The hotel building marks the entrance to the new perimeter block development at the corner of Lautenschlagerstraße and Kronenstraße. The façade is made of Gauinger travertine, a natural stone already found in several locations throughout Stuttgart and, historically, a classic building material of the city. The design reinterprets this traditional material through the varied treatment of the façade’s solid and open sections. This creates a subtle visual “wave” across the façade, giving the building a dynamic appearance.

Particular attention was paid to the distinctive design of the base zone. The travertine extends downward, creating a clearly defined building corner that simultaneously frames and integrates the entrance to the suburban railway station. The reddish-brown color scheme of the base provides clear orientation to both the hotel entrance and the station access.

Inside, the coffee bar extends from the entrance toward the courtyard, where it opens onto a sheltered outdoor area offering a high level of amenity.
