-dressed bed. The team also used the lighting to incorporate
a modulated version of the brand's playful vibe, albeit with a brainy
twist. In the bar, a crush of red hanging lanterns creates a sense of play
and movement while providing a warm glow," says Anwar Mekhayech,
founding partner, DesignAgency. "These lights also add Asian influence to the space-a nod to the nearby Chinatown-conjuring up the
Old World in a modern reincarnation, just as a pots-and-pans themed
light fixture in the cafe references 'Nona's Kitchen," he adds.
THE HIGHLIGHT REEL Color guests calm-it might just be their
happy place. Eschewing the Pop Art brights of many hostel rooms, the
team selected a serene set of green and blue tones for guest rooms.
THE TRAILER Adults are cool, too! With the recent explosion in
hostels' popularity among travelers selecting them by choice rather
than budget, more polished design is key to make guests want to come
back-and maybe bring their kids.
