MIST

Inclusive Hotel Shower Experience

Interior Design | Inclusive Design

Accessible tourism is the fastest-growing sector in the hospitality industry, yet it's also the most underserved. Consider this: hotels with over 300 rooms are only required to have 1% ADA-accessible rooms. These rooms often focus on accessibility in the shower area, but the result can feel sterile and clinical, reminiscent of a hospital. Introducing Mist – a luxurious, inclusive shower experience designed for everyone, regardless of physical ability. Mist transforms accessible bathrooms from functional to fabulous, providing an elegant and seamless experience for all guests.
