Winning concept by Urban Robot Associates to be revealed at HD Expo + Conference 2020
(LaGrange, GA Feb. 27th, 2020) HD Expo + Conference, the leading hospitality design trade show and conference in North America, has added MGroup™ to the list of prestigious resources providing innovative product to the Hilton Guestroom of the Future project, to debut at HD Expo in Las Vegas. The design contest was won by Urban Robot Associates. A partnership between Hospitality Design and Hilton, the Box challenged 11 design firms to design the guestroom of the future.
MGroup™ will be providing the architectural millwork portion of the project. Known for its creative supply chain stretching around the world, MGroup™ has been able to successfully navigate the trade wars, pandemics and new tariffs and duties to continue to provide innovative answers to an ever-changing supply chain.
Urban Robot Associates, led by principal and creative director Giancarlo Pietri, took home top honors during the competition, which took place during HD Expo 2019 held from May 15-17, 2019 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas. Urban Robot’s wellness-inspired guestroom draws inspiration from the sophisticated yet eclectic destination of Tulum, Mexico. The space combines warm tones and natural materials creating a unique, blended indoor/outdoor space for guests to unplug from the stress of business travel.
“We are extremely excited to collaborate with MGroup™ on this project— the Millwork is a key design element of our concept for creating an immersive atmosphere within the guestroom and MGroup™ has taken an incredible solutions-oriented approach from the onset!” said, Giancarlo Pietri, Principal, Urban Robot Associates.
MGroup™ joins the other sponsoring brands: Artonomy, Kohler, Mohawk, Fabricut, Bryan Ashley, Hubbardton Forge, Tino Stone, Innovative Safes, Porcelanosa, Koroseal, Dormakaba, Quick Drain, Inncom, LG and Mirror Image.
“The Box challenge brings together the best in the industry. From the participating design firms who pushed the boundaries with each submission, to providing a platform to highlight our sponsors’ innovative products, the Box is a look at where the industry is headed,” said Stacy Shoemaker Rauen, Senior Vice President of Emerald’s Design Group and Editor in Chief of Hospitality Design. “We look forward to seeing Urban Robot’s concept design come to life at the 2020 show."
