About Zenstay 부티크 호텔
젠스테이(Zenstay)는 중국 저우산 둥지섬에 자리한 부티크 호텔이다. 이 프로젝트는 언덕 비탈에 있던 기존 석조 주택을 재건축한 것이다. 지역의 주거 형식과 자연스러운 질감이 설계의 방향을 이끌었다. 기존의 석재와 목재 구조를 보존하고, 새로 더한 흰색 매스가 분리되어 있던 공용 공간들을 연결한다. 아트리움과 계단이 옛것과 새것을 이어준다. 재료로는 콘크리트, 지역산 다듬돌, 오래된 낙엽송 목재, 재사용한 회색 기와, 스투코가 사용되었다. 호텔은 바다 전망의 객실 9개와 레스토랑, 바, 회의실, 전망 데크를 갖추고 있다.

While preserving the original structure to the largest extent, novel white blocks were inserted to establish continuity between detached public spaces. At the same time, atrium and staircase offered a smooth transition between the old and new and with a purpose to strengthen the harmonious and stable of the place.

- Structure: Original stone-timber structure, Frame structure.
Material: Concrete, Local ashlar, Red block, Old Larch wood, Used grey tiles, Stucco, Soil stabilizer.
Construction team: Local Builders. - Design Challenge
- In the process, there were series of difficulties overcame by folk wisdom and design strategy on the islands far away from the mainland without large construction machinery and vehicles. The concrete was poured by terrain and gravity, after transported to the top of the hillside by human and animal power. Trying to keep the traditional houses details and unique living experience, we combined modern materials with local craft as well. For example, the original style of the ashlar wall was put back to normal by soil stabilizer and loess. We had to face bad weather and goods shortage where could be more difficult than on the mainland.
- Research
- Thanks to the project, we explored the traditional stone house in island to construct skills as an appropriate technology (low tech), regional cultural of reference, its interventional reconstruction of the possibility and its sustainable idea of the necessity and reflection. By the protection of the original fabric and the innovation of the new format, we turned the old stone house of the rural island into a rebirth.
- Inspiration
- Zenstay Boutique Hotel is the ideal home for a post-80s couple on Dongji Island, the eastern end of mainland China, a original stone house on a hillside. Watching tides rise and fall, weathered by time and elements, stone houses create the rustic island culture and the beauty of years. The "local dwelling" and "natural texture" were the entry points for the design.
- Project Duration
- The project started in April 2017 in Dongji Island, Zhoushan and finished in February 2019.
- Operation Flow
- In fact, most border islands have two sides of extremes — the cultural enclaves locked in the past and the hot spots for literary youth. Natural, traditional or fashion, postmodern would be conflicting and symbiotic. The design of Zenstay Boutique Hotel has both traditional and novel aspects as well, trying to cater the functional and scene requirements from its two aspects with a sincere and simple attitude.
