生于自然、立于城市
多元文化与静谧自然的共生共存
Artist Wang Zi's work is placed in the glass room of the hotel's driveway, and this set of fireworks-inspired plant installation will not retain its perishable beauty.
The entrance to Alila Shanghai Hotel is hidden deep in the driveway on the back side of the building, which is flanked by the bustling Xingye Taigu Hui on one side and the bustling historical complex Zhang Yuan on the other. The hotel is designed by Horizontal Line Design Company, one of the representatives of Chinese contemporary design, from the hand of Ju Bin, a designer with a unique Oriental aesthetic temperament, and has become a masterpiece of Oriental aesthetic temperament created in the bustling city.
The screen next to the concierge desk in the arrival hall uses digital media projection to present a completely different space atmosphere with the change of seasons and festivals.
Open the hidden hotel door and slowly enter the hotel, the huge roll of digital art installation and the reception desk with Oriental aesthetic temperament impact our visual experience with a rich contrast. Between the sense of mysterious visit and the contrast of scale, the Oriental charm comes to our face, and the noise of the city has disappeared.
Stepping into the L floor, a modern "sky garden" leaps into view, and artist Oscar Wang's work "Tree · Gathering" stands in it. Inspired by five senses and five acts, the work reflects the purest life and art through the use of five different materials, including gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and the interlace of different materials and light and shadow.
Take the elevator to the L floor of the hotel, the eyes suddenly opened up, the first thing you see is a unique "sky garden" - changes in the path and scenery bring emotional ups and downs, according to the surprise meaning of the name "Alila" (named after the Sanskrit word "surprise"), on the huge terrace of the building, the designer created a "garden" for Alila. For the visitor artificial search, walk, ups and downs of the psychological experience.
The restaurant has an open kitchen and serves Japanese barbecue and oven-side barbecue for lunch and dinner, which brings both visual and taste buds pleasure.
The garden is based on water, and in the middle is located the art installation "Tree · Gathering", which is specially created by artist Oscar Wang and inspired by "Five senses · Five elements". The installation presents the form of a growing tree, extending upward, echoing and different from the surrounding environment, and becoming one of the visual centers of the garden. Surrounding the public areas of the hotel are Shanghai cuisine Chinese restaurant, Japanese barbecue restaurant, bar overlooking Zhang Yuan, book pavilion where you can borrow books, tea bar and tea @5TH, which are connected by a unique gallery, scattered elegant collection and restaurant private rooms, leisurely and stylish lifestyle, creating a "micro holiday" perception impression in the city center.
Combining seafood with Shanghai cuisine, the restaurant pays attention to the selection of ingredients, and the dishes are presented by chef Bao.
The 186 rooms of the hotel are distributed on floors 12-17 and 27-39 of the building, with earth colors as the base tone, mainly natural materials, Chinese color interspersed among them, and Shanghai's Shanghai style and fashion as the ornament, from natural textured glass to bold floor tiles, to a set of Shikumen inspired lighting design - many details are in response to the urban culture; The warm yellow light that slowly lights up at the entrance, the curtains that automatically rise, and the deliberate Chinese style collapse, let people not sit still, but feel immersed and relaxed again, allowing guests to find peace in the vibrant center of Shanghai.
The furniture is made of soft neutral colors, occasionally interspersed with tea green, traditional and modern blend here.
From the winding entrance on the lowest floor to the spacious courtyard on the L floor, through to the verandah, and then to the quiet and relaxing experience in the guest rooms, the designer integrates the spirit and freshness of nature into the bustling city, blends the charm of Jiangnan gardens into modern and modern, so that the interior experience of the hotel is separated from the urban atmosphere of Shanghai, and at the same time, the "surprise" characteristic of Alila is interpreted into a vivid. This gives Alila's holiday aesthetics a richer and more three-dimensional expression in the bustling city of Shanghai.
Shuttling through the various areas of the hotel, exploring the perception and impression of the garden and scale, feeling the unique Oriental charm and atmosphere, and letting people feel the tranquility and peace, this is the city vacation experience brought by Ju Bin and Alila Shanghai. This just right fluctuation and seclusion is a new dialogue between Oriental garden and contemporary modern.
建构与美学并蓄
游园的情绪、想象与气韵
The courtyard pavilion connects to Aji, surrounded by greenery, and guests can experience the hotel's signature smelling ceremony upon check-in.
In the eyes of designer Ju Bin, Alila, as a resort hotel brand advocating the connection with nature, is located in the city for the first time. How to connect culture and nature more closely is facing many challenges for designers and brands. From the arrival of the hotel, the presentation of art works, the design of the roof garden, the natural landscape cleverly interspersed in the public area, the organic crop growing area... It's all a response to "nature."
"Tree · Gathering" will focus people's attention, and cooperate with the functional scenes such as the restaurant around the atrium and the front desk. The roots return to the concept of "book", using the structure of a pictographic book to carve, shape into a tree root, and the height of the book seal can be used as a stool for people to rest. The leaves and leaves are handmade ceramics made in Jingdezhen, and the whole tree has 52 leaves, echoing the complete and beautiful blessings represented by 52 in traditional Chinese culture.
In terms of design language, "Traditional Chinese gardens will consider buildings with different functions such as pavilions, pavilions, and water pavilions in a single site, as well as the richness of the scenery that people look at from different angles; In the architectural language, there must be unity and logic, which are the essence of our traditional garden design." In the design of the hotel, Ju Bin draws on the thinking of traditional Chinese garden design, and makes its transformation and application in the contemporary sense on this basis. "We extract how it (traditional garden design) deals with the richness of nature and the unity of architecture, and more importantly, we extract the psychological changes and emotional ups and downs formed by the design of different scales during the migration process of visitors under its leadership, such as the spatial relationship between scenery, migration, expectation, observation and inhabitability."
The spa enhances the experience with five senses, combines Eastern and Western care techniques, provides personalized professional services, and can enjoy a calm and peaceful moment here.
The hotel is located in the center of the city, surrounded by large office buildings, but as an urban resort hotel, "how to create an inward-looking hotel space" was the biggest challenge faced by Jupin in the design process, he adopted some unique design techniques, "for example, in the building directly opposite the use of solid blocks, to avoid sight penetration; "In the surrounding area, metal mesh is used to create a hazy aesthetic to create an introverted courtyard experience." Let the bar face Zhang Yuan, do open treatment, also adds a layer of experience.
Looking out onto the courtyard from the organic garden.
Ju Bin also stressed that art is the eye of space, the art in the hotel and the space collision, strong form of expression, the content is consistent with the concept of the hotel, and also responds to the three indispensable elements of Shanghai, the Orient and nature.
内向探索
从自然连接到自我连接
Overlooking the distance from the Secret Roof, you can have a panoramic view of the downtown prosperity and the ancient charm of Zhangyuan complex.
Through inward exploration, Alila believes in building a strong connection with nature, with herself and others. Not just looking at the external beauty around you from afar, but really immersing yourself in it and embracing it. In the hotel, this concept is carried through as an abstract guide.
The soft lighting system in the bedroom makes people feel more calm and peaceful. Artist Ye Guocai's lacquer painting "Breaking the Siege" is placed in the middle of the wall.
In the application of materials, natural materials such as wood and textured coatings are selected, avoiding the use of industrial synthetic materials, in order to respond to the relationship between sustainable materials and nature. In the lighting design, we advocate the principle of seeing light without lights and liberating ceiling, and design according to the requirements of light in different time periods to achieve sustainable energy utilization. In addition, the hotel has partnered with NESPRESSO to reuse coffee grounds, introduced a food management system to reduce waste, adopted a Nordaq-branded canned water system and used eco-friendly room cards, and continued the practice of using spare items in large bottles to reduce resource waste.
From the entrance of the elegant suite to the grooming space, the bold color of the floor tiles echoes the "Shanghai style".
When the night is falling, the office buildings around are lit up, the lights in the hotel garden are also slowly lit up, and the restaurant presents another scene against the water surface in the garden, which then reflects the unique charm of Shanghai. The flickering lights of the art installation "Tree · Gathering" are more and more obvious under the night, like growing in general, showing the vitality of nature in this corner of the city.
