W Dubai – The Palm
For the W Dubai – The Palm, we looked to the iconic features of the Middle East for inspiration.
Taking inspiration from the unique attributes of the Arabic culture, as well as the location at The Palm, and melded them into a W experience. The exciting challenge and opportunity with this project was to create that quintessential W hotel feeling of rebellious, distinctive luxury; while drawing from Middle Eastern culture. Offering unique sensual experiences of the location while maintaining that special sense of ‘W’.
W Hotels are "labs of creation" and the design is all about taking risks and breaking boundaries. W is fun. Wherever you are in the hotel, it should be "wow" Young, friendly, dynamic, 24 hours, unlike a normal hotel. The interaction is different. The whole experience of being in a W should be enjoyable. Everywhere is a selfie-spot. Everywhere is sprinkled with stardust.
