an original way to mark room numbers


I’ve already mentioned my delight in the rooms at Hotel PUR in Quebec city, but one of my favorite design elements was visible before I even entered my room. Walking off the elevator I was immediately struck with the way the room numbers were displayed. Forget bronzed numbers above the peephole, or small plaques next to the door. These numbers were bold, bright orange and located at the base of each door. I thought the overall look was fantastic. I’m definitely stealing this idea at some point! –Erica P.

We stayed at the Mercer and I liked their numbers on their brushed metal doors.
Sorry for the bad link – this was our room:

Tres chic and safe too. In case of fire, you would crawl along the hallway looking for an exit. Visible numbers could literally be a life saver.
