The hotel’s design highlights Kaohsiung’s role as a major shipping city, starting at the reception desk made of stacked pick boxes and other nautical elements including an anchor at the entrance and wire mesh drapery.

In Wok on the Park restaurant, a feature wall resembles a shipping container, while industrial pendants and pops of red give the space character.

The container theme continues in the lower-level function floor, where meeting rooms are clad in orange and yellow corrugated metal.

Much of the design narrative speaks to the hotel’s former use as a well-known 14-story department store.

Corridors are lined in vibrantly colored carpet and striped walls.

An orange and blue palette in guestrooms contrasts terrazzo flooring where the shipping crate motif extends to headboards and carpeting and clock imagery acts as wall décor.

Stylized soda shipping crates reference the property’s history as a former shopping mall.

Images of canned food and other culinary products in guestrooms add to the industrial and shipping theme with quirky touches like “Love This” pillows and playful side tables.

Terrazzo floors, blue wall tiling, and floor-to-ceiling windows allow ocean-inspired bathrooms to shimmer.
