Anji Hantian Resort Yunju Tent Hotel

True luxury is not splendor but a delicate balance between people and nature. Yunju Tent Hotel sits on the ten-thousand-mu tea sea of the Jiulong Mountains in Anji, where eleven tent-like structures draw inspiration from sailing ships, with mast-and-sail membrane frames that carry the meaning of free travel and respond to environment and travel culture. The graceful forms break the straight-line building idiom, with terraces combined like a sailboat's deck and a top floor almost fully covered by membrane, presenting unique curves. In planning, the designers prioritized the environment over the building's shape, siting structures along terrain to protect original vegetation and create a quiet sensory experience within nature. Like sails on vessels sailing across a sea of tea, the structures offer panoramic mountain views. The logo evolves the Jiulong Mountains through topology into soft forms echoing clouds, and the hotel becomes a carrier for landscape that interprets the romantic imagery of a vast sea of clouds. From heart, senses, and experience, the cloud theme creates ethereal, pure meaning, emphasizing beauty beyond objects. Rooms use large floor-to-ceiling windows to maximize natural scenery, and the design simplifies space through a borderless, de-styled approach, naming each room after the sensory experience of the mountain path. The arrival is guided by a shaft of skylight up the stairs to the second floor, where plain walls give way to structural expression and layered shadow. An open-air cinema and infinity pool on the tea sea let guests feel water flow and find calm, while the living room arranges contemporary furnishings in a borderless leisure mode, with gauze curtains recording the shape of the wind. Panoramic windows link interior and nature, and the membrane extensions to outdoor balconies fuse rest into the forest. The 2,800-square-meter hotel, designed by Slow Coral Design, offers slow life among tea mountains and bamboo.
