WEZO HOTEL Chengdu Qingyang District, China
WEZO is not only a synthesis which gathers living, dining, bar, art culture, life style, but also a platform of brands collection. It’s creating a circle of art life and a space of social contact for urban youth. Essentially, WEZO is a combination of diversified life style, culture, art and business.
By business logic, the critical factor of operating a hotel is occupancy, but in other vision WEZO is expecting more. It is not only a hotel which is designed of architectural aesthetics, but also from the needs of people, it provides a platform of chatting for people who are in same business or same interest, it would be a culture strongholds for connecting people. That’s why we called it “social hotel”, WEZO is rather a culture brand than a hotel.
WEZO holds it’s unique attitude, it’s like opening a blind box from outside to inside once you enter it. Transition space of hall has a bridge water side, the simplified design can be in line with the tonality of light luxury. Stepping into WEZO, well-proportioned space layout formed a zigzag moving line, classic glass bricks wall, decorations like wooden horse and wooden pillar from India, western style electric stove, geometrical shaped long light, it combines characteristics of Chinese and western aesthetics.
Enter the mystery selection shop, there is a kind of atmosphere of castle. Design of flow style exhibition hall is quite amorous. The Corridor type is matched with wooden panes, showing slightly classical charm.
Open-ended cafe & bar is vintage style. Guests would like to stay for a while because the space is under original grape trellis shape of stone pillar.
WEZO is just like a painting of oriental enjoyable courtyard & landscape which is combined with rockery, stack of water, trees, cabin and bar.
Tea house on the roof with glass walls around and thatch rooftop is quite interesting. You can both overlook the city and enjoy the sunshine through the small skylight while sitting next to the square table inside.
41 guest rooms are located from 2nd to the 7th floor. Design of rooms is simple but loose and comfortable, WEZO is paying more attention to the experience of living. Creating an easy life of traditional Chengdu by placing in old furniture.
Under “City Updating” concept, Shaocheng is now changing. WEZO was transformed from office building of a gas company which was built in 1980’s, how to take advantage of this old building, and add new form of business, let it precipitate and integrate into this area in time.
WEZO is attracting new people here into the old block of Chengdu by it’s own way, get involved in local community through diversity and open attitude, connecting different group by it’s uniqueness. After connection, the possibility of creativity could happen, ideas for city update are always by those kind of people from a mini place. It is happening now at WEZO.

围坐 都市社交精品酒店 WEZO urban social hotel
一个集居住、餐饮、酒吧、艺术文化、生活方式于一体的酒店mini
综合体，也是一个品牌集合的平台，与艺术生活相关的圈层，更是城市青年Social阵地。因而围坐，本质上而言是一个容纳着不同生活方式，关于文化、艺术、商业的合集。
从商业逻辑来说，“如何给受众一个来这里的理由”，也即如何“保证持续稳定的人流”，的确是开店需要考虑的关键因素，但跳脱出来看，围坐想要带来的东西似乎更多。围坐不仅仅停留在空间建筑美学层面的设计，回到‘人’的层面。同一行业或者有着共同兴趣的人，能够聚在这里讨论聊天，围炉而坐，让围坐持续成为一个人与人发生交流、连接的文化据点，从而具有社交属性，与其说围坐是打造一个酒店，不如说是在创造一个文化品牌。
整个围坐有自己的态度。进入围坐，像打开一个又一个盲盒那般从外到内、从下到上潜入内部。进门厅的过渡空间，取“小桥流水”之意，经过简化的设计方式得以与轻奢的调性符合。步入其中，错致的空间布局，形成曲折贯通的动线；经典的玻璃砖墙、从印度带回来的木马和木柱、一个有着西式味的电子火炉，几何形的长灯，几种不同风格的事物组合在一起形成中式中有西式、西式中有中式的特点。
打开具有“神秘感”的买手店，在不算开阔的空间里，却有一种幽深古堡的气质。流动展厅的设计也颇有风情。廊道式的形式配上木质窗格，稍显古典韵味。
咖啡兼酒吧的店铺则是外放的，两者均有着轻松的复古特性。酒吧保留了原来建筑的‘葡萄架’石柱，做一个廊下空间，给人停留、驻足的感觉。
一方天井，一方造景。院内特意保留下来的假山、叠水、树，结合旁边的小屋、餐厅，宛如一幅东方写意庭院山水画卷庭。
围坐的屋顶玻璃茶室也很有趣。一席茅草屋顶，中间用现代手法剖出一方小窗，四周玻璃幕墙，屋内一个方桌，远可眺城市，近可享阳光。
二至七层是四十一间客房。房间设计去繁存简，松弛而自在，注重起居之间的体验感。间以老家具的点缀，营建出老成都安逸的生活形态。
在“城市更新”的概念下，成都少城也正处于改变之中。而围坐则改造自一栋诞生于八九十年代的燃气公司办公楼，如何利用这栋楼，注入新的业态，然后逐步产生改变，在时间里去沉淀并慢慢融入这里，用围坐自己的方式吸引新的人群来到市井的老成都街区；以多元、开放地态度参与到本地社区；慢慢沉淀自身的独特性，从而去连接不同的人群。在连接之后，共创的可能性也许就会发生，而城市的改变也许就是从这些人、这些空间的局部开始新生命。围坐想要的可能正在一点点发生。
