Heritage conversion
A fit-out for 22 cave and stone rooms, with furniture made to a 3D scan of each room.
A capability showcase: what we can deliver for a hotel like this. It is not a completed project, and the figures are design targets, not results.
Typical brief
Turn carved stone houses into a small hotel, keeping the rock visible.
Building and local style
Cappadocian houses of carved volcanic tuff, with arched rooms and rock floors.
Typical plot and building constraints
No straight walls, uneven rock floors and a local crew used to stone, not joinery.
Suggested room mix
| Room type | Count | Size |
|---|---|---|
| Cave room | 14 | 30 m² |

Scope we can cover

Suggested working model
Materials and a supervisor
Planned timeline by phase
Planned weeks per phase. Phases overlap in practice; we set the real plan per project.
Planned split across our own factories
- Kayseri Casegoods and fixed joinery
- İzmir Upholstery frames and loose seating
- Kocaeli Metal works and frames
- Sakarya Veneer, doors and wall panelling
Share of the factory-made scope by site. The rest comes through Turkish suppliers we know well: fabrics, stone and solid-surface tops, glass and mirrors, and lighting.
Typical challenges and our answers
Challenge
No two walls are straight.
Our answer
We scan each room and make bases and headboards to the scan.
Challenge
A local crew new to hotel joinery.
Our answer
Our supervisor builds the first room with them; the rest follow that room.
Design targets
| Metric | Target range |
|---|---|
| Average daily rate (ADR) | +20% – +30% |
| Occupancy | +6 – +10 points |
| Revenue per available room (RevPAR) | +28% – +42% |
vs. today or the local market
Target ranges we design towards, for planning only. They are not results and not promises; your revenue team sets the real numbers.
Expected effect
Rooms with visible rock can become the most booked category.
Design principles
- Scan first, then draw.
- A good local crew with a good supervisor beats a big crew from far away.

Four expert views on the concept
Each note is written from the point of view of someone with thirty years in that role.
Unique rooms sell well online if the photos show the stone.
Each room needs its own guide card, since no two work the same.
Stone dust is hard on fabrics; washable covers save money.
The rock keeps a steady temperature; leave the walls bare.
