Details

Making conscious travel a force for good, this brand’s BREEAM & Green Key debut makes ESG & UN Sustainable Development Goals the key basis of interior design decisions. Vast FF&E research for the listed, 207-key hotel, long-stay & creative ‘maker’ hub enabled sustainable & circular products, even upcycled flea market-finds, plus emphasised water conservation & biophilia. Interior designs & layouts strengthen the sense of community & encourage knowledge-sharing amongst guests & local experts.

The Jury‘s Statement

The redesign of a listed hotel in Rotterdam shows how future-oriented interior design can promote sustainable travel and community exchange. “The Usual Rotterdam” combines circular and sustainable products with contemporary comfort and the demands of modern travelers. Attractive communal areas encourage communication.
