Hotel architect AXIS increases its profile in the Hawaiian hotel design segment
AXIS is extremely proud to announce that our AC Hotel Maui Wailea hotel design project – designed in collaboration with noted Hawaii-based architects AHL Architects – has been named a finalist for the Hospitality Design Magazine 2022 HD Awards in the Select Service category. Interior design expertise on the project was provided by noted hospitality interior designers SANDdesign.
AXIS was hired to deliver a site plan study and schematic designs for this estate hotel, including delivering conceptual designs for the stand-alone reception building, central four-story guest suite building, and feature infinity edge pool and poolside tiki bar. Inspired by its tropical ocean-view setting and with respectful recognition of the region’s deep Pacific Islander cultural heritage, the exterior of the hotel harmoniously blends classically Polynesian long-house post-and-beam Hale Halawai (airy open-walled buildings) and Hale Noa (closed-walled buildings) with the more recently traditional Hawaiian plantation architectural style.
