The Design

About Wolo Desain Interior Hotel

Wolo adalah sebuah hotel yang terletak di Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Desain interiornya mencerminkan budaya Malaysia dan nilai-nilai merek Wolo dengan cara yang kontemporer dan berani. Sejarah Kuala Lumpur menjadi tema utama. Meja resepsionis dan gagang pintu masuk utama dibuat dengan tangan serta difinishing menggunakan pewter khusus, mengingatkan pada panjangnya sejarah produksi pewter di kota ini. Topografi berlapis dari ladang-ladang pertambangan setempat digunakan sebagai pola untuk karpet koridor, lampu gantung plafon, dan cermin kamar. Sebuah dinding aksen di lobi merujuk pada makna nama kota tersebut, yaitu pertemuan sungai berlumpur.

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.
