Marriott Residence Inn and AC Hotel

In mid 2014 Magley Design was commissioned by Alena and Suri I-Drive Investments to provide conceptual and graphic design services for a hotel complex along International Drive in Orlando, FL, including the new construction of a combined Marriott Residence Inn and Marriott AC Hotel. The pool amenity area shared by the hotels is an interior space encircled by building, and was designed to include multiple areas for outdoor dining, passive relaxation, and interactive recreation. The pool design includes a waterfall curtain feature, imbuing the space with not only a visual spectacle, but ambient white noise to aid in relaxation. An interactive water splash pad was designed to provide an alternative water-based activity area for guests, while also increasing the pleasant white noise of the amenity area.
