10 DESIGN

​

​

This boutique hotel is part of the overall commercial complex situated in Zhuhai. Summer
International Group commissioned Paring Onions to generate the concept for the hotel. The
design reflects the holistic nature of the development with the use of strong streamlines and
whimsical elements in the hotel lobby and public spaces.
The moulded ceiling emphasized the height of the lobby, suggesting a sense of surrealism with
a creative separation of the different zones in the lobby. A ‘water-lounge’ is proposed on one
side of the lobby as a continuation to the external landscape water feature, with island seating
added to accentuate the whimsical experience to its visitors.
