Design Around the World: Amsterdam City Highlights

I wanted to feature a few more things that I loved in the city of Amsterdam on my recent trip there. I went with my friends Nikki and Natalie who also own companies, and it was such a great getaway. Be sure to read my other blog posts about the trip, and watch my Design Around the World videos on YouTube!

The city of Amsterdam is a global hub for creativity and innovation. It’s filled with iconic architecture, art, and urban planning. There is an old world charm and contemporary flare that sets it apart from the rest of the world.

I stayed in Hotel Nobleman. Each room was themed. Mine had dark walls, camel colored leather, a copper bathtub, gold detailing everywhere, and mini stroopwafels left for me every day! I highly recommend staying there, it was so much fun. The design features of this hotel had to be some of my all time favorites from the trip.

Everywhere you go in Amsterdam, there are bikes, reflecting the historic city’s commitment to environmental stewardship, which I loved. I learned there are more bikes than people in The Netherlands which is so interesting!

Overall, the city itself was so amazing. I know why it’s so famous now! I was filled with new design inspirations by coming to see this part of the world. Stay tuned for my blog post about the Rijksmuseum coming up!
