Containing over 300 full-color photographs, Hotel Design features the work of 36 of the top hotel designers identified by Interior Design and Hospitality Design magazines. This international portfolio of the finest contemporary designs beautifully illustrates the talent and creativity of today's designers in providing a high level of comfort for tourists and business travelers alike. Many of the projects shown here also attest to the imaginative use of local artifacts, crafts and indigenous styles. As Justin Henderson notes in his introduction, "Linking old and new, local village with global village, region with region and nation with nation, are the new hotels of the world...Our featured properties from Korea to Bophuthatswana, from Everett, Washington to West Palm Beach, Florida, demonstrate that designers around the world have responded to the demands of short-term vacationers, heavily-traveled businessmen, meeting planners, and conventioneers with hotel designs that manage to play to every segment of an increasingly diverse and sophisticated market.
