The Qinghaihu Lake View International Hotel is located in the Erlangjian Scenic area. It faces Qinghai Lake and has a very broad landscape view,with the architectural form of flying Hada and colorful auspicious clouds as the intention, fully showcasing the strong local cultural style. The design team extracts the essence of Qinghai residential buildings and closely combines them with the natural terrain. The architectural form is a back desk style, giving every guest room and large public space a perfect landscape, which also makes the building look more orderly and disorganized. The design adopts a combination of modern construction methods and local traditional culture, pursuing the harmonious unity of technological beauty, culture, and nature, with local culture as the keynote, allowing residents to return to tranquility and nature emotionally. Through the changes in materials, the clever combination of stone, metal, glass, and wood forms a rich contrast between reality and virtuality. Fully leveraging the symbolic meanings of each material, weakening the sense of oppression caused by the huge volume of the building, and achieving a lightweight visual effect.
