The Lord Elgin Hotel is renowned for its historic charm and timeless elegance. The challenge lay in designing a door that not only harmonizes with the interior of the Lord Elgin Hotel but also serves as a striking focal point in the newly renovated Trillium Room.
Drawing upon modern and traditional woodworking techniques, our artisans meticulously crafted a custom arched door from rich red oak. Every detail was carefully considered to ensure seamless integration with the room’s architectural aesthetics and historical significance.
1. Craftsmanship: Our skilled artisans imbued the door with intricate detailing, capturing the essence of classic elegance while embracing contemporary design sensibilities. The archway’s smooth finish and intricate detailing highlight the natural beauty of the wood.
2. Material Selection: Red oak, renowned for its durability and warmth, was chosen for its ability to age gracefully and impart a sense of enduring beauty to the space. The red oak’s rich tones provide a welcoming entryway to the Trillium Room, seamlessly blending with the hotel’s elegant interior design.
The culmination of our dedication to craftsmanship and attention to detail is a door that transcends time, gracefully bridging the past with the present. As the centerpiece of the Trillium Room, the custom arched door invites guests to experience the hotel’s storied charm from the moment they enter. Its rich hues and fine craftsmanship not only enhance the room’s ambiance but also evoke a sense of refinement and exclusivity.
