PERSONAL INFORMATIONBiographyResume
COUPLE INTRODUCTION
They chose to stay at the Four Seasons Vail Resort because of its commitment to luxury and dedication to their guests. Connor and Emily’s interest in environmental science also drew them to the Four Seasons because of the resort’s commitment to sustainable practice and design.
Meet Connor and Emily.
They have decided on Vail, Colorado as their wedding location. The numerous outdoor activities that Vail has to offer played a large role in why they chose this location, as they hope to explore all Vail has to offer.
They were recently engaged in December and have decided on a small, intimate summer wedding.
The Four Season’s newly relocated spa, Anpassen Salon and Spa, intrigued Connor and Emily. They hope to provide their wedding party and immediate family with a high-end spa experience to relax and celebrate before their big day.
Vail is located in the Northwestern region of the state of Colorado in the United States.
The Town of Vail sits at an elevation of 8,150 feet and Vail Mountain rises to 11,570 feet.
Vail is two hours behind Eastern Standard Time.
The town of Vail was incorporated in 1966. Since then, Vail has grown to become the single largest resort in the United States. It consists of 5,289 acres of diverse skiing and hiking options throughout the 7 mile stretch of mountain. The Tyrolean-style village is lined with various boutiques and shops, all within walking distance of each other. The town of Vail is linked by free shuttles and has heated streets to encourage walking.
With year-round events, from hiking and concerts, to skiing and ice-skating competitions, Vail has plenty of opportunities for exploration and entertainment.
During the summer months, Vail is relatively mild with warm days and chilly nights. During winter months, Vail becomes frigid with ample amounts of snowfall.
VAIL, COLORADO
FOUR SEASONS RESORT AT VAIL
The Four Seasons Resort at Vail seeks to:
Four Seasons Hotels, Inc. is a 5-star luxury international hotel group founded in Canada in 1960. Four Seasons leads the industry against other luxury competitors by rejecting the design standardizations in favor of embracing local architecture and design styles.
Four Seasons Hotels has an unwavering dedication to hospitality standards by:
Providing an exceptional quality of guest experience.
Creating enduring value by investing in superior design features and finishes.
Instilling a sense of dignity, pride, and satisfaction in its employees.
Fostering an environment of mutual respect and teamwork.
Revamp current spa and relocate to larger, adjacent building.
Reflect resort’s current aesthetics.
Create connection to surrounding community.Strengthen and enforce resort’s commitment to sustainability.
DESIGN INTENT NARRATIVE
The concept for the Anpassen Salon and Spa is inspired by the physical changes that occur in the natural surroundings of Vail throughout the four seasons.
At the foot of Vail Mountain in Colorado sits the Four Seasons at Vail, with its European chateau- ambience and warm, mountain-inspired architecture. This year-round resort is the largest, single-mountain resort in the United States; offering a variety of outdoor activities throughout each season. Anpassen Salon and Spa aims to create an environment that adapts to the needs of the human body as they encounter the natural elements. The needs throughout each season are as follows; warmth and relaxing during winter, energizing and revitalizing during spring, cool and refreshing during summer, and rejuvenating and renewal during fall. The physical changes to the surrounding natural environment of Vail throughout each season will serve as inspiration for spatial circulation and aesthetics. Fluid movement from one space to the next will mimic the continuous transition between seasons. However, distinct materiality and lighting will help define the variety of spatial types throughout the spa. This contrast will be made by utilizing different lighting methods, as well as varying hard, dark and soft, light textures and materials.
The materials and furnishings chosen for the spa will directly reflect the Four Seasons dedication to sustainability. Existing floors of the spa’s location will be replaced with reclaimed wood from the entry into public treatment rooms, hair, and nail services. Recycled stone and glass tiles will be installed into all restrooms, locker rooms, and private treatment rooms. To increase the air quality within the spa, low-VOC paints and low-emitting furnishings will be used. Daylight and occupancy sensors will help reduce the amount of energy the spa uses, in addition to low-flow fixtures where plumbing is needed. Lastly, recycling practices are utilized daily by employees to reduce the amount of waste the spa produces.
By combining the human needs and physical changes throughout each season, a unique connection is made between the spa and Vail. It not only blends the surrounding natural environment with the interior space, but evokes a sense of place for patrons. Their experience within Anpassen Salon and Spa will be one that is both luxurious and relaxing, but ultimately one that makes them more aware of their impact on the environment and its impact on them.
ANPASSEN: German: verb, “to adapt or adjust.”
POTENTIAL LOGO DESIGNS
All logos will made by local artisans using salvaged materials from existing Four Seasons Vail spa.
9 VAIL ROAD
The condominiums are adjacent to The Four Seasons at Vail Resort, which will be purchasing the first floor to expand the current spa.

RECEPTION PERSPECTIVE
Upon entry of Anpassen, Connor and Emily are greeted by the receptionist. A custom recycled glass chandelier accentuates the center of the room and sets the luxurious tone of the spa. Rich wood flooring and stone walls salvaged from the existing Four Seasons Vail Spa are used throughout to create a contrasting, natural space.
Glass used for the logo in the reception was recycled from Four Season’s current spa and shaped by a local artisan to create a custom brand for the spa as well as support Vail businesses.
Each circle of this wall art is made from strands of bamboo shaped into a circle. The piece is made of all natural material and is lightweight.

The base of the curved reception desk is made of strand woven aspen panels from Sustainable Flooring. This company’s manufacturing headquarters is located in Boulder, CO, so all wood within the millwork is locally sourced. These panels consist of 100% recycled content. Both the back and the front of the panels can be used for aesthetics. They are made with low-VOC, E0-compliant, and NAUF (No Added Urea Formaldehyde) glues to improve indoor air quality.
RECEPTION MILLWORK
The frosted glass top of the reception desk is salvaged from the spa’s existing location and cut to size. The satin-like finish does not mark with dirt or fingerprints which allows for a sleek, polished look and is easy to clean.

LOUNGE PERSPECTIVE
After checking in, Connor and Emily patiently await their spa treatment in the lounge located directly behind the reception. Dim LED lighting and a bio-ethanol fireplace are used to create an intimate, relaxing setting. Reclaimed wood wall art and a painting made by a local artisan keep guests intrigued as they wait for their appointments.
The fireplace used is a Bio-Blaze wall mounted fireplace. It uses bio-ethanol fuel that burns clean and is non-toxic. It releases very little carbon dioxide and water vapor.
This twisted vine wall artwork is made from reclaimed wood tropical vines. It is easy to hang and requires little maintenance.

PUBLIC TREATMENT AREA PERSPECTIVE
As Connor changes in the locker room for their couples massage, a spa staff member brings Emily a magazine to read in the Public Treatment Area. Neutral tones and textures, along with grand seating cushions and sheer drapery are used to create a soft, inviting seating area.
All fabrics chosen throughout the spa contribute to the spa’s commitment to sustainable practice. Both Green Guard certified and contributions to LEED played a role in selection.
Minimal flooring material selection throughout public spaces and corridors allows for more control over use of recycled and reclaimed materials in the spa.

Connor and Emily make an appointment for an hour long couples massage. The ambient overhead lighting and warm materials create a soothing environment that encourages relaxation. Greenery within the space, as well as throughout the entire spa, helps improve indoor air quality for guests.
Linens in the treatment rooms are regularly washed due to the high number of appointments. However, energy efficient, low-flow washing machines are used to reduce water use.
The masseuse uses massage oils that are non-toxic and sustainable. The packaging of these product lines are non-toxic, rapidly renewable materials.

POOL PERSPECTIVE (INDOORS)
Before heading over to their appointment at the unisex salon, Connor and Emily decide to take dip in the indoor/outdoor pool. The pool’s temperature is maintained by solar panels located on the overhang above the pool. It adjusts to meet the needs of the human body during each season. Recycled stone tile flooring also adjusts its temperature to encourage outdoor use during the winter.
Neutral tones of recycled stone and glass are used primarily in the pool area to avoid slippage and to create a refreshing environment that doesn’t distract from the natural surroundings.
Towels are provided by Anpassen by request to reduce the amount of laundry and water that Anpassen uses.
All appliances to do laundry are low-flow and energy efficient.

The full service salon is located opposite to the spa. The lack of windows on the north end of the building provided ample amount of wall space for equipment. It is a salon that provides amenities for both men and women.

SALON PERSPECTIVE
After freshening up from their swim, Connor and Emily head over to the salon to clean up before the big day. The salon is designed so men and women hair styling stations are located on opposite walls. A neutral color pallet with pops of blue is introduced to create a more energizing and refreshing environment.
While there is no Greenstar salon equipment on the market, Anpassen utilizes occupancy sensors in all areas of the spa to reduce the amount of energy it uses daily.
In addition to the occupancy sensors. all light fixtures use either fluorescent or LED lightbulbs. This allows for up to 80% less energy used. This creates a more natural light that compliments guest features and skin.

After their long, relaxing day at Anpassen, Connor and Emily decide to take a look at the products that are offered in the retail area next to the exit. The aesthetics of the retail are identical to the reception to continue the flow of space. LED light tape highlights where products are displayed on both freestanding fixtures and wall displays.
As stated before, the products Anpassen have to offer are sustainable in both content and packaging, as well as how they are manufactured.
The built-in wall display uses 75% of materials salvaged from the existing Four Seasons Spa.

BIOGRAPHY
I am a fifth year senior in the interior design program at Virginia Tech. Upon entering to college, I knew I wanted to pursue design. However, I did not get into the program right away. I went through the internal transfer process and was set back a year in my studies. At the time, I saw it as a failure, but I believe it has made me a more intelligence and creative design student. Over the past five years, I have maintained Dean’s List each semester and will be graduating with Summa Cum Laude honors this spring.
The knowledge and skills I have learned as a student has been helped me succeed as a professional. I have held intern positions in both Richmond at JMJ Corporation and in Northern Virginia at Fox Architects. These positions have only benefitted and furthered my skills and interest in design. Upon graduation, I hope to continue working and living in Washington D.C. at a firm that has a hospitality design sector. I am both excited and anxious to see what the next chapter of my life will be like and hope I get to experience all that the design world has to offer.
