Best of Hotels, Hospitality & Wellness Interiors.   2023 Archive Edition

As we take some time on our annual break and plan for the upcoming year, here’s a selection of our top articles from 2023. Today, we have a favourite in the Yellowtrace office and maybe the sexiest of all the categories—Welcome to all things Hotels & Hospitality.

This section has no rules, and that’s how we like it. From the moody and masculine, raw and industrial, soft and feminine—to the all-together loco, these spaces transport us to another place and let us forget our troubles, if only for a little while.

Here is where well-crafted interior branding really shines. From perfectly pitched moods to carefully planned spaces that meet the demands of both the staff and the patrons, hospitality interiors work hard and play hard. Find bars and restaurants, brand-new lavish hotels and low-key guest houses. Don’t say we didn’t warn you—this category is hot, hot, hot. Enjoy!
