Hotel Puerta América

Bespoke Stevensons-Stone® Design

Involving nearly 20 architects, the Hotel Puerta América in Madrid is a unique project, with each of the eight floors presented in radically different styles. Stevensons were involved in more than one area across the hotel, and worked extensively on the lobby on the eighth floor.

The designers vision of the lobby involved radial walls emanating from the lifts, within which are placed hundreds of individual fibre optic lights - the lighting reacts to the colour of the clothing worn by the guest leaving the lift into the lobby. Stevensons-Stone® was chosen as the best material to manufacture the walls from, with its moulding precision allowing for the hundreds of pre-formed holes for the lighting to be placed accurately.
