Happy Monday! New week with new opportunities! Hope you all had a great weekend! Check out this hip and cool hotel in New York City! Designed by NY-based Roman and Williams, Ace Hotel is improvisational – it’s a mix of materials, styles, and historical periods that comes together in layers. The hotel’s design takes its cues from the vibrancy of street life, the honesty of materials, and the potential of invention. It is about soul, latent in the old architecture and re-introduced through the new design.

The Hotel asked artist Dan Cassaro to create a fun mural for one of its rooms. Cassaro, a freelance designer, animator and print-maker living and working in Brooklyn, happily obliged and used his typography skills to create this quality piece that’s a perfect fit with the hotel’s trademark style.
