The first Ascott in Jiangsu and Zhejiang: KLD-Nanjing Hexi Ascott Hotel City: Nanjing, Jiangsu Address: 108 Bailongjiang East Road, Jianye District Opening: 2023 Number of rooms: 362 Basic rooms: around 1,100 Suites: around 2,000 10th CREDAWARD Architectural Design Award Lighting Design - Hotel - Excellence Award Perfectly integrating art into every corner of the space, creating a journey of physical and mental pleasure Nanjing Hexi Ascott Hotel is located in the center of Hexi CBD, directly connected to Nanjing IFC Mall, and facing Nanjing International Expo Center across the street. Nanjing Ascott has created many wonderful spaces with Nanjing's local elements in the form of a scholarly academy. The lighting design in the hotel plays a key role in highlighting the hotel's concept. The lighting in the hotel is carefully arranged to create an atmosphere reminiscent of Nanjing's poetry and academic heritage. The architectural features of the hotel cleverly incorporate warm and soft lighting equipment, creating a tranquil and elegant feeling, very similar to the atmosphere of the examination room of scholars in the imperial examination era. The lighting cleverly highlights Nanjing's local elements, such as traditional art works, making them the center stage of decoration. Design innovation: The hotel's public areas all use the DALI digital dimming system, which realizes single-lamp management and 1%~100% brightness adjustment, making the creation of lighting scenes extremely refined. Design sustainability: This case uses LED lamps. Through precise calculations, the energy consumption is reduced to the lowest while meeting the functional and effect requirements. At the same time, it has the blessing of an intelligent dimming system, which further improves the hotel's performance in management and energy saving. Project technical highlights: In terms of the performance of the wall art in the first floor corridor of this project, due to the fact that the art is set between the furniture cabinets, it requires very precise light to depict the wall art, and does not want the light to illuminate the cabinet. The ERCO - Optec Contour Spotlight series of cut-off lights perfectly meet this special technical requirement, perfectly presenting the art itself, while the cabinet facade next to it has no light interference.
