Concept

Providing natural elements to hotel buildings is a concept that will be emphasized. The inner court area inside the building, is designed to break the circulation of the hotel to twist around the entire building area. This is intended to provide a different space experience. The park is one of the natural elements that will allow hotel visitors to feel the tropical atmosphere while enjoying other hotel facilities. Meanwhile, the interior concept raised is natural elements such as plants and wood and natural stone texture. The interior concept of a building with a biophilic theme is applied to the building in the hope that it can provide a comfortable natural atmosphere and improve the well-being of hotel visitors. In the design of this hotel, there are three explorations of mass composition. The first is the mass of the building following the landform provided at the Bawen Terminal. The second, the mass of the building, is enlarged by adding five floors from point 0, and the last maximize the openings and sunlight by providing an inner court in the middle of the building mass.
