Hi matic by Metali Crosset with Patrick Elouarghi and Philippe Chatelet

A French designer named Metali Crasset has designed a hotel called 'Hi matic'. This hotel has been designed to be completely organic and aware of the environmental friendly use. The stay allows visitors to check-in, order food and exchange tips on the city, all this service is made via through the hotel's online system and a plethora of screens throughout the building. (Anon, n.d)

Hi matic hotel, Paris 

The space designed in this hotel assists the customer to have concentration, reflection and attention, in order to focus on work or rather to enjoy the stay for leisure.

The Hi matic hotel allows guests to choose and change music in public areas, can plan their tour on the city guide map which is placed on one wall as you enter in the hotel and may collect meals from one automatic machine in the restaurant.

The hotel consists of 42 rooms, which are spread over five floors. Rooms are designed in a modular system where one can change its function throughout the day as required. As a must the hotel itself inquires the guest to respect the environment and keeps it clean whenever and wherever he/she will make use of the space. (K.Parker, 2011)

The hospitality of the Hi matic hotel, provides self-service machines where you can buy the object or food of your choice.

As a future reference this hotel consists a lot of good concepts that may refer for my intended thesis planning. The Hi matic hotel contains and focuses a lot on the self-service conservation, which it is why I have chosen to pick this concept design as a future reference to more upcoming studies.
