Yuamu Hotel by Naoya Tochio

Home > Winners > #150530




DESIGN DETAILS
DESIGN NAME:
Yuamu

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Hotel

INSPIRATION:
With the spread of COVID-19 in 2019, the demand for banquet halls has disappeared. Therefore, the owner wondered if the banquet hall could be renovated as guest rooms. Taking advantage of the high ceilings, they decided on an original plan that could not be realized on any other guest room floor. Both the living room and bathroom were placed near the window so that they could look out on the river flowing in front of them, creating a new, unprecedented Japanese modern guest room.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The plan is to convert the banquet hall of a ryokan into guest rooms. The guest rooms have high ceilings and varying floor heights. The small tatami area and sofas were connected to create an unprecedented Japanese modern style. The design theme of the restaurant "ORIORI" was based on the hotel's name, "weaving" and "folding. The transparency of the folds was changed according to function to achieve a comfortable feel. It features a corridor and dining space designed to look like the outside.

OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
-

PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
The project began in August 2021 and was completed in January 2023. The inn reopened on February 15, 2023.

FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY:
Interior Space and Exhibition Design

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY:
The ceiling is higher than the ceiling height of a typical hotel room, so you can get a sense of openness. You can see the river even in the bathroom, which makes it more comfortable. The restaurant's concept, name, and space design match each other, giving a deep sense of the region.

SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES:
Gross floor area: 5106.27㎡(Renovated area 1044㎡) Number of rooms: 34 (Renovated rooms 5) Restaurant seating capacity: 120 seats (86 seats in the renovated section)

TAGS:
Interior, Inns, Renovation, Branding, Folding, Weaving

RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
In the design process, we proposed naming the hotel and restaurant together. By naming the hotel and restaurant after the area where the ryokan is located, we were able to create an originality that could only be found here, and by designing the interior in an integrated manner, we were able to combine the verbal and visual images to create an overall branding. We were able to create a different impression than before.

CHALLENGE:
All the furniture was also made to order to enhance the originality of the project. However, since architecture is made on site and furniture is made in a factory, the dimensions of the furniture were carefully adjusted. Such attention was paid to such details because of their simplicity.
