Design Details

Unique Properties
With the traditional courtyard three-way hierarchical relationship as the design concept, let the lobby, aisle and lobby bar have their own place, and jointly create a three-hall-in-one state. The gray space divided by lines on both sides of the corridor makes the dense large and medium space suddenly clear. It also has the interest of step by step in oriental aesthetics and creates a quiet and dynamic atmosphere.
Inspiration
Inspired by Chinese classical gardens and combined with staggered artistic techniques to establish spatial order, the plane layout has a magnificent atmosphere and at the same time, there is no lack of elegance in Jiangnan gardens. Integrating Oriental life philosophy and art into contemporary design, design tries to find the space context of dialogue with the current Chinese elite, and deduce the contemporary Oriental temperament with profound connotations.
Research
In the modern architectural space, there is an implicit Oriental aesthetic vein, which infuses classical poetic expression into the contemporary space.
Challenge
Apart from the rhythmic temperament of opening, gathering and dispersing, the key point of space is the appropriateness of each component, which not only fills the space with a dignified sense of ritual, but also forms the values of human, nature, architectural space and harmony.With very short timing, survey, design and construction happened at the same time. Efficient communication and mutual trust was the key to the success of the project.
Realization and Technology
Wood finishes, cloth, stainless steel wire,metal, stone
Operation and Interaction
Designers use modern Oriental design language, integrate the relationship between time, space, nature and human, create artistic conception with Oriental temperament aesthetics, artistically express their precise grasp of life style and details, see the beauty of life in symbiosis, and see the world in an inch.
Project Duration and Location
Located in Wuhan, China,the project began in Dec 2018 and was completed in June 2019.
Specifications
This space is the hotel lobby, with a total area of 600 square meters and a height of 3.5 meters.
Keywords
