The five-story building is created with a diversity of
spaces and is strategically designed to optimize natural
light during the day and be activated at night with special
events. Planning the space with multifunctional purposes
during the day and night creates opportunities to add
vitality and interest. Film, as a form of new media art,
is a profound means of human communication. No
matter the genre: action, comedy or drama, films can
bring pleasure to a very broad audience. The multi level
cinema within the hostel provides a universally enjoyed
experience to its visitors. Adding facilities like a café
restaurant within the hostel benefits both locals and
travelers; it encourages interaction between the two
parties even more. The hostel becomes a community of
its own through its occupants.

HOUSE
Marcel Breuer’s Stillman House I inspired the domestic influences in the space. The
interior is where the possibilities reside. Space has infinite forms, but it’s boundaries that
make space usable. Interstitial space enforces the interaction between other spaces
like a palette cleanser between courses. The challenge is to deconstruct a simple
bauhaus diagram and rebuild it into something that fascinates the user and leaves a
unique impression. The key is to finder order in chaos.
