Grand Terminus Hotel is planning a existing of its main traditional “Heritage” building. For the modern extension, the architects focused on maintaining a relationship with the existing hotel, while also working with sun exposure levels. The triangulated form morphs off the end of existing to become an unique entity that is still tied to its context. The geometric form provides dynamic interior spaces that aim to “establish an intimate relation with the existing small houses in the surroundings.”

The extension of the hotel is on top of a conference hall, built in 1966. The conference hall have never been a fully integrated part of the hotel, so the extension aims to incorporate the hall in a modern architectural icon, funded on the old hotels` historic qualities.

To reduce the weightload on the conference hall, the extension is a solid wood construction. This also enables a sustainable approach; A compact volum gives minimum heat loss, Natural non toxic materials, damp open wall construction that improves the indoor climate.
