- 4. Hotel DenaConcept Statement: Hotel Dena is centered around a fire and ice theme. Warm colors are coupled with white to create a dualist relationship. The white is meant to reflect the surrounding landscape of Anchorage, while warm colors help guest feel more comfortable and warm in their environment. Organic shapes are used throughout the space to mirror the ever changing terrain of the area. Sustainability is stressed by using furniture local to the state, being mindful of ways to save and reuse energy, and being respectful of the terrain in the area. Part of the uniqueness that Hotel Dena provides is the numerous activities that come with the guests stay. Hotel Dena uses activities typical to the area like rock climbing and sea kayaking to teach guests more about the real Alaska, unlike most resorts in the area. Lessons are free, and guests can sign up for day trips into the wild.Located just outside of Anchorage, AKResearch
