The Society Hotel
Megan Blossom and Reiko Igarashi completed the modern interior decor and styling, finding inspiration from the building's rich history. The designers retained much of the original character: the carved wooden handrail remains on the stair, wood trim and wainscot accent the walls, and original doors are re-purposed as custom millwork.
Window graphics provide unobtrusive and elegant signage on the exterior glazing of the historic facade.
The lobby of the hotel contains a cafe and lounge space complete with a fireplace.
A node to the past, original doors have been re-purposed and now provide decorative paneling behind the reception desk.
A hostel like bunk rooms occupies the lower level of the Hotel. Guests are provided with personal lockers and have access to a shared kitchen.
The wood framed bunk beds come complete with a reading light and a privacy curtain.
A variety of guest bedrooms fill the top three floors, in a configuration that closely matches the original plan of the hotel.
The orginal dark wood window frames and exterior brick walls remain in tact. Simple, modern additions provide amenities in the guest rooms.
The rooftop terrace provides panoramic views to the surrounding neighborhood and city beyond.
