A clean glass curtain door hides the interior and the light passes through it. The entrance is greeted by a harmonious picture of nature and technology.
The full-height ceiling and the slender lobby space show the dignified elegance. The smooth black marble covers the floor of the whole lobby whose overall line is clear and simple. The simple black and white colors show a strong momentum through the collision of different materials.
The stone texture of the ceiling is like the mottled water mark left by the wave, which has a natural and classical solemn atmosphere. The cold and hard material is polished into a smooth and watery arc state through segmentation and re-splicing. The soft arc surface forever the surging posture of wave rather than being the chill of the inherent order of space and architecture.
The elevator hall is surrounded by smooth ivory porcelain stone whose rounded surface shows a bright texture soaked by water and light. Matte metal constitutes the facade of the elevator hall, with the technology intelligent entrance being soothing and gentle, creating a business atmosphere with a sense of quality and luxury.
The elevator car continues the theme of the wave and the ground is laid with black luxury stones. Scattered white stripes interpret the dripping scene of the beach and reef after the wave fades. The leather and wood decoration with natural wild atmosphere deeply show the diversified urban colors of Hangzhou as a historically old and new city.
As a new office building in Hangzhou, the Wisdom Tower is an open and inclusive field, which is similar to the flexible and inclusive characteristics of water. The design team extracts its rich and changeable form and integrates it into the 60-floor space design.
The lobby is circular, where the matte gold metal reflects light and the ceiling seems to be scattered tranquil ripples. "Water" sets suitable pace for our life.
When tide rises and falls, water shows different shape. The design team creates a new geometric figure for installation by extracting the abstract elements and reshaping them.
A flat matte long wooden table and a few creamy white tea chairs make the atmosphere calm and collected. Seemingly unintentional decoration can easily present the space’s professional, business theme, which can be seen from its extremely smooth lines, delicate leather texture, the deep ebony, and a touch of gold glory in the corner, to name just a few.
The sofa cushion retains its cut surface, echoing the entire design. Besides, the space follows the Oriental concept of square and round by adding curved details on leather. The ivory tables and chairs reflect the elegance of Greek art. The space reminds its users of the life off river. Based on the shape of cast fishing net, the chandelier considers modern aesthetic and uses hard metal as well as soft thread.
