Art Factory Hotels
Proposal
Overview
A new concept in urban hotels for edgy people who do not want to stay at The Plaza. Art Factory Hotels
will present an immediately different context from the standard bourgeois model. All living spaces are set up as artist's
lofts with mezzanine sleeping areas, large open areas and even a small high end kitchen. Combined with furnishing
and equipment typical for loft spaces, and a deconstructive look for walls, windows and ceiling, the Art Factory Hotels
room will be like staying in an artist's loft and not your parent's hotel. Art Factory Hotels will be located in emerging,
cutting edge areas of important cities. Public areas will reinforce the industrial look and incorporate a hot restaurant
and exciting bar. The exterior will have the look of a repurposed factory building.
All great hotel brands are performance art. They provide not just a bed but an opportunity to participate in
a bit of a fantasy. The Art Factory Hotels product will be aimed at the top of the market and will have room rates
competitive with the best hotels in town. The Art Factory Hotels demographic group being targeted is between 21 to
45. The Focus will be on guests who are able to afford the experience they want and creatively oriented. Despite the
artist loft look, the hotel will offer 5 star amenities including 24 hour room service, state of the art business center, gym
3
and extraordinary concierge services.
