COWBOYS DREAM - kuro

A Cowboys Dream, has been branded in a very specialist way, all the aspects of the branding have been applied to the highest standard. this has created an overall feel of a unique approach to the bed & breakfast hotel. the branding mimics a credible cowboy feel to the overall design.
the use of print process such as letter press, brings connotations of authenticity to the brand, it also makes the design look old, which bring across a western feel to the design. the use of branding on the shampoo and hand washes which are kept consistent with the brand identity. shows that this hotel has a passion and believes in the service they are offering. this attention to detail and craft goes to show that the use of considered print and production of print based branding, has created the finishing touches for this hotel which gives it the definite 'WOW FACTOR'

The eight-suite Bed & Breakfast Hotel opened just three months ago, in a small town 90 miles north of Las Vegas. The town attracts visitors with in an interest in wildlife due to its proximity to the Pahranagat National Wildlife Refuge. This B&B Hotel in the Wild West is a tribute to the deceased Mr. Charlie Frias, the beloved husband of Mrs. Phyllis Frias. It seemed only natural that it be brought about by the fulfillment a dream they’d shared together, to create a destination rooted deep in the spirit of family and tradition. Ginger Tharp, Project Design Specialist/Innkeeper designed the exterior and the interior of the house, while minding even the slightest detail and with the assistance of Kuro Interactive Design Agency, who took care of all the graphic, interactive and typography design, created a picturesque setting for anyone who is seeking an extraordinary experience in any one of the eight one-off and unique suites while creating a memorable escape from their everyday lives.

With a background as a furniture broker and in design, Tharp managed to design a well thought of nearly 19,000 square foot B&B Hotel which is a two story wood framed structure, and the bunk house is a single story structure both supported on spread footing foundations with slab on grade floors. Tharp completed all interiors, the furniture, and the interior wall finishes which are unique and special in each and every room with her team from South Carolina. The overall design aura of the hotel gives off a very ranch like style, yet it has a feeling of chic European Chalet Hotels right in the Nevada desert of the Wild West.
