In a hospitality environment, flooring can be one of those design elements that can bring quality and a touch of style and elan to the hotel environment. Opting for flooring which offers design flexibility can make it easier for a designer to seek more possibilities. However, the reflection of a hospitality brand through its aesthetics can be challenging. Hence it is important to get this aspect of an interior environment of a hotel just as right.
Choice of flooring is directly equivalent to the needs and requirements of a hotel and its amenities. The chosen flooring's color, style, and pattern must reflect the atmosphere of a hotel. The room size and flooring size should be proportional to maintain balance.
The selected flooring material also needs to support the high traffic of guests of a hotel who are always on the go. Budget, cost-effectiveness, and maintainability are the other key points to keep in mind while designing flooring.
A DESIGNER'S PERSPECTIVE
Competition in the hospitality industry is quite challenging and hotels with lackluster elements usually struggle to connect with the guests and their visual requirements. Usually, guests choose hotels which match their sense of aesthetics and style.
Designers lay out the flooring patterns and designs in a manner that targets the profile of hotel guests. The flooring pattern should highlight the amenities of a hotel and should stand out from the competition. The space should inspire visitors to book their property and should be well recognised to lure them back. It should also convey how strong the brand is. Hotel guests, whether they are staying for leisure or business, want to feel comfortable and invited.
