Kaohsiung city hotel,THE LEES HOTEL,Kaohsiung

The Lees Hotel  -The company’s core culture is based on the artistic persistence and the corporate governance of the founder Dr. Lee Deng Mu; with a background in arts, architecture and business, Dr. Lee uses his natural acuity for business management and arts and culture and established a five star hotel complete with humanities, services, aesthetics, and facilities. The aim of the hotel is to treat the guests with honor. Also, by creating a living space full of aesthetic and cultural ambience, guests can easily encounter antiques, paintings and other art works in the lobby, hallways, or other unexpected places. 

The aesthetic of the building 

The design of the building is based on the Chinese character “zun”, which in ancient times refers to the utensil the emperor uses to drink wine. By using the shape of the word as an exterior design expresses the company’s respect towards guests and staffs. The building material uses granite panels to express a sense of honor, glory and generosity. The main wall is Italian styled with four different colors of imported pearl mosaic panels and shifts color under different angles of sunlight.

The aesthetic of the spaces

The lobby is presented with the simple and modest modern new classical and decoration art styles. The overall design uses marble floors and maple wood integrated with indirect lightings along with a collection of many art works. The ten meter high ceiling atrium uses metal and glass to design a large modernistic overhead art piece, echoing with the restaurants on the second floor. The abstract paintings painted by the founder Dr. Lee Deng Mu are hanged on the lobby walls, adding a spacious and imposing ambience to the lobby.
