Entry Description

A nine-story building with 14 rooms was planned on a site of only 83.47m2, and a rigid frame structure with braces was used to allow for easy changes in plan and facade.
By deliberately allocating space to outdoor space and taking into consideration the surrounding landscape, each guest room has a balcony facing a different direction, allowing guests to enjoy the view. At the same time, it creates a unique facade that looks like a randomly hollowed-out vertical building.
The interior of the guest room is characterized by a seamless space with curved curved walls.
