Using parametric design and semi-automated production have allowed this team from IAO (Institute for Work Organisation) and LAVA to be completed in a timely fashion. Exploring the space between architecture and technology is the main theme behind the Future Hotel Showcase.

The room showcases the latest technologies wrapped in the interior space allowing for a personalizable and responsive space through the introduction of anti-jet-lag lights, an active comfort bed, a personal spa area, an intelligent mirror and a large media display window. The design is very interesting as it feels a bit like a claustrophobic cave with a lot of perks. The timber in the personal spa provides a breath of much needed warmth and softness.

The main material used for the surfaces and carved furniture is plasterboard –which I hope they eliminate in the real future- with a translucent membrane stretching across the ceiling creating a soft lighting affect that can be changes by the guest to suit their mood.
