桐庐康莱德酒店

桐庐康莱德有着避世度假酒店必备的自然环境优势，这似乎可以成为照明表现的重点。但是，一个被照射的很漂亮的对象可以满足我们对于避世生活状态的期望吗？通过光将潜藏在酒店表象之下的隐性价值呈现出来，是在这间酒店的照明设计中努力思考的方向。

感知
酒店倚山而建，去往酒店的是一条蜿蜒的山路，整个进入酒店的过程也是一次探寻的过程。酒店前面是一片湖水，远处是连绵的山峦，整个环境是如同山水画一般的。远望去，可以清楚的感受到酒店既凸显于山林之中，但又与山林（自然）融为一体的状态。基于此，酒店的设计定位就很清楚：避世度假酒店。远离城市的喧嚣，重新回归自然并感受自然，是这一类型酒店对于其消费者而言最核心的价值，也是照明设计可以介入并发掘出这一价值的全部内容。

探索
我们首先需要向没有来过的客人展示的是：打动人心的夜景形象，这会表现为建筑和景观最为突出的特征，这是“显”
当我们身处酒店空间中，又需要让酒店这一场所没有界限，甚至变成自然的一部分，这是“隐”。
从需求出发，以情感为线索，就很容易帮助我们找到照明设计可以表达的重点：照明的显与隐，也就是：从自然中来，重又回到自然中去。

回归
建筑的坡顶和挑出的檐口，以及它们结合在一起后从山林间不断探出的结构特征，是酒店建筑景观具有象征性的特点，我们用光将这一形象清晰的呈现出来成为那个“打动人心的夜景形象”。挑出的屋檐因为依次分布在不同层高的山林间，远望之下的群落感就会更加的鲜明，这便是“显”。
同时，对所有的顶部和绝大多数的立面都完全没有进行照明处理，这让整个建筑群可以最大限度的融入较暗的环境之中。但是，我们在入口区域和靠近建筑的景观里面用一些低尺度的光照处理，加上从室内透出的温暖柔和的光线，就营造出来一个中间层次，也让两者之间有了一个连接的通道，建立了自然的融合关系，这即是“隐”。
这就是这间酒店建筑景观照明设计的全部秘密，我们从需求出发，进行反向思考，思考表象之下隐藏的价值体现的可能，并以这种可能去找到合适的照明方式。

室内空间是基于同样的设计诉求去思考照明设计的发展。
打动人心的室内空间所呈现的经常是一种美学特征，就是一种文化积累和生活格调混合之后的判断。在这间酒店之中，我们希望借助照明去清晰呈现的是一种中式人文美学特征。
在空间中，这一美学特征在含蓄和凸显这两者之中不断转换，对于凸显的，以强调的重点照明方式来突出照亮，甚至可以略做夸张。而背景形式的部分，则在照明上以连续的面光方式来完整呈现。
对于自然生活场景的光的植入，需要我们有足够细致的对于自然景象的观察和体验。我们经常会因为光透过树叶形成的闪烁效果而迷醉不已，也会长时间驻足在树影之下，看树影随风摇曳的浪漫感觉…… 这些都是我们所向往的与自然亲近的场景，也是可以深刻脑海难以忘却的记忆。所以，我们在室内空间之中，将这些场景以最接近自然状态的表达带给客人，加深客人对于这间酒店融入自然的特征表现。

共生
度假酒店的照明设计，是简单的制造一些漂亮的对象吗？不是的，是基于对商业诉求的准确分析，以人的情绪引导为线索，借助光去找到真实的价值呈现，最终实现酒店成功的永续运营。

Conrad Hotel, Tonglu

Conrad Hangzhou Tonglu has great natural scenery for resorts, which could be the focus of lighting. However, can an establishment with good lighting satisfy our expectation for vacation? We aim to present hidden value of the hotel through lighting during the process of design.

Sensation

The hotel locates by the mountain. One has to travel upon a winding road in order to reach the hotel, which is itself an adventure. A lake lies before the hotel, while mountain ranges extend afar. The whole scene resembles Chinese mountain painting. While looking afar, one may feel the hotel is a unique establishment among mountains, and yet combining itself with the nature. Thus the hotel has a clear design focus: resort. Such hotels locate far away from urban areas, reintegrating itself with nature. Not only does it become the core value for consumers, it also becomes a goal for lighting design.

Exploration.

First we need to demonstrate the dazzling night view to costumers who have not been here. It would present a prominent feature for the architecture and local scenery. This reflects the concept of visibility.

When we stay within the hotel, we need to remove the boundary of hotel, turning it into a part of nature. This is the concept of concealment. One has to begin from demand while working through emotion, in order to discover the focus of lighting design: the concealment of lighting. It comes from nature, and returns wherein as well.

Return

The slant top of building and its cornice, along with how they combine within forests, become the unique feature of the hotel architecture. We present such view via light, and shape it into the dazzling night view. Since the cornice is spread out in woods of different heights, the downward view would be more prominent, reflecting the concept of visibility.

Meanwhile, there are no lightings on all tops and most facades, enabling the whole structure to blend in darker environment. However, we utilize low lighting in entrance and scenery around the architecture, in addition to soft light from bedrooms, creating a middle layer and connecting venue between the two, thus forging a natural bonding. This is the concept of concealment.

This is the secret behind the lighting design of this hotel. We begin from need of clients and conduct reverse thinking, searching for what lies beneath the surface, and discover the proper lighting.

Interior space utilizes the same design concept for lighting. Striking interior space often presents an unique beauty, which is a combination of cultural accumulation and life style. In this hotel, we want to use lighting for presenting Chinese cultural beauty. In space, such beauty alters between implication and emphasis. We focus on the lighting for prominent part with a bit of exaggeration. For background, lighting will be presented through front light.

In order to establish light in natural environment, we need to obtain close observation over natural scenery. We are often tantalized by the twinkling effect created from light shining though leaves. We’d also stay long under the shade, watching how shades wade with wind. We long for such natural scenes, and are highly impressed by them. So when we stay indoors, we need to present such state to customers, enhancing how they feel about the hotel.

Coexistence

Should the lighting design of resorts be limited to generate pretty sights? No, it is conducted through analysis over business requirement, and conveyed through human emotion, and presented via light. Thus the hotel can maintain sustainable management.
