Stone:
- presence as a whole
- stone in section + plan
- hollowed out
Geometry:
- 3 sizes of the same stone
- jigsaw
- no walls touch
- practically complete
- sketches called ‘block sketches’
Humidity:
- heat
- climax points
- congregation in/out of water
- geometric continuous system
- invites beathers to a promenade
Continuity:
- of spaces
- internal movement
- large stones that block visuals into rooms: visually
- web of spaces connected by an axis of movement
Porous:
- Ability to explore
- Stone built of stone
- Wide openings for windows
- no doors
Water:
- stone gathers water through pores
- different temps of water
- place of gather
- movement between water
- sets at one level
Nature:
- cave
- water sets at one levevl
- not multi storey
- only view outside world through nature
Level:
- sink building like a stone so it would remain natural
Linear:
- rigid formal models
- uniform stone
Layer:
- stone layers
- water, light, stone layered
- layers of nature
- composite masonry
Light:
- through holes within roof
- artificial + natural
- light as warmth
- create atmosphere
Ambience:
- Light reflection upon water
- Light from roof + water
- Attracts the senses
- Play on light, darkness, shadows
Integrity:
- building as a whole made of stone
- building in mountain, out of the mountain, inside the mountain
- stone that emerged from ground
Site:
- interrelationship with mountain
- older than existing neighbour
Plan:
Section: Built upwards to avoid being a barrier between hotel view and mountain.

Arch1201 Project 3 2nd Draft
The back of the building site was further developed by adding a long rectangular translucent material to create an integration between the different levels of spaces. The reason for translucent is to keep that private space while still bringing in sufficient natural lighting as possible.
