Rosemont | Illinois
In 1969 the Hyatt Regency O’Hare, the second of the dramatic Hyatt atrium hotels to be built, opened for business. Over the ensuing years the hotel was expanded, spaces were repurposed and the nature of the hotel’s business had changed. TVS worked with Hyatt Hotels to look at the property holistically and see how to bring new life and better functionality to this asset.
This building was previously brutal and uninviting, and our team was brought in to rethink its lobby and arrival spaces for a more comforting and inspiring experience. While we ultimately went on to redesign guestrooms and most other areas of this hotel, the reconfiguration and upgrade of the lobby was the first step in making this property successful again. Reception, restaurants, arrival and other functions were replanned around a lobby that was relocated to a more dramatic second floor that had been previously underused. Circulation patterns and discovery moments were entirely rethought, forming the basis for an all-new guest experience.

Atlanta | Georgia
The Hotel Indigo Atlanta Downtown is at the heart of the sprawling mixed-use complex of Peachtree Center which was developed by legendary local architect John Portman. Mr. Portman himself led the adaptive reuse project in the early 2010’s sculpting the bottom floors of one of his original office towers into a boutique hotel that features his signature neo-futuristic style and several personal large scale artworks. TVS is currently working to refresh the public areas and guestrooms, adding personality and an approachable upscale aesthetic, while respecting the personal touches Mr. Portman bestowed.

The repositioning of the lobby bar and café is of particular note as it aims for a stronger connection to the active surrounding neighborhood. Located next to the areas busiest train station, and directly connected to the bustling America’s Mart, the hotel features 206 guestrooms, fitness center and over 4,000 sf of meeting space.
Renaissance Wind Creek Aruba Resort, Ocean Suites is the 259-key, resort-style, beachfront, all-suite hotel section of the Renaissance Aruba Resort and Casino. Located in the marina area, adjacent to downtown Oranjestad’s shopping, dining and nightlife, this resort is perfect for those seeking an active vacation. Aruba, a place where the crashing surf meets the wind-blown desert sands. Flowering cacti and colorful, multicultural buildings stand out boldly against the rugged landscape of Aruba. Sculpted cliff side rock formations weathered from the sea and wavy textured sands glowing pink as the sunset alongside the sculptural forms of the local divi-divi tree reflecting over the clear depths of the turquoise water define the ‘happy island’ and its landscape of many personalities.
The suite design transports the guests back to that desert oasis. The coral sky and rushing surf appear on the colorful walls, the organic textures of the salt and sand inspire the carpet design and fabric selections while the native cave paintings influence the design of the headboard. Pops of green reference the islands miles of cactus groves and lush vegetation leaving the guest with a sense of warmth and wonder.
Ignited by the discovery of a curious rock in the cool glistening waters of Little Meadow Creek, Charlotte is a city born from the grit and industrious spirit of the nation’s first gold rush. The region’s pebbled creek beds, winding rivers and mysterious woods where settlers hoped to strike it rich provide the framework for an inspired design approach of the new UNC Charlotte Marriott.
Complimented by artful earth elements, a neutral color palette brings serenity to the hotel spaces. Aspirational luxury is realized through metallic touches, reminiscent of the treasure twinkling between the sand in the old settler’s gold pans. Neutral and earth-tone accent colors emulate the local river systems, with intricate line and pattern work highlighting the local woods.
The largely undeveloped, pristine water features and forest cover on the UNC Campus provide a stunning backdrop and immerses this ground-up project in the outdoor recreational lifestyle of the surrounding community. This hotel will create memorable experiences and serve as a celebration of Charlotte’s unique history.

Wind Creek Bethlehem was awarded a 2024 ASID Design Excellence Award - Gold in the Hospitality Hotels & Resorts category.
The hotel is positioned within the extraordinary site of a prominent steel mill adjacent to the Lehigh River, with historic buildings and industrial infrastructure dating to its time as the nation’s second largest steel producer, and largest shipbuilder. The building’s design and interiors draw from that context in reference and in spirit of the ingenuity and artistry of what was produced there.
The fiery artisan narrative pays homage to Bethlehem’s unique past with a fresh new vision of its vibrant future. Integration of steel craftsmanship with the artisanal culture of the Poarch Creek Indian Tribe manifest a unique, distinctive experience for guests.
The union of modern sleek industrial features with natural, artisanal elements juxtaposed with bold colors of orange, reds, golden yellow, and peacock blue activates the spirit of the new Wind Creek Property. The design palette and artwork drew inspiration from the historic steel mills and the fiery molten iron processing. Wind Creek Hotel & Casinos guest target is a ‘hotel for women.’ The hotel features luxurious finishes within in the guestrooms and the spa that focus on the female centric experience. The project utilizes mixed materials such as stone, metals and woods, combined with luxurious fabrics and carpet textiles. Custom crystal and glass light fixtures throughout the hotel.
Dorado | Puerto Rico
A luxurious waterfront mixed-use development consisting of a 280 key four-star resort, an 80 key five-star resort, 34 luxury condo units, conference facilities, a spa, and numerous F&B retail support and amenity functions.
TVS provided master planning for the site including creation of lagoons, 25 waterfront villas, and a casino as part of future development. The development is driven by its connection with nature, taking advantage of an extraordinary beachfront and lush tropical vegetation.
The two resort hotels are interconnected, sharing services and amenity areas while offering unique experiences for its guests. Inspired by water, the 4-star resort exhibits a conceptual flow from the rivers and lagoons experienced upon arrival, out across the expansive pools, and to the beach beyond. The five-star property takes advantage of its unique position at the point of an outcropping with sweeping, dramatic, long-range coastal views. Here the design is more immersive and organic, highlighting the qualities of a tropical forest and connecting with the natural coastline and connection with the ocean.
A new vision for the Dorado Beach site focuses on premium luxury, with a small 30-key hotel and 80 residential units in a series of mid-rise towers surrounding common resort amenities. The units are extraordinary — each has ocean views, expansive terraces for indoor/outdoor living, and are generous in scale with full kitchen and dining areas. The hotel offers 1, 2 and 3-bedroom configurations, while the residential units add 4 and 5-bedroom penthouse offerings that, inclusive of outdoor areas and private pools, span over 10,000 sf to accommodate families or group travel.

Hot Springs | Arkansas
The design of this hotel renovation was inspired by local influences including the lush landscape of the nearby Hot Springs National Park, the shapes and patterns found in the architecture of the iconic bath houses along Bathhouse Row just a few blocks away, and the transparency, texture and sparkle of the local quartz crystal. The design was driven by the concept and strategically crafted to meet brand standards.
The client engaged the design team to reimagine the property’s guestrooms and public spaces, including reception, atrium with bar and breakfast buffet, restrooms, fitness center, ballrooms and meeting rooms. Additionally, areas were converted to add additional meeting rooms to maximize the property’s revenue targets. 246 guestrooms were renovated across all space types, including king and double queen rooms, corner suites, two presidential suites and all ADA rooms, which included conversions and updates to meet current codes.
TVS has been working with The Ritz-Carlton brand for almost two decades. Our experience includes a wide spectrum of scope from repositioning projects to major expansions, interiors to architecture, and guestrooms to public space. We’ve built a trusted relationship with the brand and owners which has led to several projects at multiple properties for our repeat clients.
Amelia Island | Florida
The Ritz-Carlton at Amelia Island is an idyllic location on the Atlantic for weddings and business meetings. They found they needed an additional ballroom to serve their business needs, but their site was restricted. The new ballroom was located on top of an existing parking garage, providing an additional 12,000 sf of ballroom, prefunction and public space. The ballroom design had to work with the existing deck structure, so the design challenge was to place all of the required functions within that system, and create a space that is subdivided into eight salons, and yet works well as a single space for large receptions. The theme for the redesigned property revolves around the southern coastal imagery, so motifs involving water, magnolias, and live oaks were selected for the interiors.
The exterior is an updated traditional expression of the existing property. The addition acts to mask the parking garage and fits seamlessly with the larger façade of the existing hotel building. The service connections and several meeting spaces were modified to provide the tie-in to the existing service system, and the back-of-house systems for the meeting facility were reorganized and streamlined.
Naples | Florida
A jewel on the Florida Gulf Coast, The Ritz-Carlton, Naples needed to be refreshed. TVS led the design team to update three restaurant and bar locations, a junior ballroom, the club lounge, and all guestrooms and suites, as well as hurricane resistant windows. With a very short construction window, the hotel was closed for two months and reopened in the fall of 2013 with a completely new appearance and enhanced guest experience.
Our work at the property has spanned multiple additional projects including meeting and ballroom renovations and updates to the bar and restaurants.
