Description and Table of Contents
Description
F.W. Dodge projects a 20 percent increase in hotel construction, the fastest-growing category in the United States. and the largest growth areas within this category are luxury hotels abroad, resort hotels, and historic renovations - all major focuses of this book. These are the individualistic "high end" projects that command the most spending and require the most originality from the architect. The book covers environmental, architectural, landscape, and interior design processes for both the large "colony" resort hotels and smaller boutique hotels. The text follows the typical development program from site plan to envelope to interior and fully discusses technical construction details, planning, safety requirements, materials, and the needs for various spaces including restaurants, coffee shops, and business communication.
