Project Overview

A full-service guest experience within an efficient hotel footprint.

The Dallas Atwell Suites concept brings together guest rooms, meeting functions, fitness, food and beverage, laundry, and outdoor amenities within a compact five-story hotel plan.

The ground floor is conceived as the social heart of the project, combining reception, lobby lounge, dining, bar, fitness, meeting space, and back-of-house functions around a clear circulation system. Upper floors transition into an efficient guest-room layout organized around a central corridor and vertical circulation core.

Hotel Program

Designed around how guests actually use the hotel.

Guest amenities extend beyond the room itself. The planning incorporates a fitness center, outdoor pool, guest laundry, meeting rooms, and outdoor seating, while separating staff and operational functions from primary guest circulation.

Planning Strategy

Public activity below. Efficient repetition above.

The first floor combines a larger mix of guest-facing and operational spaces, while the typical upper floor relies on repeatable room modules and a straightforward central corridor. This clear separation allows the project to support both hospitality experience and day-to-day hotel operations.

Site + Arrival

A hotel organized around arrival, parking, and an internal amenity court.

The site plan creates distinct arrival zones for the main lobby and meeting functions, wraps parking around the building, and uses the hotel mass to frame a protected outdoor pool and seating area. Landscape buffers and pedestrian paths reinforce the guest approach from parking to entry.

Design Intent
Brand standards translated into a site-specific hospitality experience.

The architecture uses a restrained palette of warm ochre, light neutral panels, and charcoal gray to break down the scale of the five-story building and create a recognizable identity from multiple approaches. Vertical window groupings and integrated exterior lighting reinforce the facade rhythm while distinguishing the primary hotel entry.
