frequently asked questions
When doing a hotel interior design in a heritage building, the main considerations include:
Heritage Regulations: It’s important to understand the local regulations and restrictions surrounding heritage buildings and ensure that any changes made to the space comply with these regulations.
Building Structure: Listed buildings often have unique and challenging building structures, which must be taken into account during the design and fit-out process.
Building Materials: Heritage buildings often have original features and materials that must be preserved and protected during the fit-out process.
Access and Logistics: Heritage buildings may have limited access and logistics, which can impact the design and construction process.
Energy Efficiency: Heritage buildings may have limited energy efficiency, so it may be necessary to consider upgrading or installing new systems to improve efficiency.
Accessibility: It may be necessary to make changes to the building to improve accessibility for people with disabilities, while still preserving its heritage character.
Cost: Fitting out a Listed building can be more expensive than fitting out a modern building due to the need to preserve original features and comply with heritage regulations.
It’s important to work with a team of professionals with experience in heritage building fit-outs as well as hotel interior design to ensure the project is completed successfully, while preserving the building’s heritage values.
Designing for heritage spaces, particularly for hotel interior design, requires a sensitive approach that considers the cultural, historical, and architectural significance of the site. The design should be in harmony with the existing features and should preserve the integrity of the heritage space while also making it functional and accessible to modern audiences. This often involves incorporating contemporary design elements in a subtle manner, avoiding alterations to the original fabric of the building, and using materials that are in keeping with the historic style. Designers may also have to consider specific regulations and guidelines for heritage sites.
