Project Breakdown: Cleveland’s Fidelity Hotel

The building’s original layout—once home to ground-floor retail—presented a unique challenge for the design team, who aimed to open up the space while preserving some of its historic boundaries.

To establish a sense of flow and continuity, archways and trim pieces were introduced, guiding guests from one area to the next. Sage green tones and eclectic furnishings contribute to the inviting atmosphere. “We were going for a lot of color and pattern,” Ciszczon says.
