About Torifito Kanazawa Hotel

Et nyt hotelkoncept, der understøtter gæsters forskellige formål. Det er et hotel med 161 gæsteværelser og et stort fællesbad nær Kanazawa Station, en delt club lounge til forretningsrejsende samt hands-on oplevelser til pigeture. Dette er et "designet ophold"-hotel med et sted at slappe af ved dagens afslutning på rejsen. Der er tre hovedformål. Det første er skiftet fra kvantitet til kvalitet. Det andet er fusionen af en klar målgruppestruktur og lokal kultur. Det tredje er en fornuftig hotelforretning, der løser udfordrende rum gennem design.

Production Technology
A "hotel that supports the closing of the day" with a spacious large communal bath and a club lounge that can be used during the day and night while suppressing the "basics of accommodation specialization"
Aimed at. As a result of analyzing local resources instead of creating interiors with items unique to tourist destinations, we focused our guest targets on business person girls trips.
We have realized a hotel where you can stay at a reasonable price by organizing the way of spending the night at your destination, organizing the deformed site with an architectural plan, and coordinating with the local culture!
Design Challenge
(1) Because it is a deformed site, we created two entrances that allow people to pass through in consideration of the flow of people, and featured the alley-like space as an "art corridor" by displaying it on the wall. (2) The point that "the height detail of the lounge sofa and the art curtain that can instantly hide the buffet table" was set up so that the breakfast venue could be converted into a business lounge. (3) The guest rooms are designed with a "bench sofa by the window" that takes advantage of the view from the window, and the relaxing scene is integrated with the space.
Research
Under the theme of "Chemical reaction by adding a community", we have designed various accommodations and housing facilities according to the times, environment and circumstances. With the design of cooperative houses as the main axis, we have built up architecture and space creation with an eye on the target, based on our achievements that capture the ideas of real users.
Inspiration
Before the spread of the new coronavirus infection, there was a chronic shortage of accommodation.The hotels that were forested with the aim of the Tokyo Olympics are more about quantity than quality, and even in Kanazawa, where historical culture remains strong, it seems that there were many designs similar to traditional craft.
Instead, I felt the limits of a lifestyle hotel that relied on interior design, and started by raising the question of who it was for.
Project Duration
Design: April 2019-October 2019.
Construction: November 2019-March 2021.
Operation Flow
We've built a lot of stylish hotels on the boom, but there's no hotel that makes us want to go again ... I felt the limits of a lifestyle hotel that relied on interior design, and I thought there was a discrepancy between the value it provided and the design. As a result of detailed marketing analysis, we found a way to differentiate ourselves in the hotel life of common areas. We have designed and organized a clear program as a hotel that supports the closing of guests for various purposes during the day.
