VP ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN, IAN SCHRAGER COMPANY
The Times Square EDITION is a flagship property in the collection of hotels, conceived by Ian Schrager in a partnership with Marriott International, to redefine the luxury hotel landscape by combining design elegance, personalized service with one-of-a kind Food & Beverage and Entertainment offers. The hotel brings a long-awaited new vision to Times Square, New York City’s famed cultural and entertainment mecca, acting as an oasis of sophistication above the hustle and bustle of one of the most vibrant urban centers in the world. It’s housed in a new built 40 story tall structure, featuring 452 rooms and suites.
The hotel lobby bars and restaurants and their expansive terraces were inspired by the L'Orangerie at Jardin des Tuileries in Paris. Thousands of plants, trees and ivy create a multi-level garden in the sky. Their interiors with their rich woods, lush velvets, waxed leathers, polished marbles and smooth metals are combined to create a chic, simple, hip, serene and luxurious setting, an antidote to the hectic life just outside the hotel's doors.
Six restaurant venues with enchanting garden terraces and an innovative club cabaret space have been wired and networked to broadcast hotel parties and events on one of Times Square’s largest LED billboard screen located at the base of the hotel tower.
