A hospitality design precedent by Atelier d’More blending traditional roof eaves with a contemporary glazed facade and bold red metal entry portal.
- What we like about this project
- The stark red metal entrance canopy acts as a heavy sculptural threshold juxtaposed against wide transparent bedroom glazing.

- Geometry
- Low single-story horizontal composition featuring a traditional tiled roofline contrasted with a modern red metal entryway and expansive floor-to-ceiling glass panes.
- Facade system
- Curtain wall glass with custom red metal structural entry hood and solid red pivot/hinged panels.
- Structural guess
- Load-bearing traditional masonry supporting timber roof framing with inserted steel-and-glass infill.
- Spatial scale
- Intimate human-scaled guesthouse facade, approximately one single-story height.
- Lighting
- Bright ambient daylight casting sharp shadows under the traditional eaves and highlighting the gloss finish of the red metal canopy.
- Atmosphere
- Serene and grounded, combining traditional architectural weight with crisp modern interventions.
- Environmental context
- Courtyard setting with red gravel ground cover and traditional roof eaves framing the upper boundary.
- Spatial experience
- Approaching from the gravel and concrete courtyard, the glazed facade reveals continuous interior bedroom spaces flanking a central red-accented portal.
- Composition rhythm
- Symmetrical central red entry portal dividing two large symmetrical glazed window bays under a continuous traditional eave.
