04 Apr Hotel Design: Sleeping Boxes
The Tverskaya Hotel Design : Slepping Box
Arch Group has taken its brilliant idea in the Sleepbox and filled it into an old building to create a hotel design. This modular box is a minimalist sleeping chamber. The Sleepbox got its wings when it was implemented into an airport for tired passengers. Those that wanted somewhere to sleep during layovers or waiting for flights could find serenity in the minimalist boxes.
Today, the same team of architects have created an impressive looking hotel filled with Sleepboxes. Each Sleepbox contains a bed, a lamp and sockets to charge phones. The upper floors of the hotel are filled with regular rooms and Sleepboxes to bed two people and the bottom floors are for individuals. This hotel is a smart solution for areas with large populations.
Arch Group developed the concept for the Sleepboxin 2009 and the first capsule opened at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport two years later, The Tverskaya Hotel Slepping Box.
The building also contains a handful of regular hotel rooms, which were added to the top floor in spaces where the ceiling heights were too low for a Sleepbox.
Sleepbox Hotel has 4 floors. On 1st floor you can find reception, information zone, lobby, individual lockers for visitors and management. Snow-white seamless reception desk with sleepboxish design is made of Corian.
The desk can be seen from the street though glass doors. A visitor finds himself in a futuristic space.
