TAGS: Hotel, Inn, Villa, Tourism, Lijiang RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Domestic water for the hotel comes from the melted water streaming down from the towering ice capped mountain. The flowing water in not only used for landscaping, but also for drinking water. But snow water from the mountain contains highly rich minerals and cannot be used for drinking, thus, filter system was applied across the hotel. CHALLENGE: The lodging area of this hotel is renovated from old civic residences. The biggest challenge is how to connect them by design without drawing any damage to the existing buildings. Secondly, the interior floor can not be polished because of floor heating system. So the architect managed to use epoxy resin instead of concrete flooring.
