460 King St West
CONCEPT STATEMENT
Our inspiration for our proposed hotel design, located at 460 King St West, comes for the diversity of culture that Toronto brings. We hope to re-create Kind St West by integrating its exciting nightlife into the districts daily business routine, through a means of transparency. This blend of work with play will showcase the sites historic context while accentuating the sites youthfulness.
Our design will bring forth vibrancy and elegance, creating bright social spaces that will become a popper destination for locals and visitors alike. We will achieve this by using a variety of materials both local and innovative while considering climate and light patterns.
