Hotel Zurichberg - narrative of the transient.

-architecture  is a narrative of the transient nature of the guests and their stays.
-focus is on the circulation-  a circular ramp continues throughout the centre of the building from the moment of entrance and connects directly to the rooms.
-the centre is a place of movement- is a non- occupiable space.
-large scale elements in the architecture is the backdrop against which the stories of the guests are acted out---  movable furniture record the actions of the guests; the folding shutters that forms a continuity with the facade when shut also creates a screen depicting, or hiding the events inside the hotel (and thus casting a mysterious air on the stories).



-context. (more to come).
