The Challenge : Hotel Celare’s rooftop bar, The Vick, and lounge spaces needed custom seating solutions that would blend seamlessly with the hotel’s bold and inviting aesthetic. The project required a mix of curved banquettes with integrated planter boxes, corner banquettes, plush lounge sofas, and a statement-making blue velvet sofa. With a highly collaborative design and procurement process, clear communication and adaptability were essential to ensure every detail met the client’s vision and functional needs.

The Solution: Fortner worked closely with designers, procurement teams, and project managers to deliver high-quality, custom-built seating tailored to the space. Our expertise in commercial-grade craftsmanship and problem-solving allowed us to navigate design adjustments, material selections, and project timelines seamlessly. The result? A collection of stunning, durable seating pieces that enhanced the hotel’s atmosphere and guest experience.
