 WHAT IS MOTEL ?
Motel is an establishment that
provides short-term and
lodging usually located with
good access to the national
road network but with less
guest comforts.
 MOTELS IN ABROAD
● Motels gained international popularity in countries such as Thailand, Germany,
And Japan but in some countries the term "motel" now connotes either a low-end hotel (such
as 1 in Europe) or a no-tell motel.
● in France, motel-style chain accommodations of up to three stories (with exterior hallways and
stairwells) are marketed as "one-star hotels".
● in the Dominican Republic, "cabins" (named for their cabin-like shape) have all required
amenities but generally do not have windows, and have private parking for each room
individually.
● Usually one storied. A second story, if present, would face onto a balcony served by multiple
stairwells.
● motels frequently have large pools, such as the Thunderbird Motel on the Columbia River in
Portland, Oregon.
● In some motels, a handful of rooms would be larger and contain kitchenettes or apartment-like
amenities; these rooms were marketed at a higher price as "efficiencies" as their occupants
could prepare food themselves instead of incurring the cost of eating all meals in restaurants.
 MOTELS IN INDIA
● Motels are typically "I"-, "L"-, or
"U"-shaped layout that includes guest
rooms; an attached manager's office;
a small reception.
● rooms sometimes provide a TV, air
conditioning, refrigerator and a
seating area.
● All motels are not very luxurious.
● motels are usually one or two floors
● Luxurious motels provide swimming
pools and apartment like amenities
like the abroad motels.

NOBU RYOKAN

Architects : Montalba Architects,
Studio PCH, TAL Studio

RYOKAN Area : 9200 ft²

Year : 2017

City : Malibu

Country : United States

 Located between the tucked away beauty of Carbon Beach and the
quintessential Pacific Coast Highway, the first of the Ryokan

LOCATION
Collection has found its home on the rolling coast of Malibu,
California. Nestled among some of the finest shops and restaurants
in the world, and with a magnificent secret beach on its doorstep,
Nobu Ryokan Malibu is perfectly placed to serve as the utmost
luxurious hideaway.
Nobu Ryokan is a renovation of a 1950’s era motel
in Malibu, CA. It is the flagship project for the
growing Nobu hospitality brand. The design
concept of Nobu Ryokan blends elements of a
traditional Japanese ryokan (inn) with Western
elements of a bed and breakfast and boutique
hotel. The resulting project includes rich wood
craftsmanship, meaningful material transitions,
and framing views, all reflective of traditional
Japanese design. Interior and exterior spaces
have blurred transitions leaving guests feeling
connected to the natural environment. No two
rooms are the same and some offer private
courtyards with framed views of the Pacific. The
design accomplishes this while maintaining the
privacy expected of a boutique hotel.
The material palette of Nobu Ryokan is ipe, teak, poured in place concrete, oil rubbed
bronze and limestone. Knuckle jointed siding corners and expressing the boards used to
form the concrete celebrates the craftsmanship throughout the project. The sandy tones of
the concrete and the bronze left to weather organically interact with the natural materials of
wood and stone and reinforce the architecture's connection to the site and surrounding
environment.
This beachfront property in Malibu, California presented some design challenges. The project was a
complete renovation that transformed an existing bungalow type roadside motel into a quiet oasis in the
heart of a bustling beach community on the Pacific Coast Highway. The city of Malibu has very strict
regulations related to building on the beach that the design and construction teams had to navigate. In
addition to this, there were structural challenges associated with an ocean side site with the potential for
significant seismic activity. Also, because the property is on the PCH, noise mitigation was an important
factor in the design. Though you are only steps away from a busy highway, the courtyard feels peaceful
and intimate with views drawing the eye to the Pacific Ocean.

LANTERN HOTEL
 Architects: ZLGdesign

LANTERN
Area : 2850 m²
Year : 2015
HOTEL City : Kuala Lumpur
Country : Malaysia
 LOCATION
TCL Hotel & Properties
Sdn Bhd (331807-M)
38, Jalan Petaling,
50000 Kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia.
The Lantern Hotel project started in 2012 with long

periods of time to get the building facade approval

from the authorities, getting the client to confirm

room numbers and room layout, going over and over

the design, looking at different options and doing

continuously cost-cutting exercises to maximize cost

and profit for the client, achieving 49 guest rooms, all

with attached bathroom, 2 dorms with each 6 beds

and external bathroom, facilities for breakfast,

centralized computer area, locker area and an outdoor

terrace overlooking Petaling Street, Chinatown.

The existing shop houses at this site were demolished and were replaced with a huge building block
of 5 levels, with no regards to the surrounding or the Malaysian heritage. Hong Leong Bank is
operating at the first 2 levels. The 3 floors above which were empty over the last few years, was most
recently used as a stationary/ bookstore as far as we know.
The hotel has proper accessible corridor for every rooms and open seating area for guests. It has many
designable and comfortable bedrooms for guests,so they would feel good.The architect try to design
this kind of hotel in which guests would feel good and respond to the surrounding, partially heritage and
history of Petaling Street in the most sensitive and empathic way possible.
 In terms of sustainability architect decided from beginning on to have all the public areas natural
ventilated, only the guest rooms have optional split air con unit, and to bring as much natural light
into the space as possible. They ensured cross ventilation in the horizontal as well as vertical space
via openings in the facade and the vertical void with a gap between skylight and roof. They only used
locally available, locally manufactured building materials like dark burned clay brick, polished colored
concrete and terrazzo tiles for the floor, white lime wash finish and natural plywood.
The architect mostly use timber shutters for the facade and use recycle solid timber for terrace
and loose furniture. Solar panels for hot water showers are installed on the roof and last but not the
least, the total cost of this renovation all in including furniture / furnishing up to soap holder is only
4.2mil

GOA
 INTRODUCTION
Goa, state of India, comprising a mainland
district on the country’s southwestern coast
and an offshore island. It is located about 250
miles (400 km) south of Mumbai (Bombay).
One of India’s smallest states, it is bounded by
the states of Maharashtra on the north and
Karnataka on the east and south and by the
Arabian Sea on the west. The capital is Panaji
(Panjim), on the north-central coast of the
mainland district. Formerly a Portuguese
possession, it became a part of India in 1962
and attained statehood in 1987. Area 1,429
square miles (3,702 square km). Pop. (2011)
1,457,723.
LAND: RELIEF AND DRAINAGE
Sandy beaches, estuaries, and promontories
characterize the 65-mile (105-km) coastline of
mainland Goa. In the interior region, low, forested
plateaus merge with the wooded slopes of the
Western Ghats, which rise to nearly 4,000 feet
(1,220 metres) on the eastern edge of the state.
The two largest rivers are the Mandavi and the
Zuvari, between the mouths of which lies the
island of Goa (Ilhas). The island is triangular, the
apex (called the cape) being a rocky headland
separating the harbour of Goa into two
anchorages.
ECONOMY: GOVERNMENT AND SOCIETY:
● AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY, AND FISHING; ● CONSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK;
● RESOURCES; ● EDUCATION.
● MANUFACTURING;
● SERVICES;
● TRANSPORTATION.
 SERVICES
The service sector of Goa’s economy has
increased in importance since the late 20th
century. This is attributable largely to the
rapid growth of the tourism industry. By the
early 21st century, tourism constituted a
significant segment of Goa’s economy, as
the state’s long, sandy beaches, coastal
vegetation, coconut palms, and unique
hotels attracted large numbers of
international and domestic visitors. The
expansion of tourism, however, has raised
concerns about preservation of the natural
environment.
 TRANSPORTATION
Goa is well connected to the rest of
India—and the world—by road, rail, sea, and
air. In Panaji there is a large bus terminal
that adjoins the station on the Konkan
railway. Completed in 1998, the Konkan
railway runs along India’s western coast
from west-central Maharashtra to southern
Karnataka, where it links with the country’s
southern railway. Another rail line connects
the state’s primary port at Marmagao
(via Madgaon) with the country’s
southwestern rail system by way of Castle
Rock (in Karnataka) in the Western Ghats.
There is an international airport at Dabolim,
near Panaji.
 NATIONAL HIGHWAYS
● AS OF MARCH 2011, THE TOTAL LENABOUT 69 KM
RAIL ROUTES CONNECT GOA TO OTHER PARTS
OF THE COUNTRY. THE TOTAL LENGTH OF SURFACE
AND UNSURFACED ROADS IN THE STATE WAS
10,224.63 KMS.
● GOA HAS A TOTAL OF 269 KM OF NATIONAL
HIGHWAYS.
● NH-17(OLD NAME)/NOW KNOWN AS NH-66 RUNS
ALONG INDIA’S WEST COAST AND LINKS GOA TO
MUMBAI IN THE NORTH AND MANGALORE TO THE
SOUTH;
● NH-4A RUNNING ACROSS THE STATE CONNECTS THE
CAPITAL PANAJI TO BELGAUM (KARNATAKA) TO THE
EAST.
 CULTURE OF GOA
A former Portuguese colony, Goa is
also fondly known as the 'Rome of the
East'. Inhabited and colonized by the
Portuguese for almost 450 years, the
culture of Goa is distinctly different
from that of the rest of the nation. Here
is a quick run-down of the rich and
varied heritage of Goa.
A small state on India's western coast, Goa
has always benefitted as a trade centre
because of its easily accessible ports. With a
beautiful harmonization of the East and West,
Goans have taken the best of both worlds. A
civilization of warm, happy people, Goa sees
a mix of different religions like Christians,
Catholics, Muslims, and Hindus that live
together in harmony. Following their age-old
traditions and customs, Goan's celebrate all
major festivals with fervour without bringing
any religious barriers within the society.
 FOOD CULTURE
Food and drinks are an integral part of marking
Goa's vibrant culture. Meals bring families
together, and a staple is the combination of Goan
fish curry and rice. Apart from this staple, Goa is
also famous for its mixed bag of freshly caught
seafood. Prawns, crabs, kingfish with their
traditional spicy marination are a delectable
delicacy for the locals.
 CLIMATE
Goa’s climate is equable, with high
temperatures generally in the 80s F (30s C)
and low temperatures in the 70s F (20s C)
throughout the year. A southwest monsoon
blows between June and September. The
state receives about 115 inches (3,000 mm)
of rainfall annually, most occurring during
the monsoon season.
 CONSTRUCTION MATERIAL

 EXPOSED LATERITE WALLS
Laterite is well known as a building material for more
than thousands of years. When moist, laterite can be cut
into different shapes and sizes . Once mined and
exposed to air it gets hardened and become resistant to
atmospheric conditions. Laterite is a 100 percentage
natural Eco-friendly product and that quality makes it the
most preferred construction material. The lovely color
and texture along with its strength and physically
resistant nature makes it compatible for both interior
and exterior architecture . This natural stone possesses
a unique rust colour and texture . It is a zero finish
material which can be used as a building block (load
bearing) directly as well as for wall cladding.
