Thanks! I travel quite a bit for work and therefore stay from time to time in fancier "design hotels." Especially before the construction phase, I always specifically booked into something like that (The hotel chain van der Valk in Holland is always a design highlight!) You learn a lot here about traffic flow, color combinations, lighting planning, and materials. For example, you can see well here which materials are low-maintenance, scratch-resistant, etc., after constant and rather careless use by hotel guests (carpet flooring, fixtures, tiles, wooden furniture, etc.).

If I liked something, I took a photo of it. Here are a few examples just from the van der Valk hotels:

Fireplace with leather cover!



Fireplace with slate cladding



Illuminated hallway wall



I always wanted to highlight the staircase. First with moss, then also with leather (but that was too dark), and finally with tiles --> low-maintenance, no smudges from the kids, and more elegant than decorative plaster, wallpaper, or paint.

You just have to be careful and be very specific about how you want it, because some tilers might think of slaughterhouse aesthetics, so the wall can be steamed clean. Some visits to craftsmen or other advisors in their homes quickly made me realize that we are talking about different things.

I wouldn’t worry; worst case being called to dinner with an echo, that has something... I like bold decisions!

The tile is called "Flaviker Rebel Emerald". Costs ~50€/sqm I could also imagine cladding the fireplace with it.
