The Design

About Wolo Hotelbinneontwerp

Wolo is 'n hotel geleë in Kuala Lumpur, Maleisië. Die binneontwerp weerspieël die Maleisiese kultuur en die Wolo-handelsmerkwaardes op 'n eietydse en gewaagde wyse. Die geskiedenis van Kuala Lumpur is 'n sentrale tema. Die ontvangstoonbank en die groot ingangshandvatsel is met die hand vervaardig en afgewerk met pasgemaakte tin, wat herinner aan die lang geskiedenis van tinproduksie in die stad. Die gelaagde topografie van plaaslike mynvelde word gebruik as 'n patroon vir die gangmat, die plafonhanglampe en die spieëls in die kamers. 'n Kenmerkende muur in die voorportaal verwys na die betekenis van die stad se naam, modderige samevloeiing.

Unique Properties: The most uniques feature in this design is that the project reflect Malaysian culture as well as WOLO brand value in a contemporary, creative and bold way. An enormous amount of thought, consideration, attention to details has gone into every aspect of the project. There are so much to be shared and one of them is Kuala Lumpur long and glorious history of pewter products. The hotel reception counter and entrance grand handle is handmade and finished with custom pewter.

Design Challenge: The hardest part of this design activity apart from its deadline is transforming Kuala Lumpur’s “DNA” into the project. For example, Kuala Lumpur has long mining history and hence topography layered pattern of mining field is incorporated into steel hence, corridor carpet, ceiling pendant light and the hotel room mirror. It is noteworthy that one of the key features of interior design is the “Kuala Lumpur Wall” displaying in lobby where Lumpur means “mud” in Malaysia national language and coupled with Kuala it means “muddy confluence”. The design and installation of the wall is certainly challenging and watching the result is fulfilling.
Inspiration: As a Malaysian designer who is born and bred in Kuala Lumpur, this project is inspired by “Kuala Lumpur”. With the great enthusiasm to make WOLO hotel a true Malaysian brand, Kuala Lumpur’s “DNA” has been incorporated into the design in such a way that history, cultures and stories of Kuala Lumpur are reflected in many aspects in WOLO hotel.
Project Duration: The project started in December 2018 and finished in october 2019 #the project is located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
