Urban Hotel
Located on a compact urban site, this project is defined by a carefully composed façade that balances rhythm, depth, and context. Strong vertical elements express the arrangement of the internal spaces and the building’s structural rhythm, creating a clear and ordered architectural composition. A darker central volume, clad in a contrasting material, introduces depth and visual interest, while the softened curved corner enhances the pedestrian experience and allows the building to integrate more fluidly with the surrounding streetscape. The result is a contemporary design that responds sensitively to its urban setting while establishing a distinctive architectural identity.
