WESTIN BONAVENTURE

Building on Portman’s bold architectural expression at the Westin Bonaventure, MFLA infused the property with an updated expression in texture, pattern, and materiality. The lobby’s massive pools were reinterpreted by developing ‘lanterns’ from outdated planters and calming the water effects to recalibrate and scale the building’s thresholds.

People perceive their environments through their five senses. I weave elements of sensory appeal into the design... Create environments that all people find instinctively harmonious.
