Discover of body: Ode to water
Architecture | Boutique hotel | Netherlands
Unique hospitality
Imagine gliding over the water in a boat, feeling the gentle mist on your skin. Slowly, a building comes in sight. You see it, yet it seems to be part of the surroundings.
It is a hotel where you can retreat and unwind, alone or with company. Swim in embedded pools and experience a unique sauna journey. You’ll never want to leave and will certainly return.
That is the Netherlands, that is the hospitality concept of B-too: “Discovery of Body: Ode to Water.”
Boutique hotel in the polder
The concept for this boutique hotel stems from the desire for a truly Dutch boutique hotel. What better location than a hotel in the Dutch polder landscape.
The concept allows for a flexible layout accommodating various functions. The building does not have a fixed purpose but adapts to the needs at hand. In the presented design, an extensive program includes a restaurant, bars, various pools, and a unique sauna experience.
B-group
Is it possible to turn this seemingly futuristic building into reality?
With the comprehensive approach of the B-group, of which B-too is a crucial part, the answer is undoubtedly yes. Within the B-group, we can handle engineering, realization, substructure, and timber construction. This collaboration results in a feasible plan.
