EVENTI - Concept

One of New York's most vibrant and diverse areas, Chelsea hums with activity from its galleries and shopping destinations, then takes a break at the High Line elevated park. Right in the middle of it all, 2 blocks from Penn Station, is Eventi, a four-star boutique hotel where killer views come standard. Eventi also features indoor/outdoor event spaces, farm-to-table dining, and a level of service that rises to the occasion.

Made for Mobile

Building a Brand

The challenge with Kimpton's collection of hotels was to create a common set of branding elements, a "shell" to let guests know they're on a Kimpton site, while allowing the hotel's personality to shine through.

Mobile Booking

Another challenge for the phone was to design a clean, simple booking path with limited taps. I worked within the constraints of Sabre Hospitality's booking engine and also designed integrated promotions into a home page slider.

Also Designed for Blackberry

I also designed a stripped-down version for the Balckberry phone. The same design principals apply - keep menus short, make it easy to get Home, and guide users to easy bookings.

Tablet Too

iPads

The EPIC site looks and works great on a tablet. The large images really pop. Navigation is a breeze with large primary action buttons and clear labeling.

Social Media

Social Media is employed for news and events, promotions, and for guests to share photos and stories - especially weddings.
