Xiguo Hotel (iHotel) is a resort-style hotel.

It has an excellent location, adjacent to the 4A-level Mount Penjiashan Scenic Area. Meanwhile, there are numerous ho-tels of various sizes in the surrounding area, leading to fierce competition within the industry.

Using design to create value for business operations.

The first element is that the exterior design must have a strong memory point and generate its own traffic.

The second element is that the exterior design needs to re-flect the local culture of the hotel.

Penjia-shaped mountain island, the natural tidal sand bridge wonder formed by tidal waves, the sea, the dock, wooden boats, lighthouses...

Transforming art into daily life and the life of fishermen into art.

Elements such as waves, fishing boats, Mount Penjia, tides, and beaches are extracted, simplified, and polished to form in-dividual design elements. These elements are then arranged in a sequence to create a unique building skin for the hotel, which is given the colors of white waves and golden sand. The white lighthouse version of Xiguo Hotel for travelers watches over tourists coming from all directions.
