Design Details
- Unique Properties
- In this project, the designer closely follows the theme with rich colors, woven shapes, and exquisite materials to shape an embroidery-like hotel space, allowing classical culture and modern culture to blend together in this space. The interweaving of red and green is the epitome of Chinese classical culture, and the collision and fusion of the prosperity of the market and the natural beauty.
- Inspiration
- This case uses "Jintang" itself as the starting point to explain the original meaning of "Jin". The so-called "brocade" describes the gorgeous and colorful silk threads that are as gorgeous as embroidery, which forms exquisite patterns through weaving and fusion.
- Research
- In the history of creation design, various ways of imitation as a common phenomenon run through the development process of the creation design style, and finally achieve a brand-new creation through a gradual evolution.
- Challenge
- The transformation of Chinese-style old buildings was originally a challenging task.
- Realization and Technology
- The main materials in this project are stone, wood veneer, metal, cloth, leather, glass, aluminum plate, rock plate, shell mosaic.
- Operation and Interaction
- Break the original building structure, make the original enclosed space more open, and increase the interaction between indoor and outdoor. The gathering of special materials and rich colors in the same space is also a challenge, but also an innovation and experimentation.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in May 2020 in Jiaxing and finished in January 2021 in Jiaxing.
- Specifications
