Navakitel Design Hotel

A hotel in southern Thailand redeveloped from an apartment building cladded with solid steel plate and expanded metal to blur the solidity
기존 콘크리트 건물에 얇은 강판과 철망 마감으로 증축한 태국 남부 나바키텔 디자인 호텔

Junsekino Architect and Design | 준세키노 아키텍트 앤 디자인

Navakitel Design Hotel is located in the central part of Nakhon Si Thammarat, one of the most ancient cities in the southern part of Thailand. The site is surrounded by shops and residences. This hotel itself consists of 68 accommodation units, a lobby on the ground floor and an open terrace on the third floor for organized hotel activities.

나바키텔 디자인 호텔은 태국 남부 시암만의 유서 깊은 도시 나콘시탐마랏 중심부에 있다. 번화한 상점가와 주거지 틈에 자리 잡은 호텔은 68개 객실, 1층 로비, 4층 개방형 테라스로 구성된다.

Project: Navakitel Design Hotel / Location: Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand / Architect: Junsekino Architect and Design / Interior: Junsekino Interior Design / Electrical Engineer: Udomdee Engineering / Owner: Suchada Navakitpaitoon / Use: Hotel / Area: 3,900m2 / Completion: 2019 / Photograph: Spaceshift Studio

The initiation of the project was to transform an apartment block with a reinforced concrete structure. In order to change the function of the apartments into a hotel, the architect decided to maintain the existing building’s floor plan, which had already been built up to the second floor. From the construction drawing, the room types are categorized according to the room size, whereby each floor has similar types of room.

The architect chose a thin and sharp steel plate for this seven-story concrete building, to ‘melt’ the thickness of the building. By using solid steel plate and expanded metal to increase dimensions, and blur the solidity of the building, it also allows natural light to penetrate inside.

아파트 설계로 진행하던 프로젝트를 호텔로 변경하면서 우선 강화 콘크리트 구조의 건물을 손봐야 했는데, 건축가는 이미 2층까지 지어 올린 건물 평면을 그대로 사용하기로 했다. 그리곤 각 층에 비슷한 유형의 객실이 모이도록 객실을 크기별로 나누었다.

얇고 예리한 강판을 사용하니 7층짜리 콘크리트 건물의 묵직한 볼륨감이 어느 정도 완화되었다. 강판과 철망으로 외부 공간을 넓혀 실내에 충분한 햇빛을 들였다.
나바키텔 호텔에서는 소홀히 하기 쉬운 건물 시스템을 정교하게 설계했다. 객실, 로비, 복도의 조명 장치나 기타 설비를 처리하는 과정에서 전기 기술자와 논의한 끝에 천장으로 가리기보다 그대로 노출했고, 이는 건물의 특색이 되었다.
철공, 목공, 석공 등 지역 장인의 전문 기술을 활용한 이유는 호텔 설계에 나콘시탐마랏의 고유한 특징을 반영하기 위해서였다. 그 덕분에 나바키텔 호텔 전반에서 현지 환경에 특화된 그들의 노하우를 엿볼 수 있다.

In this project, the architect also designed an elaborate building system, which is often neglected. The architect consulted with electrical engineers to integrate the building system with the lighting design and other equipment within the interior space, including guest rooms, lobby and corridor. Instead of concealing the services with a gypsum ceiling, they are exposed, and the result of this collaboration between architect and engineer became part of building’s aesthetic.

Using the expertise of local craftsmanship (including ironworkers, carpenters and masons) their specific know-how was applied to the architecture and interior design in order to reflect the unique characteristics of Nakhon Si Thammarat through the hotel design.
