Archway

The design study pays homage to the historical architectural feature of the 'Arch' . The Arch defines prominence with form, but also provides a gateway for wayfinding.

Form and wayfinding were the main factors that inspired the design. The envelope wraps around an elliptical pool, creating a sheltered courtyard.

Wall, flooring, roofing and landscape blend together to provide mixed interventions throughout the site.

These interventions were created to host dozens of people at the once, providing a luxurious hotel experience. The vast space also creates the variance of hosting events & parties.

A contrast between smooth and rough grooved concrete occupy the materials pallet, along with carbon metal.
