Hong Guang: A Modern and Artistic Hotel Design

Combining Chinese Classical Gardens with Contemporary Aesthetics

Inspired by Chinese classical gardens and combined with staggered artistic techniques, the Hong Guang hotel design by Lichen Ding creates a magnificent and elegant atmosphere. This design integrates Oriental life philosophy and art into contemporary spaces, resulting in a profound and unique expression of the contemporary Oriental temperament.

With the traditional courtyard three-way hierarchical relationship as the design concept, the Hong Guang hotel lobby, aisle, and lobby bar each have their own distinct place, while also creating a harmonious three-hall-in-one state. The gray space divided by lines on both sides of the corridor adds depth and clarity to the dense large and medium spaces. This design showcases the step-by-step interest found in oriental aesthetics and creates a quiet yet dynamic atmosphere.

The Hong Guang hotel design utilizes wood finishes, cloth, stainless steel wire, metal, and stone to bring the concept to life. The hotel lobby spans 600 square meters with a height of 3.5 meters, providing a spacious and grand entrance for guests.

Using modern Oriental design language, the designers of Hong Guang integrate the relationship between time, space, nature, and humanity. They artistically express their precise grasp of lifestyle and details, capturing the beauty of life in symbiosis and revealing the world in every inch.

The Hong Guang hotel design is located in Wuhan, China, and the project began in December 2018, reaching completion in June 2019. Throughout the design process, the team faced the challenge of creating a space that not only exuded a rhythmic temperament but also maintained the appropriateness of each component. The result is a space filled with a dignified sense of ritual and harmony between human, nature, and architectural space.

This modern and artistic hotel design has been recognized for its excellence and creativity. It was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Interior Space, Retail, and Exhibition Design category in 2020. This prestigious award honors designs that exhibit strong technical and creative skills, contributing to improvements in quality of life and making the world a better place.

Step into the Hong Guang hotel and experience the charm of contemporary design language infused with the logic of Oriental aesthetics. This design will captivate you from the moment you enter, showcasing the enchanting changes that await within.
