DALLAS, TX -- One of Daltile’s most versatile tile assortments, Keystones, is being featured prominently in the new look of the recently launched Yowie Hotel. Yowie is located in Philadelphia’s Queen Village, a historic neighborhood simmering with modern energy. The hotel is the brainchild of entrepreneur, Shannon Maldonado, whose adjacent lifestyle shop/design studio was named “The Coolest Shop In Philadelphia” by Bon Apétit magazine. Yowie is billed as “offering a thoughtfully-curated guest stay providing a unique experience”, fostered in part by each guest room being designed with a different bright color as its prominent vibe. Daltile’s Keystones tile collection helps bring this vision to life by providing a myriad of vibrant colors from which the hotel’s interior designer was able to choose.
“Color impacts the way we feel and our experience of a space,” said Laura Grilli, director of product design for Daltile. “One of today’s hottest trends, which I like to call ‘Elevate Life’, is included in our Daltile Trend Report 2023. The trend of Elevate Life embodies a bold positivity, celebrated with mood-boosting colors that foster the desire for fun, surprise, humor and engagement by unleashing vibrant hues. The Yowie Hotel is a real-life example of lifting spirits by making every guest room a custom space, each bathed in a prominent color that differs from the other guest rooms in the hotel. Daltile’s Keystones tile collection was the perfect design tool for this project as it puts today’s most popular vibrant colors at an interior designer’s or homeowner’s finger tips to help them wrap their space in a color that creates just the right feel. For Yowie, Keystones’ Sunshine, Deep Purple, Waterfall, Black, Nautical Blue, Brownberry, Lime Sherbet and a custom Black Ebony and Arctic White pattern were selected to radiate fun energy in each space.”
