Buildings which put forward the physical exploration of the exterior architectural forms tend to give such a challenge to the interior treatments, such as U Janevalla hotel in Bandung. Designed by Budi Pradono Architects, the architecture of the hotel is inspired by the analogy of Jaipong Dance and is translated into tilted facades and forms that create an expression of movement of each story of the building. However, the building is lacking in detailed execution in the interior space where the dancing effect is hardly perceived from the inner space. Therefore, this paper proposes interior design alternatives which focus on the bedrooms as the main facility offered to the guests, mainly in the furniture design and interior details. Through examining the analogy of Jaipong Dance, it is found that the tilted shapes and forms of the architecture can be brought into the interior through modification of the forms, additional interior details, and filling the spatial leftovers.
