Mup-Arq: Viura Hotel, Spain
Check out this amazing hotel. It is located right next the church and the square overlooking the rest of the town. Taking advantage of the landscape this project uses various structural strategies and materials. Carved into the rocky hillside, the lower level is embedded into the natural stone. The exposed foundation can be found within the restaurant, cafeteria, and even in the gym. The remainder of the hotel are located in the three floors above. AH-MAZING! Let is know what you think.
