Embark on a journey into the heart of architectural wonder at our newly unveiled hotel, where spirituality meets contemporary design. In this video, we unravel the story behind the creation of a unique sanctuary, inspired by the Buddhist temple principles and the enchantment of Borobudur.
Architectural Fusion: Blending Tradition with Modernity!
Join us as we explore the fascinating challenge of combining ancient temple philosophies with modern design principles. The architectural concept revolves around a specific geometrical composition, using circles and stupas to depict the silhouette of Mount Mahameru, all while maintaining symmetry across every element. Witness the seamless fusion of tradition and innovation that makes this hotel a true architectural masterpiece.
Craftsmanship and Construction Techniques: Reviving Old Concepts with a Modern Twist!
Discover the meticulous construction techniques employed to bring this vision to life. The top floor, designed as a mezzanine, pays homage to ancient concepts. Asphalt shingles, teak wood, prime stone, and phomi are artfully combined to create a harmonious blend of materials. Modified clamps and careful craftsmanship ensure the realization of the architect's vision.
Symbolism in Design: Buddha Reliefs and Shallow Pools!
Uncover the symbolic richness in the design, where Buddha reliefs adorn both the façade and interior. An elongated shallow pool and a striking Buddha relief on the back wall contribute to the spiritual ambiance. Each element is thoughtfully placed, creating an atmosphere of serenity and reflection.
Elevated Experiences: Rooftop Bars, Meeting Rooms, and Temple Villas!
Ascend to the upper floors to discover meeting rooms, multifunctional spaces, and a rooftop bar that provides breathtaking views of sunrise and sunset. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of the semi-circular swimming pool surrounding half of the restaurant and seven temple-shaped villas. The layout, reminiscent of Borobudur Temple, forms a symbolic circle of harmony.
