* 베이징, 목재로 마감한 작은 호텔-[ Penda ] XinXian Inn Hotel

베이징의 작은 호텔은 회색벽돌과 목재를 이용해 현대적 외관을 완성하였다. 회색벽돌과 천연나무, 그리고 유리로 둘러싸인 후통 지역에서 이 호텔은 단연코 눈에 띄는 아이콘이 되었다. 호텔 안으로 들어서면 벽돌과 나무가 내부로 자연스럽게 흘러 들어가 녹색으로 자연색을 더한 벽과 만난다.

 

Gray Bricks And Wood, Work Together To Create A Contemporary Facade For This Small Hotel In Beijing

Architecture and design firm Penda, have transformed a former traditional guesthouse that stretched over 2 floors, with small rooms and limited daylight, into the XinXian Inn Hotel, a small, modern low-budget hotel located in a Hutong area in the center of Beijing, China.

The facade of the hotel is a visible icon on the street and it mirrors the surrounding Hutong area with its gray bricks, natural wood and glass.

Upon entering the hotel, the bricks and wood flow through to the interior and there’s a small green wall to add a touch of natural color.

When talking about the design of the main floor, the designers explain “Walking into the hotel, the hallway seems like an alley wending through a neighborhood of little houses. We placed a lot of plants along the way, so the atmosphere between inside and outside fades and the hotel creates a little Hutong by itself.”

Inside this ‘little house’ is an area with a table and stools that looks out onto street and the entrance of the hotel.

Stairs surrounded by wood lead to the upper floor of the hotel, while a skylight and hidden lighting make sure the stairs are bright and well lit.
