KC Grande Resort & Spa-Hillside / Foundry of Space

The architects gave a text description. Recent years have seen even greater expansions in the hotel and tourism-related
industries in the area as a result of Thailand's expanding tourist industry. This pattern has also been continuously followed
by Chang Island in the province of Trad, one of the most well-liked beach destinations for tourists from Europe.
KC Grande Resort & Spa has been open for business for a few years and is situated on Had Sai Kao (White Sand Beach),
the most stunning beach on the island. The planned extension requires an additional 79 keys with amenities including
pools, a restaurant, bars, and sunbathing decks in order to handle the anticipated increase in bookings.
KC Grande Resort & Spa New Extension is positioned at the intersection of an incline road that forms a triangle out of the
site and is less than 100 meters from the beach. This location presents two difficult challenges: how can the building fit on
a triangle-shaped site with a constant slope? And how can the visitors, who are a long way away, feel like they are a part
of the beachfront?
We maximize the internal space between the 5-meter-different levels of the front and back buildings by dividing the
building into two parts in two different levels in accordance with the existing topography. We also purposefully placed a
30m-long pool and a 3.5m-high artificial waterfall as a focal point in the middle of the space. All guestrooms on the first
floor of the lower and upper buildings have access to their own plunge pools, simulating the feeling of being close to the
ocean. Another benefit of placing the back building on top of the hill is that most bedrooms enjoy unobstructed views of
the sea because the lower building and other buildings in front are not in the way.

The architects gave a text description. There is a respite from the concrete boxes of office and apartment buildings as you
approach Hi Tech City and observe block after block of constructed FAR. You can see "The Avasa," a nine-story frame with
terraced terrace gardens.
The site's asymmetrical shape presented the biggest design problem. The area is wide near the road and gets smaller toward the
back. The structure follows the site and is shaped like the letter "A" on the plan.
Respect for the existing site was one of the design's objectives. As a result, the hotel's architecture adopts a highly site-specific
strategy to respond to its surroundings. Because there isn't much open space on the property or nearby, terraced terraces have
been designed to create a continuous green environment. The third level and the top floor are visibly joined by these patios. As a
result, the rooms are organized along the 'A''s two arms, and the terrace spaces on the connecting slab between the two arms
step back as one ascends to higher levels.
The most crucial diagrams in the design phase were those showing the building parts. The most crucial drawing that best
describes the structure is the last part. Three different banks of elevators are used to transfer people vertically across this tiered
portion. One pair travels between the ground floor and basement in the west wing. One set on the East wing travels between the
first and eleventh levels. All levels are serviced by the bank of lifts that are accessible from the main lobby.
The Hotel Tower appears to be emerging from the ground as it is moored to the peak plateau and situated extremely close to
the ocean. The Banquet Hall, on the other hand, is situated on a lower plateau, and the two structures are joined by a bridge.
As a procession moves from the approach on the main road alongside Gyeongpo Lake, passing through the entry court and
gate to the hotel entrance plaza that is distinguished by the local vegetation, a rich series of spaces is revealed.

The Gyeongpo Canal and the hotel are partially visible from the slowly ascending road to the hotel, which winds its way
through the pine forest and across the surrounding natural terrain. Landscape design ideas and the order of outdoor spaces
were created in cooperation.

With this hotel, Richard Meier says, "We hope to create something fresh and cutting-edge. The guiding concepts in our office
are based on time-tested, traditional design principals include the use of Natural Light, the Site, and the Context. Through
design, I want to discover the best of what is and what can be in my work. My goal is to produce meaningful, unique modern
architecture that is both rigorous and humanist, as well as being both beautiful and approachable. Both the individual and the
larger community are taken into consideration in this architecture.By enriching and altering the current site in a distinctive
way, our main objective for the Seamarq Hotel has been to generate a strong feeling of place.
Hubertus Pool / noa* network of architecture

The architects gave a text description. At a height of roughly 1350 meters, the Hotel Hubertus is situated in Valdaora, in the
Puster Valley, at the base of the well-known ski and hiking region Kronplatz. With 16 new suites, a new kitchen with restaurants
and "Stuben," an entrance space with lobby, reception, and wine cellar, as well as a fitness and leisure room with panoramic
terraces, the family-run enterprise was opulently improved and expanded. The new 25-meter pool emphasizes the core of this
extensive repair and rejuvenation project by serving as a bridge between the old and modern.

Noa* unifies "old and new" in a consistent way by constructing a facade from natural larch tree trunks that alternates regularly.
The new, cantilevering pool, which thrones between the ancient and new lodging wings, floating between heaven and earth, is
designed with a theatrical base thanks to the homogenous appearance that follows the area's natural topography.
The new pool, which toweringly sits between the two wings of lodging, like a floating boulder that has arrived at the location and
is now resting while overlooking the valley. The pool's concealed margins, preserved in anthracite-colored stone, eliminate the
space between the pool and the surrounding area, giving the appearance that the water is flowing into nothing and disappearing
between the pool and the surroundings. The pool, which is situated between heaven and earth in the breathtaking mountain
range of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage site, symbolically resembles a mountain lake. The new sky pool, which floats
like a natural rock over the new lodging wing, is the project's focal point. Having no discernible borders, dimensions of 5 m in
width, 25 m in length, and 1.30 m in depth, and a height of 17 m
PRY1 Retreat Hotel / Research Studio Panin

At the foot of the Khao Yai National Park, recognized for its abundant natural resources, PRY1 is situated in Prachinburi. The
location of PRY1 is perfect for its function as a retreat hotel because it overlooks the mountains that are a part of Khao Yai
National Park. The name PRY1, which translates to "jungle," alludes to the interaction between this object and both the
immediate built environment and the surrounding natural environment. The hotel is made to seem as its most basic geometrical
shape and architectural language, acting as a background for both the activities of its visitors and the always changing natural
surroundings.
The building is divided into three floors, with the ground floor housing the public areas. In addition to serving as a point of
entrance, the reception area and lobby transform into warm living areas for everyone. Additionally connected, the living and
dining areas surround the outside pool and serve as its backdrop. Activities flow uninterruptedly from one location to the next
without being constrained by the boundaries of their assigned spaces. There is a calm library there where visitors can retreat
with their literature and the view of the mountains in front of them.
The mountains, which are brought closer by broad, welcoming openings, are visible from every one of the hotel's 32 rooms. One
experiences being both inside and outside as the walls dividing the visitors and the mountains dematerialize. As soon as one
enters a hotel room, they become a part of both the quiet internal areas and the colorful external surroundings. Despite having
stark differences in appearance, the buildings and the mountain gradually meld and incorporate into one another. The design
featuring verandahs, porches, and walkways was inspired by the weather, which permits the visitors to spend time outside. As a
result, residents can spend time both inside and outside as well as in the spaces in between. Shadows for sleeping and living
It's not always true that native or traditional architecture has Thai roots, despite what PRY1 claimed to be the case. While the
spatial arrangements conform to specific needs, the careful details are created using both modern tools and materials.
Furthermore, if by "traditional" building one means in the way or styles of native Thais, then those "current" components are not
examples of traditional building. This distinguishes PRY1's viewpoint from the new vernacular or "back to the roots" movement
that is currently taking root in Thailand. There are advantages to each of these traits. An architecture that aspires to be local but
develops from various intelligences is one that is not decorated with traditional motifs but can instead be upheld by modern
possibilities. Consequently, the PRY1 architecture
Bellerive Resort / AVA Architects

The architects gave a text description. The Bellerive resort, a property of The Calico, is situated in Hoi An, 6.1 km from the
Assembly Hall of the Chaozhou Chinese Congregation, with 4 sides bordering on roads and the De Vong river to the east. The
resort is built on a land area of 8700 m2, and it is characterized by the tropical hot and humid climate of the ancient town of Hoi
An. Bellerive is divided into two distinct blocks from a bird's-eye perspective, featuring a six-story hotel block with a capacity of
178 furnished rooms and the opulent villa block with between two and three bedrooms and an isolated pool in each. Bellerive
provides contemporary architectural solutions while drawing inspiration from Hoi An's river legacy.
One of AVA's main guiding concepts when building a resort area is to evoke a sense of practical experience. To accomplish this,
every aspect of the resort experience—from the lobby, lounge, relaxing area, and infinity pool to the restaurant, conference
rooms, spa, and recreation area—is scientifically arranged on a single figure, ensuring ease of internal and external circulation
while ensuring general aesthetics for the construction.
The hotel complex is situated directly in the lane of most traffic. It is placed back to provide a perspective of the structure and
stretches horizontally across the land, giving Bellerive not just a grand aspect but also a view of the river from the public spaces
and hotel rooms. The upscale villa neighborhood with private pools is located south of Bellerive and is surrounded by calm and
tranquility. The infinity pool is located in the middle of the property and has a picturesque view of the De Vong riverfront.
Bellerive stands out for its design of interconnected gardens and plants, which not only creates green places that are
environmentally responsible but also ensures the resort's visual appeal.
