A complete renovation project of ”Laforet Lake Yamanaka”.
This was a large-scale renovation project that involved rebranding as a Marriott Hotel and converting guest rooms to hot spring baths.
The hotel is located in a natural setting with a view of Mt Fuji and Lake Yamanaka, we aimed to create a hotel where guests can stay comfortably for a long period of time and feel as if they were in the nature.
The lobby is a quiet landscape like a reflection of Mt Fuji. The walls are covered with Japanese paper and the counter is made of split wood to give it a warm texture. The guest room corridor is reminiscent of a mountain path with sunlight filtering through the trees, creating a peaceful atmosphere as you walk to your guest room.
The entire structure was created with the story of the guest's stay in mind, creating a hotel where one can feel the flow of time.
