Narada Resort

Spa for Gold Mantis

This project used the European missionaries a hundred years ago as the entry point. Its original intention is to immerse people in the hotel space, indulge in the romantic scenery of the cascading, taste the sings of Eastern and Western cultures. The collision of Chinese and Western cultures combines mountains, seas and roads. Designers use matte mountain wood veneer, water-grain glass, natural stone, hemp wall cloth and matt metal, trying to create an interior space that echoes the local natural style and fits with humanistic thinking.

Design Challenge

European-style architecture blending traditional Taoist culture is a challenge. Designers have come here through a large amount of information from European missionaries who came to the sea a hundred years ago. From his perspective, the fusion of the twelve scenic spots and the Taoist culture is the western ideal. Use the European method to enlarge the local characteristics, and combine Chinese and Western.

Project Duration

The project started in July 2019 in Qingdao and finished in January 2020 in Qingdao.

Operation Flow

The interior main space continues the European language, supplemented by Chinese style and local traditional folk culture, and this vast chapter is written in the way of fusion of things.

Research

Europeans have left many European-style buildings in Qingdao, especially German-style buildings, which is also an important part of the city's modern and contemporary architectural art landscape. These buildings reflect the aesthetics of European modern architectural art and play a leading role in the modern Qingdao City.

Inspiration

Their original intention is to immerse people in the hotel space, indulge in the romantic scenery of the cascading, taste the sings of Eastern and Western cultures, like washing themselves in the heavens and the earth, and feel the traditional culture from the local characteristics such as Lushan, Huanghai and Taoism. The fusion of European thought and the search for a balance between man and sea. Advocating nature, returning to nature, health and wellness, this may be the meaning of life.
