Hotel Linger
With Linger, my hotel design, I aim to evoke the feeling of a slow Sunday morning and extend the “New York minute” through novel sensory experiences.
Inspired by the 5-4–3–2–1 grounding technique designed to reduce anxiety, the space is a series of curving hallways winding through zones designed to raise or lower heartrates by stimulating the senses. The experience creates for guests a feeling of expanded time.
