Tailored Bed Skirt
Tubohotel is, as its name implies, a hotel where the rooms are located inside a concrete pipe of only 2. 44 meters in diameter and 3. 50 long enough to enable inside a double bed and a small bedside. The hotel is located on the outskirts of Tepoztlan, Mexico, allowing you to enjoy the panoramic views of the Sierra de Tepozteco. The order of the tubes is random and conforms to the topography. The project, conducted by T3arc Workshop for Art and Architecture, is based on a similar case in Austria, Daspark hotel, designed by architect Andreas Strauss in 2006, who planned their rooms based on concrete pipes. In total, it took three months to build and only needed a crane, blacksmiths and carpenters who made the interiors. Each bed is built on a structure of MDF and the tubes are open at both ends, only separated from the weather from a mosquito net and curtains for privacy. This allows full ventilation of the interior, since most of the day the site remains shaded. After finding the right terrain, they had to allow the tubes are integrated into the landscape dominated by mountains, the building was very fast: in three months and a budget (just $ 120,000, about 83,900 euros), this tourist region Mexico's hotel had a sustainable and, above all, a very original design to accommodate the tourists visiting the area. "Architecture does not always depend on the elements we know and can be made with whatever is at hand", say project leaders. The 20 hotel rooms that make up the modules are divided into three pyramid to harness the ground as possible, 500 square meters in the foothills of the mountain surrounded by native plants. Each tube has an approximate area of ??nine square meters, while the stairs to enter the upper room occupied six square meters. "We believe that building Tubohotel allows users and the people of Tepoztlan open new building systems accessible to all," say the architects. . . .
