HOTEL DESIGN:
The interior design of Gilded is an integral part of the brand concept – a clever twist on golden age. This hotel is the fun, fame and fashion of an historical era brought into the bright new light of today.
Designer Rachel Reider sought inspiration from rococo, beaux arts, and the other popular styles of the Gilded Age when designing the interiors. Get ready for the boldest Lark Hotel yet with a stairway filled with gold mirrors and frames, plush carpets, bright and colorful wallpapers, lacquered surfaces, and gold accents.
All combine to create envelope-pushing decor unlike anything found in Newport (or anywhere in New England for that matter).
