Building As a Wave: Atlantis Ko Olina Resort – Test Example

Building As a Wave: Atlantis Ko Olina Resort – Test Example
The design of Atlantis Ko Olina subtly immerses visitors in the vibrant culture of Hawaii’s Oahu Island. The resort hotel and waterpark features a contemporary design that echoes that of the new Atlantis Sanya Resort in South China, which HOK also designed, and continues the company’s rebranding. The site plan recalls the culturally significant shape of a traditional Polynesian fish hook, which communicates strength, integrity and a connection to nature.

“When we designed the new Atlantis resort in China, we were able to simultaneously rebrand the flag as a modern concept while establishing an iconic new direction for future projects. In winning a competition a few years later to design the new Atlantis in Hawaii, we were able to reinforce the direction set in China while expanding it to a low-rise building that remains iconic. The challenge of achieving this was solved with the vision of the building as a wave. The initial sketch was taken from inside the curl of a wave, which resonated with the client as inherently appropriate and exciting.” - Gregory Cranford, AIA, Design Principal
