A boutique hotel exterior precedent that balances modern metallic corrugated facade elements and large glass expanses with historic contextual materials and preserved mature landscape features.
- What we like about this project
- The dramatic scale disparity between the delicate metallic corrugation and the massive trunk of the preserved century-old tree.

- Geometry
- An asymmetrical composition featuring a multi-story courtyard elevation with protruding metallic bays, juxtaposed against a dark slate-clad wall on the left and a reflective pool at the base.
- Facade system
- Curtain wall glazing combined with corrugated bronze-toned metal panel cladding and solid volumetric reveals.
- Structural guess
- Steel and concrete composite frame with non-loadbearing exterior metal cladding systems.
- Spatial scale
- Human-scaled entry courtyard framing a three-story hotel elevation dominated by a towering mature tree.
- Lighting
- Late afternoon sun casting warm directional light across the metallic facade elements and deep shadows beneath the mature tree canopy.
- Atmosphere
- Serene and grounded, blending historic tree canopy presence with precise contemporary metallic tectonic detailing.
- Environmental context
- Urban boutique hotel courtyard integrating historic preservation context with large preserved mature trees and water feature.
- Spatial experience
- Approaching across the courtyard, the massive canopy of an ancient tree frames the architectural volumes while the reflective water pool grounds the open-air entry sequence.
- Composition rhythm
- Vertical rhythm established by protruding metallic bays countering the horizontal continuity of ribbon glazing and the organic form of the large tree.
