A hotel set like a typeface.

THE BRIEF

Oro had three hotels, three logos and a booking site that sent guests to someone else. The buildings were beautiful; the brand was not.

THE APPROACH

We treated the group like a type family: one wordmark, three weights, one per hotel. Signage, keycards and the site share the same quiet grid, so guests always know where they are.
