Muh Shoou Xixi
Muh Shoou Xixi is a hotel set within the Xixi Wetland. The hotel is renovated from five old buildings that stood on the site. The structural transformation was made with minimal intervention, so the buildings connect smoothly with the surrounding forest and water system. Trees with a trunk diameter of 10 centimeters or more were recorded by species, name and root level, and the layout follows the original vegetation, mainly persimmon trees. A banquet hall of 300 square meters is enclosed by windows on three sides. A water route based on the original landform allows arrival by boat.
Muh Shoou Xixi Hotel by GOA (Group of Architects) was selected as an exceptional example of architectural design by the A' Design Award. Muh Shoou Xixi Hotel won the Golden A' Design Award in Architecture, Building and Structure Design in 2020. The A' Architecture, Building and Structure Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design prize that rewards excellent design of skyscrapers, museums, residential buildings, commercial complexes, educational institutions, religious structures, infrastructure designs, landscaping projects and more.
