Hotel room design trends change with time. But today will always be contemporary.
Today’s styles in contemporary commercial furniture emphasize an understated elegance. Consider consumer values. Most hotel guests want:
-
To relax in luxury but not be overwhelmed by it
-
To disconnect while staying connected to the digital and social world around them
-
Sustainability and energy efficiency
Simple is better. But that doesn’t mean you can’t be creative as a hotel designer.
These 3 creative contemporary commercial furniture designs were each supported by this hospitality furniture manufacturer.
