The hospitality identity paradox
Hotel groups face a paradox : guests want a brand they recognize, but they also want each property to feel local and distinctive. Solve it wrong and you get either a generic chain or 14 disconnected hotels. Solve it right and you get Aman, Six Senses, or in the hospitality challenger space, Atlas. Our work was to give the group a flexible identity system that holds the soul of each property without diluting the parent brand.
