From the architect's site:
Inspired by diamonds, the “purest, strongest and most eternal” element, the project aims to create a space that is both sci-fi and romantic, allowing guests to experience an extraordinary and ultimate journey in the desert.The hotel building is cleverly integrated into the vast sand dunes, with sharp geometric sculptures contrasting with the soft curves of the desert, which not only reflects the awe of nature, but also highlights the unique temperament of the building. The design team carefully planned diamond-shaped sand-viewing windows and faceted spaces to incorporate the desert landscape into the field of vision, so that each room has a unique sand-viewing perspective and private landscape.When night falls, the building's surface is dotted with starlight, which complements the bright starry sky and creates a dreamlike atmosphere. In particular, the Star Auditorium, as the spiritual symbol of the hotel, has a starry sky ceiling of more than 27 meters and a triangular glass of more than 10 meters high, which perfectly integrates natural beauty with ceremony space, making it an ideal place for weddings and other special events.Zhongwei Desert Diamond Hotel is not only a place to stay, but also a haven for people to release their souls and regain energy. Here, guests can get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, get close to nature, experience the wonders of the desert smoke and the sunset over the long river, and feel the unique charm and power of the desert.
