Hotel Peter and Paul
Hotel Peter and Paul in New Orleans illustrates how tile can define the character of a commercial space. The hotel's design weaves together historic architecture and carefully selected materials, with tile playing a prominent role in creating its distinctive look, especially in the bathrooms and common areas.
The bathrooms feature a thoughtful combination of classic subway tiles and hexagonal floor tiles, with soft muted colors like ivories and pale greens forming the foundation. What makes these spaces stand out are the splashes of cooler reds and deep blues that are artfully intertwined, adding contrast and dimension to the serene palette. These touches of color strike a balance between vintage charm and modern sensibility, enhancing the warmth of the spaces while maintaining a functional design.
The hotel’s common areas are graced with Helio Mechanical Terracotta tiles, a bold design element that complements the rich yellow walls, creating a striking yet harmonious contrast. This pairing not only speaks to the durability required for commercial settings but also brings an earthy, welcoming feel to high-traffic spaces.
