MOVEMENTS IN ARCHITECTURE 02 | 2015 HOTEL BARCELÓ BY GABRIELSANTOS PLANUNG + DESIGN NORDIC IDENTITY ­ INTERVIEW WITH SNØHETTA A LOOK AT THE FAMOUS GRAND HOTEL EUROPE IN ST. PETERSBURG AS SPECTACULAR AS POSSIBLE ­ TRAVEL ARCHITECTURE EDITORIAL Armin Fischer, Dreimeta (Augsburg) LET'S TALK ABOUT: ON THE ROAD pulse interviews Armin Fischer, the founder of Dreimeta, an architecture bureau in Augsburg, Germany This issue focuses on travel. I imagine that you are on the road more than you would like to be. What strikes you when you are waiting at stations or airports or when you have to stay at hotels? What I notice first and foremost is, because everything is now digital, the human touch and human interaction tends to be missing. Things are slowly becoming more and more anonymous.

TVs will be replaced by comprehensive entertainment systems that can be controlled by guests' own devices. Perhaps in future these systems will include a digital housekeeper to make guests' stays easier. Quite a few things are currently happening on the technical front. Should the traditional leather folder be replaced by a tablet PC? What other innovations might make sense? With tablet PCs and apps the options are practically unlimited... One example would be for hotels to factor in regular guests' preferences and adapt services accordingly. What about building automation ­ networking and controlling various functions using a touchpad, tablet or smartphone? Very much the way to go, but operating it should be in...
