Copper Vine Inn
The companion to the Copper Vine restaurant and bar, this new boutique hotel is comprised of 11 guest rooms, including a suite tucked into the attic of the historic restaurant building. Studio West was the architect and interior designer for the new construction hotel, which is located behind the existing Copper Vine restaurant. Envisioned as a handful of curated hotel rooms with New Orleans charm and hospitality, Studio West approached the interior design of the project as a collection of unique guest rooms, each with their own character and local artwork. Inspired by the materials and textures from the existing restaurant, Studio West selected local artwork, and custom-designed fabrics and rugs. Color palates consisted of three themed room concepts incorporating hues of terracotta, sage, and warm blue. Studio West custom designed cherry wood closets, mini-bars, and headboards for the guest rooms. Shared amenities include water and coffee station at each floor to provide a public-house feel to the inn.
Art-forward New Orleans Boutique Inn
Converting the underutilized third floor attic space of the historic building into a terrace hotel suite, creates an unexpected and luxurious hotel room that can double as an apartment. The design included reconstructing a previously modified historic dormer and connecting it to the new terrace, as well as adding a new matching dormer as a dedicated shower and bathing room. The large new terrace located over the new private dining room at Copper View overlooks the Copper Vine courtyard allows for a commanding view of the Poydras Street corridor. To maximize the space, Studio West custom designed millwork in the dormers and sloped ceilings which includes a daybed, closets, kitchen, bar, and vanities.
Spacious Terrace Suite with a View
The chorography of how guests check in, get a glass of wine, and relax was integral to the interior design. Studio West’s design integrates the historic floor levels with the new, resulting in tall ceilings throughout the new hotel. Precise connection points between the historic structure and new were carefully documented and coordinated in construction to integrate the hotel and restaurant into a unified design aesthetic. Studio West provided Architectural Design, Interior Design, Art Selection, Furnishing Selection and Procurement for the project.
