Ippolito Fleitz Group has developed the new design of hotel chainMotel One‘s headquarters in Munich, Germany.
For the Munich headquarters of hotel chain Motel One, we designed a conference and training centre, multiple office floors, a central lobby and a restaurant that is also open to the public. The aim was to identify a single design idiom to be used across all areas, which meshes with the Corporate Identity of Motel One while still possessing an autonomous identity.
Lobby
The Munich headquarters bring together the company’s head office and a regular hotel under one roof. The office space is complemented by a conference and staff training centre, as well as a public restaurant. All areas are accessed from a shared lobby. This high, two-storey space extends right through the building. Its entrances are located at opposite ends and the imposing space between is spanned by a turquoise runner on the floor and black-painted, metal lamellae on the ceiling. The reception stands at the centre of this elongated space, backed by an 8-metre-high, wooden relief wall. Opposite the reception is a brand wall and a soft seating landscape of leather cubes, providing a softer counterpart to the rectangular reception counter.
