It’s been a decade in the making, but The Stratford has finally opened its doors. The latest venture from Harry Handelsman of property development company, Manhattan Loft Corporation, the 145-room hotel is the final piece of the Manhattan Loft Gardens project, which also includes The Lofts, a collection of 248 fully furnished apartments meant for short or long-term stays, which opened earlier this year.

这是在制造中的十年，但是Stratford终于打开了它的门。这家位于曼哈顿阁楼公司的房地产开发公司HarryHannelsman的最新创业公司是曼哈顿阁楼花园项目的最后一部分，该项目还包括LOFT，共有248家设备齐全的公寓，旨在提供短期或长期住宿，今年早些时候开业。

Inspired by the glamorous long-term residents of New York’s legendary hotels in the 1950s, Handelsman is on a mission to freshen up traditional hospitality and high-rise living, by merging both the The Lofts, The Stratford hotel and the public spaces in an innovative, immersive concept.

在20世纪50年代由纽约著名的酒店的迷人的长期居民所启发，汉德曼斯(Handelsman)在一个创新的、沉浸式的概念中融合了“阁楼”、“Stratford酒店”和“公共空间”(公共空间)，从而使传统的接待和高层生活变得更加清新。

Located in East London’s Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, the 42-storey double-cantilevered building, by Skidmore, Owings - Merrill (SOM) – the architects behind iconic skyscrapers like the Burj Khalifa – is also a refreshing departure from Handelsman’s previous building revival projects, like St Pancras Renaissance Hotel and Chiltern Firehouse, for which he is best-known.

Signe Bindslev Henriksen and Peter Bundgaard Rützou of Danish design studio, Space Copenhagen have layered the hotel’s light-filled guestrooms and public spaces – which includes the lobby, Mezzanine bar and Allegra, the 7th floor restaurant – with their particular brand of, what they call, ‘poetic modernism’. This translates to a muted colour palette, rich, tactile materials – like natural woods and warm metals – and clean-lined, softly curved upholstered shapes that are revealed through a mix of bespoke pieces (like the bathroom vanities and mirrors, beds, bedside tables, and desks) and furniture from their existing collection with brands such as Gubi, Stellar Works and Benchmark.

On the ground floor, the capacious triple-height triangular lobby is anchored by a 10-metre tall fireplace, a standout installation called ‘Murmuration’ by designer Paul Cocksedge, and a curved interior balcony, that juts out from the The Mezzanine bar, encouraging both intimacy and a convivial atmosphere. ‘We loved the idea that the balcony opened up the space to interaction,’ explain the design duo. ‘We wanted to create an inviting space, almost like sitting in a town plaza.’

在底层，宽敞的三层三角大厅由一个10米高的壁炉固定，设计师保罗·科基奇(Paul Cocksedge)设计了一个名为“Murmuration”的突出设施，还有一个弯曲的室内阳台，从夹层酒吧伸出，既鼓励了亲密感，也鼓励了一种愉快的气氛。“我们喜欢阳台打开空间进行互动的想法，”解释了这对设计二重奏。“我们想要创造一个诱人的空间，就像坐在城市广场上一样。”

This is further boosted by the bar and the open kitchen of The Stratford Brasserie, which hums from the first plate of eggs served in the morning to last orders at night. Meanwhile, the hotel’s other standout features include the soon-to-open Allegra by Patrick Powell, the former head chef Chiltern Firehouse; three cedar-lined landscaped Sky Gardens with sprawling London views; and artwork like the specially commissioned six-ton moving liquid sculpture by Petroc Sesi.

这是由酒吧和StratfordBrasserie的开放式厨房进一步推动的，它从早上供应的第一批鸡蛋到晚上的最后一个订单。与此同时，酒店的其他突出特点包括：前头大厨ChilternFirehouse的帕特里克·鲍威尔（patrickpell）即将打开的Allegra；3个柏木衬里的景观花园，有着庞大的伦敦景观；以及像专门委托的6吨移动液体雕塑（PetrocSesi）创作的艺术品。

And, with the likes of Sadler’s Wells, the V-A East, BBC Symphony Orchestra and London College of Fashion soon to set up shop in this burgeoning district, it seems Stratford is on the rise. But then again, you’d expect nothing less from Handelsman, who certainly has a nose for sniffing out emerging destinations.§
