The Markham Street Hotel has been developed in partnership with eightvillage architects. Day & Day Company conceptualized the landscape as a simple entry court playing on the austere beauty of the rigid form of the architectural screen against the organic form of a tree’s canopy. We selected the entry court tree species based on the fall color display as a complement to the brick ‘warehouse’ facade. The hotel’s bar rests on the top of the principal building ‘crown’ immersing the visitor in a jewel toned meadow landscape. The immersive roof landscape will appear to grow out of the ‘ground,’ employing an interlocking tray system and sculpted foam for this highly fabricated landscape on structure.
