The Raffles Boston Back Bay Hotel, designed by Stonehill Taylor, blends Boston's rich cultural narratives into its architecture. The building features a grand spiral staircase with copper accents and a naturalistic motif inspired by local botanical gardens and historical elements. The 33-story structure emphasizes an elevated experience above the city's noise, incorporating a hand-blown glass chandelier and thoughtfully designed guest spaces that reflect a cohesive narrative. The unique layout facilitates seamless transitions between spaces while maintaining a strong connection to the cityâs identity.
The journey of the 33-story tower at 40 Trinity Place begins at street level where dark stone tiles and a hand-blown glass petal chandelier establishes the botanical motif that unfolds throughout the building.
What distinguishes Stonehill Taylor's approach was their excavation of place-specific narratives... into a cohesive material manual that permeates throughout every space.
