Fairmont Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Gensler considered and designed every detail of this office/hotel/condominium project — from its strategic location to it furnishings — for optimal economic, environmental and community benefit. Highly efficient office and hotel floor plates optimize lease and planning spans, while the hotel’s interiors feature steel and glass elements, a nod to the city’s industrial past, as well as works by local artists. The lobby’s high ceiling draws in abundant natural light, setting the tone for an asymmetric grand staircase that leads to the restaurant. Guest rooms, with color schemes inspired by Pittsburgh’s rivers and bridges, convey a timeless aesthetic and spacious feel through thoughtful design details and elegantly simple furniture.
