TwoThreeHotel “是一个7层的酒店项目，位于泰国曼谷中央商务区的黄金地段之一的Sukhumvit 23路。这是对旧公寓楼的翻新，业主要求把它变成一个新的城市酒店。翻新后的建筑包括68间客房，一个餐厅和一个游泳池。

‘TwoThreeHotel’ is a 7-storey hotel project on Sukhumvit 23 road, one of the prime areas in central business district of Bangkok, Thailand. This is the refurbishment of the old apartment building in which the owner required to turn it into a new city hotel. The refreshed building consists of 68 guest rooms, a restaurant and a swimming pool.

现有公寓的每个房间的主要问题是它的尺寸小，而且窗户的尺寸不够。为了改善这些不舒适的空间，我们决定将现有的露台整合为每个房间的一部分，并扩大其窗户的尺寸。结果，这些提供了更大、更明亮和更实用的房间，通过这种设计，外部露台已经变成了室内空间，成为一个放松的日间床角。

The major problem of each room in the existing apartment was its small dimension, and its insufficient size of window. To improve those uncomfortable spaces, we decide to integrate the existing terrace to be a part of each room, as well as expand the size of its window. As a result, these provide larger, brighter and more functional rooms and, by this design, the exterior terrace has been turned into the indoor space acting as a relaxing daybed corner.

然而，另一个限制是，这些新的日光床角落的刷新墙面直接面对邻居的土地，必须建造成实心墙。这是因为由于曼谷的建筑后退规定，每个前露台和邻近土地之间的空间太近，无法直接提供开口。换句话说，窗户只允许在其轮廓墙上。因此，为了反映我们对自然光的设计目标，凹陷的窗户被设计用来为日间床的角落和内部空间产生更多的间接光线。

However, the other limitation is that those new daybed corners’ refreshed walls facing directly the neighbours’ lands have to be constructed as solid walls. This is because the spaces between each former terrace and the adjacent lands are too close to directly provide openings due to the building setback regulation in Bangkok. In other words, windows are allowed merely on their profile walls. Therefore, to reflect our design aim of natural light, recessed windows are designed to generate more indirect light for the daybed corners and interior spaces.

作为这些室内日间床的设计方案，我们决定将它们反映在外立面上，用木质纹理来表达它们是建筑的主要语言，而整体设计包括简单的几何形式，主要材料是抹灰和白色油漆墙。因此，这种干净的白墙加上一些木质材料的点缀，可以使这个酒店更加温馨，让客人更加舒适。

As the design solutions with those interior daybeds, we have decided to reflect them to the exterior façade and express them to be the main language of the building with wooden texture, while the overall design comprises of simple geometry forms and the main material is plastered and white painted wall. Consequently, this clean white wall with the touch of some wooden material could make this hotel cozier and more comfortable to the guests.

在景观设计方面，由于土地面积的限制，没有空间种植大树，所以选择了垂直和盆栽花园作为景观设计的解决方案，以确定产生更多的绿色的户外氛围。同时，这个设计的特点是受到房屋后院的小花园的启发，各种形状的水磨石花盆被普遍排列，创造出具有友好环境的小角落，客人可以通过这种景观设计感到像在自己家里一样。

In the aspect of landscape design, because of the constraint of the land’s area, where no space is left to plant large trees, the vertical and potted garden is selected to be the solution of the landscape design, determining to generate the outdoor atmosphere more greenery.Simultaneously, the character of this design is inspired by small gardens on the houses’ backyards, where various shapes of terrazzo pots are generally arranged to create small corners with friendly environment and the guests could feel at their home by this landscaping.
