The design team decided to stay true to the roots of the building by maintaining a number of classicly historic details including the exposed brick walls and large plank hardwood flooring. The lobby pays tribute to the building's legacy by offering a space for regional entrepreneurs to sell everything from handmade candles to handblown whiskey and wine glasses. With retro rooms and a cocktail bar that serves a large list of classic New Orleans favorites, The Old No. 77 offers guests a true Louisiana travel experience. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.6/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 34% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Traditional Louisiana Heritage Design:** There is an opportunity for businesses to create products and services that embrace the traditional Louisiana heritage design. - **Historic Building Restoration:** There is an opportunity for businesses to specialize in restoring and repurposing historic buildings for modern use. - **Supporting Local Entrepreneurs:** There is an opportunity for businesses to create spaces that support and showcase products from local entrepreneurs. ### Where This Applies - **Hospitality:** The hospitality industry can tap into the trend of Traditional Louisiana Heritage Design by incorporating regional elements and offerings in their hotels and resorts. - **Construction and Architecture:** The construction and architecture industry can benefit from the trend of Historic Building Restoration by providing expertise and services in preserving and refurbishing historic buildings. - **Retail:** The retail industry can capitalize on Supporting Local Entrepreneurs by creating platforms or spaces for local entrepreneurs to showcase and sell their products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Traditional Southern-Inspired Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maison-de-la-luz.md) - [Exquisite Private Residential Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-columns.md) - [Historically Rooted Elevated Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trilogy-montgomery.md) - [Rail Depot Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/noxx-hotel-marburg.md) - [Rugged Charming Hotel Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-longfellow-hotel.md) - [Mountainside-Inspired Bespoke Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bouchardon-hotel.md) - [17th-Century Converted Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/locke-de-santa-joana.md) - [Retro Nightlife-Inspired Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/htel-chteau-deau.md) - [Exotically Refurbished Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pelican-hotel.md)
