Various materials became the starting point for room projects. For example, Tom Main and his Morphosis bureau, who designed the interiors of four hotel rooms, chose wood and natural stone for their projects. Two of Maine's rooms are trimmed with wood planks, and the other two are clad in quartzite slabs. This material is mined near the hotel complex, and it was the quartzite that Zumthor used to clad his thermal baths. All four rooms of the Californian architect have a glass shower room in the center of the room and have balconies overlooking the Alps. Morphosis also completed the design of the hotel lobby and entrance lobby. Note that in 2015, Tom Mayne's workshop was commissioned to develop a project for a 380-meter hotel tower with the same name - 7132, which was also planned to be built in Valls. Archi.ru
