Eaton Hotel

The high-profile Eaton Hotel renovation project required extensive efforts to rebrand the existing hotel space and bring a new product to the Washington, DC market. The design for this flagship hotel for the Eaton brand evolved over years of planning and set a design standard for future Eaton Hotels across the world. Eaton’s long-term goal is to create a shift in the traditional hotel model and create a space for people invested in progressive social change, and to do it with style. The client’s goal was to create an open and welcoming appeal to all guests and staff. The space serves as a hybrid concept that spans a hotel, co-working space, cultural hub, and wellness center. Set to achieve LEED Gold certification, all aspects of the project were carefully planned to save resources, from water use and re-use to energy use and reduction, aligning closely with the founder’s commitment to social change.

The HITT team completed a full demolition down to the structure and followed with structural modifications, heavy MEP upgrades, and a complete fit-out package. The repositioning of the rooftop pool area to a new bar / patio area for guests includes an award-winning, one-of-a-kind mosaic artwork piece, hand-selected by the client and design team. High-end finish packages in the public spaces included millwork, glass, stone, terrazzo, reclaimed flooring, and custom tile.
