As a premier destination resort, the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa has refreshed their restaurants and lobby spaces to enhance their guests' experience. Inspired by the Texas Hill Country and the resort's scenic and natural surroundings, the new design, created by the design firm Seifert Murphy, reflects and embraces its regional surroundings throughout the new furnishings.

The JW Marriott Hill Country Resort & Spa sits alongside part of one of the most beautiful natural phenomena in the world, the Texas Hill Country. Drawing from the JW brand aesthetic, the property's redesigned spaces are a modern interpretation of the resort's indigenous surroundings. The Texas Hill Country is world renowned for its natural beauty and the Blanco River is credited as its wellspring. Located just 40 miles northwest of the resort, the Blanco River serves as the centric inspiration for the casually elegant design. Building on the saturated color palette of the river and the surrounding banks and limestone cliffs, the scheme of the resort's design is a welcoming sanctuary, aiding the guest in a full immersion of the landscape surrounding the resort. Modern design takes on the rush of water, and the trademark cliffs of the Blanco River present themselves throughout the redesigned areas. Vertical directives juxtaposed with organic movement are a nod to the architectural elements of the river itself.

Each of the hotel's restaurants, 18 Oaks, Cibolo Moon, High Velocity along with the lobby bar, Crooked Branch, have been refreshed to reflect a current look and feel that embraces the nature of the Texas Hill Country. New carpet in both 18 Oaks and Cibolo Moon and rugs in Crooked Branch and the main lobby area are inspired by the movement of the Blanco River as the rushing of the water and as a serene viewpoint.

Two new tables, each seven-feet long, in High Velocity, the hotel's sports bar, were designed and built by a local Texas manufacturer, The Wright Edge in Red Oak, Texas. As an homage to the official Texas state tree, both large community tables were made from one pecan tree that was split vertically down its center. The majority of the new furniture is custom made to naturally occupy their spaces. Leather sofas and chairs are stamped and incorporate a custom-made modern western design.

The uses of different woods, copper, limestone, leather and other natural materials in the furniture combine to create a warmth that feels like home and beneath guests' feet they will see the inspiration of the Texas rivers woven throughout each space. Coffee tables in the upper lobby are made from limestone, which is indigenous to the area. Also in the upper lobby, laser cut hair on hide with a mixture of a sage green and steel blue color accent are incorporated into the soft seating. Wheat, cognac, sage, lapis, carbon, and camel are woven throughout the interior as art or furnishing materials and represent the Hill Country landscape. The overall design elevates the hill country aesthetic into a more modern and neoteric interpretation of the traditional motifs.
