Q&A
How does the design of your space (or an element of the design) impact the experiences people have there?
"I truly believe ARRIVE Austin is unlike anything else in the city. It celebrates its place, emphasizing the community by putting the retail and restaurant outlets first and foremost. There is no lobby, and instead there are interesting, uniquely branded and operated restaurants, a coffee bar, and retail. The building itself is much more than simply a place to rest your head, the architecture is meant to be art. Even if you don't happen to ever stay in our hotel we wanted to create something that visually was additive to the community. I believe it’s a real piece of art, unexpected, unique, and playful. Utilitarian sculpture." ARRIVE Hotels & Restaurants Co-Founder & Chief Development Officer, Chris Pardo"
