In a world where comfort is paramount, the hospitality industry is constantly evolving to meet the ever-changing demands of modern travelers.
In this GTHD article, we explore an innovative approach that not only improves the customer experience, but also opens up new avenues for monetizing interior design in hotels, restaurants and shared workspaces. It’s called Reevela.
Reevela’s Mission is clear; to change the way people live and interact with the world of interior design. Imagine living in a hotel and discovering a beautifully designed lamp in your room, enjoying the comfort of your bed or finding the charming candlesticks in the breakfast restaurant. Reevela, which was “Highly Commended” in the Best In Tech category at the Brit List Awards 2023, allows you to transform these moments of curiosity into opportunities for discovery and purchase.
The brand’s Vision is to redefine catering establishments such as hotels, Restaurants and shared workspaces as more than just places to stay, eat or work. Our goal is to transform them into dynamic design showrooms and retail stores.
Here’s how it works. The guests use their mobile devices to scan the objects that arouse their interest. Our innovative visual search technology and machine learning algorithms guarantee instant and accurate results. When the identity of an object is revealed, guests can take different routes — click to buy, BROWSE to learn more or dive deeper into the local culture associated with the place. This approach supports the artisans, designers and artists associated with the property and promotes a sense of connection with the local community.
At Reevela, we allow customers to rediscover the importance of tactile exploration — touch, feel and use – before making purchase decisions. With our solution, your guests can discover, get to know and buy everything they like about their place, from furniture and decorations to Textiles, Accessories, Art, Fashion, Lighting and much more.
A revenue model that benefits everyone
What sets Reevela apart is that it is free for guests and there are no registration or subscription fees for the sites. We take care of the installation and maintenance is minimal. In return, we offer a shared revenue model that allows you to earn a portion of the profits from each item sold following an analysis of your property.
Unlock the value of your design inventory
Consider this: How often do your fixed assets and design inventory increase in value and generate ancillary income? Reevela offers restaurants an exciting opportunity not only to showcase their design choices, but also to monetize them.
Monetizing interior design in the hospitality industry is not just a financial undertaking; it is a transformative approach that improves all aspects of the customer experience. By integrating Reevela into your place, you are not just providing a place to stay, eat or work. They create an immersive journey into the world of design.
Reevela has been designed with the customer experience in mind. It is a transparent process that improves the entire stay. When a guest discovers a fascinating object in his room, the process of exploration and potential purchase is intuitive. You can simply use your mobile device to scan the article and instantly reveal the details, options and even the story behind it.
One of the remarkable aspects of Reevela is its ability to empower local artisans, artisans, designers and artists. When customers explore and buy local and handmade items, they are not only acquiring beautiful items. They also contribute to the livelihoods of talented people in the community. This creates a sense of connection and authenticity that resonates with today’s conscious travelers.
For catering establishments, Reevela offers a unique source of income that complements traditional sources of income. Although room reservations, restaurants and events are essential, the possibility of monetizing your furnishing decisions opens up new opportunities. This is a way to take advantage of the aesthetics of your place and turn it into a profit center.
The interior decoration of your place reflects the identity of your brand. Reevela not only allows you to present your design choices, but also to strengthen the narrative of your brand. Customers can explore the unique aspects of their design philosophy, and each item they purchase becomes a tangible reminder of their experience in your place.
The effect of Reevela goes beyond the duration of a guest’s stay. When guests take home a piece of your place — a distinctive Lamp, a work of art or a stylish Accessory — they also take with them a lasting memory. These items become precious memories that will keep your place in the heart long after your departure. This emotional connection leads to loyalty and the potential for repeat visits or referrals to friends and family.
