The Design

About Luxeh Diseño de interiores de hotel

Luxeh es un interior hotelero situado en la zona paisajística del Lago del Oeste, en Hangzhou, China. El diseño conserva la arquitectura original y el alzado del edificio, tal como exige su condición de sitio protegido. El espacio interior y el espacio exterior se abordan como dos sistemas independientes, de modo que las funciones comerciales y de resort contemporáneas se integran dentro de un edificio de estilo histórico. Las partes de madera deterioradas del alzado se tratan mediante un método de quemado empleado desde la dinastía Song, que carboniza la superficie y mantiene el material intacto.

In the process of designing, separated interior space and outdoor space as two system. Engineering on the basis of architectural main style of hundred years, and keeping modern resorts and commercial function in interior space.
Dimensions & Packaging

So we programmed spaces like this to wash basin or storage space. Meanwhile, ceramic decorated the walls of toilet, so the height of toilet depends on the modularization multiple of ceramic bricks to reduced material waste and keep successfully.
