The Gamer's Getaway

The evolution of gaming from a stigmatised pastime to a global, multi-billion-dollar industry has been nothing short of revolutionary. Once dismissed as a time-wasting activity, gaming is now celebrated as a legitimate form of entertainment, complete with its own Olympic recognition. Studies continue to highlight its numerous benefits, such as improved hand-eye coordination, problem-solving skills, and enhanced teamwork and communication in multiplayer environments. 
Inspired by this transformation, this project seeks to create a novel architectural concept: Gaming Capsule Hotels. By integrating gaming hubs with the compact and efficient design of capsule hotels, this project aims to maximise spatial utility while offering gamers a unique, immersive experience. These spaces are designed not just for gameplay but for fostering interaction and connection among like-minded individuals, creating a vibrant community within a compact footprint.
