About Whytime Shantou Design d'interni per hotel
Whytime Shantou è un progetto di interni alberghieri situato a Shantou, in Cina. Il progetto conserva la storica facciata Qilou e riconverte l'edificio a uso ricettivo su una superficie di 2225 metri quadrati. Un atrio luminoso a tutta altezza migliora l'illuminazione naturale e la ventilazione, guidando i percorsi all'interno degli spazi. Elementi tradizionali come le arcate Qilou e le giunche dalle punte rosse vengono astratti in chiave moderna e minimalista. I materiali comprendono mattone rosso locale, terrazzo alla veneziana, travertino e madreperla. Il Tea Route Trail si trasforma nel corso della giornata da sala per la colazione a caffetteria e bar.

- Production Technology
- The design integrates modern and sustainable construction techniques, including a "Light Atrium" to improve ventilation and lighting in the preserved Qilou structure. Key materials such as local red brick, terrazzo, and imported mother of pearl are used to blend aesthetics with environmental responsibility. The deconstruction of traditional elements like Qilou arches is achieved through sculptural precision, combining modern functionality with cultural significance.
- Design Challenge
- The main challenge was balancing the preservation of the historic Qilou facade with modern hotel amenities. The design also avoided cliched representations of Overseas Chinese culture by abstracting traditional elements, ensuring a fresh and unique experience. This was achieved through innovative spatial solutions that also foster community engagement, creating dynamic, adaptable spaces.
- Research
- Research focused on integrating Shantou's cultural history with modern hotel needs. Methods included studying local architecture, interviewing residents, and observing guest behavior. The design combines cultural heritage with contemporary functionality, creating a space that connects guests with the local community while respecting the original architecture.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the rich heritage of Shantou's Xiaogongyuan historic district and the memories of Overseas Chinese culture, the project reflects the essence of traditional elements like Qilou arcades and Red-Tipped Junks. The design avoids retro stylization, instead focusing on abstracting these symbols through a modern, minimalist approach to evoke a fresh narrative dialogue between past and present, offering an innovative interpretation of local cultural identity.
- Project Duration
- The project started in January 2024 and finished in July 2025 in China.
- Operation Flow
- The design fosters fluid movement through spaces, with areas like the "Tea Route Trail" changing throughout the day to cater to different functions. The guest experience unfolds from the "Returning Sails" to the "Red Junk Harbor" and "Tea Route Trail," creating an immersive cultural journey. The "Light Atrium" acts as a central hub, guiding visitors and enhancing the spatial experience.
