Hotel Puerta America
"Unfettered design by fashionable names - not for the faint-hearted but definitely an experience"
The Hotel Puerta América is a space that invites people to dream - a neverbeen-
attempted-before project that has brought together nineteen of the
top architecture and design studios in the world from thirteen different countries.
Originality, luxury, innovation and formal freedom defi ne a hotel that
awakens its guests’ senses. Each of the fl oors showcases a different concept
in hotel rooms. All play with different materials, colours and shapes to create
spaces that bring together the best in avant-garde design and architecture,
where creativity and the freedom to develop each of the spaces has been the
hallmark.
The Hotel Puerta América is, in short, an eclectic, daring space that does
not sell comfort short. Rooms with luxury in their fi nest detail that entice
guests to search for new forms, to interact with them, to touch, to see, and
even to breathe and smell... In short, to utterly enjoy a unique space that
stands out especially for its quality and wide range of services.
The concept of the Hotel Puerta América emerged from Hoteles Silken
mission to create a hotel that was unique, merging different ways of seeing
architecture, design and art. The group has put intensive time and energy
into the build over the past three years, not to mention investment – estimated
at 75 million euros. The area, more than 34,000 square metres, is
designed to play host to people from different nationalities and cultures.
Everyone involved embarked on an ambitious idea whose very ethos was to
become a meeting point, with creative freedom as a banner. All the fl oors
boast the same layout, with a central lobby upon exiting the lift, and a hallway
which leads to rooms on either side.
The goal was to offer a space where each of the architects could refl ect
the best of him or herself, of his or her work, and in many cases of his or
her culture and way of viewing the world through architecture and design,
and also through photography and literature. The Hotel Puerta América is
a colossal accomplishment, a sacrifi ce spanning several years and on which
at times more than 650 people were working at the same time in order to
realise this unique work of art.
