The renovation within Traders Hotel was designed to attract a changing demographic of travellers, including younger business travellers, Asian tourists, women and retired Europeans. A strategic design approach aiming to achieve radical resource productivity, waste reduction and cost effective replacement was integrated with a palette of contemporary high quality materials inspired by the tradition of trade and travel.
Custom-designed furniture minimises impact on limited floor space through adaptations of point loading and cantilevered millwork. Warm materials such as walnut, ebony, onyx and chenille offer visual suggestions of the tactile experience they offer. Paintings and sculptures are focal points for lighting to radiate colour and form.
