We simulate wind patterns and solar incidence early to shape the building form, ensuring that natural light and panoramic views are maximized without compromising guest privacy or energy efficiency. Our approach to hospitality architecture rejects standard hotel typologies. Instead, we view a hotel or resort as an extension of its specific location. At the Hilton Kathmandu, we analyzed the local tradition of prayer flags, translating their ethereal nature into vertical dichroic glass fins. These elements perform a functional role by managing solar gain while creating a shifting color identity throughout the day. For projects like the Amar Villa in Udaipur, our process is dictated by site topography and existing rock formations. We utilize algorithmic form-finding to ensure the building cascades down the slope rather than sitting atop it. This maintains the natural landscape and creates distinct, unobstructed views from every room. We manage the entire lifecycle through Building Information Modeling (BIM) at an LOD 350 level. This allows us to resolve structural challenges, such as large cantilevers and non-standard facades, long before construction begins. Whether it is integrating a net-zero solar farm into a resort masterplan or optimizing core-to-shell efficiency for a high-traffic urban hotel, our focus remains on creating spaces where guests feel the architecture is a participant in their journey. ## About Studio Symbiosis We are Amit and Britta, the founders of Studio Symbiosis. We design structures that act as a connection between technology, environment, and human experience. Our work focuses on performance to build structures that integrate with their landscape.
