design hotels™ will present its fourth annual architecture and design symposium. Take part in this journey into the next decade of hospitality, together with trend analysts from the London-based FUTURE LABORATORY and a team of some of the world’s most innovative designers, creatives, architects and progressive thinkers.
Experience new hospitality concepts: consistent design is only a minimum requirement for success, and the Forum will look beyond this at holistic concepts that marry the right design, the right art and the right cuisine in a sustainable environment….these are what will captivate the consumers and fulfill or even exceed their expectations.
