Filling your hotel with artwork is one of the easiest ways to create a sense of ambiance and class that aligns with your mission statement. The designs and objects you choose to display will often make a big impression on your guests as they enter the lobby. The pieces and themes you select should remain consistent through the hallways, inside the rooms, and in any other visible areas to your guests. Here are some ideas of what to consider when choosing artwork for your hotel.
What Story Are You Trying To Tell
Are you trying to complement the designs of a historic hotel that already has a place in people's minds? Are you trying to figure out the best way to fill a brand-new location in the heart of downtown? Location, audience, color scheme, and existing compositions will dictate a vast swath of the options available for you to use.
How Will You Embrace Your Pieces
Once you've figured out the direction you want to go in, you can set about choosing exactly what you want to incorporate different pieces into the hotel's composition. If your hotel is trying to appeal to young people looking for a fun time, you might consider bold, luminescent colors and vibrant nightlife décor. If you want to cater to a more professional clientele, you might find a handful of pieces tastefully laid out in the lobby as an exclamation mark on the motif.
An Outside Perspective
You know you want to transform your hotels' visuals, but your vision for doing so is a bit grainy, or you have little to no experience buying art. It could be incredibly beneficial to your hotel to hire an art advisor or consultant. These are experts in the field who can work with you to choose artwork and designs that will best engage your guests and keep in lockstep with your hotel's mission statement.
Keep It Practical
No matter what pieces you decide on, you should keep in mind the upkeep needed for them. If you add a glittering, enormous chandelier as the centerpiece to your lobby, you will want to make sure you have the right staff to keep it presentable. If you can, focus on materials that are easier to care for and clean.
