About The Crown Setustofa

The Crown er setustofa á 25. hæð og þaki hótels í Hong Kong. Innréttingin nær yfir 6000 ferfet á tveimur hæðum, hver um sig 3000 ferfet. Aðalhæðin hýsir bar, sviðspall, setustofu og flauelsbása. Bogadreginn stórfenglegur gangur leiðir að einkaherbergjum og að svölum með útsýni yfir borgarlínuna. Þaksvölin bjóða upp á rólegra umhverfi. Hönnunin fylgir Art Deco stílnum og nýtir marmara, gler og málmígreypingar. Bogadregnir speglar voru settir upp til að samræmast marmarabútunum og ígreypingunum.

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.
