The Taikang Sanya, a Tribute Portfolio Resort is in Sanya, China. The balance of brightness and contrast of light is the main concern of this project. Creating a dim, warm and soft lighting environment can let the guests slow down and enjoy their journey.

In order to achieve the goal, fishing nets, bamboo weaving, paper lanterns and water feature are becoming the important elements for us to use and create a suitable lighting environment.

The elements of fishing nets and lanterns are turned into a 40-meter-long pendant light and became the visual center of all-day dinning. Integrated paper pendant lights provide a comfortable ambient light and accent lights provide necessary brightness for the long table. It achieves the function and aesthetic requirements.

The carefully control of the 'light box' with dimming system in the lobby represents the concept of paper lantern. During daytime, when daylight or sunlight penetrates through the ceiling, it will be attenuated and softened by the ceiling white screen. Guests can enjoy the changes of nature light during daytime. By using the dimming system with a sensor, the brightness of the paper lantern will be controlled appropriately. Even and soft light are supposed to produce a relax atmosphere and to express sincere welcome to all guests while they stay in this space.

A reflecting pool are set inside the building to create a semi-outdoor space called 'Water Courtyard'. Downlights are used to provide a low-level ambient light environment with subtle rhythm. In-ground up-lights are used to light the plants and to create vivid images by shadows on the wall. The decorative lanterns are arranged in rhythm. Three lighting elements are used to enhance the vertical vision. The reflecting pool becomes a background to reflect the different image of sky and the building façade from day to night.
