Antonia Botero takes us on a deep dive into the evolution of taste in architecture, shaped by her experiences with historic buildings in New York City. We explore the power of intentional design—how the seamless blend of interior and exterior aesthetics can transform a space—and the unique challenges of adaptive reuse projects.
Antonia also shares her journey from architecture to development, highlighting the adaptability and teamwork required to succeed in both fields. We unpack the complexities of working on legendary projects like the TWA Hotel, where every design choice plays a crucial role in crafting a cohesive and compelling space.
To wrap up, we discuss the highs and lows of launching MADDPROJECT, the lessons learned along the way, and Antonia’s favorite hotels around the world—places that embody design excellence and unforgettable experiences. If you’re passionate about architecture, development, or the art of creating remarkable spaces, this episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss!
