The Radisson Edwardian Group 5 -star Hampshire Hotel on London's Leicester Square has selected Artcoustic Loudspeakers to provide high quality audio throughout the bars, restaurant and lobby. Artcoustic Diablo Monitors together with DFS100-75 and DFS75-55 subwoofers were integrated beautifully into this stunning hotel right in the heart of London's West End. Ideally located on Leicester Square in the heart of London, the exclusive Radisson Edwardian Hampshire Hotel combines grandeur, elegance and comfort. This stunning luxurious hotel provides an ideal base from which to work or play. With its polished marbled floors and mahogany-panelled walls hung with classic art (including Oliver Richardson's highly regarded Sargent paintings) this central London hotel is a perfect combination of ornate refinement and modern technological amenities. Not so long ago, hotel interiors were virtually interchangeable. From the reception to the bar, there was a uniformity that was both predictable and uninspiring. Today, however, architects and designers are looking to create points of difference that will make a hotel stand out from the competition and this includes providing the latest in state of the art audio technology. For hotels, staying a step ahead of the competition is more challenging than ever. Not only is it imperative to create the right look and ambience throughout but a key part to being successful is to provide a loudspeaker system that combines aesthetics and sound quality without sacrificing one to the other. “More and more we are seeing interior designers looking for ways to bring a distinctive edge to their projects. We have been involved in several hotel projects, where the hoteliers are looking to enhance their visitors comfort and surroundings. Artcoustic are perceived as a way of bringing welcoming sound and ambience to a room and are a strong focal point to the surroundings”, says Paul Cummins, Artcoustic UK Sales Director. The one and only solution for interior designers of hotels and other high-end commercial interiors is to include Artcoustic loudspeakers into their interior decor. They are fully aware that the loudspeakers provide top audio quality and beautiful design options. Artcoustic can be seen in key areas of the hotel: the reception, lobby and hallways have been equipped with these state of the art speakers. The result is a perfectly even sound pressure level throughout the hotel and complete integration with the look of the décor. The speakers’ front covers were also carefully chosen to match the walls of the restaurant and bar. There's far more to establishing a central theme for a restaurant and bar than deciding on the type of food to serve. A successful identity also involves creating a convincing décor and a welcoming ambience. The Radisson Edwardian Group Design Team is all too aware that a successful restaurant embodies all of the senses in order to achieve a wonderful experience. With sound being one of them, the group has again selected Artcoustic as the speaker of choice to provide the perfect audio atmosphere for their premises.
