Description
This project is to transform the old buildings into a boutique hotel and it's very close to the Dazu Rock Carvings World Cultural Heritage.
The original function of this project was the town government. During the initial construction period, due to inconvenient transportation and underdeveloped construction technology, a treatment method with less disturbance to the mountain was adopted, so it was built layer by layer according to the terrain.
In 2021, with the need of overall repair and improvement of Dazu Rock Carvings Scenic Area, the building was rebuilt and designed as a boutique hotel to receive tourists and meditators on a small scale.
The renovation design follows the principle of "not competing with objects". Architecture does not compete with nature for land, and new construction does not compete with cultural heritage for uniqueness. The selection of materials and construction methods that are most in line with local regional traditions in architecture strives to inherit Dazu's cultural traditions through the reorganization of functions and indoor spaces.
