This book is mainly about the design and architecture of the Nobis Hotel. One must keep in mind that these are just a few of the elements in the much greater entity which is our hotel. They are, however, very important elements indeed. This book was initiated in order to present some of the thoughts behind this architecture and design, which is the result of a more than two-year construction process under the creative leadership of the renowned architecture and design studio "Claessen Koivisto Rune".
