Sagamore Pendry Hotel
Sagamore Pendry Baltimore
Sagamore Development, 2017
This world-class hotel’s luxurious ambiance is established through exquisite detail and nostalgic hints to the pier’s storied history. In collaboration with Patrick Sutton Designs and Finndustry, we created the exterior and interior signage elements, dimensional graphics as well as feature walls, including a waterjet cut steel typographic installation of lyrics from The Star-Spangled Banner. With the fine craftsmanship of Gutierrez Studios, the signs are made from solid brass and hot or cold rolled blackened steel to integrate seamlessly with the rich interior finishes. Every element and small detail contributes to create the building’s unique character and the overall visitor experience.

THE BALTIMORE SUN
The complete version of the Star-Spangled Banner rendered in cut steel. The 1814 Battle of Baltimore inspired Francis Scott Key to compose the poem which we now know as our national anthem.
Solid brass icons representing Baltimore history and culture, march up the entry corridor.
“This hotel provides a level of sophistication and gives people a reason to dress up”
