City hotel
A city-hotel fit-out for 120 keys inside an old brick trading house, with a bar for the neighbourhood.
A capability showcase: what we can deliver for a hotel like this. It is not a completed project, and the figures are design targets, not results.
Typical brief
Turn the upper floors of a trading house into a city hotel with a bar that locals use.
Building and local style
Early 20th-century Kontorhaus with a dark clinker brick front, tall windows and heavy concrete floors.
Typical plot and building constraints
A listed facade, deep floor plates and a tight courtyard as the only delivery access.

Suggested working model
Your plan, our design and supply
Planned timeline by phase
Planned weeks per phase. Phases overlap in practice; we set the real plan per project.
Planned split across our own factories
- Kayseri Casegoods and fixed joinery
- İzmir Upholstery frames and loose seating
- Kocaeli Metal works and frames
- Sakarya Veneer, doors and wall panelling
Share of the factory-made scope by site. The rest comes through Turkish suppliers we know well: fabrics, stone and solid-surface tops, glass and mirrors, and lighting.
Typical challenges and our answers
Challenge
A deep plan leaves dark inner zones.
Our answer
Bathrooms and wardrobes go in the inner zone; the window side is kept for sleeping and sitting.
Challenge
Corner rooms are larger and oddly shaped.
Our answer
We plan them as their own category, with a reading corner and a second window seat.
Design targets
| Metric | Target range |
|---|---|
| Average daily rate (ADR) | +12% – +20% |
| Occupancy | +4 – +7 points |
| Revenue per available room (RevPAR) | +18% – +28% |
vs. today or the local market
Target ranges we design towards, for planning only. They are not results and not promises; your revenue team sets the real numbers.
Expected effect
A bar that locals choose earns on quiet nights and makes the hotel feel alive.
Design principles
- Let the window grid set the room width.
- Use the deep inner zone for storage and baths, never for beds.

Four expert views on the concept
Each note is written from the point of view of someone with thirty years in that role.
Corner rooms in an old building deserve their own price.
The bar must work for hotel guests at breakfast and for the street at night.
One courtyard for deliveries and waste. Plan the service route before the bar.
A dark brick building needs warm light inside, not more colour.
