Idea was to create 4-star Hotel with modern design in city center that is surrounded by old, historical, brick architecture with very strong industrial accents. We wanted to show our building as most as we can and same time don't want to create something that would look like cut off from its surroundings.
Idea of nWD - (nie)Widać [polish: (in)Visible] against its meaning is not for hide building but thanks to form of moved, functional slices, application of high-reflective (photochromatic) glass that reflects surroundings by day and dark-finished elevation that disappear in night - it makes that by disturbing perception of observer it draws his attention even more.
Building designed in frame construction on pillars and beams. The lowest floor is enerance zone with parking lot, technical and exploatation rooms.
Seond and third floor are commercial focused zones. Fourth and fifth are residential floors. The highest one is for high-standard apartments. Interior is designed as connection of minimalism and industrial, raw finishes like concerte, wood, steel and glass.
