Ideation Design Hits Home Run with Sheraton Mesa Hotel at Wrigleyville West Project

PHOENIX - April 23, 2015 - PRLog -- PHOENIX, Ariz. – April 23 , 2015 – The Arizona-based resort development firm Power Hotel

Group, working with Starwood Hotels, selected Phoenix-based Ideation Design Group (IDG) to

design the Valley’s newest Sheraton project. The four-story 160,000+ square foot hotel is

nestled between the new Chicago Cubs’ spring training facility and Riverview Park in Mesa,

Arizona, near Rio Salado Parkway and Dobson Road. The project broke ground last spring and

is putting on its finishing touches this month, preparing to open just 13 months after breaking

ground.

The IDG design team spearheaded the interior architecture and design for the hotel’s lobby, 180

guest rooms (including 7 VIP rooms and a presidential suite), 30,000 square foot conference

center and two onsite full-service restaurants. IDG Foodservice worked with the team to design

the conference center and restaurants’ kitchen areas. The two full-service restaurants that grace

the property are Stats Sports Grill which has upscale-casual sports bar theme and Legends, an

elegant steakhouse.

“We began concept designs last March,” said Jennifer Milmont, Senior Interior Designer. “Our

vision was to create a space with a modern sophisticated look and feel that reflects Arizona’s

natural elegance.”

IDG accomplished their design vision using a warm desert color palette while avoiding a kitschy

southwestern vibe. The lobby boasts custom wood paneling, indigenous stone on the two-sided

fireplace and rich textures throughout the many seating areas. Stats Sports Grill has brick walls

throughout to compliment Wrigley Stadium in Chicago. Custom edison bulb light fixtures

surround the bar to create a warm ambiance for sports fans of all types. Wood slat ceiling

features, deep slate blue colors, one-of-a-kind wallcovering and round booths with custom

privacy screens all lend themselves to making Legends steakhouse a memorable experience.

The Hotel will also include a resort style pool area, fitness center, an on-site salon and full-

service Starbucks Cafe.

"It's really a great location, five minutes from everywhere, servicing the quad-cities: Mesa,

Phoenix, Tempe and Scottsdale," said Ideation Design Group Principal, Carl Schaffer. "This is

probably one of the fastest large hotel projects that have ever been built in Arizona. Mesa has

been unbelievably accommodating and a wonderful partner in this experience."

The Sheraton Mesa Hotel at Wrigleyville West opened for business April 15 of 2015.
