The brand name "漫漫日出" (Màn màn rìchū) translates to "Before Sunrise," indicating that the space has already positioned itself for the best viewing angle before the sunrise. Correspondingly, the English name conveys the idea that the beauty of the surroundings has long awaited before the sunrise. This positioning of the spatial advantage in shaping the image of the environment is self-evident.
The building comprises six floors. The ground floor serves as a welcoming lobby, featuring a reception desk and a social space. It also includes a branded main visual wall, catering to past and future guests, enhancing their impression and aiding in social media check-ins. The lobby's decorations are finely selected, with facades featuring contrasting colours, creating an intriguing layering effect amidst shades of grey and white.
The ceiling is adorned with wooden lattice grids, while the tiles exhibit diagonal patterns. The counter is illuminated by the light strips, and the display windows have intricately carved partitions. The ambiance exudes a sense of refinement and elegance, creating a sophisticated atmosphere.
The second to fifth floors comprise four guest rooms, each meticulously decorated in different styles to create distinct impressions. Featuring stacked linear panels to evoke a sense of understated luxury; or incorporating hanging pendant lights and swings to cultivate a romantic ambiance. The theme extends along the window views, rooms facing the sea are equipped with thick, wind-resistant glass curtains, enhancing insulation while maintaining unobstructed views.
Given the harsh coastal climate, material selection is critical. Various types of tiles are deliberately chosen for the facade to circumvent issues such as wall dampness and maintenance. These include heavy and colourful floral tiles, marble-patterned tiles, slate tiles, and wood-patterned tiles, allowing for the creation of layered colour sensations.
For outdoor elements like air-conditioning units, handrails, and armchairs are coated with special anti-corrosion paint. The rooftop of the sixth floor serves as a viewing platform and is additionally equipped with solar panels to enhance energy efficiency. For water supply, heat pump water heaters are installed to facilitate energy conservation and environmental protection efforts.
