About the project (provided by the applicant)
The design philosophy is centred around enriching the guest experience by embracing the Bohemian lifestyle. Elevated from the ground, the building offers an open space for diverse activities. Utilizing a 3m x 3m grid layout allows for flexible assembly of spaces to accommodate various needs, such as guest rooms, toilets, and corridors, facilitating phased construction and future expansions. Inspired by Bohemian ethos, the design prioritizes freedom and adaptability, fostering community interaction through inner social spaces. The irregular site shape mirrors life's diversity, shaping the building's evolution. Each floor features open corridors with green terraces, integrating nature and enhancing user experience. With a total area of 850 sqm spread across four floors, initially comprising six buildings, the cluster allows for gradual expansion to accommodate more guests. The structure's system enables cumulative expansion with an interlocking mechanism.
