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.
