Overview
Capri Southampton is a boutique hotel located off the northern peninsula of Southampton, distinguished by its deep blue and vibrant yellow palette. Drawing inspiration from its elegant decor, the project embraced a vintage bathing club aesthetic, incorporating polka dots, bold stripes, and clean vignettes. The design approach unified the hotel's branding and storytelling, creating a cohesive and memorable guest experience. Halftone patterns from archival poolside photos further enriched the visual narrative, blending nostalgia with contemporary sophistication.

Custom postcards were introduced in guest rooms, encouraging visitors to connect with loved ones while promoting future stays. These contributions elevated Capri Southampton’s appeal as a unique destination, setting it apart in the competitive boutique hotel market.
