Illumina hotel view draft

The future hotel view?


An interesting picture was spotted on a staff member's Twitter earlier today - an early draft of the "Illumina" hotel view design! You can tell it is an early draft due to the template having valentine themed quests and rooms on it (Illumina has been under development for months it seems) yet it is March! Anyway, here is the image of the "Illumina" (draft) hotel view design:

As we can see, Sulake seem determined to keep the theme of quests and community challenges on the hotel view as opposed to having all quests, furniture, updates etc. placed on the general website. It's a big change compared to a few years ago when they decided to increase the amount of information revealed on homepage - but this changeover (again) could have easily been predicted due to the www.habbo.se webiste only having basic information on the webpages (for anyone that doesn't know, www.habbo.com will eventually get the www.habbo.se webpage layout, but it's still being developed).


Another interesting feature about this hotel view layout is the "Habbo of the week" speech bubble placed near the bottom. Could this be chosen by pure chance (similar to the system on www.habbo.com/community where it places 'Random Habbos') or might it be some kind of new competition/feature for the future? Who knows.

I think the hotel view looks quite good to be honest. I was originally disliking how bad the quests looked on the hotel view, but those up there seem a bit "cleaner" :P. I'm actually also very interested in the "Habbo of the week" thing and curious over how it would work. Anyway, I actually am quite fond of this one - the current we have is a bit.. meh, but this one just catches my eye aha.

Views?

Thanks for posting this it looks really interesting I do love the new layout and I think it makes the site seem a lot more modern. Habbo of the week also seems interesting and looking forward to seeing what that's all about!

Yeah, that's it, change the remaining things from old Habbo. I seriously preferred the usual hotel view, people will be spending more time in rooms than looking at this, what is the point?! :(

Well its not really a hotel view anymore, is it? :P I do like it though, It has a nice design! :)

True that, there's no image of the hotel anymore aha :P. Could almost be labelled "secondary homepage" if more stuff keeps getting added to it aha x .

its nice and modern, but its also.... just not right?

Ugly. I hate this new design. I want an actual hotel view :( Prefer to just go automatically to my homeroom!

@Red, I agree with the bit about automatically going to homeroom :( - I also loved it when there was an actual button on the sidebar that would take you to your homeroom whenever you wanted ;///

Looks very interesting, not too sure if I like it though :S

I kind of like it.
It makes me think with all the sort of 'widgets' on their is habbo moving to an all client base?

It seems much more better then the static version of the hotel what we had before.

What I think would be nice is that you could have arrows at the bottom of view and change different views to like hotel or quests.

Also I kind of like the idea on being able to personalise the view with sort of 'widgets / apps' kind of thing where like you could have a widget with the latest habbo news / tweets.

Habbo is changing too much & too quickly. I miss the old old habbo days. I like the design of this, but it's not a hotel view now really...

Well, it's not necessarily a hotel view anymore then.. is it? Thanks for posting it though.

Not keen on that:/

Don't like it.

Well, I'm not sure what I think of the whole design. I'm glad Habbo's moving forward though! :P

I think it's crap. Why can't we just use the old hotel views? They look nice and plain. Unlike this, fussy and complicated.

Old as in the one we had previously or old old as the one where it was different for each hotel? :P

I can see what they are trying to do and it's a nice idea and I'm sure they are still working on it and improving it. That's the best thing about Habbo moving forward and now using social media, you can easily give them your suggestions and views on the stuff that they are working on and they will listen and even reply to some of the tweets.

Yeah they won't do that view or regional views no more as it's not scalable. They will want the same thing across all hotels mostly.

i really like them!

once you get past the nostalgia anyway.

It like it but tbh its really annoying having to click the button "go to your homeroom" to enter your homeroom.. theres not really much point in home rooms anymore

it's okay, but it's not really a hotel view anymore :P

What hotel was that? I always thought that was a small international habbo?

I believe it was for Habbo.sg/Habbo.my/Habbo.Ph

Not entirely sure though :P

Yeah, I looked at some image URLs for the old hotel views - and they all end in the country domain code (if that's a thing) which belonged to that hotel view. e.g. fi = Finland. I checked that one and it shows "sg" = Singapore, so I assume it is :P

Looks brilliant :D

I like it, the bottom bar looks nice :)
