Ritz-Carlton Baku
Cultural Canvas
Following new interior styling, FF&E design, and art curation, the hotel's opening within an iconic tower marks the Ritz-Carlton’s debut in Azerbaijan.
The remodel adds local character and vibrant colour to an existing hotel interior, and elevates them to the brand's standards. It reflects the city’s cultural influences, pulling in distinct colours and patterns from local crafts.
The lobby showcases two bronze sculptures created with local fashion designer Faik Kerim, with embroidered fabric featuring local patterns.
