Co-founder and chief creative officer of Salt Hotels Kevin O'Shea explains how they transformed an abandoned brick manufacturing facility into a luxury hotel and event space in this video produced by Dezeen Studio.

Named Hutton Brickyards, the hotel is located in Kingston, New York, along the Hudson River.

The resort also functions as a large-scale event space and was named winner of the Event Spaces category at the AHEAD Americas Awards 2021.

The AHEAD Global awards represent the finale of the programme of regional events in 2020 and 2021, in which the winners are pitted against each other to determine the best recently opened hotels worldwide.
