HD Squared Architects provided Interior Design services for the transformation at the Comfort Inn Conference Center and Chessie’s Chesapeake Grill in Bowie, MD. The establishment updated their 7,500 square-foot Conference Center and adjacent Bar to transform the space into a bright and comfortable environment for both engagement and relaxation. Known as a ‘hidden gem’ with ‘surprisingly good crab cakes’…where the ‘lump crab meat is really lump crab meat’, the refurbished bar reveals a taste of contrasting textures that provide an overall sense of comfort and place of sanctuary. Cool blue mosaics reflect energy efficient LED lighting adjacent to a distressed white wood backdrop for the bottles of libations at the back bar. At the bar counter, the seemingly simple light-gray quartz surface reveals its complexity at a closer glance and is supported by a wall of textured stacked stone. Overall, the bar was redesigned with a 21st century appeal.
