CFR was the MEP Engineer for the conversion of the existing Liaison Hotel to the YOTEL brand standards. YOTEL is a UK based hotel group that designs their spaces with the independent tech-savvy traveler in mind. Their hotels embody a modern minimalistic design and give their guests a sense of community with areas for social gatherings, co-working, and exercise. The hotel expanded from 343 to 399 guestrooms and included MEP design on all floors of the building except the garage. Renovations included exterior façade and café lighting upgrades. First floor renovations included lighting and electrical engineering for common areas, corridors, elevators, meeting spaces, and lobby. Lighting, electrical, and plumbing was provided for the restaurant/bar area and for 80+ guestrooms renovated on the 2nd-9thfloors. There was a major MEP redesign to add ~41 new guestrooms on the 2nd and10th floors in place of old meeting rooms, executive offices and former larger guest suites. This included full MEP design of properly sized HVAC units, bathroom plumbing, lighting, electrical, and fire alarm.

CFR provided MEP and fire protection design services for renovations of 55,300square feet of existing ballrooms, meeting rooms, and pre-function spaces at the Grand Hyatt hotel in Washington, DC. In addition, design was completed for 2,800 square feet of existing executive offices being converted into a Fitness Center. This project was designed as a LEED certified project. CFR focused on energy reduction measures through HVAC and lighting controls, as well as enhanced indoor air quality to maximize LEED points acquired by the project team. The lighting design for this project used color changing cove lighting to provide accents for a wide variety of themed events. White lighting was carefully selected to match custom chandelier color temperatures and light out puts for a balanced and clean appeal. A complete replacement of the lighting control system now allows the hotel staff to easily set scenes, modify settings, and apply “living” color effects for the ballrooms and pre-function areas as needed for unique events.
