Modern hotel lounge with warm lighting, featuring a backlit wooden display of vases, a curved sofa with pillows, mustard armchair, wooden bar, and pendant lights.
Futuristic hotel hallway with concentric wooden arches and cushioned seats, softly lit with white LED strips. Green plants at the end create a serene ambiance.

Inspired by Hangzhou’s Golden City Lantern Festival, the lighting concept moves beyond pure function to capture a sense of celebration and warmth.

A balance of linear and diffused techniques creates depth and atmosphere, while carefully positioned downlights and concealed fixtures establish a rhythmic play of light and shadow. Golden tones are accentuated throughout, immersing guests in a luminous environment that feels both contemporary and rooted in cultural tradition.
