end. What a relief.
Of course, the issues related to the global eco-
nomic mess still hound us … but recent business
indicators offer a tiny sliver of hope that the travel industry
will experience by Q4, if not growth, at least a stabilization
from the freefall of recent months.
My own sour mood brightened last month when I trav-
eled to Las Vegas for the second HotelWorld Expo & Con-
ference. In that city of boundless ambition and can-do opti-
mism, not even declining occupancies and bankrupt hotel
developments could totally quash attendees’ spirits. The new
M Resort celebrated its grand opening and Steve Wynn’s
lavish Encore was basking in the glow of its glittering debut.
And, as a fairly frequent traveler to Sin City , I’ve never
experienced such great service at all levels of hospitality, from

check-in to housekeeping to dining.
Our second Hospitality & Design Awards Dinner,
held at the Mandalay Bay resort, was a festive and boister-
ous celebration of excellence in hotel design and opera-
tions. At the event, I dined with representatives from
Gensler, HBA and ABA Design Studio, whose firms were
all nominated for design awards.
While these companies face the same challenges as
everyone else in this industry, they continue to doggedly
source new business by being nimble, flexible, confident
and aggressive. This is no time to retrench and wait out the
storm, says ABA’s Todd-Avery Lenahan. His firm is per-
sistent in advising developers to not halt construction and
renovation work because that’s a plan that will set one’s
business behind the curve when the economy does turn
around. It’s also a great time to take advantage of bargains
in supplier and materials costs, he suggests.
So, get motivated and get moving. To stoke your
inspiration, check out this year’s design award winners, starting on page 10. And, if you neglected to
submit a project, don’t miss out on next year’s contest. Keep an eye out for our Call for Entries in the
