About Norm Air Кунакханә

Норм Эйр шәхси кунакханәсе, салкынлык һәм сәнгать төшенчәсенә нигезләнеп, люкс салкын тәҗрибә белән тәэмин итү өчен эшләнгән. Отель күккә, урманнарга, күлләргә күз салса, һава сүзе күрсәткәнчә, күктә йөзү визуаль тәҗрибәсе тәкъдим итә. Уңайсыз һава торышы өчен эшләнгән кунаклар кунакханәдә күргәзмәдәге сәнгатьтән, хәтта яңгырлы яки салкын көннәрдә дә рәхәтләнеп салкын тәҗрибә белән ләззәтләнә ала. Рәссамнар һәм дизайнерлар ясаган җиһазлар һәм кораллар сезгә гаҗәеп тәҗрибә белән ләззәтләнергә мөмкинлек бирә.

Unique Properties
The hotel is designed around the theme of chill and art. In this age of information overload, this is a place where you can feel the luxury of being surrounded by nature, doing nothing, and being fulfilled just by being in this place. This space is not just a place to stay. To achieve this, we not only prepared some contents in the space, but also thought about creating a comfortable space to experience them.

Production Technology
In order not to influence the surroundings, the exterior is all black to blend in with the natural environment. No wood is used for the building's finishes, and the plan is to enjoy the forest by incorporating natural trees as borrowed scenery, with a clear contrast between the interior and exterior. In order to fully enjoy the view of Lake Kawaguchi, a roofed balcony is provided to maximize the feeling of floating in the air.
Design Challenge
Because of the laws in this area to preserve the natural environment, it was very difficult to harmonize the design of the building with the natural surroundings. By using a mainly black exterior to blend in with the natural environment, the hotel became difficult to see from a distance, and visitors to the hotel were surprised by the sudden appearance of a very modern building as they walked through the forest, feeling uneasy because they could not locate the hotel.
Research
In designing this hotel, we had many discussions with the project members.Through these discussions, we came to share the design concepts of sensibility, nostalgia, and minimalism. We tried to create a space that is elegant, not eccentric or new, but rather a nostalgic and peaceful space where people can feel at ease and enjoy their childhood, and a sense of unity using as few colors and materials as possible.
Inspiration
Faced with the shift to a new lifestyle due to the Corona disaster, it has become difficult to go out, and not only has the demand for lodging and restaurants declined, but young artists have equally lost a place to express themselves. We would like to see private hotels, where guests are limited, become places for expression. We aimed to provide a place to connect people who are stressed because of limited access to the outside world with artists who have lost a place to express themselves.
Project Duration
Project starts in September 2020
Construction starts in October 2021
Open in July 2022
Operation Flow
The private hotel norm. air, based on the concept of chill and art, was designed to provide a luxurious chill experience. Overlooking the sky, forests, and lakes, the hotel offers a visual experience of floating in the sky, just as the word air implies. Designed for inclement weather, guests can enjoy the art on display at the hotel and the luxury chill experience even on rainy or cold days. Furniture and tools created by artists and designers allow you to enjoy an extraordinary experience.
