This impressive "dynamic with the flow" and iconic landmark hotel allows urban view porosities to embrace both city and ocean. Spiral and the sloping urban roof garden of the hotel's ballroom promotes urban pedestrians' access and various activities. Almost 300m long building is cut into segments to bring down the overwhelming street scale and avoid "the wall effect". Single loaded corridor and S shape building is designed to allow maximum building envelope for all rooms having ocean view, which also satisfies the challenging 50m building height limit.
