Entry Description

A hideaway hotel nestled in lush greenery, in harmony with the natural landscape.
We sought to create a hotel where guests can “spend time as if they were at home” rather than being just a place to stay over. Taking advantage of the location, using a color scheme based on the landscape, and building with natural materials overall, the connection between inside and outside is emphasized, with light and wind gently passing through. Designed as a retreat that immerses guests in the land’s nature and vernacular culture, the hotel offers comfort and repose, like a second home.
