Visual record

Supplied hotel photography

A circular threshold frames a layered hotel arrival. Deep stone tones, warm metallic light and garden-facing dining settings connect a formal public interior with quieter experiences.

Planning the experience

Axial views and framed transitions organise the selected arrival and dining spaces. The gallery traces public scale, gathering settings and the garden edge.

Material & light

Dark stone, patterned floors, warm timber and suspended lighting build depth through contrast.
