Hospitality by Design: Materials, Trends and Innovation
Explore how material choices shape the experience, aesthetics, and performance of hospitality spaces. Led by Alys Bryan from Design Insider, this session covers innovative surface design, balancing natural character with durability, safety, and long-term performance, and communicating effectively with suppliers.
Hear from designers working on QSR projects, Paris workplaces inspired by hospitality, and international guest rooms, where local materials, tactility, and lighting create connection, reinforce local character, and inspire creativity. Sustainability, reuse, and designing for spaces that age gracefully are also central themes, offering architects and interior designers practical and inspirational insights for memorable environments.
