A resort paradise to experience the best of each season in a single stay.

Team members: Ana Curbelo | Flavia Yoshitake | Ryan Rassasombath

CONCEPT

The Horai is a 5-star resort where all four seasons are represented inside the resort.

The rooms change overnight to each season and based on the season of the day, the whole resort programming and events will correspond to that season. This will include different cultures and food around the world.

STORY

HORAI, goddess of the seasons and the natural portions of time.

Originally the personifications of nature in its different seasonal aspects, but in later times they were regarded as goddesses of order in general and natural justice.

The goddess of seasons set off to create this mystical place as a sanctuary to allow them to showcase their powers for leisure purposes. The sisters created this magnificent place to be able to escape from reality and recreate their favorite things about their seasons and culture. They created a postmodernist design to bring the past Greek natural style with the present.
