About The Entry

The signage system design of Changzhou's Shunshan Huajianfu Hotel is centered around the theme of "New Four Elegant Matters of Changzhou," capturing the living aesthetic sought after by ancient scholars and incorporating modern Changzhou qualities and hotel aesthetics. Elements from local imagery such as guqin, contemporary architectural outlines, tea leaves, and plum blossoms are integrated into the design, combining visual and spiritual aspects to convey emotions and explore the cultural sensory world. This design perfectly represents the hotel's commitment to offering high-quality accommodations that integrate humanistic art, innovation, refined living, and natural ecology.
Guqin-Inspired Reception Signage
The reception sign design is inspired by the shape of a guqin, with its elongated metal form reminiscent of a horizontal instrument. Golden Chinese characters "接待" (Reception) and English text are aligned side by side, symbolizing the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures. This design not only pays homage to traditional musical arts but also reflects the hotel's attentive service approach toward guests.
Navigating Through Local Architecture
Shunshan Huajianfu Hotel's directional arrow signs draw upon design elements from Changzhou's unique architecture, seamlessly blending regional culture into the modern signage system. These arrows provide clear guidance while serving as essential decorative elements within the hotel space, offering convenient navigation and demonstrating the hotel's respect and preservation of local heritage. In this way, the hotel creates a distinctive environment with strong identity, allowing guests to appreciate both premium services and the distinct local character.
Tea and Numbered Floors: A Poetic Union
The VIP guest floor signs beautifully integrate floor numbers with tea leaf designs, enhancing artistic appeal and highlighting Changzhou's rich tea-making history and craftsmanship, conveying a serene and harmonious lifestyle concept. The combination of metallic colors and smooth edges results in a sleek and refined look, effectively communicating clear information to help visitors easily locate their floors and relevant areas. Each room number sign adheres to a uniform theme and style, featuring the same brass-colored metal material and white numbers for a cohesive and upscale appearance.
