Key Moment : Facade
Inspired by the brand’s deep science related approach to the skincare products. To give energy differences between floor levels, bottom of upper floor windows are shaped into semi-circle, providing some view restrictions than the top floor windows. The first floor of facade will have the calm energy and the level will rise as the floor goes higher with no restriction on views at the top floor.
Key Moment : Public Space
Public spaces are divided into different energy levels. Entrance has the calm energy, lobby with subtle energy, lounge with active energy, and bar with full energy. To enhance this experience, lobby is kept simple in design and bar with the most design opportunities.
Key Moment : Guest Room
Hallway to the guestroom and the entrance give calm energy experience, followed by living area with subtle energy, bed area with active energy, and bathroom with full energy. Different from the public space, guestroom’s full energy happens at the place where the most rejuvenation will happen, which is the large bathroom area.
