We are also attemptmg to create a bui�ding that is sympathetic lo lhe surroundi�g area We have <br />designed several muili-slory hotels in downtown core areas This experience has allowed us to lest out several <br />design strategies for ciadding systems. Because hotels must meet tranchise requirements for room s�ze and <br />layoul, often we have a facade lhat is a single wall plane punctuated by wmdows lhat are uni(orm in size and <br />location <br />To overcome the monotonous of this rypicai layout, we propose lo create relief in lhe facade using ihree design <br />elements. Cladding materials, color and relief. <br />1. Claddmg malerials chosen are brick and stucco. We have selected these two claddi�g systems because lhey <br />can be installed with bolh coior vanation and texWre variation Both claddings are o( similar materials. <br />a The bnck system vre have chosen is what is reterred to as'Ihin brick'. The brick is constructed irom <br />clay materials, the same as fuil size brick. The difference is that only the outer most face of lhe brick <br />�s used, usually aboul il2" thick The result is a cladding that has lhe look and feel o( masonry <br />construclion, at a reduced cost <br />b. The slucco system we have chosen is compahble �vith masonry, and lhe M�o complement themselves <br />nicely Both daddings have been used together hisrorically. We have chosen a color palette of earth <br />tones thal allows bolh cladding matcrials to fit togclher. The slucco system we are proposing is a hybrid <br />system comprised of cement board covered with synlhetic parging similar lo a lraditional stucco syslem. <br />One probiem with tradihonal stuccolcement is cracking and maintenanca. The system we are proposing <br />eiimmates lhis problem by loweling on an elastomeric coating. The coatir,y is made from synthetic <br />malerials, and while the appearance is sWcco, the performance of lhe coating is more durable and less <br />prone to cracking than traditional cement based stucco. Besides lhe advantage of having an inte9ral <br />color which eliminated painting, it also allows us to create relief in ihe facade We can'build ouC areas on <br />lop o( lhe cement board and cement coatings by using lhin foam elements. Decause the weather <br />protective membrane is provided by the cement hoard and cemenl coating, addmg (oam elements poses <br />minimal waler inirusion problems. The elastomeric coating is compatible wilh both foam and cemenl, so <br />we achieve bo!h a crack free stucco look and a durable low maintenance cladding. <br />COMMERCI AL HOSPITALITY RESIDENTIAL INTERIORS ���� <br />2Aa3 Bnghlan Wpy SE.
