What is
a stop?

01
Cinematic Short Film
60 to 90 seconds. An atmospheric portrait of the property — spatial rhythm, architectural character, sensory detail. Produced in 4K, graded within the inhaüs visual system.
02
Social Edits
2 to 3 short-form vertical edits derived from the primary film. Designed for Reels distribution. Each isolates a strong visual sequence without repeating the full narrative.
03
Editorial Stills
12 to 20 high-resolution photographs. Architectural composition, spatial atmosphere, material detail. Delivered in formats optimized for web, social, and editorial placement.
04
WÜRLD TOUR Stop Poster
An official stop announcement asset within the inhaüs visual system. The lead asset of each property's content arc — released individually as the opening of the stop.
05
Structured Release Sequence
A defined 10 to 12 post release arc across inhaüs channels. Announcement, atmosphere, full film, supporting stills, and a closing recap — each stop unfolds as a chapter.
06
Licensed Usage Rights
All produced assets are licensed for your owned marketing channels — website, social, newsletters, and digital materials. Non-exclusive. inhaüs retains authorship.

The
WÜRLD TOUR.

The WÜRLD TOUR is the operating framework of inhaüs. A structured, seasonal series documenting a limited number of exceptional hotels across cities and regions. Each selected property becomes a stop — a chapter in a larger, ongoing story.

Hotels are not presented as clients. They are presented as destinations within a curated global movement. Participation is intentionally limited and cannot be purchased on demand.

I
Montréal — Phase I
The foundational launch edition. A concentrated selection of exceptional Montréal properties. Access-based collaboration for the inaugural stops — the proof of concept for the tour format.
II
Regional Expansion — Phase II
Once the Montréal edition is complete and publicly released, the tour expands outward. A focused regional cluster — one city, one edition, defined stops. Commissioned participation.
III
International — Phase III
The tour extends to flagship hospitality destinations across Europe and beyond. Properties seek inclusion. Editions become authoritative documents of the world's most distinguished hotels.

"Hotels are not being sold a service. They are being invited into something curated."

What we
look for.

Not every property qualifies for the WÜRLD TOUR. Selection is based on a specific set of criteria — aesthetic, atmospheric, and operational. If a property does not meet these clearly, it is not approached.

01
Architectural Identity
The property must have a distinctive architectural character — historic, designed by a notable firm, or visually striking in a way that is specific to the building and its context. Generic construction does not qualify.
02
Interior Coherence
Interiors must be cohesive across rooms and common spaces. Strong materials, considered lighting, a clear design direction. The property should feel intentional — not assembled from separate aesthetic decisions.
03
Cinematic Light
Natural light is essential. The property must photograph well — spatial depth, directional light, layered textures. A visually flat environment, regardless of its star rating, cannot carry a WÜRLD TOUR stop.
04
Atmosphere & Sense of Place
The property must have spatial richness and a genuine sense of place — something that cannot be replicated elsewhere. Design hotels without atmosphere do not qualify. Atmosphere without design does not either.
05
Editorial Brand Positioning
The hotel must be known for design, lifestyle, or cultural identity — not only service or amenities. A coherent visual presence on Instagram and a history of editorial coverage are strong signals.
06
Operational Openness
The property must be able to grant structured access to key spaces, designate a point of contact, and coordinate filming windows without disrupting operations. Production is discreet and contained — one to two days on site.
