Atkins has won an international competition to design a resort hotel which is going to be built in a 100 meter deep quarry in the Songjiang district near to Shanghai in China.
Although from these pictures the hotel looks almost unreal, the project is expected to be completed by May, 2009.
The quarry will protect the resort from the weather and reduce the energy needs of the hotel. The complex will contain restaurants, cafes, sport facilities, and will even include underwater public areas and guestrooms.
