To make green architecture more competitive and encourage architecture firms to aggressively come up with futuristic and innovative designs, many organization call for versatile competitions. In one such instance, Aliah Projects organized a completion for a Green World Cup Hotel for 2014, and declared Hiperstudio + Arkiz as the winner. The concept model of the hotel avidly enunciates sustainability, innovation and luxury. For more details, read after the break.
The main thrust of the structure is to once again restore harmony between man and his environment. Through its concept, the hotel intrinsically wants to divert people’s attention of how they have become detached with nature due to urbanization and industrialization and how it is once again time to look up at nature as a companion that will rapproach the quality of life otherwise on the verge of distortion.
Comfort is always taken care of while working on luxury projects and innovation too is integrated in one form or another, but this hotel goes beyond all this to give people a transcending experience. As a result, we see a linear plaza belvedere in the design, arranged along the arrival axis. It coordinates access to the hotel and also the convention center.
The structure has been able to accommodate itself in the natural topography with its placement done longitudinally on a higher ground, merging it into the natural landscape of the surroundings. Its open corridors embrace a central leafy patio and not only does it serve to connect rooms, but also emphasis the existence of vegetation throughout. In all aspects the structure speaks of resource savings and also demonstrates strategies of sustainability and comfort.
