Wyndham Dongrong

Wyndham Dongrong is a resort located in the south of Yixian County, Anhui, China. The resort covers 67118 square meters and unites architecture, landscape and interior design in one solution.

Yixian Green marble, a local stone, clads the walls below the third floor, so the building appears to sink into the natural setting. Horse head wall forms are repeated as an array and simplified into art installations along the street.
