LiHao Hotel

Golden A' Design Award Winner 2020

Liang Fang's LiHao Hotel exemplifies the sophisticated synthesis of traditional aesthetic philosophies with contemporary spatial design that characterizes the most accomplished hospitality interiors of the present era. The lobby space functions as a threshold between exterior world and interior sanctuary, employing architectural strategies rooted in classical principles of axial organization, hierarchical progression, and the careful orchestration of natural materials to establish atmosphere and meaning. The designer demonstrates particular sensitivity to the dialogue between organic form and geometric order, positioning a sculptural bonsai specimen at the compositional heart where it serves as living embodiment of patient cultivation, harmonious growth, and the philosophical ideals of finding nature's essence through careful tending. The suspended ceiling installation represents a remarkable technical achievement, with hundreds of amber-tinted elements arranged in sweeping formations that evoke traditional architectural roof forms while creating an ethereal contemporary presence through their apparent weightlessness and luminous quality. Display niches integrated within the timber battens showcase ceramic vessels and objects that reference scholarly traditions of connoisseurship and material appreciation, transforming functional storage into curatorial statement. The landscape murals glimpsed through glazed partitions extend spatial perception beyond immediate boundaries while introducing narrative content suggesting mountain wilderness and natural grandeur. Material selections reveal careful consideration of tactile experience alongside visual effect, with polished stone flooring cool beneath foot contrasting against warm wood surfaces that invite touch. One might consider how such spaces shape the psychology of arrival, transforming the functional necessity of reception into opportunity for contemplation, transition, and preparation for the experiences to follow.

Return to nature, the city's cultural station. Create a refined lifestyle. Exclusively enjoy a quiet and quiet. The hotel is located in the bustling area of Baoding High-tech Development Zone. The designer redefines the city resort hotel by holistic thinking through re-combing the surrounding environment, architecture, landscape and interior to create a sophisticated, natural and comfortable hotel space. Let business travelers feel prosperous in the quiet, stealing a half-day leisure.
