Project: JAM Hotel, Brussels.

Standout: Gritty nonchalance pervades this hotel-hostel hybrid, starting with the old motorbike parts built into the reception desk and continuing with the plywood bunks.

Project: Coo, Singapore.

Standout: There’s plenty of urban edge at a millennial-targeted hostel where guests bunk down in stacked compartments outfitted with metal ladders and privacy curtains.
