QUSHUI-LANTING RESORT HOTEL , HANGZHOU
THE MAIN ATTRACTION AND FULCRUM OF THIS RESORT HOTEL HINGES ON ITS INTERIOR DESIGN AND GUESTS MAY ABSOLUTELY TAKE A FANCY TO BATHING ENTERTAINMENT
Wang Bing , the principle designer and chief architect , would be delighted with a particular preference for associating bathing with spirituality - a lively ritual - to build community and connection , and hence a thought to be spared for an artistic renovation to the bathhouses in the conventional sense . Thus , Qushui-Lanting Resort Hotel is a practice of Wang Bing ’ s belief in offering superb spa experiences to its customers through the design .
From ancient Rome ’ s quintessential bathhouses during its heyday to the sophisticated showers in the modern day , whether be of hygienic , therapeutic , ritual or presumably social purposes , plenty of cultures seem to have a tendency with clever and pleasurable contrivances to facilitate the enjoyment of bathing .
