The Campaign
Not having to look far, we sought inspiration right from our backyard. We worked alongside Studio Aisslinger to create a hotel brand experience that digs out and celebrates beloved spots, music, design and other things of local interest. The result is a unique and homegrown community that unlocks Stockholm to the curious visitor.
Creative Execution
The Hobo mark takes its letterforms from beloved Stockholm structures – Kaknästornet, Slussen, Sergels torg and Hötorgsskrapan. Like the logo, the rest of the identity is based around our favorite ’smultronställen’ in Stockholm. Through out the hotel the logo is represented in different ways; as a bookshelf, as a locking-device for schampoobotles or simple signs in the breakfast area.

Of Stockholm’s 150+ hotels, not one meaningfully connects today’s creative-minded traveler to the dynamic life and trends that the city is known for. Most hotels attempt to appeal to travelers by unnaturally emulating other city hotels like those of New York and London. The true Stockholmer’s hotel is long overdue.
