Sleeperz Cardiff Hotel
The project for Sleeperz Cardiff included the requirement to develop the detailed brief for the first in a chain of new station hotels and to anticipate how this would inform the design of the next 15 to 20 , to be designed on different sites throughout the UK. The project brief was confirmed as a mixture of elements common to all hotels, with plans which could be adapted to the contingencies of awkward sites, and diverse architecture which addressed the differing contexts of cities such as Newcastle, Manchester, Birmingham and Edinburgh.
