The Blackwell Inn & Conference Center

Revenue Impact

PILLOVV introduced custom art pillows into the Blackwell's guest rooms and retail, bringing artist storytelling into the guest experience while creating a new revenue stream for the hotel.

The program now generates approximately $14,000 in annual retail revenue.

Project Overview

PILLOVV worked with The Blackwell Inn & Conference Center to bring local art into the rooms through custom textiles. The project included embroidered pillows, custom bed runners, and scarlet shams. The stories of the two artists are now part of the in-room experience and over $3,000 was earned by participating artists.

    I could not have booked a nicer hotel. Central location to The Ohio State University. Staff support was above the top! We will stay here again. Had to buy the throw pillow has a great design of the university.

    This hotel and staff are amazing. The view of Ohio Stadium. AKA the shoe is breathtaking. I’m a huge Ohio State fan. The rooms are super cool with the Ohio State pillows and sheets.
