THE DESIGN CONCEPT FOCUSES ON CREATING A HOTEL THAT BLENDS HISTORICAL CHARM WITH MODERNITY, WHILE CONSIDERING THE HOT DESERT CLIMATE OF THE CITY.

Technické informace

To achieve balance between the large hotel openings and the impact of sunlight and temperatures, we relied on using multiple terraces with varying gradients. These terraces are filled with greenery that helps purify indoor air and provide protection from harsh sunlight. Additionally, we utilized expansive roofs transformed into green roofs, harmonizing the building perfectly with the surrounding nature.

This approach not only enhances aesthetic connection with the local context but also effectively integrates sustainable practices.
