Learn how to incorporate nature into your hotel.
Incorporating natural elements into hotel interior design is one of the most significant trends this year, and there’s no end in sight. With consumers increasingly aware of environmental impact and growing interest in supporting green businesses, this is a trend that can’t be missed. While green building and sustainable design are slightly removed from the interior design, there are ways to incorporate the natural trend for great visuals.
Find Natural Elements
As you begin, it’s important to take a look at the style of the hotel as a unit and at the environment around you. Using these as a jumping off point you can begin to consider the types of natural materials to use. Wood, cotton, leather, wicker, and seagrass are all tremendous natural elements that help to craft an overall image.
Try A Wood Finish
One of the most classic natural materials, wood offers nearly endless design options while creating the natural effect you’re craving. Well, finished wood has a natural warming effect that instantly makes a space feel more inviting. Adding natural ceiling beams to your lobby, for instance, can create a welcoming feeling that can transition from rustic to refined, to mid-century-modern depending on the finish and surrounding design.
Switch To Wooden Furniture
As you consider the furniture to place in your communal spaces and rooms, wood is always a great option. Not only is it often more durable, but wood furniture also can be refinished and quickly restrained. Which means you will have better long-term reliability from the furniture you are placing.
Add Natural Elements To The Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the most crucial places to focus your design. A well-designed bathroom can help amp up a guest’s stay from ordinary to extraordinary. Consider natural stone or stone-inspired flooring and bathroom tiles. Adding wooden features with cedar can create a sauna effect that will win the hearts of all your guests.
Keep It Within Budget
While costs for natural items can add up, consider what they might save you long term. Wood furniture, for instance, will need to be replaced less frequently and may save you money long term. Likewise, quality flooring and tile can last much longer than laminate or vinyl alternatives. At the same time, if the budget doesn’t allow for these items right away, there are plenty of imitation floorings and tiles that can create the same look at a fraction of the price.
