Unique Properties: Secretly sitting on the 25th floor and rooftop of the Emperor
Hotel Hong Kong - The Crown is the definition of glamour
and luxury.
It’s your art-of-living lounge and indulgent getaway where
class, music, and entertainment are all under and above the
one roof.
Filled with refined decor and exuberant glamour, the full floor
with performance stage and velvet booths, multipurpose
private rooms and rooftop terrace brings sky-high
sophistication and intimate luxury straight from the 1920’s.
Dimensions & Packaging: The site has a total area of 6000 square feet and is split into two levels.

The main areas of the establishment is located on the 25th/F and a rooftop - each of 3000 square feet.
Tags: Art Deco, Restaurant, Bar, The Crown
Production Technology: Many challenges were required to be conquered during
the construction of this hallway due to the nature and vast
numbers in material selection.

Several sets of templates were made on site and final
fabrication was conducted at the factory.

Final installation also required several attempts in fitting the
curved mirrors to align with the marble pieces and the inlays.
Design Challenge: The design used a lot of marble, glass, and metal inlays.

Especially for the curve hallway where all the material mentioned need to follow the curve.

Precise measurement and preparation was very critical.
Research: Research generally included the study of Art Deco design, art pieces, geometry and shapes, building materials, architecture and etc.

Research of modern buildings were very important as well.

To recreate the Art Deco interior with traditional materials and methods would be very time-consuming and not cost-effective.

Many hours of research and meetings with material suppliers and craftsmen was undertaken to ensure the design was achievable and within budget.
Inspiration: Name, establishment nature, and an intuitive relatedness
across desired characteristics and connotations was the
inspiration that sparked and fuelled the design process.
The client's desired nature for the establishment, the name selected and the Crown in its object form, all have relevance in fueling the design process.
Associations related to the preciousness, lavishness, luxuriousness and enjoying the best life has to offer work with the Art Deco style chosen as the design vehicle.
Project Duration: Started in November 2018 and completed in August 2019
Operation Flow: Once guests arrive at the establishment, they are greeted with the Main
Lounge consisting of the Crown Bar, the Stage, Lounge and Velvet Booth areas. Then the Grand Hallway leads guests deeper into the establishment for even more luscious and personalised experiences.

Guests can find their perfect spot at the Balcony for a skyline view or sit back at the Velvet Booths for performances.

A more tranquil setting can be found on the Rooftop and for extra privacy, VIP Rooms are also available.
