We are experienced architects partnering with hospitality industry disruptors

Polysmiths is an award-winning architecture and interior design practice based in Camden, London. Our projects include boutique hotel interiors, as well as houses, home extension, renovation and refurbishment, art gallery and restaurants. Most of our clients and projects are located in London, but we are also currently working in Berlin, Sydney, and Hong Kong.

We have experience working with small independent hotel brands and hospitality industry disruptors on new boutique hotel concepts, interior designs, as well as spaces that support a high quality guest experience, including communal kitchen, lobby, cafe, bar, and co-working spaces.

Case study: A sustainable boutique hotel in Bloomsbury

We recently completed a feasibility study and planning application on renovation and refurbishment of a Georgian terrace into a 12-key boutique hotel. The boutique hotel will replace a tired B&B in Bloomsbury, Camden, Central London.

The boutique hotel will be used for leisure and business guests who want a high quality design, and sustainable hotel, in central London, for short to mid-term stay.


Sustainability in traveling and in hotel operations

Our Client understands that traveling for leisure or work is inherently not sustainable to the environment. Therefore, as part of the interior design, we have included a small kitchen unit in every room, and encouraging the option for guests to stay for more than 10 days.

The hotel rooms, respecting the heritage quality of the George terraced-house, includes internal glazing screens for the different areas of the suites (kitchen, bathroom, and bed) where consistent heating is required. This reduces the overall energy consumption of the building, and avoided the need to have insulations on the interior of the architecture.

Tactile spaces that is calm, and a garden cafe

The project focuses on using natural materials that are robust and sustainable, while reducing demolition of the existing building fabric, and upgrading its energy efficiency and lowering the hotel operational cost.

The project also introduces a garden extension to the rear for the hotel guests, and a new cafe on the ground level.

The scope of the project includes renovation of all 3 gallery rooms, enhancing the existing Listed Building fabric, as well as renovation of a new office and meeting room for the gallery.
