Hotel Guest Room Concept By D.B. Kim
This is a project I assisted design and did the 3d rendering work for a few years ago with designer DB Kim. It's a project I always love looking at because of how simple and elegant DB's concept is, while simultaneously being extremely powerful. Generally the idea is a prefabricated shell which is installed into a typically dimensioned hotel room. The bed frame, bedside tables, a bench for sitting, and a shelf are all part of the shell. Each gracefully curving and peeling off of it. The shell also acts as a surface to mount typical hotel equipment such as lighting and a television. While openings in the shell may provide for dramatic back lighting opportunities. It's one design move which completely transforms the typical hotel guest room experience. While being modular enough in concept to be utilized anywhere. In it's function it somewhat reminds me of a more spatial and clearly more chic version of a capsule hotel in Japan. And in it's articulation of smoothness and sleekness as well as it's minimal white tone, of contemporary airport design. A very appropriate translation for travelers.
