The two main objectives that The Summit Hotel strives to fulfill are to impress and decrease stress. The concept is the juxtaposition of modern human-built environments against a backdrop of breathtaking natural landscapes.

  utilizing sleek lines and bold forms.

• The natural piece of the concept will be implemented through the integration of biophilic design.

• The inclusion of unique and transitioning LED light displays will work to reflect the ever-changing lights of the Mexico City skyline and

  to create a sense of wonder and possibility.

• Hard surfaces and textures will convey strength and fortitude, while the transient state of the lighting will embody resilience and

  adaptability seen in nature, but also in successful enterprises.
