Great Interiors always compel us to love a place more and we know the best place to see such, in hotels right? Some NYC hotels just boarded off mixing grandeur, style and comfort. While we are in love with the various design flavors every hotel gives, we can actually incorporate these hotel-interior ideas in our home.
Elle Décor welcomes us to graze on our own home and see a full light in applying these tips from Boro hotel designer Matthew Grzywinski of Grzywinski + Pons. Grzywinski's designs focus on to "create an atmosphere of cohesiveness and warm aesthetic while embracing the rawness of the project's bones."
1. Embrace the bones of your home.
Grzywinski's advice was, "to not only accept the existing materials and flow in our homes, but to actually put it to use."
Whether it'll be the old-fashioned wall color or the unfinished cement ceilings, by embracing the present look of your home and working on the imperfections may actually bring out unique design to inspire the whole home.
2. Make decor work double duty.
Our furniture and room accessories must also support multi-functionality. At the Boro hotel, Grzywinski said that, "The stair rails also act as table tops for the eat-in cafe and the large bookshelf also functions as a tripartite screen and a banquette."
3. Use real materials.
Gzrywinski opts for us to choose simpler and basic materials such as concrete, wood, leather and cork as these are more "versatile", tested with durability and he also said that it "leaves plenty of option to create a diverse range of colors, textures and temperatures that suit your taste and your space."
4. Experiment with textures.
In the Boro Hotel that Gzrywinski designed, we will see concrete and cinder blocks going great together, the key for it to work is "layering." These utterly stale industrial materials go great with warmer components like leather, cork, soffits and sisal.
