Architecture Scandinavian ideals
More than looking Scandinavian, the hotel embraces its ideals—lightness, honesty, utility, and durability.
The design team gutted a characterless structure built in 1961 and reinvented the space with a dose of minimalism. With an emphasis on long-term function, in addition to form, 11 Howard is intentionally not trendy; its goal is to endure, and even to improve with time. “It’s not about being fashionable,” explains the hotel’s creative director Anda Andrei. “It’ll never feel dated.”

11 Howard describes its raison d’etre as “conscious hospitality”, which begins with the property’s design.
A collaborative creation between Anda Andrei Design and influential Danish firm Space Copenhagen, 11 Howard’s 207 guestrooms and suites feature custom furnishings by respected Scandinavian names. Here 11-foot-high ceilings and oversized windows allow for abundant natural light—unique in this area of the city.
