The Dérive
The Dérive reimagines the hotel experience for travelers seeking authentic cultural immersion—combining seamlessly integrated tech with a rotating residency program that showcases local artists and culinary talent. Inspired by the spontaneous nature of a dérive, our design system draws from American artisan traditions like quilting, using bold geometry and regional symbolism to create a visual language rooted in place.
