The Beauty of Light

Redefined Beauty Centre in Hong Kong

Rich spatial experiences and the interplay of light and time are the defining features of The Beauty of Light. Upon entering the space through a cavernous arch tunnel, visitors are greeted with strategically designed lighting features that give the space a unique identity. Diffuse lighting and curvy partitions guide customers through the center, creating a sense of discovery and enchantment. Each treatment room is thoughtfully designed with its own lighting features, enhancing the customer's experience and adding to the diversity of the space.

The realization of this design is made possible through advanced lighting technology. The use of dimmable LED light strips in each beauty room allows for different lighting settings to match various treatments and create a soothing ambiance for relaxation. Textured painting and glass surfaces further enhance the lighting effect, adding depth and visual interest to the space.

The Beauty of Light occupies a compact 97 square meter interior space within a modern office tower. Despite its limited size, the design team has managed to accommodate seven treatment rooms, a makeup zone, an elegant waiting area, a linear tunnel entrance, and a back-of-house area in a human-scale manner. The reception area, located at the center of the space, provides a direct visual connection for management and supervision, utilizing a large curtain wall as a backdrop.

The project, which began in September 2021 and was completed in November 2021, posed several creative and technical challenges. The design team had to carefully study the possibilities of creating a spatial experience that seamlessly integrates fluidity, rhythm, curves, and lighting. The result is a harmonious fusion of light, nature, and interior gestures, creating a truly unique and immersive environment.

The Beauty of Light has been recognized for its outstanding design and creativity. It was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Interior Space, Retail, and Exhibition Design category in 2022. This prestigious accolade is bestowed upon designs that demonstrate exceptional artistry, resourcefulness, and technical skill. The Beauty of Light exemplifies the best practices in art, science, design, and technology, contributing to the improvement of quality of life and making the world a better place.
