Next Place Hotel offers an exclusive stage for the world’s leading figures in contract hospitality. It’s where top decision-makers in design, development, and hotel operations converge, creating a high-profile platform that shapes the future of hospitality design.
Organized by Medelhan, the global network connecting leaders and top players in design and hospitality, Next Place Hotel unites the international community driving innovation in branded residences, mixed-use developments, lifestyle environments, and hybrid spaces for living, working, and traveling
BRERA & AROUND THE CITY
The heart of the initiative is NEXT PLACE BRERA, located at Foro Buonaparte 70 within Studio Nunziante Magrone, which hosts the project. The exhibition brings together an international group of companies and designers. Developed in collaboration with Medelhan, it reflects a shared commitment to craft, cultural awareness, and longevity, with each piece selected and positioned in relation to how the space is experienced.
The project is led and curated by OBMI, an international design studio with 90 years of experience across master planning, architecture, and interior design, specialising in hospitality environments, resorts, and mixed-use destinations worldwide.
The collaboration is developed under the direction of Jacqueline Tan Co, Senior Lead Designer at OBMI, the space is shaped through a hospitality led perspective. The approach considers how people arrive, move, and spend time within the space, with each element placed to create a sense of ease and quiet confidence, where materials, proportions, and detail invite closer attention and allow the space to be enjoyed at a natural pace.
