The hotel provides a simple geometric form that reaches only 100ft tall, to prevent being a monumental building since the city of Flagstaff does not have any large scale buildings. The form of the hotel is bent to represent movement to highlight the landscape that is in between the school and the hotel. While the school is laid out in scattered from, the hotel envelopes the entire spatial program in to one mass. Although, the kitchen is shared between the restaurant and the schools dining facility, the location of the restaurant is between the two buildings. While the mass may be simple, the “The movement” represented by the roof will provide a shelter in the restaurant and will meander through the hotel creating voided spaces by carving out spaces such as the lobby and terraces. The roof also provide structure for the hotel while being a sculptural element in spaces such as the atrium, where the roof projects from the ground level to the fifth level to create a roof in the suite guest room. Overall the hotel is design to be simple, yet provide a place to be remembered, where guest can experience the expression of movement provided by the spaces.
