A proposal of a high-rise metropolitan scale hotel for Paramount Hotels and Resorts. It includes a full range program of hundreds of suites, restaurants, exhibition halls and leisure spaces, that reflect the brand's prestige and Hollywood's glamour.
It's all about that gigantic atrium with no respect to human scale.
It just keeps rising within a shield of replicating cubes, projecting selected scenes from Paramount's movies in an elusive loop of reflections, scenes, sounds, light and structural tensions. At the top a hanging theater leaves the dramatic climax open for interpretation.
