HUI Hotel Interior Design

Located in the most commercial zone of Shenzhen, this boutique hotel with natural, mysterious and elegant sense was designed and transformed from an old dilapidated factory. The whole hotel covers only 8,800 square meters. In order to insure a comfortable sensation when living in this space, the hotel has only 85 rooms, and even the smallest room occupies 50 square meters. Different from other 5-star hotels luxury style, HUI HOTEL emphasizes cultural expression and presentation.

As one of the most symbolic characters in Chinese traditional culture, the ancient character of “HUI” is like a vortex current, which means “return.” Ancient Chinese philosopher Xun Zi used to say: “River convolutes when going deep.” According to Chinese traditional humanistic sensibilities, “Hui” presents also the most basic inner aspiration. No matter how long have we been outside, we all want to go back home and back to our initial selves. So, this hotel has taken “HUI” as his name and design inspiration, putting urban life back to the original state, letting nature enter city, embrace love at home, so that all kinds of sensation could recover in this art space. 

Mainly inspired by new-oriental culture, the hotel combines Chinese and western furniture style and a way of decorating, smartly decorated by some Chinese contemporary artworks, which presents a whole quiet, natural and oriental aesthetics atmosphere. The lobby is designed with a green wall full of plants, aligned with birdcages so as to wipe off the complex elements of space.

Some space on the sixth floor and podium has been built with an indoor sunk-courtyard landscape that opens to a reading room, so guests can indulge themselves in this natural elegant environment. Hotel’s Chinese restaurant “YUE SE” is inspired by Lingnan (south of the Five Ridges) culture. New Chinese style associated with outdoor waterscape, giving an aesthetic touch. Western restaurant is located on top floor with a great view of central park. The book bar has a street frontage but without window, which avoids the noise and dust influence. The inner sight, calm stream and green war combined with reading room’s cultural display, an ideal place for reading.
