hotel trends and standards
• Embracing a minimalistic approach - guests prefer smaller, streamlined hotel rooms while valuing more shared communal space such as lobbies, restaurants, and coffee shops. • Bringing the outside in - natural elements are not only calming and enjoyable for guests, but also provide a proven return on investment. • Guest rooms focus on key uses - a sleeping zone that also permits television viewing, a working area that supports laptop use, a full bathroom, and a dressing area with storage space for folded and hanging clothes.

• The most crucial considerations in a new build are space requirements and people flow. • A common error is underestimating the space required for the plant room and mechanical equipment. • The way people interact in hydrothermal areas differs greatly from the way they would interact in other public spaces. • The intense heat of the thermal treatments means that space must be allocated for cooling off. • The customer journey through the spa should also be logical and simple to follow.
Island-style layout
Assembly-style layout
Island-style layout : This layout is very open and promotes communication and supervision, while leaving plenty of open floor space for easy cleaning. Zone-style layout : Communication and supervision are not difficult in this layout because the center of the space is completely open. Assembly-style layout : This layout may work better for establishments with a limited menu that serve large quantities of the same food.

Iceland, the land of fire and ice, is a destination in need of a unique space that will melt away with the surrounding landscape. The boutique hotel will serve as an extension of the neighboring experience by greeting visitors with
lush greenery, exposing them to fascinating skies, and engulfing all with waters of desirable
temperatures. The design will focus on the juxtaposition between the comforting interior environment and the exterior elements exposed throughout. Imitating
the opposing forces of the Eurasian and the North American tectonic plates, the space evoke a
concrete,
neutral colors,
and wood while contrasted with the use of basalt rock created by the cooling lava from the native volcanoes. Kastaรฐ will be designed to synthesize two diverging forces that transcends into a unified experience.

levels 3-8 • Initial blocking diagram called for 2 king suites which were later changed to 4 • Massage room was removed to include larger housekeeping and more room for guest rooms • Since public restrooms are not necessary on levels 3-8, an ice and vending space was added
level 2
ground level • Hydrothermal spa was kept in same location but expanded to accommodate for separate lockers and showers • Registration, concierge, valet, and lobby were moved to the first floor for easier communication with hotel guests • BOH remained the same since no views were needed to be experience and parking would be nearby

• Restaurant, bar, and lounge where moved to the second floor to allow for an open layout without disrupting traffic flow • Valet and concierge were consequently moved to first floor since landscape did not allow for access • Restrooms where moved to the other end for ease of use and wayfinding
