A Creative Development Studio for Boutique Hospitality Projects
You’re working on an ambitious project with a bold vision.
We partner with people like you. From idea + alignment thru acquisition, fundraising, execution + launch.
STRATEGY, DEVELOPMENT, DESIGN + BRAND
We work with operators, investors, asset managers and private clients to develop hospitality assets, the concepts that make them viable, and the brands that bring them to life.
We bring together commercial rigour, capital alignment and grounded creativity to join the dots between strategy, architecture and interior design, real estate development, branding and operations.
Unlike architecture + interiors studios or branding agencies, we’re not here just to add creativity or deliver a service.
We’re upstream of that. Engaging at partner level when vision is bottled, commercials are understood + decisions are made that shape everything to come.
“You couldn’t find a nicer, more creative group of people to work with.”
- GUSTAF PILEBJER, F&B DESIGN DIRECTOR, EMEA, MARRIOTT
IT STARTS WITH YOU
We begin with your “Defining Objective”. A clear, shared agreement for success that brings together:
Commercial Ambition
Concept and Brand
Scale, Complexity and Risk Appetite
Founder Roles and Responsibilities
Execution and Operations
We help you define this early: often before money is raised, often before assets are purchased, and always before creative and technical teams are engaged.
This ensures every subsequent decision is made with confidence, a clear rationale and in total alignment with your vision.
PROVEN PROCESS + TAILORED SERVICES
We combine partner-level engagement and accountability with agency deliverables, offering a unique solution to clients like you across hospitality.
Whether we’re retained to assist with securing an asset, to support you with fundraising, or combining our commercial and creative expertise to develop a site and launch a brand, we tailor a solution that perfectly suits your needs.
“Canvas were incredible partners throughout the time we worked together. Their experience and inside knowledge was invaluable.”
