The project is located in Suizhou City, Hubei Province, China. It is a top-notch five-star hotel that combines modern luxury and traditional culture. It is not only an important local landmark, but also a multi-functional center that brings together business, leisure and cultural exchanges.



The design of the hotel is inspired by Suizhou City's rich historical and cultural heritage and natural landscape. It combines traditional architectural elements from Hubei Province with modern luxurious design concepts. The design of the lobby is inspired by the ancient Chinese Yan Emperor culture and ancient music chimes, and is interpreted through contemporary techniques to create a quiet and elegant space atmosphere. The design of guest rooms and public areas is inspired by the natural scenery of Suizhou City, using plenty natural materials and warm colors to create a nature-like space.



The client not only wants to provide guests with a luxurious living experience, but reduces indoor energy consumption. How to meet these two requirements is a major difficulty.



In order to achieve the goal of energy saving while creating a luxurious space atmosphere, designers have adopted many methods and new technologies. For example, they have used exquisite chandelier designs and energy-saving LED light strings to create a waterfall-like effect. The walls and pillars are made of decorative panels with metallic luster. Advanced metal processing technology and materials are used to create complex patterns through fine etching and laser cutting technology. A new material called Abyss Light, which is a composite material of LED and crystal, is also used.



The hotel building adopts a green roof design, which can help the building to insulate and cool down, reduce the use of air conditioning, and also collect rainwater for irrigating plants and flushing toilets. There is a large area of double-glazed glass with good heat and sound insulation effects, and many LED lamps for outdoor lighting, which is also highly energy-saving. In an intelligent lighting system, the lights can be controlled according to time and actual needs.
