The brief was a brilliant space that looked like an industrial building "buried in the heart of a forest". The building was clearly divided into a bedroom area and a wide-open space for entertainment. The design specifications from the clients said that the building should surprise guests, entertain and be filled with various tricks stunts and illusions. Dutch art hotels such as the New York Hotel in Rotterdam and the Winston in Amsterdam were indicated as points of reference.



After preserving the industrial background, NEFA ARCHITECTS brought in “expensive” surfaces and materials for the interior trim.  The result is a balanced mix of rugged materials, cast-in-place concrete, rough floor boards, burnished-style features and surfaces made of oxidised copper, marble and Venetian cast glass. While for facing the pillars, the architects used Murano glass slabs since this clearly accentuates the pool space and the common area.
