The Ho
Hotel for HYH Architects
The original dome in the space is embellished with transparent linear tassels. The rounded shape mirrors the art installation at the entrance below, which is a highlight. In between the mezzanine levels, the design team skillfully laid out the grayscale tones to show the vivid contrast of visual changes in light and shadow. In the meantime, the mirrors light up the modern style, with the marble and curved shapes creating a streamlined imagery. Both businesspeople and tourists can enjoy the well-planned and perfect function in this place.

Unique Properties
Even though it is a renovation project, they still put people as the core consideration, which is also the aesthetic pursuit of the project. The theme is gray. The various layers of gray in the lobby stairs, flooring, corridors, and furnishings are all impressive. At the same time, the design team retains the natural lighting advantage of the site, so that the tone of the space can reach the perfect balance. Different from ordinary hotels, the project is targeted at businesspeople, providing more working space for individual meetings or group consultations.

Production Technology
Marble, linear lighting, ceiling molding design, light steel frame trims, achromatic color (black, white, and gray), laminate hard plastic sheet, black mirror, artificial stone. The renovation reveals a new style through the renewal of building materials. The design team reversed the look of the original space, redefining the old hotel and creating a more functional and aesthetic experience.
Design Challenge
This project is a renovation. Since the commercial orientation of the site is different from the previous one, the design team optimized the functionality and created a professional design that is more conducive to the local customers, replacing the previous slightly baroque and fancy style with a functional look. The renovation process required more time to confirm the fire protection settings. The design team had to recheck all the fire safety regulations, update and adjust them, and last but not least, the aesthetics.
Project Duration
The project finished in February 2022 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow
Formal or casual, the project has a neutral and modern concept. The design team re-examined the location to create a space that meets the needs of the customers. The lobby on the first floor includes office space for individuals, a multi-person forum, and a sofa lounge. With its high ceiling, the design team introduced bright natural lighting and installed adjustable LED lights at the seats to provide a comfortable experience for customers to relax and work.
Research
The project is a renovation of a hotel taken over by the second generation. The theme of the interior is gray, supplemented by curved shapes to reverse the impression of the old space. Secondly, the efficiency function for businesspeople is taken into consideration. The design team planned several working areas, including individual work areas and group meeting areas. Mirrors, linear lighting, and grayscale highlight the modern atmosphere. While successfully reversing the brand image, the hotel has also become the first choice for local businesspeople and international travelers to work and relax.
Inspiration
The linear ceiling and the staggered design on the walls intertwine a circular base of the lobby. The lobby is like a globe, wrapped in horizontal and vertical lines. The longitudinal and latitudinal imagery represents the optimization of international and commercialized space. The hotel welcomes every visitor from all over the world with a new look.
