Chengdu is a city with abundant street life. In order to response to the local street lifestyle, the design turns the public space of the hotel into a trajectory mimicking the vibrant street lifestlyle that can be easily found in the surrounding neiborhood. With the built-in seating bench on the front façade, the street front invites guest and public gathering in front of the hotel.The newly designed facade echoes the granduer of the local traditional architecture imposing an order and dicsipline to the existing urban fabric. Contrasting to the exterior, the interior of the hotel reflects the funky and dynamic cultural influence of the city by applying multiple industrial material.
Located at the heart of Chengdu’s commercial district, the newly refurbished boutique hotel consists of 30 guestrooms and diverse public programs including a local food take out store, a cafe, a wisky bar and a DJ station which converts the public dining space into a night club at night.
