3 Amazing Historic Stained Glass Looks for Hotels In Colorado Springs

For hotels here in the Denver area, deciding the right stained glass is key for design success. This is extra-true for historic hotels, where retaining a clear antique vibe is critical. You want windows that reflect the authenticity of your theme to continue drawing in visitors who come to you for just that! We have quite a bit of experience in this type of stained glass. So, we have gathered some of our most popular vintage styles of stained glass windows for hotels and even homes here in Denver to use as inspiration.

Historic Stained Glass Ideas For Denver Hotels

1.  Mackintosh Stained Glass: These incredibly iconic designs from artists Charles Rennie Mackintosh include the Mackintosh Rose design also referred to as the Glasgow Rose. It is very recognizable and is featured prominently in copious works of art worldwide. However, Mackintosh moved seamlessly from design style to design style, so any stained glass work mirroring his style of design will fit well in your Denver hotel or hospitality venue. 

2. Greene & Greene Stained Glass: A lot of architecture here in Colorado was made in the early 1900s–right around the time, the Greene and Greene business was flourishing. This is why the Greene and Greene or Craftsman style stained glass will fit just right into historic hotels here in Denver. The designs of these two inspired brothers never went out of style anyway and can be seen in homes and businesses all over Colorado. A unique native beauty appearance–sometimes geometric, sometimes with flowing lines– is a hallmark to these types of stained glass windows. But there is always incredible attention to detail and color. 

3. Prairie Style Stained Glass: No mid-century modern “retro” hotel would look authentic without Prairie-style stained glass. Straight from the mind of one of the world’s most influential designers, Frank Lloyd Wright, this type of stained glass includes architectural and straight lines with geometric shapes. Many Prairie Style stained-glass windows use clear glass with small pops of color. However, if you are looking to add privacy to your Denver hotel we are happy to add striking textured glass or more opaque colors.
