AIRPORT LOUNGE

Concept Statement

FOR THIS PROJECT, MY GROUP MATES AND I CREATE AN AIRPORT LOUNGE FOR DISTRESSED TRAVELERS IN TOKYO, JAPAN.

• THE INTENT OF THE DESIGN IS TO CREATE A USABLE AND FUNCTIONAL SPACE FOR DISTRESSED TRAVELERS TO UNWIND AFTER A STRESSFUL DAY.

• THE COLORS FEATURED IN THE SPACE ARE TRADITIONAL JAPANESE COLORS, SUCH AS PINK, YELLOW, AND GREEN.

• BRINGING IN CULTURE IS AN IMPORTANT ASPECT OF PEACE, BY HAVING TRADITIONAL JAPANESE ARCHITECTURE AND NATURE ASPECTS THROUGHOUT THE SPACE. THIS WILL ALLOW THE TRAVELERS TO FEEL MORE RELAXED.

• PEACE IS JUST UNDER 900 SQUARE FEET THAT IS AN OPEN CONCEPT DESIGN WITH A RECEPTION DESK, LOUNGE AREA, AND PRIVATE ROOMS.

• THE MAIN STATEMENT FEATURE IS A KOI POND TO BRING IN THE SOUND OF FLOWING WATER TO ADD A WHITE SOUND IN THE BACKGROUND TO HELP RELAX THE TRAVELERS.
