    The main volume of the hotel arranges the rooms in a ribbon configuration that floats above the existing parking garage on the site. Lifting the hotel rooms from the street provides privacy for the visitors, while creating a ground floor activated by shops, a restaurant and cafe, in addition to the hotel lobby. The ribbon mediates the potentially problematic context by hovering closest to the ground adjacent to the old Stavanger neighbourhood and lifting dramatically when facing its neighbouring nine story apartment tower. 
    The floating ribbon takes advantage of the elevated site, with its views of the city centre and the surrounding mountains. The formal manipulations within the height regulations allow the hotel to have a diversity of views for all occupants. The walkable programmed roof terrace, cozy interior garden and conference facility on the skyline create literal and visual connections with the environment rarely found in an urban three star hotel.
    Directly adjacent to the site, a new pedestrian street will enliven the area. To further activate this new public space, the ground floor is programmed with a cafe and bakery to enhance public facilities along the street. The hotel ground floor also ties itself into the site by providing for a public passage that connects Lokkeveien to Olav Kryttes Gate. The hotel restaurant and the cafe/bakery program therefore serves as a concentrated zone of public traffic that integrates the ground floor into its urban surroundings.
