Graduate Hotels give life to physical spaces that uniquely connect with guests on a visceral level. Each hotel is its own immersive experience of inspired texture and contrast that captures the college experience in full. This book will follow suit: a 256-page tome beautifully designed in the style of a college yearbook that tells the deep and nuanced stories of the college towns Graduate lives in. A book as easily at home in the Art and Architecture section of a bookshelf as in the Travel section. A book useful for design inspiration and mood boards as it is for wanderlust and adventure planning. Every Graduate property celebrates great design, art, architecture, and a youthful, playful optimism that reflects the spirit of each community from Oxford, Mississippi to Oxford, UK, and every point in between. This is a book for the culturally-curious traveller who delights in rekindling the spirit of their college days. A great appreciation for design, art, architecture, the stories behind things, and the people that make cities unique. The Graduate Book is a celebration of this spirit as much for art-lovers as it is for alums.
