원래 이 건물은 70년대 쉐어 아파트 블록이었는데, 지금은 88개의 수면용 포드가 있는 포드호텔로 탈바꿈되었고 새롭게 바와 간이 식당이 설계되었다.
아파트 건물이었을 때의 오래된 배관시스템에서 나온 구리파이프들이 재활용되어 맞춤 디자인으로 재탄생되었다. 특히 천장에 6각형의 거울과 조명이 설치되어 이 곳을 방문하는 손님들은 자연스럽게 천장을 올려다 보게 만들었다.
Vancouver-based firm Bricault Design have recently completed the newly opened Pangea Pod Hotel in Whistler, Canada.
Originally the building was a 1970s time-share apartment block, however Bricault’s renovation transformed the building into a pod hotel with 88 sleeping pods, and a new public bar and eatery.
Some of the original materials from when it was an apartment building were re-purposed, such as the copper pipes from the building’s old plumbing system, and they were used in custom design features throughout lounge and cafe areas. On the ceiling, hexagonal mirrors and lights have been installed and draw the eye upwards.
