With the help of the creative design team at Anagrama agency, who give great attention to details and execution, the hotel’s personality shows real improvement. Following an authentic and modernist design approach, the proposal of mansion’s logo and emblem design embraces a more refined note, and improves on the original attributes of the hotel.

The Rhode Island-based hotel’s image inspiringly combines the typical profile of historical mansions, roaring waves that burst into the steep coasts and abruptly fall into the sea, along the rocky shorelines. Such power can be seen in the organic pattern system, which applies gold tones to simulate the ocean water movement.

To express the true principles that guide the local brand, the technique of the Mexico City-based design studio was inspired by the features of the old property. To recall the Victorian era, the artists gave the hotel a distinct note, preparing an organic pattern with smooth colors, garnishing the hotel’s sophisticated identity.

Earthy and muted colors, like blue and lavender, were given a vivid voice once a small dose of golden lines were added, mirroring not only the power of the ocean, but also the real value of the grandiose property that provides luxury services.
