  • Mandarin Oriental, New York Making a Design Statement As the City’S Most Elegant Address
    MANDARIN ORIENTAL, NEW YORK MAKING A DESIGN STATEMENT AS THE CITY’S MOST ELEGANT ADDRESS “In the contemporary, culturally diverse city of New York, Mandarin Oriental is a respite from the hustle and bustle, a hotel where Oriental East meets East Coast. The hotel is stylish and elegant yet not intimidating – the sleek lines used throughout speak of New York, while artwork and textile accents whisper of the Orient.” – Sandra Cortner, Senior Project Designer, HBA/Hirsch Bedner Associates When Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group opened its flagship property in the Americas in December 2003, the odyssey of planning and design was immediately evident to local New Yorkers and hotel guests. Working within the framework posed by internationally renowned architect David M. Childs of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, who designed Time Warner Center, Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group (MOHG) called upon Brennan Beer Gorman (BBG) Architects and Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA) to design its new flagship hotel, Mandarin Oriental, New York. The overall structure of the center includes a stone and glass base housing a four-story retail complex, as well as Time Warner’s world headquarters and Jazz at Lincoln Center. Rising from the stone base are two crystalline buildings; the hotel resides in the center’s north building, spanning floors 35 through 54, with entry from West 60th Street between Broadway and Columbus Avenue. The unusual parallelogram shape of the buildings provided the biggest challenge for HBA and BBG architects, who were presented with the task of designing a hotel with 244 spacious rooms and suites, while creating room for housekeeping and food and beverage facilities.
