Tucked away in the heart of Singapore’s little India, the Wanderlust Hotel takes a fun and quirky approach on hotel room design. Instead of having one single room theme or design for the whole hotel, the Wanderlust hired 4 different agencies to design each of the 4 floors of the hotel. The end result was that the hotel guests are able to choose from 4 different stories, each one designed as separate worlds. The first floor contains small rooms that are coordinated by one single color and the theme of each room is artists and song titles, simply placed on the wall by neon signs. Contrastingly, the second floor has a black and white theme. The third floor houses origami and pop up style rooms. The origami room mostly made up of many corners that give the impression that its “folded” or creased. The most interesting part of this floor are the pop up rooms, stark white room with “furniture” popping up from the walls and ceilings, an effect made stronger by being lit up with a yellow glow from behind. Lastly, the top floor has loft style rooms with its theme “creature comforts”, designed as if it came straight out of a child’s imagination.
It’s not advertised as the biggest, most upscale, and classy hotel, but it gives travelers and tourists and fresh change from lavish hotels that they can check into at any time. The hotel’s appeal is directed to those who would like to try something new and out of the ordinary. Designed to give its patrons a varied selection of rooms, the hotel wisely uses the designs of these 4 agencies to hook patrons into trying out their brand, even if it is slightly unconventional.
