回溯到20世纪初的浪漫故事，Loke Thye Kee住宅回忆了一个逝去的时代的精神，但却加入了自己的当代转折，以使生活体验现代化。创办人兼导演科林·谢解释说：“我受到了20世纪槟城浪漫的启发，过去时代的气氛和设计都很迷人。我们希望在设计LTK住宅时能回想起一种类似的魅力，但又加上了一种当代的扭曲，这将使体验现代化，并使之与今天的生活相关。“

Harking back to the romance of the early 1900’s, Loke Thye Kee Residences recalls the spirit of a bygone era but adds its own contemporary twist to modernize the living experience. Colin Seah, Founder-Director explains: “I was very inspired by the romance of Penang in the 1900s, the mood and design of that bygone era was beguiling. We wanted to recall a similar charm in our design for the LTK Residences, but with an added contemporary twist that would modernise the experience and make it relevant for living today.”

以乔治敦的5间战前商店为背景，Loke Thye Kee住宅是对Loke Thye Kee餐厅的补充，为长期和短期客人提供了5间套房。设计在传统的商店庭院和小巷的脚印中，每个套房都有一个郁郁葱葱的花园前厅和一个私人阳台。套房配有高耸的球场屋顶，所有套房都配备齐全的起居室和设施齐全的储藏室。

Set in 5 pre-war shophouses characteristic of Georgetown, Loke Thye Kee Residences complements the Loke Thye Kee restaurant by providing 5 suites for both long and short-term guests. Designed amidst the footprint of the traditional shophouse courtyard and alleyway, each of the 5 suites is preluded by a lush garden forecourt and an intimate private balcony. The suites are furnished with soaring pitch roofs and all suites are well appointed with living areas and full facility pantry spaces.

一层平面图

传统在几个层面上符合当代，从物质性到空间体验。传统的木材硬木地板与定制的现代固定装置形成对比，这些固定装置的设计看起来就像悬浮一样。原始砖墙的粗糙纹理在视觉上被隐藏的LED小湾照明所激活，典型的封闭的虚荣和衣柜空间被誉为透明的玻璃盒子，无缝地延伸到房间的其余部分。地板地毯，垫子织物和家具件被选择，以反映中心主题，增加一个现代扭曲的传统。

The traditional meets the contemporary on several levels, from the materiality to the spatial experience. Traditional timber hardwood floors are contrasted with customized contemporary fixtures that are designed to appear as if levitating. The rough texture of the original brick walls are visually enlivened by hidden LED cove lighting and the typically enclosed vanity and wardrobe spaces are celebrated as transparent glass boxes which seamlessly extend into the rest of the room. Floor rugs, cushion fabrics and furniture pieces were chosen to reflect the central theme of adding a contemporary twist to the traditional.

看KEE的历史

LOKE THYE KEE’S HISTORY

LokeThyeKee这个名字起源于1919年期间在槟城乔治城建造的一座有意义的餐厅大楼。这家餐厅由Loy角Boon和Loy角DAI兄弟创办，服务于传统的海南中餐和西餐。

The name Loke Thye Kee originated from a purpose built restaurant building during 1919 in George Town, Penang. Founded by brothers Loy Kok Boon and Loy Kok Dai, the restaurant served traditional Hainanese Chinese and Western Cuisine.

在过去的80年里，Loke Thye Kee在海南的意思是“幸福之家”，是生日宴会和婚礼派对的首选地点。按照它的名字，它也是许多比赛安排的场所，年轻的准新娘可以在那里第一眼看到他们的追求者。这些不那么微妙的安排会以一种预先安排好的饮酒方式，用鬼鬼祟祟的目光和一小口茶来封住。因此，Loke Thye Kee也被亲切地称为“爱的船”，这也是指它的建筑。

For 80 years, Loke Thye Kee, which in Hainanese means 'House of Happiness', was the choice venue for birthday dinners and wedding parties. True to its name, it was also the venue for many match-making arrangements, where young potential brides-to-be would catch a first glimpse of their suitors. These not- so-subtle arrangements would be sealed with a furtive glance and a sip of tea in a certain pre-arranged drinking style. Hence Loke Thye Kee is also affectionately known as the Love Boat, which also refers to its architecture.

当地商人和慈善家KhoSian Ewe是LokeThyeKeebuilding的最初所有者。20世纪初，邱是槟城最富有的土地所有者，同时也是洛伊家族的房东和朋友。因此，当他们需要一个新的家，他们的餐厅，他建造和租赁的标志性船舶建筑，直到1996年，仍然是它的家。

Local businessman and philanthropist Khoo Sian Ewe was the original owner of the Loke Thye Keebuilding. Khoo was the richest land owner in Penang in the early 1900's and also the landlord and friend of the Loy family. So when they needed a new home for their restaurant, he built and rented to them the iconic ship-inspired building that remained its home until 1996.
