Introduction
The Pixel Smart Hotel is the first of its prototypical model in India, integrating AI and robotics with high- quality and fresh design with a perspective of transforming the hospitality industry which we feel uses heavy operational resources and has inefficient day to day management.
To create this hotel, we agreed with the clients to retrofit the existing building to minimize construction and wastage as well as allow for quicker timelines.
Located close to the touristic destination in Baga, North Goa, with beautiful views of the river, the hotel stricture was an existing concrete block that we stripped down to the bare shell and convert to a hotel program.
Façade Design
The hotel will have a pixelated perforated new facade with a circuit board pattern on the south side facing the street giving a strong conceptual identity as well as creating a much needed screen screen that can minimise room temperature and allow for less utilization of artificial cooling
Circuits as Graphics as Facade
The northern facades of the hotel will have simple vertical framework to support planting and green additionally cooling the building and providing privacy at the rear from adjacent buildings.

Interior and Furniture Design
The interior is inspired from the bold colours seen in Goan homes that will represented through a fresh perspective of modern geometry and clean lines.
The room typologies are designed as three types depending on the user, one a deeper one that within existing shell as the standard double for couples, the wider suites on the terraces that can house a family and the last as dormitory that can cater to a group of friends.
The interior design of the hotel will emphasis on clean and minimal furniture, with seamless floors allowing for a fresh, cool and futuristic feel to the place.
