A small hotel with 12 guest rooms was built in an industrial area as a conceptual extension of a meeting place for classic cars. A robust and site-typical structure made of semi-precast concrete elements and profiled glass with transparent thermal insulation is complemented by fine wooden fixtures, each of which defines the „special places“. Each guest room is given its own little „parlor“ with a prefabricated wooden box made of exposed „CLT“ which extends the conventional concept of the hotel room from a bedroom with a table and armchair to a real place to stay with the evening sun, quality of stay, and view. The folding of these cross-laminated timber elements also creates an individually assigned outdoor space for each room.
