Tokyo Hotel Concept #2 - C Hotel
STATUS: The client is getting antsy, as we all do when we approach the culmination of our blood, sweat and tears. The concept has changed slightly. The new slogan is:
"OUT OF THE SEA SPRINGS LIFE"
Approaching the site, the building seems to spring forth from a wall of water. This wall of falling water surrounds a japanese garden influenced by the flow of ocean water along the Thermohaline, also known as the Ocean Conveyor Belt. The Thermohaline circulates water around the globe, making our ocean system a global one. The building's exoskeleton, made of triangulated steel beams, seems to twist upward like a school of fish rising from the depths. The "C" shaped building twists as it rises and thus participates in a passive solar design. The balconies seen on each floor are like bubbles rising in the center of the frenzy.
