Fairmont Chicago, Millenium Park, is unveiling a refreshed, reimagined interior design led by KTGY, a Great Places to Work certified design firm focused on architecture, branding, interiors and planning. KTGY’s interiors studio, responsible for over a dozen unique designs for hotel clients in the Chicago area, put their storytelling rooted design approach to designing a bold new look and feel for the hotel.
Reimagining the eighty-three Fairmont Gold guestrooms, suites, Fairmont Gold Lounge, Rouge meeting room and 2nd floor open air “Terrace” this new design direction focuses on delivering a premium visitor experience. To embody the spirit of luxury, KTGY’s designers envisioned a sense of grand arrival for this storied brand. KTGY’s interiors team reflected the building’s postmodern architectural style by bringing that prominence down to a human scale. Inviting colors and understated refinement make elegant spaces personal for Fairmont’s guests.
The historic Rouge meeting room, once a supper club has been reimagined as a bright and airy space, now rebranded as the Millennium Room. New interior architecture included uncovering previously covered windows and raising the sunken floor to open the space and increase natural light. A refined visual palette allows guests to relax and focus their attention. The floor plan is more functional and flexible, making the best use of the space.
KTGY’s interior designers paid special attention to the experience of Fairmont Gold-level customers. On the 15th floor, guests enter the exclusive Fairmont Gold Lounge. The revamped space has a more inviting and intimate feel with a new seating plan, finish and flooring. Newly dedicated spaces like the flex gathering space, library and lounge invite visitors to make themselves at home in elegant surroundings.
In keeping with the premium guest experience, the Fairmont Gold-level guestrooms and suites have been revitalized with new finish and furnishings, carpet and a redesigned bathroom that all represent the golden treatment. These luxury guestrooms and suites have been refreshed with new color palettes and finishes, including a walk in shower and dual vanity, inspired by the nearby park and surrounding context of historic architecture.
KTGY’s design philosophy is rooted in our research and storytelling process. Every space from the meeting rooms to the exclusive Fairmont Gold lounge, to the suites tells its own story and carries the luxurious attitude of our famous muse.
