The Luggage Room at the Marriott Hotel, Grosvenor Square, London, UK
The Luggage Room at the Marriott Grosvenor Square draws on the vernacular and ambience of the 20’s intimate cocktail bar with sumptuous luxury in every detail of the interior and furniture design.
Working closely with interior designers Fabled Studio, dpa’s design challenge was to integrate and complement the elegant interior spaces and enhance the rich materials with a mixture of subtle brushes of light coupled with more dramatic accents to further enhance points of interest.
Key elements include displays that sparkle with depth, quality, contrast and elegance, uplighting to feature window screens, and accent to artwork and curiosities of a bygone era. Concealed lighting to the bar exposes delicate yet robust detailing echoing traditional steam age luggage and fine liquors and wines glow with concealed lighting in the bar, liquor cabinets and wine displays which all add to the overall character of the space.
Bespoke decorative lighting designed by Fabled Studio provide a signature to the lighting ambience while dark reflective surfaces catch glimmers of light.
An architectural lighting control system provides the necessary variable lighting scenes to provide appropriate day and intimate and moody night scenes for the late night in-crowd.
