Hotel & Retail centre, Tashkent

Studio Moren took part in a concept design competition for this mixed-use development, which comprises a 227 bed up-scale branded hotel, an office development and an experiential retail destination. Our proposal seeks to create a new landmark development that responds to and enhances the surrounding context.

Our recent visits to Tashkent have offered the team invaluable insight into the culture and traditions that Uzbeks hold dear. Having gained first-hand experience of the hospitality, cuisine and art of Tashkent inspired the approach to formulating our design concept.

Uzbekistan’s art and architecture is heavily inspired by Islamic tradition. Geometric patterns and structures feature on a number of the buildings of character in Tashkent, many of which are heritage or historic in nature. The challenge we set ourselves was to use a contemporary interpretation of a geometric motif, in conjunction with analysis of the site context, to derive a truly distinctive building composition that responded fittingly to the immediate surroundings of the site.
