Resplendent Ceylon, is a benchmark for boutique, small luxury resorts in Sri Lanka. This resort chain is also a member of the Relais and Chateaux, the global fellowship of individually owned and operated luxury hotels and restaurants. Head office to these hotels operation is located in Nawam Mawatha, Colombo and an area which was 2500 sqft had to be expanded to a 4100 Sqft office.
It was a project that required not only design input and reconfiguration of spaces but also demolition and reconstruction work. Client’s vision for this space was industrial, open and modern. Ceilings were introduced only in enclosed areas such as the board room and the MD'S office whilst rest of the spaces have an exposed sofit. Areas which were once used as a board room and the neighboring office were also amalgamated into the expanded new design of the office.
Tropical green foliage, oriental rugs, floor lamps, chandeliers and framed pictures from Resplendent Ceylon hotels were added to the interior to soften the industrial look.
