Hotel Designer Awards 2026 — Sustainable Room Finalist
Living Canopy explores a new vision of hospitality where architecture, landscape and climate-responsive design merge into an immersive guest experience. Developed for the Hotel Designer Awards 2026, the project reimagines the hotel room as a living interface between humans, nature and the surrounding environment.
Living Canopy explores a hospitality experience where architecture and landscape become inseparable. The room is conceived as a living environment, integrating natural materials, vegetation, daylight, and sensory comfort to create a deeper connection between guests and nature.
The room is structured around four interconnected zones: service, living, sleeping, and terrace. The layout prioritizes fluid circulation, visual connection with nature, and a seamless transition between interior and exterior spaces.
Immersive guest experience — a room designed as a living interface between architecture and nature.
Integrated living space — organic furniture, warm materials, and functional flexibility.
Wellness sanctuary — natural textures and soft lighting create a calming hospitality atmosphere.
Outdoor extension — a seamless transition between interior comfort and the surrounding landscape.
