14 "Out of the Box" Hotel Design proposals at 100% Hotel Show 2022- Vote for your favorite!

The constant search for ways to make a Hospitality Unit stand out can't help but include the field of Architectural Design, with many Hoteliers looking for, or being receptive to, "unexpected" or "unconventional" ideas. The 100% Hotel Show, in collaboration with Archetype Architectural Magazine, presents 14 such ideas.

Tourism trends in recent years have made concepts such as "Unique Experience" (in terms of what the guests of a Hotel -are- supposed to experience) or "Unique Storytelling" (about the concept of a Tourism Unit) particularly familiar. The common word between these two contemporary tourism trends (Unique), highlights the need to search for a "uniqueness" that will result in serious competitive advantages over similar Hospitality Businesses.

The 100% Hotel Show, considering that Architectural Design, obviously can (and should) play a serious role in the search for this uniqueness, has collaborated with the Architectural e- magazine Archetype, creating the Design Competition "Out of the Box ... In a Box". Through the Contest, ideas and approaches were sought that respond to the above mentioned data, contributing to the reinterpretation of the overall experience of the guests of a Hospitality Unit, as well as going beyond the usual approaches of meeting the needs of the Hotel, seeking the unconventional, with application to the reality of 2022.

The proposals submitted in the framework of the Competition had to meet two criteria:

they had to be able to be classified as unconventional (Out of the Box), but they had to be directly implementable within a Hotel Unit and they had to be able to fit into specific dimensions (In a Box).

The Competition also foresaw two categories of application of the proposals:

a) Design of a specific structure that can be used by a Hospitality Unit and b) Design of spaces of a Hotel Unit.
