PARKROYAL COLLECTION Kuala Lumpur
Hotel, Malaysia
We took a holistic biophilic approach, where the lush façade lends its greenery to create a unique garden experience that permeates the entire hotel. Guests arrive at a double volume lobby space flanked by a lush green backdrop, overlooked by a timber-clad treehouse. Cantilevered facade planters lift greenery directly to interior spaces.
The garden concept is extended into all public areas creating a continuity form outside to inside. Reception, dining and lounge space are enlivened by greenery which permeates all aspects of guest experience, creating an intimate connection with nature even though the hotel is in right the middle of KL city.
The architectural promenade culminates at the pool level which is realised as a verdant green oasis with large 6-7m trees screening the pool area. Planters and cabanas create nooks and crannies for guests to occupy and relax amongst nature. The roof terrace houses the pool and wellness facilities such as the gym & spa. Throughout the hotel, greenery complements the warm and natural finishes creating a resort-like ambience, in the heart of the city.
