Mood Media Case Study: Aloft Hotels
http://us.moodmedia.com/case-study-aloft
The challenge—help Aloft bring the vision for a unique hotel to life with a complete customer experience that included music, visuals, scent, and a custom system design.
Mood designers developed a trendy soundtrack that captured the Aloft’s savvy vibe and delivered it through a new Bose “turtle speaker” system that produces a rich, full tone with minimal hardware. Mood extended the social atmosphere by creating the WXYZ Bar experience, using music and custom visuals to foster a fashionable and fun setting. With a stunning LCD visual experience, a welcoming scent, and an enjoyable sound, every guest is fully immersed in the Aloft experience, achieving the unique feel that Starwood envisioned from the start.
