Hotel AKA Boston Common, with its public space renovation led by visionary Rafael de Cárdenas, Ltd., showcases a dynamic design interplay of sculptural elements, custom furnishings, and unexpected contrasts. a.bar, the intimate cocktail space, showcases a striking wall of figured sycamore wood paneling, Cassina leather bar stools, and custom-designed pieces—including a green-hued sofa and sculptural teardrop-shaped cocktail tables—create an inviting yet unexpected aesthetic, enhanced by theatrical lighting from Studio Atomic that shifts from warm amber to vibrant hues throughout the evening. Complementing this, guestrooms, redesigned by Studio NA.GI, embrace a Scandinavian-inspired simplicity with natural materials and soft natural tones.
