Hive Hotel Facade Remodel / Preposition Architecture
This is a facade remodel project commissioned by a new owner of an old hotel building. The old hotel was the largest hotel in Luo-dong when it was built in the 70's. Luo-dong is a town with a population of 70 thousand, located on the north east coast of Taiwan. It was historically a center for lumber business of the region and has been transformed to a tourism hub when the timber industry declined in the 80's. The original hotel was a successful hotel for businessman at time but has been unable to attract tourists when the tourism develops quickly in the town. The hotel had been dismal since then for decades. The mission of this project is giving the hotel a new identity so that the architecture can continue its life through the new era of the town history.
