PROJECT OVERVIEW
Studio Allston Hotel underwent a complete transformation from a former Days Hotel into a 117-room hotel that embodies a spirit of adventure and creativity. The property features and celebrates the art of over 20 contemporary artists in its lobby, bar, suites, and in every one of the guest rooms. From a dramatic lobby with the work of pop and street art sensation, Jason Woodside, to a custom treatment in the elevators by Kenji Nakayama, Isenberg Projects acted as the creative producer to curate an immersive experience using cut paper, photography, collage, illustration and graffiti art to the Allston hotel.


The Challenge
Transform the Days Hotel, formally an under performing chain hotel as the worst reviewed hotel in Boston, into a boutique art hotel.
The Outcome
Studio Allston Hotel, a 117 room art-centric hotel in Allston, MA opened in April 2018. From immersive art suites to artist designed hotel rooms, from art vans to an insane lobby installation, the Studio Allston is unlike any other property in the country. Isenberg Projects identified the most strategic areas to get artists involved, built the framework for the multi-phase engagement, curated the artists and managed the implementation throughout the entire project.
