LOD朗奥建筑

Based in Beijing, LOD朗奥建筑 defines apartment hotel and hospitality environments through high-contrast volumetric cuts, seamless glass cornering, and rigorous structural alignments between overhead vaults and floor patterns. This work serves as a precise reference when detailing tight-radius corner envelopes, integrating custom graphic seating alcoves within reception lounges, or extending continuous masonry textures into sunken interior spaces.

Courtyard view of hotel building with dark exterior stair and reflective pool by LOD朗奥建筑.

An open-air hotel courtyard precedent featuring cantilevered balconies, a bold dark stair element, and a central reflecting pool that organizes circulation.

What we like about this project
The stark dark geometry of the exterior staircase creates a striking focal point against the pale courtyard walls.
