Mismatched furnishings create "bipartisan aesthetic" at The Line DC hotel
A mash-up of different styles is used to decorate this hotel in Washington DC, which New York firm INC Architecture and Design created inside an old church.
The Line DC hotel is located in an 110-year-old church in Washington DC's Adams Morgan neighbourhood. The neoclassical marble-clad structure is fronted by pillars and features 60-foot (18-metre) vaulted ceilings, millwork and brass detailing inside.
INC Architecture and Design overhauled the historic building to create the hotel's lobby, two bars and two restaurants, while a new mid-rise masonry construction at the rear accommodates 220 guest rooms.
Inside, mismatched furnishings are placed together to convey an old-meets-new design. Inside the lobby, church organ pipes have been repurposed as an architectural chandelier, and pews act as seating. Curvy, cobalt sofas fill the spacious entrance.
Other pieces include upholstered leather dining chairs and writing desks evocative of a lawyer's office, alongside hexagonal Moroccan coffee tables, and minimal wood and chrome designs.
"The Line DC is the ultimate mash-up of old-school homage and vanguard progressiveness," said a project description from INC Architecture and Design. "A bipartisan aesthetic, if you will."
Throughout the hotel, walls are kept white so as not distract from the eclectic mix of furnishings, while herringbone wood floors are a nod to the site's historic features.
Each room has a custom brass bed frame, a solid oak writing...
