| Abstract |
A design hotel is a category of hotel, which is specialized by creative spaces and individualized services. It has been an opportunity to small-sized hotel among major franchised hotel market. One of the main reason of this success is rapid adaptation of complex and diverse needs of customers to various architectural elements of design hotel. From this success, we can learn that rapid response of targeted customers is a key of success. To response rapidly changing customers need, analyzing architectural elements composing hotel spaces will be an essential process. However, a research on analyzing customer characteristics and find its relation to architectural elements have not been reported yet to authors knowledge. Therefore, main goal of this paper is construction of design hotel retrieval system by analyzing the architectural elements by an ontology. We construct architectural elements ontology by studying design hotels built in recent period, to investigate applicability of analyzed data in design hotel planning process. To this end, similarities between design hotels and difference of architectural presentation styles are investigated based on the fact that design hotels are designed for targeted customers characteristics. Based on this results, we aim to provide intuitive information for future design hotel development. |
