寻隐之体验
THE EXPERIENCE

这座精品酒店以低调的姿态座落于香港天后，与铜锣湾只是一园之隔，既远离商业购物区的热闹烦嚣，又享信步之遥的便利。其所在地本身是个地道香港社区，邻近有各式小餐馆、菜市场、旧区建筑、庙宇，以及电车路沿途的港岛景观，尽见香港本土气息的一面。这酒店旨在提供一个与别不同的宁静世界，旅客甫抵埗、穿过大门，便能暂时忘却周遭环境与生活的喧嚣。

从出发前接触的官方网站、社交媒体专页，至到埗后的空间发现与留宿，整个酒店体验潜藏散发着酒店理念背后的美学与诗意──一种需要用心发掘和感受的隐约含蓄之美。

This boutique hotel quietly dwells in a local neighbourhood that enjoys moderate distance yet convenience to the bustling CBD while offering an authentic Hong Kong experience with local eateries, market, old buildings, temples and scenery of the Hong Kong Island along the tramways. The hotel is intended to be a getaway from the hustles of the surrounding and the chaos of life. It is a world of tranquillity upon the travellers’ arrival and entry into the space.

The entire hotel experience, from the official website, social media, to the spatial discovery and stay, embodies and manifests the aesthetics and poetics underlying the philosophy of the hotel, which is a kind of hidden beauty to be discovered and appreciated with one’s heart and mind.

稀有，在于细致入微
REFINEMENT

这家精品酒店的创办人希望以稀有的特质令其酒店别树一帜。为此，我们重新审视「稀有」的意义。我们觉得「豪华」这个词语现在已经变得媚俗，所以我们摒弃以高昂或异国特色的家具、物料建造一座豪华酒店。反之，这家酒店的稀有之处在于其「细致入微」──一种超越表象的美。

物料的质感代表着各种各样的特性，组合起来就成为我们这个设计作品的性格。我们选用了一系列比较常见的材质，如混凝土、黑铁、黄铜、橡木、夹丝玻璃等，难度在于如何发挥它们自然的美态和释放设计的可能性。我们的方法是透过光线调度和运用特别手法处理物料表面，发掘纹理的可塑性。

The client would like to differentiate this boutique hotel by rarity. Endorsing an alternative understanding of rarity, we refrain from using the most exotic and expensive materials or furniture to create a luxurious hotel, because we feel that the term “luxury” has much been vulgarized nowadays. Rather, we prefer “refinement”, another way of beauty which goes beyond the surface.

Textures of materials represent a variety of traits. The combination of them shapes the character of our design. For this hotel, we choose to use relatively common materials such as concrete, mild steel, brass, oak and wired glass. The challenge is to enhance the materials’ natural beauty and unleash design possibilities. We do so by exploring material textures with surface treatment techniques, and by use of lighting.

光与细节，揭示隐约含蓄的美
UNVEILING HIDDEN BEAUTY WITH LIGHTING AND DETAILS

光，是一种人类共通的设计语言，能牵动人心，引发共鸣，超越语言，无分国界。不论是自然光或是人工照明，都有助展现材质的特征、揭示纹理，或透亮反映，或掩蔽投影。在接待大堂里，白色大理石蜿蜒的天然纹路，与隔断墙身投射出的光影相间，交织出跃动淋漓的构图。而在入口走道的玻璃纤维强化水泥(GRC)预制墙体，其错综的接合与细密的轮廓只有在地面泛出的光线映照下才昭然可见。

态度，是指我们的细部设计所蕴含的意念、手艺与性格。这座酒店所有的外露细部都是我们特别为此项目专门设计，每个角落都体现这酒店的细致入微。方寸之间尽见手工的痕迹，不经意地流露每个细节的品性，纪录着它们的制作过程，并在与周遭材质和使用者的互动之中留下印记。就如接待柜台和洗手间的黄铜表面，使用的部分在日常接触的打磨下变得光洁如镜，其他的范围则因为不常触摸而氧化，在摩挲与荒芜之间慢慢勾勒出深刻的图案。整套细部，小至一个挂钩、一个门顶，都是为酒店量身订造的专属设计，我们希望以此表达酒店的体贴与细腻。

Light is a universal design language that is able to induce emotional resonance in travellers of all cultures and genders. Either natural or artificial, it is the medium that allows materials to express their special qualities: to reveal textures, to shine, to cast shadows. In the reception lobby, the white marble’s natural curved grains merge with the partition’s striped shadows to produce a vibrant composition. And for the precast GRC (glass-reinforced concrete) wall in the entrance corridor, its nuanced seams and contour only becomes visible with the uplighting from the skirting.

Throughout the hotel there embedded an attitude – the thoughts, artistry and characters underlying our detail designs. We have custom-designed all exposed details as the embodiment of refinement, our approach to “rarity”. In each detail there are traces of craftsmanship, quietly telling a story of themselves, about their attributes, how they were made and how they interact with each other, or with people they come across. This can be seen in the brass surfaces for the reception counter and the washroom. They partially shine like a mirror due to everyday touches and polishes, while the rest of the surfaces, scarcely utilized, are left to oxidize. The strokes of human touch gradually become a natural imprint of patterns. By exclusively formulating and crafting a complete set of special-designed details – even as tiny as a hook or door stop – we intend to convey the hotel’s attentiveness and refinement.

逐步揭开的发现之旅
JOURNEY OF UNFOLDMENT

整个设计不论在实体或心理层面上都可以说是静待旅客逐步揭开的旅程。进入一个空间犹如打开一扇门。这个开启、发现的仪式，是惊喜的一瞬、情感的萌发。我们为这个酒店探索之旅创造了一连串引人入胜的场景：从旅客到达酒店，穿过大门进入深邃的走廊，搭乘升降机来到接待大堂，然后是透澈明亮的客房楼层。一幕幕的惊喜引领旅客到达这个旅程的目的地──房间。进门但见一个盒子伫立在中心，掀开后却是收藏着精美小馔和用品的柜子和书桌。旅客把每个空间与细节层层揭开，逐步领略酒店的缜密心思与含蓄美学，令这个旅居经验充满意想不到的发现。

我们希望透过严谨的设计，呈现酒店独一无二的气质与风度，为旅客带来发现的乐趣，以源源不绝的惊喜与感受塑造难忘的酒店住宿经验。

The entire design can be described as a journey of unfoldment in both physical and psychological senses. Entry into a space can be likened to opening of a door. This ritual of disclosure is a moment of surprise, an emergence of emotions. For this journey of hotel exploration, we have created a sequence of fantastical scenes, starting from the patrons’ arrival, through the entrance gate into the solemn corridor; via the lift, to the reception lobby, and the tranquil room-level lift lobby. Such choreography of spatial surprises prepares the patrons for the room, the destination. The room appears empty at first, with a box standing in the centre stage of the vacancy. As the patrons unfold this box, it turns out to be a desk and cabinet housing different accessories. By unfolding the spaces and details layer by layer, the patrons will be able to discover the hotel’s refinement and hidden beauty, making the sojourn an experience of serendipities.

The series of fortuitous revelations appeals to the conscious and subconscious, with each detail ingraining the hotel’s distinctive touch and aura. By the meticulous arrangement of design elements, we hope to invoke a sense of discovery, to create a memorable hotel experience with undulating waves of feelings, ripples of delight.
