ULTRA LUXURY HOTELS

Bridging Expertise Gaps in Luxury Adaptive Reuse

We helped experienced developers and luxury brands navigate the complex process of converting a historic office building into a mixed-use destination. Our technical services ensured seamless coordination among specialized teams.

Our Client

We partnered with sophisticated investors and their development teams working with ultra-luxury hotel brands including Aman, Auberge Resorts, Baccarat, and 1 Hotels. 

Despite their considerable experience, they faced challenges coordinating the many moving parts of this complex historical conversion project.

The Challenge

Even with experienced teams, this complex project faced coordination hurdles:

  • Siloed expertise across different organizations
  • Competing priorities between brand standards and practical operations
  • Regulatory complexities in historical building conversion

Despite having top-tier talent in every area, the project needed an independent advisor to bridge communication gaps and find integrative solutions.

Our Approach

We served as unbiased technical advisors who could work across organizational boundaries. Our contribution focused on three critical capabilities:

  • Breaking through decision bottlenecks
  • Balancing luxury standards with practicality
  • Ensuring regulatory compliance without delays

This cross-functional approach eliminated costly delays and design compromises that allowed these landmark historical conversion projects to maintain their architectural integrity while achieving operational excellence and luxury standards.
