Every custom FF&E and millwork piece is verified against a shop drawing before it’s built. Here’s what AKDG reviews, and why it matters, on every hospitality design project.

Hospitality FF&E procurement timelines can significantly affect a project schedule. Learn what lead times mean, what influences them, and how early coordination helps prevent costly delays.

There is a moment in every large-scale hotel FF&E project where the design stops living on a screen and starts living in the real world. For our team at AK Design Group, when a project or client calls for one, the hotel model room review is one of the most revealing, detail-obsessed, and fascinating parts of the process.

This isn’t your typical upper-midscale branded hotel. Located at the heart of a vibrant, mixed-use community called MOSAIC at Chatham Park, this hotel is a true celebration of local culture. From the two-story pottery wall to a rotating gallery featuring works by emerging talent, art is woven into every corner.

What happens when thoughtful design meets an elevated vision? You get the new TownePlace Suites by Marriott in Germantown, Tennessee – a project that redefines extended-stay comfort with style and sophistication.

At AK Design Group (AKDG), we were proud to help bring this vision to life by providing both interior design and FF&E procurement services. From concept to completion, Motto has been an exciting project, offering spaces that are both striking and highly functional.
