云端中的阿玛尼,香雾里的哈利法
耸立于云雾之中的828米高迪拜哈利法塔( Burj Khalifa )是世界上最高建筑,全球最奢华时尚酒店迪拜阿玛尼(Armani Hotel Dubai)就生长在这里。几乎与所有传统和流行的酒店风格不同,乔治阿玛尼为自己,也为迪拜艾玛尔地产集团设计开发了一个“独版”,这位时装大师首次把个人的美学经典从产品移到空间里。
在2010年4月27日隆重开幕之前,迪拜阿玛尼酒店和世界第一高塔一起经历了五年多的建造过程,那几年间年逾七旬的乔治・阿玛尼先生为酒店室内设计产品设计和视觉设计(VI)精心操刀,亲力亲为,每一件酒店物品都体现出了他的标志性元素,从大堂到餐厅到酒吧,到精品店和SPA,再到客房里,那种由他自己独创的意大利式的纯粹优雅简约精致休闲与舒适的既可百搭,又能混界的风格在酒店里无所不在,让人过目难忘,心生喜爱。
那些看似单调却十分丰富复杂的颜色,那些洗练干净的线条和独特纹理的无缝融合,那些巧妙调节灯光创造而出的宁静神秘氛围,那些把客人很快领到一处优雅心境里的魔力,乔治・阿玛尼都做到了。在第一个酒店室内设计作品里,他把自己创作的最个性化的图形式样和材料巧妙地融合到酒店各层复杂的空间环境里,把阿玛尼时尚美学与酒店实用功能完美结合,这种艺术混搭本领是他经久不衰的独门绝活,无论在时装上香水瓶上,还是在高大的酒店里,非他人轻易所能。
今年再来迪拜阿玛尼酒店,住进酒店最高的39层,凭窗眺望脚下的世界最大Shopping Mall迪拜购物中心,和那个每晚必炫的巨大音乐喷泉,不能不佩服这个疯狂建筑的疯狂价值,也为阿玛尼和艾玛尔集团合作出如此细腻的作品深感赞叹。夜晚,哈利法塔璀璨华丽的灯光秀上演,音乐喷泉的巨大声浪掀动起广场上兴奋的人潮,坐在三层米其林星级印度餐厅的阳台上,眼前宛如一个繁荣盛世的嘉年华大舞台,在全景式灯光和音乐的热情拥抱中,客人很难不受感染,对酒店,对餐食,对一切,瞬间充满激情。
迪拜阿玛尼酒店占据哈利法塔主楼中39层以下的楼层,共有11种不同房型的160间客房,以及8个各有独创品牌的餐厅和酒吧。哈利法塔其它楼层被1000间豪华公寓和最高楼层上的“云中办公室”和会议室占有,最高秒速17.5米的电梯把主人和客人们不停地发射上去和坠落下来,好在电梯里居然完全没有速度感,甚至也无耳鸣,就这个真的让人折服, 15亿美元的投资果然货真价实。深夜,迪拜阿玛尼酒店是高级夜生活人群的打卡地。阿玛尼的时尚精髓和招牌款待在这位大师亲自设计的酒吧休息厅露台和俱乐部里尽情展现,当地的阔绰居民和各国来访的艺术家们和DJ们跳动着充满活力的节奏,他们在这里聊天,社交,跳舞到凌晨。
酒店首层正中央的Armani Galleria展示着来自Giorgio Armani Prive系列的高级时装配饰,这是迪拜第一家也是唯一一家可以买到乔治・阿玛尼(Giorgio Armani) Prive系列服装的地方,包括手表手袋珠宝和香水。
当然还有一些必须要“带回家的阿玛尼生活方式”,这是乔治・阿玛尼为酒店精心挑选的一部分特别的产品,几个迷人的精品店为住客和来宾准备了意大利糖果,精心制作的巧克力,美味蜂蜜和蜜饯,意大利脆饼,杏仁和糖衣,还有几种可供选择的茶,所有优雅的包装都有阿玛尼的签名。人们说,这是阿玛尼给客人们的“一个甜蜜的选择”。
如果还有闲暇,可以预订1.2万平方英尺的阿玛尼水疗中心,享受阿玛尼设计的定制感官体验,包括热浴创意水疗美食天然芳香波依斯(Bois)茉莉花油和玉石油的养生治疗,以及无微不至独特卓越的服务。
居于香雾缭绕的哈利法塔之中,迪拜阿玛尼酒店以自己的生活方式和简奢主义的优雅款待全世界每一位来者,近十年来早已成为迪拜商务和娱乐的首选之地,而且越做越精,从无懈怠,就像艺术活力旺盛的乔治阿玛尼一样,更加令人刮目相看。
Armani in the Clouds,Khalifa in the Mist
The 828meterhigh Burj Khalifa towering in the clouds is the tallest building in the world, and is home to the world‘s most luxurious and stylish hotel, Armani Hotel Dubai. Almost unlike all traditional or popular hotels,Giorgio Armani designed and developed an ”Exclusive version” for himself and for Emaar Group.The master has transferred his personal aesthetics from fashion to space for the frst time.
Before the grand opening on April 27,2010, Armani Hotel Dubai and the world‘s tallest tower had undergone more than five years of construction. In those years, Mr. Giorgio Armani, who was over 70 years old, took charge of the interior design, product design and visual image(VI). From the lobby to the restaurant and bar, from the boutique shops and SPA to the guest rooms, each hotel item reflects his iconic elements. His original creation of the Italian style is a mix between that of pure, elegant, simple, exquisite,casual and comfortable, and the conclusive versatile style pervasive in the hotel is unforgettable.
Those rich and complex colors, those seamless blend of clean lines and unique textures, the mysterious atmosphere created by the skillful lighting and the magic that quickly brings the guests to a state of elegance, Giorgio Armani has achieved them all. In his first hotel interior design work,he skillfully put his most personalized graphics, styles and materials into the complex space of the hotel, combining Armani fashion aesthetics with the hotel‘s practical functions.Such mix and match of art is his unique skills, whether in fashion, perfume bottles or in grand hotels, no one can easily emulate.
This year, we came again to the Armani Hotel Dubai and checked in at the hotel‘s highest 39th floors, overlooking the world‘s largest Shopping Mall, The Dubai Mall, and the huge music fountain that dazzles every night. You can‘t help but admire the crazy value of this crazy building and how wonderful is the delicate collaboration between Armani and the Emaar Group.
At night, Burj Khalifa‘s gorgeous light show and the huge fountain show excited the crowds on the square. Sitting on the balcony at 3rd floor in the Michelinstarred Indian restaurant Armani/Amal, embraced by a flamboyant carnival stage of panoramic lighting and music, it is difficult not to be moved by a passion for the hotel, the meal, the moment and everything.
Armani Hotel Dubai features 160 rooms in 11 room types and 8 restaurants and bars with original brands. Other floors of the Burj Khalifa are occupied by 1,000 luxury apartments,”Cloud Offices” and conference rooms on the highest floor.The elevator speed is 17.5 meters per second at its maximum yet no sense of speed or tinnitus would be felt inside. We are convinced that the 1.5 billion investment is truly worthwhile.
Late at night, Armani Hotel Dubai turns into the check in place for the highbrow nightlife crowd. Armani‘s fashion essence and signature hospitality are displayed in the bar, lounge, terrace and club. The local residents and artists from all over the world and the DJs are dancing with the most dynamic rhythm. They are here to chatter, socialize and dance before dawn.
The Armani/Galleria on the first floor displays the highend accessories from the Giorgio Armani Prive Collection. This is the only place in Dubai to buy Giorgio Armani Prive Collection including watches and handbags, jewelry and perfume.
Some Armani lifestyles must be brought home, which are the special products that George Armani has carefully selected for the hotel. Several charming boutiques prepare for guests and visitors the Italian confectionery
chocolate, delicious honey, dried fruit, Italian shortbread, almonds and several teas to choose from. All the elegant packaging has Armani‘s signature. People say that this is ”a sweet choice” from Armani for the guests.
If you have time, book a treatment in the 12,000squarefoot Armani/SPA and enjoy the custommade sensory experience of Armani, including a hot bath, creative spa cuisine, natural aroma Bois, jasmine oil and jade oil and its outstanding service.
In the fragrant Burj Khalifa ,Armani Hotel Dubai has treated every guest from all over the world with its signature lifestyle and elegance. It has become the first choice for business and entertainment in Dubai in the past ten years. Just like the artistically energetic Giorgio Armani himself, Armani Hotel Dubai only becomes more and more refined.
