Pan Pacific Hotel

Great internal architecture at the Pan Pacific Hotel. Internal terraces and walkways bring the outside inside. A circular stairwell rises snake-like towards a sun inspired light well. In the bar area muted light filters from rows of arc shaped, steel framed, timber beams. Seated guests become aware of a light show that illuminates the concrete columns stretching overhead. As the patterns of lights and colours move from space to space the eye is distracted and tracks their progress across the room. Conversation is drawn to comment on the geometric light show unfolding.
