Umhlaba awukaze uswele ubuhle bemvelo namahhotela aphambili. Uma lezi zimbili sezihlangene zizoshayisana hlobo luni lwezinhlansi? Eminyakeni yamuva nje, "amahhotela aphambili asendle" adumile emhlabeni wonke, futhi kuyisifiso sokugcina sabantu sokubuyela emvelweni.
Imisebenzi emisha kaWhitaker Studio iyaqhakaza ogwadule olumazombezombe lwaseCalifornia, leli khaya liletha ukwakhiwa kweziqukathi ezingeni elisha. Yonke indlu yethulwa ngendlela ye-"starburst". Ukulungiselelwa kwesiqondisindlela ngasinye kukhulisa ukubuka futhi kunikeze ukukhanya okwanele kwemvelo. Ngokusho kwezindawo ezihlukene kanye nokusetshenziswa, ubumfihlo bendawo buklanywe kahle.
Ezindaweni eziwugwadule, phezulu kwe-rock outcrop kuhambisana nomsele omncane ogezwe ngamanzi esiphepho. I-"exoskeleton" yesiqukathi isekelwa amakholomu ayisisekelo kakhonkolo, futhi amanzi ageleza kuwo.
Leli khaya le-200㎡ linekhishi, igumbi lokuhlala, igumbi lokudlela namagumbi okulala amathathu. Ama-skylights ezitsheni ezitshekisayo agcwala yonke indawo ngokukhanya kwemvelo. Uhlu lwefenisha luyatholakala kuzo zonke izikhala. Ngemuva kwesakhiwo, iziqukathi ezimbili zemikhumbi zilandela indawo yemvelo, zakha indawo engaphandle evikelekile enompheme wokhuni nobhavu oshisayo.
Ingaphandle nengaphakathi lesakhiwo lizopendwe ngopende olumhlophe qwa ukuze libonise imisebe yelanga evela ogwadule olushisayo. Igalaji eliseduze lifakwe ama-solar panel ukuze indlu inikeze ugesi ewudingayo.
