Projects:
Mirrored hotel by Shaun Killa
Rock-shaped hotel by Mario Cucinella
Stepped cliffside hotel by Chris van Duijn (OMA)
Geo: Neom, SA
NEOM continues to impress with its space-age architecture projects. This is truly a playground for creativity. I envy the architects working on projects in this region. Today, we will discuss three boutique hotels located in a canyon amidst a Martian landscape.
There are no plants or water—just sand, rocks, and a starry sky—but what a photogenic place it is! In reality, hiking in such mountains might only give me one reason for discomfort: running out of supplies. Otherwise, I want to constantly take photos and be alone with my thoughts. Such a getaway is great for restoring the nervous system.
The Arabs decided to create their own version of the Jordanian city of Petra, but in a modern style. Each hotel is unique and perfectly integrated into its surroundings, with mirrored cubes and rugged forms resembling alien spaceships. Captain Shepard approves!
Since the advent of Stable Diffusion, many, including myself, have been testing generations on volumetric models, particularly in mountain locations. Why, you may ask? The answer is simple: mountains are visually captivating and building in such locations is challenging in reality, making them look like movie sets. I hope all concepts will be realized, and we can soon explore these locations in person.
