The InterContinental San Francisco Undergoes Renovation

SAN FRANCISCO—Two Bay Area-based design firms, BraytonHughes Design Studios and EDG Design, are updating the interiors of the InterContinental San Francisco, the South of Market San Francisco high-rise hotel.

Targeted for completion in Fall 2019, the renovation will include a refreshed cosmopolitan design inspired by the hotel’s vibrant location and city history. BraytonHughes was responsible for re-imagining the hotel’s guestrooms, corridors, and meeting and event spaces while EDG Design was responsible for re-designing the lobby, arrival, and restaurant and bar spaces.

“This redesign comes at an important time for San Francisco and its many travelers,” said Peter Koehler, general manager of InterContinental San Francisco. “We host guests who attend meetings, explore the city, and dine in our world-class restaurants. The InterContinental San Francisco will continue to be a destination that exceeds the standard for modern luxury.”

“It’s an exciting time to design in the Bay Area,” said Jennifer Johanson, EDG president and CEO. “The convergence of culture, tech, and capital has made San Francisco a global beacon of innovation. The spaces that catalyze and support this cutting-edge thinking must follow suit.”

“Our goal was to create inspiring, flexible, and functional spaces that blur the line between work and play,” Johanson added. “Big ideas, creatives, and risk takers are what make San Francisco a global beacon for technology. Our design for the restaurant and bar reflects this—it’s where cultures converge and cutting-edge thinking takes place.”
