Called the ‘House of Peace’, this project by Singapore-based WOW Architects is composed of a textured concrete. The the overall design was inspired by geological processes that shape rock formations in nature. The concept manifests itself into two ‘mounds’ or buildings with flowing gardens that grow out from the windows of the building.

The orientation of the buildings was planned so that sunlight enters the interior courtyard in the center, providing a warm and inviting space for hotel guests to mingle. Flowing gardens spill out of the building’s windows and this layout gives residents access to views of city, sea and harbor.

Guests can have a rather unique experience while they look out through their setback windows and verdant frame, and feel like they are staying in a very bright and well-lit cave with all the modern conveniences.
