HOTELS Magazine features Nora Hotel, an upscale 201-room hotel and the first vertical development in West Palm Beach¡¯s Nora District
New York-based Gachot Studios, led by principal Christine Gachot, is curating the hotel¡¯s interiors while sustainable design and engineering firm Stantec is serving as design architect and architect of record. In describing the interior design and its hoped-for impact on guests, Born characterized it as serene and residential. ¡°When you¡¯re in the hotel rooms, you will feel like you¡¯re in your own bedroom rather than in a cookie-cutter branded hotel. It¡¯s really geared toward comfort and relaxation,¡± he said. BD¡¯s long-time project partner, Sean MacPherson, is also fully involved in the design process.?
An outpost of famed New York food haunt Pastis will be on the hotel¡¯s ground floor. STARR Restaurants will provide in-room dining services and collaborate on the hotel¡¯s rooftop restaurant and lounge, where there will be access to a garden dining area, two bars, a pool and?private cabanas.??
