Research notes

The hotel turns the space between two vertical cores into a connected sequence of public interiors.

Completed in 2018, Morpheus occupies an existing development footprint within Macau’s City of Dreams resort. Its paired cores, central atrium and openings through the building organize rooms and shared facilities around a much larger spatial composition.

Bridges cross between the internal towers while the external structural network reduces the need for supports inside. Compare exterior and atrium views to see how the same openings shape both the skyline silhouette and the experience of moving through the hotel.
