The Marriott Hotel was undergoing a major facility remodel that included a complete replacement of the exterior wall finish.  CP&A was part of a team that included a new Owner based in California, a construction technology consultant from Atlanta, and the same general contractor CP&A worked with on the Aladdin Holiday Inn Hotel in Kansas City, Missouri.  CP&A served as the local architect-of-record and prepared the construction and permit documents based on details and materials approved by the Atlanta consultant.  CP&A also provided construction administration services including field observations, submittals review, final inspections and quality control at project closeout.

 

The new Owner wanted to enliven the existing, tired single-color building façade with multiple colors.   CP&A prepared many design options by digitally manipulating an existing color photograph, presented the options for the Owner to final approval, and arranged for actual material samples of the approved colors.

 

At the Owner's request, CP&A also served as the local architect-of record for the remodel of all guest rooms and all meeting rooms and ballrooms, working closely with the Owner's interior design consultant.  Both of these projects had very tight time frames to minimize the number of guest rooms taken out of service, and to ensure the ballrooms were available for events already booked.  The team worked very closely to meet all the deadlines and deliver a completely remodeled hotel facility that reflected the needs of today's discerning travelers.
