A project photo showcasing a multi-story hotel tower with undulating curved glass and a stepped horizontal podium—useful precedent for mixed-use hospitality design in urban contexts.
- What we like about this project
- The upper tower overhangs a heavily articulated podium roof garden and angled louver system below.

- podium-tower
- urban-context
- Geometry
- Curvilinear multi-story tower sitting atop a stepped, fragmented podium volume with horizontal articulation.
- Facade system
- Unitized curved glass curtain wall on the upper tower; horizontal metal louvers and solid panels on the lower podium.
- Structural guess
- Steel or concrete core with column-supported floor plates and cantilevered tower masses.
- Spatial scale
- Mid-rise urban development scale relative to human pedestrians and street furniture.
- Lighting
- Late afternoon daylight catching the curved glass panels and casting soft shadows across the plaza hardscape.
- Atmosphere
- Open and active public realm setting balanced by sleek vertical tower volumes.
- Environmental context
- Urban pedestrian plaza flanked by contemporary commercial or mixed-use blocks with young street trees.
- Spatial experience
- Approaching from the pedestrian path, the tower's undulating glass facade contrasts with the solid, layered horizontal bands of the podium.
- Composition rhythm
- Repeating horizontal floor slab bands on the tower offset by jagged roofline elements and linear podium louvers.
