New Perspectives - The Design Hotels Book 2020

For a quarter century, Design Hotels has been at the forefront of a movement in the travel industry, curating a global collection of independent, design-driven hotels that function as social hubs and platforms for extraordinary experiences.

In celebration of their 25th anniversary, they were proud to release this special edition of our popular annual book, presenting an in-depth, individualized look at 25 newly opened hotels around the world that represent the core values of Design Hotels, spanning a diverse range of cultures and embodying original concepts, trailblazing design and extraordinary engagement with their communities. We sent some of the best editorial and lifestyle photographers to emerge in recent years around the world to conjure the unique personality and character of these hotels at the vanguard of our collection that are upending the way we think about hospitality.

Each of these properties tells a story, rich with emotion and deeply connected to its unique destination. NEW PERSPECTIVES: THE DESIGN HOTELS BOOK brings these stories to life through 432 pages of evocatie photo essays and reportage. More than a mere coffee-table book, we hope this special edition will serve as an almanac of best practices, a springboard for dreams and a distillation of a quarter century of pioneering design and original experiences.
