Shangri-La Hotel Singapore
Bond Design Studio Inc. have brought the garden inside the hotel and used this concept for the interiors in many ways, such as the stone feature wall, black stone pool and bird pattern carpet in the lounge. This was a renovation project, in the first established Shangri-la hotel, so the main challenge Bond Design Studio Inc. faced was the need to keep the hotel brand image. They started with decoding the brand background and carefully sophisticating it. Keeping the history of the hotel and at the same time modernising it. This was the biggest challenge that Bond Design Studio Inc. faced within the whole project, being worth it for its place as one of the best hotels in the world.
