Interpreting an international hospitality brand to create a unique spatial experience, Aloft stands for all that is fresh and spirited – a sleek, uncluttered take on work, play and travel. On the other end of the courtyard is Nook, an all-day dining area. A brightly lit, expansive zone, Nook creates a communal, home-like experience for the hotel’s patrons. Subtle pops of colour and vibrant artworks populate the monochromatic shell; strategically placed stone counters break the expanse of the space into smaller pockets. Seating clusters in various configurations – loosely grouped lounge chairs, timber benches in the deli, Refuel, and ergonomic furniture at the workstations – offer a variety of experiences for the visitor.
