Dalman Architects has refurbished two levels of hotel rooms at the Elms Hotel, Christchurch.

This is the first stage of a three staged development that will bring this iconic property into the 2020s.

A soft, natural colour and material palette was used to create a comfortable new décor.

The timber bedhead brings the idea of the elm trees at the front of the property into the rooms.

The carpet has been specifically designed to further enhance the natural feel of the rooms.
