NEW YORK, NY - 2015 “It’s the end of a design era for Super 8. The North American budget hotel chain, which originally offered dirt-cheap room rates of $8.88 per night, is taking down all the artwork in its over 2,000 guest rooms as part of a complete redesign. They’ll soon be replaced with slick, large-scale photographs. Nondescript images of landscapes, wildlife, and flowers hung in frames of all sorts are coming off the walls, some after 40 years, in favor of contemporary black-and-white images. “ - Hyperallergic
To celebrate the redesign of the hotel art, we partnered with Amy Sedaris to offer the old artworks up to the first takers at a one-night-only pop up in SoHo.
