The furniture design of Royalton International Hotel in Weifang, Shandong is based on the new Chinese aesthetics, integrating regional cultural symbols with modern functionality to create a space that combines cultural heritage and quality experience.

 一、Careful selection of materials and craftsmanship

 1. 。A classic combination of solid wood and natural stone. Guest rooms and public areas feature extensive use of FSC-certified sustainable woods (such as walnut and oak), complemented by natural slate and marble. For example, the headboards and wardrobe frames are crafted from solid wood, boasting a delicate, warm texture. The coffee table and desk tops are constructed from slate, known for its high hardness and heat resistance, offering both practicality and aesthetics. This material combination is both environmentally friendly and, through the texture of natural materials, conveys a calm and elegant oriental charm.

  2.  Modern touches of metal and fabric. Metal elements (such as brass handles and stainless steel trim) contrast with fabrics (such as skin-friendly linen and down pillows). Curved fabric sofas in guest rooms are padded with high-density foam and paired with down pillows, providing a comfortable and enveloping feel. Metal lines add a refined, modern touch to the furniture. Metal is also used for pendant lights and screen frames in public areas, creating a luxurious atmosphere through geometric shapes and the play of light and shadow.

3. Innovative Use of Regional Materials While traditional Weifang crafts like silver inlay aren't directly employed, cultural symbols like kites and New Year paintings are incorporated into the furniture design. For example, the guest room carpet draws inspiration from the silhouette of Yunmen Mountain in Qingzhou, using abstract lines to convey regional characteristics. The bedside painting, featuring a Weifang kite, features vibrant colors and becomes a focal point in the space. This "hidden" integration avoids overly cluttered cultural symbols while reinforcing a sense of belonging to the region.

 二、Design style: Contemporary interpretation of new Chinese aesthetics

1.  A fusion of traditional forms and modern lines. While retaining the symmetrical and square forms of traditional Chinese furniture, the furniture's design simplifies intricate carvings. For example, the solid wood wardrobes feature a flat design with metal handles, eschewing the complex ornamentation of traditional wardrobes. Only grooved edges on the doors create a Chinese aesthetic. The curved backs of the dining chairs are ergonomically designed and draw inspiration from the elegant curves of Ming-style armchairs. This "subtractive design" approach ensures that the furniture retains its cultural heritage while embracing modern aesthetics.

 2. Spatial Narrative and Scene Creation The hotel's narrative is based on the theme of "Weifang Cultural Journey." Furniture layouts and decorative details echo different scenes. The conference room features a walnut-colored conference table paired with high-back ergonomic chairs, creating a calm and elegant atmosphere. Wall decorations feature calligraphy and paintings by Weifang historical figures, creating a cultural atmosphere for business negotiations. For leisure, the lobby bar's rattan lounge chairs and solid wood coffee table, paired with greenery and water features, create a cozy "urban oasis." The rooftop Starry Sky Restaurant's transparent glass dining table and metal chairs, with their minimalist design, highlight the stunning night view.

  3. Integrated Art Installations and Furniture Design Some furniture pieces are works of art in their own right. For example, the lobby's spiral staircase handrails feature metal lines abstracting the form of a kite skeleton, echoing the stone mosaic floor. Metal reliefs featuring Weifang New Year paintings are embedded in the elevator walls, transforming traditional art into a modern decorative language. This design technique deeply integrates the furniture with the surroundings, enhancing the artistic value of the space.

 The furniture design of the Royalton International Hotel Weifang is rooted in culture, built on quality, and driven by innovation. Through the careful coordination of materials, the modern interpretation of traditional aesthetics, and the user-friendly application of intelligent technology, a space is created that is both oriental and contemporary. Whether it is the warm texture of the solid wood furniture, the subtle incorporation of kite elements, or the convenient experience of the intelligent guest control system, it all reflects the hotel's pursuit of "a symbiosis of local culture and international quality," providing business and leisure travelers with a stay that combines cultural depth and comfort.
