The Design
About Grand Overture Viesmīlības zāle
Grand Overture ir aptuveni 1000 kvadrātmetru liela viesmīlības zāle Šanhajā, Ķīnā. Arkveida struktūras vada gaismas un ēnu plūsmu vairākos līmeņos. Gaiši balts akmens, zemes toņu koks un metāliski akcenti veido faktūras un siltuma slāņus. Art Deco stila akmens inkrustācijas raksti un skujiņas rakstā ieklāts akmens grīdas segums atsaucas uz reģiona vēsturiskajiem tirdzniecības namiem. Izliektas kāpnes ved apmeklētājus augšup, un lifta vestibilā atrodas vintāžas stāvu rādītāji. Klasiskās arkas un baroka līknes ir pārinterpretētas, izmantojot mūsdienīgu ģeometrisku pieeju.
