Reside appoints new CEO to ‘propel' Wyndham collab

This story was originally published on Hotel Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Hotel Dive newsletter. Reside CEO Lee Curtis will transition to the residential hospitality management company's board of directors, and global real estate and investment management executive Gavin Morgan will succeed him at the company's helm effective immediately, according to a Monday release. Morgan will take over as Reside CEO after most recently serving as a managing director at Canadian private equity firm Westbridge Capital, which acquired Reside in 2017. Morgan also previously held the title of chief operating officer for JLL's Hong Kong and China offices. Morgan's 'global perspective and strategic acumen' will position Reside to grow its recent alliance with Wyndham Hotel & Resorts, Westbridge CEO Mike Meekins said in a statement. In his new role, Morgan will 'propel' Reside forward, Meekins said, through the company's 10-year development relationship with Wyndham, which it inked in October under Curtis's lead. Through the partnership, Reside and Wyndham are expanding their upscale extended stay offerings through the apartment-style hotel brand Reside, a Wyndham Residence. The brand already has several hotels open, including in Washington, D.C., and the partners are focused on growth in the top 50 U.S. metropolitan areas, Curtis previously told Hotel Dive. 'I am honored to join Reside at such an exciting time,' Morgan said in a statement. 'The company has an exceptional team and a strong foundation, and I look forward to building upon Curtis's legacy of excellence while exploring new opportunities for growth and innovation.' Morgan will focus on expanding Reside's footprint, enhancing client experiences and 'further strengthening its position in the corporate housing industry,' the company detailed in the release. In December, Reside appointed Walter 'J.R.' Dembiec Jr. to head the development partnership with Wyndham, specifically. In line with the chief executive change, Curtis will become Reside's board director as well as take on the role of entrepreneur-in-residence at Westbridge Capital, providing strategic insights and guidance across the firm's investment portfolio with a particular focus on the hospitality sector, per the release.

Bright and airy living rooms are overrated. Cozy and dramatic is where it's at.

2 Roman shades with a chevron pattern and gold flecks provide privacy from the street while letting in sunlight and lending an airy expanse. 'The clients did not want to completely color-drench the room for fear it would be too dark,' Vallance says.

The secondhand coffee table is from Ramble Market in Waltham. 4 Vallance reimagined the fireplace, swapping the uninspired redbrick surround with a modern marble one. The remnant slab from CounterEdge in Waltham also replaced the hearth's terracotta tiles. The jogged detail of the mantel she designed ties to the lines of the light fixture. 5 The settee, inherited from the owner's grandmother, sports two new fabrics: a gray performance velvet for the seating side and Belgian linen by Boston-based textile designer Ellisha Alexina on the reverse. The meandering floral vine pattern makes it look pretty from the adjacent rooms. 6 Throw pillows break up the solids with pattern and color. The West Elm pillows on the sofa pull rusty tones from the rug and the lumbar pillow made from a playful Serena Dugan Studio linen juxtaposes the traditional settee.
