for high-wear locations.
Increasingly, luxury hotels go well beyond the
sumptuous and best-of-everything to include a
more personal experience for guests. The Sudima
Christchurch City is a leading case in point.
The new hotel seeks a more boutique experience
for business travellers and tourists alike with an
interior that connects to the wider Canterbury area
in an authentic way.
This is achieved through the inclusion of New
Zealand artworks on bedheads, textural elements in
New Zealand materials, such as wool carpets and
throws, and also through the tones of the fit-out.
The bedrooms feature Resene Thorndon Cream
as a slightly moody neutral, while Resene Napa, a
smoky grey beige neutral, provides subtle contrast.
The natural tones are in keeping with the wider
decor and provide an ideal backdrop to the Aroha
Gossage paintings/prints on the bedheads.
