Back to Nature

As an external consultant for naked Retreats in the Shanghai office, I lead the design team in the development naked Stables. It was the first retreat by luxury hospitality brand naked, and the first to achieve LEED Platinum certification.

We blended Asian and African details, accentuating African hospitality and warmth, embedded in the Asian mountainside. We designed each building to minimize environmental impact and to camouflage them in the dense nature. Furthermore, all materials used in this project were environmentally friendly and all buildings facing the most optimal position.

In 3 months, I personally conducted site visits, developed sketches, and drawings, elaborated the interior FF&E design standard, conceived the project budget, and prepared detailed punch lists.
