When it comes to designing a hotel interior, there are different directions you can take to achieve its ideal style and sense of atmosphere. While some opt for a simple, cozy vibe, others prefer a more refined, contemporary ambience. From flooring and wall colors to the décor and furniture, there are countless aspects of the space to consider.
Going green isn’t just a trend—it’s a lifestyle. Not only do many people believe individuals should be making environmentally conscious decisions, they also think more businesses should be doing the same.
Working with reliable partners and vendors who share your company’s values is a big plus for any business. You should be able to count on them, especially when faced with unforeseen obstacles, and they should offer quality products, services and customer service.
Denver, Colo.-based interior contractor and DIRTT distribution partner ELEMENTS knows this firsthand.
A vitrine is a glass display case utilized to showcase valuable items, whether in a jewelry store, retail store, or museum.
Retail stores and corporate offices aren’t the only commercial spaces incorporating glass into their interior designs. Hotels also utilize this durable, unique material in various ways, from the lobby to the bathrooms to the individual guest rooms.
Next time you stay at a hotel, take notice of your surroundings and see if you can spot the many glass features integrated within its overall design.
Customer service is a key component of Corporate Concepts' business model. The furniture and manufactured construction distribution company, which also happens to be the 14th largest women-owned business in Chicago, was first established in 1983. Throughout the past 30-plus years, it has grown tremendously, now running two offices in Illinois—one in Chicago and the other in Lombard—while transforming commercial interior spaces into high-productivity environments for its clients, one project at a time.
Open-style office environments have been on a steady rise throughout the past decade. Rather than being stuck in a cubicle like Peter Gibbons from Office Space—that is, until he knocks it down—employees of both small and large businesses now work in one common area, without separation. Oftentimes, glass office walls or glass partitons keep the space open, while also alleviating concerns about noise, distractions, and a lack of privacy.
Most people don’t give glass enough credit. Stop to think about it, however, and it becomes crystal clear: Glass can be found pretty much anywhere—in residential homes, commercial offices, restaurants, universities, and sports arenas, among many other venues. Plus, this incredibly versatile and useful material is not solely a human creation. But we’ll get into that in a minute!
When it comes to commercial interiors, Agile Interiors has made an impressive name for itself. The Houston-based architectural construction and design company found its niche more than a decade ago, becoming a DIRTT Environmental Solutions distribution partner. DIRTT, short for “Doing It Right This Time,” is a customized interior manufacturer that aims to “build better” with more efficient design, manufacturing, shipping and installation processes.
People spend most of their time at work, which means that for many the office is their second home. But it certainly doesn't feel like home, does it?
