Sea Cliff Hotel
Project Description
The project is located in Gouqi Island in Zhoushan Shengsi, known as the "Little Greece" in the east, the easternmost in habited island of the motherland, a treasure island away from the hustle and bustle of the city with a 4-hour ferry ride.The hotel is based on a natural and pristine cliff outside the round about road in the southwest of Gouqi Island,embraced by the bay, and the overall sea environment is rather introverted and peaceful. Here we were to create a themed resort with nearly 40 rooms, but the brutality and steepness of the base's own to pography, in contrast to the calm of the ocean, provided a tension of place and an opportunity and challenge to the design of the hotel.
