- Production Technology
- The Softscape design not only strives to cultivate a lush atmosphere within the project's diverse spaces but also entails the meticulous selection of various plant species tailored to specific functions and areas. For instance, palm trees are thoughtfully incorporated to enhance green connectivity between different levels for the way they can grow and flourish even in relatively confined spaces. Additionally, a deliberate selection of plant varieties that thrive in areas with high groundwater levels ensures easy, long term maintenance.
- Design Challenge
- One of the challenger Ito Keeping in mind the ambitions towards a sustainable design, the materials and construction methods implemented throughout the project were applied to minimise the disruption caused towards its surrounding context. Easily transported and maintained, the modular steel structure and prefabricated wooden panels were assembled on site in order to leave as little construction waste as possible, thus, maintaining harmony with its community.
- Project Duration
- The project started in 2021 and finished in October2023 in Bangkok, Thailand
- Inspiration
- Positioned alongside the Chao Phraya River, the hotel offers stunning views of the expansive and vibrant watercourse. The design takes cues from the historical riverfront setting of the site and the traditional residential communities in Bangkok, where homes were strategically located near rivers and canals and daily life revolved around boat travel. The architectural style of these dwellings often incorporates expansive openings, allowing residents to bask in the beauty of the golden hours when sunlight delicately caresses the water's surface, creating a shimmering spectacle with subtle reflections. Drawing inspiration from the intricate patterns found in these historical residential structures, the architects integrated similar motifs into the hotel's architectural design, echoing the charming flower pots commonly seen handing in front of traditional riverside homes. Such attributes help shape the hotel's landscape architecture where various elements including hardscape materials are devised to form unique pattern, collectively contributing to the hotel's distinct identity. The design aims to evoke a sense of tranquility, aligning with the hotel's purpose as a haven of rest and leisure. It ensures a seamless and aesthetically pleasing integration with the functional areas across the various sections of the hotel.
