The Design

About Park Zoo Hotel

This is no doubt a hotel based on the animal theme. However, designers didn’t simply create a series of adorable and graceful animal-shaped installations in order to attract great attention in the intensely competitive market. Infusing the space with the deep love for animals, designers transformed the hotel into an art exhibition, where customers are able to observe and feel the real situation facing the endangered animals in the present moment.

Production Technology
Designers choose 3D printing technology to restore real animal models, a different animal kingdom has been built for consumers. The use of human society for the violation of animal rights and interests of the elements, such as biopharmaceuticals, Cat Shit coffee, to reflect the real relationship between human and animals, thus triggering people's thinking and exploration of animal protection.
Design Challenge
It is difficult to do animals welfare projects in commercial hotels. Designers have considered the topic of animal protection carefully. They need to consider whether consumers are willing to accept such information, whether they can make profits for hotels.
Research
Animals do not mean an eye-catching tool to replace the contours and shapes of certain aesthetic symbols in response to market demand. Many of the scenarios in this hotel design are that people do not have enough perspective to see the world. This desire to express is precisely what designers want to arouse the feeling of gentleness and waiting for life.
Inspiration
The number of endangered animals is increasing, designers hope that through a call for love and attention, this hotel will not only be an innovative theme hotel, but also have a public interest.
Project Duration
The project finished in December 2018 in Hangzhou, China.
Operation Flow
Through shocking animal models, it arouses consumers' thinking about life and attention to animal protection. Human beings influence the survival of animals. The status quo of animals reflects the human society at the same time. Through the design of hotels, consumers can reflect on their own behavior.
