About YS Retreat Hotela Interna Dezajno

YS Retreat estas hotela interno situanta en monta vilaĝo en Tibeto, Ĉinio. La dezajno kombinas la stilojn Han kaj tibetan, uzante tibetajn elementojn kiel fonon anstataŭ kiel ĉefan temon. Videblaj dezajnaj gestoj estas limigitaj al minimumo, lasante la naturon, la pejzaĝon kaj la spacon al la gastoj. Grandaj fenestroj de planko ĝis plafono malfermas la ĉambrojn al neĝkovritaj montoj kaj lagoj. Mikrocemento kovras la murojn, kaj originala ligno estas uzata kun malmulta ornamado. Malnova kontraŭputra ligno estis polurita kaj reuzita. La interno celas subteni ripozon kaj kvietan meditadon.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: The fusion of Han and Tibetan styles, together with the complementarity of commercial value and architectural aesthetics, are the keys to the project.
They subtly integrated modern civilization and traditional culture, taking the Tibetan elements as the background instead of the main theme. The hotel space is intended to allow for mental relaxation, visual purification and spiritual meditation.
Dimensions & Packaging: Architectures in the hotel's surroundings are tall and present a distinctive Tibetan style. The unique Tibetan architectural elements, such as dougong (interlocking brackets), upturned eaves, carved beams, paintings, crude stone walls, and brass components, reflect the prosperity of Tibetan culture and art.
Tags: Nature, Tibetan elements, perception of the surroundings, spiritual purification, elegance, philosophy of a natural and casual life
Production Technology: The glass was insulated and strengthened, so as the snow load of the roof. The surface of the natural stones was painted with a protective layer. Old anti-corrosion wood was polished and reused. Outdoor wood wall panels were carbonized. Micro-cement was used as the main coating for walls. Original wood, not overly decorated, was utilized as a main material. Through a carbonization process, the wood panels become more oxidation-and weather-resistant and meanwhile reflect a rustic Tibetan style.
Design Challenge: The project is situated in the Guxiang quarter in Bomi County. Due to the complicated topology, most of the raw materials had to be transported from the mainland via varying difficult trains to the site. This increased the transportation cost. In addition, all construction workers are local people, so the construction techniques can hardly be compared with those in inland regions. Moreover, the Galang Palace stands on a mountain platform connected by winding roads, forbidding large-scale construction.
Research: The design team needed to not only work out a creative design scheme, but also to communicate, organize and coordinate with local construction teams, so as to realize the design scheme to the greatest extent possible with locally available technology, materials and a controllable budget.
They expect a trip of spiritual purification, hoping to return to the real self and escape from the secular world. The design team applied the idea of "less is more".
Inspiration: Occupying a blessed site with snow-capped mountains and lakes outside the windows, the hotel shows a reverence for nature and conceals itself in the scene in the most unpretentious way.
Hidden in this paradise, the YS Retreat is designed with the philosophy of "veiled serenity". Surrounded by mountains, the hotel is naturally integrated with the environment. Traces of design are minimized in the interior, leaving nature, scenery and space to the guests.
Project Duration: The project started in September 2021 and finished in August 2022 in Galang Village, Guxiang, Bomi, Tibet Autonomous Region, China.
Operation Flow: By refraining from over-emphasis on design, the hotel leaves the guests' emotions undisturbed. The project applied simplistic design expressions, and incorporated an elegant temperament and easygoing philosophy of life into the hotel. The architectural space and furnishings bring a unique atmosphere and warmth.
Complete, abundant functions are configured with a free spatial pattern. The large floor-to-ceiling glass windows stimulate the interaction between people and nature.
