The Opposite House Hotel opened in the summer of 2008 in Beijing’s vibrant Sanlitun district. Designed by Kengo Kuma & Associates, the hotel’s 99 contemporary guest rooms are among the largest in Beijing with more than half being over 70 sqm. The rooms are strikingly simple with natural wooden floors and subtle touches of Chinese décor, lending each one a sense of place. The name, The Opposite House, is derived from a translation of a Chinese word, which historically described the building located opposite the main house in a courtyard where guests would stay.

The Opposite House is the first of a number of hotels being developed in China, Hong Kong and the UK by Swire Hotels, which will all be distinctive hotels, individually named and each uniquely designed by renowned architects and designers. Please Check The Following Design…

The Romanticism Shop is a Women’s Clothing in Hangzhou, China brand with about 500 stores in China. Japanese architects Keiichiro Sako and Takeshi Ishizaka of SAKO Architects, have now designed a few locations for the brand in the city of Hangzhou. Seen below is the second Romanticism shop they designed. In an interview with movingcities.org, Keiichiro Sako has described the design: The client asked me for a design that no one could copy. There were no other requests. My design style is that if a client has a requirement, I try to get a grip on his thinking and bring it further. As there were no requirements, I questioned the concept of the boutique, the clothes and the relationship between body and space. In the end I designed an organic net winding through the space. Clothes are our second skin, space a third skin, and my design is positioned in between the clothes and space. It’s like a piece of furniture that you can hang clothes on and it changes its shape into partition, counter, chair, furniture as well as railing.

Oak  wood Kitchen Cabinets

Popularity
Finished natural oak is a durable wood, and is the most popular wood species for kitchen cabinetry.

Natural Beauty
Oak is a very strong, open-grained hardwood that ranges in color from salmon-pink to almost white. The wood is mostly straight-grained, with a coarse texture. Oak can have dramatic variations in color, knots and grain pattern. Our cabinets offer a rich look and feel, containing natural characteristics such as pin knots and flecks, and may contain streaks of green, gold and black mineral deposits.

Wood Finish
The prominent flame-shaped grain pattern is beautifully enhanced when our finish color is applied. Our all wood cabinets are finished using an 11 step finishing process which results in unparalleled beauty. If you would like to see a sample before buying we offer free samples.
