HOTEL AZUL
Hotel Azul and Verde Restaurant are located in the heart of the most dynamic city in the United States, New York City. Since New York is consistently adapting to new styles, trends and design, I’ve decided that this location is much in need of a hotel such as the hotel Azul and Verde restaurant. Inspired by water, the hotel exhibits forms of different wave patterns. Wave like elements drifts into the environment, seamlessly unifying with flowing water that calms the guests as they arrive. This cooling experience follows the architecture all throughout the entire hotel.
Also inspired from nature, Verde rejuvenates guests with the energizing and yet soothing tones of greens within the restaurant. The presence of nature is felt throughout the restaurant with organic architectural forms and clean soothing lines. The unique design and appearance of Azul and Verde will leave guests both inspired and refreshed.
