Interior Design - Hospitality Design 室内设计之餐饮酒店类
意大利设计大师Pierro Lissoni先生设计的The Middle House
镛舍 (The Middle House) 是太古酒店屡获殊荣的「居舍系列」 (The House Collective) 中的第四间酒店，共设有111间客房，当中镛舍服务式住宅－The Middle House Residences提供的102个服务式住宅。酒店室内设计由著名米兰室内设计师Pierro Lissoni操刀设计，建筑由Lissoni Associati 及Wong and Ouyang负责。
镛舍坐落上海中央商业地段，毗邻繁华的南京西路，延续了「居舍系列」的设计理念，氛围和谐而豪华，提供高格调个性化服务，为宾客缔造宾至如归的亲切感。别具一格的客房设计拥有特大户外露台，营造安逸宁静、简约优雅的舒适空间，令宾客能细细品味上海的历史遗韵和都市活力。
In this case, expect monochromatic, zen elegance and lots of space (including plenty of terraces). Past meets present in the sophisticated lobby area, dramatized with walls of green bamboo ceramic tile laid vertically to emphasize the double-height space, while an oversized Venetian chandelier suspended above a central round table.
Behind the entry, the ceiling drops to a more intimate, single-story height, with a sense of home reinforced through a fireplace, contemporary wing chairs, Chinese benches, bone-colored upholstery, and silk area rugs—all a soft and welcome divergence from the dark wood bookshelves, consoles, and side tables that populate the space.
Residences and the 111 guestrooms are separated into two towers, with the rooms chicly designed in understated monochromatic tones, purposely chosen to emphasize natural materials like dark hardwood floors. Open wardrobes in dressing areas give rooms an airy feel, while some rooms boast bronze mesh screens, highlighting a contemporary-meets-traditional aesthetic notable in artwork and carpets that “are all handmade by cutting and reassembling antique Middle Eastern carpets,” reveals Lissoni.
