The Marriott Marquis San Francisco was designed to capture the spirit and beauty of San Francisco with its hilltop views of white buildings, which upon further exploration reveal vibrantly colored neighborhoods with their eclectic mixtures of food, music, and architecture. The Marriott Marquis San Francisco is attached to the Moscone Conference Center featuring a contemporary architectural exterior and interior with pops of bright colors on a white background. The guestrooms echo this style with a softer background of grey while accents of bold pinks appear in the fabrics and carefully selected art pieces. Reflective of the city’s layering of contemporary architectural forms, the rooms feature floor to ceiling inspired headboards and a connected series of case pieces. To reflect the materials a guest might view while touring San Francisco, the rooms incorporate the black metal of the cable car tracks, the grey of the concrete sidewalks and many neighborhood stairs. The art pieces in the rooms are a mixture of layered materials and colors echoing the many layers of San Francisco, situated on a series of over 40 hills.

Starting in 2006, the once-unknown name Parker-Torres Design Inc. has since become synonymous with excellent custom service and quality design. Upon stepping into the role of founding partner of Parker-Torres Design, Ms. Torres brought with her an unrivaled passion for interior design, in addition to her passion for working with people. Her wealth of design experience extends to a broad range of property types and styles, but her forte is in working seamlessly with a project team to make the needs of her clients top priority. In the years since the company’s inception, those clients have included developers, asset managers, brand managers, and owners of some of the world’s most respected and influential hospitality outlets. Ms. Torres has served as Director of Design for national projects in Boston, New York, California, and Florida, as well as being the Principal Designer on projects in Turkey, Canada, London, and Dubai, UAE. While she is fluent in all idioms of design, she excels in bringing forward the color and light of a property’s native environment. Ms. Torres’ heart is truly felt in the FF&E Design Selection and Specification phases in the hospitality market. Her affinity for creating her own custom carpet patterns are well-documented, as is her gift for respecting the client’s FF&E budget and parameters of the project-coordination needs.
