Alongside guest amenities, it has a number of areas that are accessible to the public including an exhibition space, bar and a plaza for hosting cultural events.

"The Potato Head Studios is a resort for open engagement rather than private consumption," said OMA.

The entrance to the plaza, meanwhile, is covered by another elevated block that holds the public route inside and features a private roof garden on top.

Restaurants, pools, spas, an exhibition space and a bar are all located in the main structure, alongside the suite of identical guestrooms. On top, there is a large public rooftop with views to the sea that is accessed by ...
