AIM Architecture has designed MuWeCo below the foothills of the Luo Fu Shan range, in Sichuan, China. The resort is an ensemble project with a spa.
The vaulted roof is striking against the natural landscape and evokes the feeling of being under big tent, rather than inside a big building, which suits a stay in the mountains. The dramatic entrance and lobby provides a strong sense of place, however, and eventually opens the vantage point with a large deck with 360-degree views to the spa and surrounding natural area.
