MB Residence
The MB Residence took shape much like thoughts and images fill the mind when traveling someplace new - things accumulated in juxtaposition, creating new perspectives. The clients’ love of travel, owning a luxury travel agency and having lived abroad for extended periods of time, plus having eclectic taste in all things extraordinary, became touchstones for the project. The design began with an assessment of travel and eclecticism and how their attributes might inform the design process. The idea of rooms as "destinations," each defined using different materials and form-work, was a way to infuse each space with a unique sense of place while creating surprises and refreshing the senses along the way.The ideas of contemporary open-plan layout...

Resolution Signature Restaurant
A few years after the opening of Hotel Lone, Restaurant L - one of three restaurants in the hotel, was rebranded as ResoLution Signature Restaurant. 3LHD was involved in the transformation of a part of the restaurant space into a show cooking kitchen that will be used for presenting new techniques to chefs, for cooking schools, team building activities etc.The design and the atmosphere are based on the recognizable Hotel Lone design with a somewhat modified material repertoire. Smoked oak wood and American walnut discreetly supplement the dominant terazzo floor and lattice ceiling, pointing out that the function of the space, and its character, has changed.The kitchen leaves an impression of a modern and cosy “home” kitchen, despite its pro...

Perianth Hotel
The design of the 38 rooms is directly inspired by the history and character of the original Art Deco building, and by the contemporary life of the ancient city in which it is located. The main challenge of the project lay in the re-working of the layout of the building. Originally built to house retail space, offices and apartments in an era that gave little thought to the future legacy of buildings, the structure was arranged to suit the use intended at the time. The resulting irregularity of the building’s structure required an innovative approach to re-organising the layout so that it’s new use would work within it. More recently the building interior has been stripped back leaving only the façade and structural elements to provide the... More

Throckmorton Renovation
Our aesthetically astute clients bought a 1980’s Bud Oglesby designed townhouse with the intention of renovating it for themselves and their growing art collection while staying true to the original design. The project had a sophisticated section so our goal was to modernize the spaces in both use and technology while also rectifying awkward and outdated spatial relationships.
Robert Yu Photography
In the original layout the utilitarian spaces were on full view from the front door. Our intent was to create a more formal entry sequence and conceal the laundry, garage, and utility rooms. To do so, we opened up the enclosed kitchen and reorganized the support spaces behind a complementary curved wall that ties back into Oglesby&rsq... More
