The client's desired nature for the establishment, the name selected and the Crown in its object form, all have relevance in fueling the design process. Associations related to the preciousness, lavishness, luxuriousness and enjoying the best life has to offer work with the Art Deco style chosen as the design vehicle. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Secretly sitting on the 25th floor and rooftop of the Emperor Hotel Hong Kong - The Crown is the definition of glamour and luxury. It’s your art-of-living lounge and indulgent getaway where class, music, and entertainment are all under and above the one roof. Filled with refined decor and exuberant glamour, the full floor with performance stage and velvet booths, multipurpose private rooms and rooftop terrace brings sky-high sophistication and intimate luxury straight from the 1920’s. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Once guests arrive at the establishment, they are greeted with the Main Lounge consisting of the Crown Bar, the Stage, Lounge and Velvet Booth areas. Then the Grand Hallway leads guests deeper into the establishment for even more luscious and personalised experiences.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Many challenges were required to be conquered during the construction of this hallway due to the nature and vast numbers in material selection. Several sets of templates were made on site and final fabrication was conducted at the factory. Final installation also required several attempts in fitting the curved mirrors to align with the marble pieces and the inlays. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: The site has a total area of 6000 square feet and is split into two levels. The main areas of the establishment is located on the 25th/F and a rooftop - each of 3000 square feet. TAGS: Art Deco, Restaurant, Bar, The Crown RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Research generally included the study of Art Deco design, art pieces, geometry and shapes, building materials, architecture and etc. Research of modern buildings were very important as well. To recreate the Art Deco interior with traditional materials and methods would be very time-consuming and not cost-effective. Many hours of research and meetings with material suppliers and craftsmen was undertaken to ensure the design was achievable and within budget. CHALLENGE: The design used a lot of marble, glass, and metal inlays. Especially for the curve hallway where all the material mentioned need to follow the curve. Precise measurement and preparation was very critical.
