Tello Interiors
mcminnville, oregon tell us about how you approach hospitality design. I find a lot of inspiration from local stories. My clients on the Atticus were a wealth of information about their local community. Inspiration is all around us all the time. Boutique hospitality projects are about pushing further than most people would go in the design of their homes but still connecting to the intimacy of a home. how did you select the tile combinations for this project? The Ann Sacks tile used throughout was a perfect fit for a project about local love and style. The black penny rounds on the shower floor were selected as a modern spin on the classic mosaic. The Savoy backsplash at the sinks were also a spin off the classic hex into something that reflected that unique Oregon spirit. We also used the Savoy herringbone for the backsplash at the penthouse sinks because it pairs so well with the Ann Sacks Paccha by Popham encaustic tile on the floor. how was showcasing local brands important? Showcasing local design brands in Oregon was very important. This project was inspired by the owners wanting to bring a luxury hotel to their hometown. Making sure the experience was one that expressed Oregon was at the heart of the mission. The term I use to describe the style of this project is "Oregon Romanticism". That could not have been achieved without also celebrating all the local design brands and talent we have in our region.
