Hotel art

Hotel hall­ways are long by neces­sity and not meant to be places to spend time in. Look­ing out from the lift door all you nor­mally see are the signs with the room num­bers on them. Often barely leg­i­ble and hardly ever designed in the typo­graphic sense. The Sher­a­ton in Bozen, resp. Bolzano, seems to have thought about this sit­u­a­tion and came up with this still-life. Many small LEDs remind us of the bright lights used by hotels near rail­ways sta­tions in order to attract pass­ing trav­ellers. Not exactly lit­er­a­ture, but more than the usual thought­less­ness extended to tem­porar­ily home­less guests.
