The bellboy's story revolves around the "Do Not Disturb" rings commonly seen in hotels. The bellboy plays a crucial role in the customer's hotel experience, from check-in to check-out. I focused on the communication between the bellboy and the customer, emphasizing their unique situation. I designed a transparent laser-cut ring reminiscent of the bellboy's attire to symbolize this connection. The ring's silhouette tapers from the thigh to a ribbon hanging from the neck, capturing the essence of the bellboy's look. The hotel environment inspired the choice of velvet fabric and colors.
