Voyageur Stays is proud to announce its recognition as the recipient of the Best New Development or Renovation (Under $2 Million) award at the 2024 In Business Commercial Design Awards for their renovation of their 21-unit extended stay apartment building, The Medallion. The Voyageur Stays Team collaborated with Dutch designer Arno Hoogland during this project. The team wanted to prove mid-term hospitality consumers would value a strong investment in design and handcrafted production. They also wanted to show that building things by hand doesn’t necessarily have to be more expensive than buying mass-produced items. They focused on innovative fabrication techniques including CNC robotics, plywood steamforming, laser cutting, and 3D printing. The Medallion is a true gesamtkunstwerk- all elements are designed in harmony with each other.
The In Business Commercial Design Awards celebrate excellence in commercial design across various categories, and this recognition reinforces Voyageur’s mission to deliver exceptional extended stay experiences in Madison.
