Grand Hotel. Redesigning Modern Life

Luxusherberge und »Kulturkanal« Geschichte, Design und Architektur eines sozialen und kulturellen Phänomens Das Grand Hotel. Wer hier logiert, erwartet Glanz und Luxus. Die prachtvollen Paläste der Belle Époque und die eleganten Bauten des Art déco setzten Maßstäbe. Bis heute sind Architektur und Inneneinrichtung eines Hotelprojekts von entscheidender Bedeutung. Der Bautypus hat sich zu einem einzigartigen Medium für integriertes Design entwickelt und das weltweit: Ketten wie Hyatt und Hilton waren Auslöser dieses Kulturphänomens. Begriffe wie »Boutique Hotel« oder »Lifestyle Hotel« stehen für einen jüngeren Gestaltungstrend, der den Gast vor allem gefühlsmäßig ansprechen will. Die üppig bebilderte Publikation betrachtet Grand Hotels als ein kommerzielles, weltumspannendes Netzwerk, das sich durch die Architektur definiert und auf sozialen Schranken beruht. Anhand einer Vielzahl unterschiedlichster Beiträge wird beleuchtet, worin das besondere Faszinosum des Grand Hotels für uns alle besteht.
From the hotel’s origin in humble inns dotted along ancient trade routes, to today’s worldwide Hilton and Hyatt networks, the concept of the hotel has come a very long way indeed. We now talk about boutique hotels and resort hotels, places that connote a relatively new lifestyle of perpetual leisure and transience, and as the role of the hotel has expanded, so too have architects and interior designers risen to the challenge, producing ever more spectacular structures. Today, the largest hotel in the world--the First World Hotel in Malaysia--boasts 6,118 rooms, and the tallest hotel--the Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong--sits at the top of the 1,600-foot-high International Commerce Center. Grand Hotel is the most ambitious book on the subject yet published. Its scope is global and trans-historical: a tiny sampling of hotels featured includes the Dolder Grand Hotel and Curhaus in Zurich; SLS Bazaar in Beverly Hills; the Ace Hotel in New York; Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami Beach; and the Lloyd Hotel and Cultural Embassy in Amsterdam. With 350 color illustrations, it includes extended blog entries, newly commissioned essays and interviews, plus reprints and excerpts from classic texts on the topic.
