As public life style has changed with the rapid social development, hotel guests have transformed from the basic accommodation needs to relax and relief from fatigue. It becomes necessary that Biophilic designs effectively relieve fatigue and bring natural healing effects on users in the hotel. The purpose of this study is to investigate the degree of application of Biophilic design characteristics, and analyze spatial characteristics regarding "Prospect" and "Refuge" elements in spatial relation and layout of modern hotel lobby space. Five cases were selected among five-star hotels which opened in Seoul since it has built or renovated in 2015. For this study, site visits were conducted to classify the areas in lobby space and explore the characteristics of various spaces based on floor plan data. DepthMapX and Space Syntax-based VGA was used to analyze their Visual Connectivity, Visual Integration, Visual Isovist and Mean Depth values to achieve spatial digitalization. Finally it deduces the application degree of Biophilic design through clear figures. As a result, it can be seen from the comparison that the Visual Connectivity and Integration of partial hotel lobby are weak. In hotel design, especially for small hotels, more consideration should be given to the openness and permeability of space. Secondly, it is found that part of the lobby is located in the elevator hall in the high-rise, and the external Prospect is insufficient. The design of the main entrance and exit needs to be improved, while some furniture placement hinders Prospect. Some hotels still have deficiencies in ‘refuge’ elements in overall space. A certain depth need to be guaranteed in space planning, and attention should be paid to the overall ‘refuge’ while avoiding excessive uneven use. In terms of spatial planning, some hotels only focus on one or two points, and then need to balance the overall biophilic spatial characterstics, openness, connectivity, integration and spatial depth. |
