CASE STUDY
Building on this foundation, the Orange Hotel 3.0 version has further distilled the concept of LOHAS— Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability as the core of our design philosophy, creating opportunities for travellers to reconnect with nature and themselves, even during busy journeys.
LOHAS: Redefining the urban business travel experience
At our Shanghai Tianlin Road property, Orange Hotel 3.0 version systematically integrates the spirit of LOHAS into spatial design and operational details, crafting an optimized journey of experience:
Liberty An open, multifunctional lobby layout breaks away from the traditional hotel boundaries, creating a more welcoming and inclusive arrival experience.
Orange Using orange, green, and brown as the primary palette, the design language draws from nature to create a warm, fresh, and alive space.
Healthy From circulation planning to functional zoning, the breakfast experience is carefully curated: The Low- Fat Healthy Zone, the Bread and Coffee Zone, and the Carbohydrate Happiness Zone offer balanced nutrition and comfort, catering to different travelers’ rhythms of life.
Activity Dynamic elements are infused into the space, supporting guests’ movement freely from gentle stretching to aerobic exercise and helping them maintain an active state during travel.
Sustainability Starting from the construction phase, the team adopted eco-friendly, prefabricated building methods and selected renewable materials such as straw and orange peel derivatives, embedding sustainable development principles into every detail of hotel operations.
A sustainable daily life of sunshine, freshness, and vitality Orange Hotel 3.0 version focuses on the functionality and efficiency of spaces, and on awakening the natural resonance between body and environment through design. Here, sunlight is not just a concept, but a tangible warmth flowing through the space; greenery is not mere decoration, but a source of healing and rejuvenation; vitality is not a slogan, but a state naturally awakened during every journey.
With a design language rooted in health, nature, and sustainability, Orange Hotel 3.0 version responds to the deep needs of today’ s travelers for relaxation and renewal, allowing every guest to effortlessly enjoy a journey filled with nature, freshness, and the spirit of LOHAS, even amidst the city’ s pace.
