Loke Thye Kee住宅(豪华套房)于2015年由新加坡设计部完成。

Loke Thye Kee Residences comprises of 5 luxuriously appointed suites contained within a row of restored heritage shophouses along Penang Road in George Town. A combination of historic Straits Chinese architecture which is unique to Penang, each suite is furnished with contemporary luxuries. Each of our suites comes with its own private entrance, an equipped kitchenette with an outdoor terrace. Although located at the heart of George Town, Loke Thye Kee Residences maintains an exceptionally private atmosphere amidst the hustle and bustle of the city.

乐之记住宅由五间豪华的套房组成，这些套房位于乔治城槟城道一排修复后的文物商铺内。这是一个历史悠久的海峡中国建筑的组合，这是槟城独有的，每套房都配备了当代的奢侈品。我们的每个套房都有自己的私人入口，配备了带室外露台的小厨房。尽管位于乔治城的中心地带，但在城市的喧嚣和喧嚣中，洛克·齐基住宅仍保持着一种异常私密的气氛。

The architect’s description: Loke Thye Kee Residences is situated in the heart of Georgetown Penang, one of 5 Malaysian UNESCO world sites rich in heritage. MOD’s design draws inspiration from this heritage and specifically the historic Loke Thye Kee restaurant, its 100-year-old namesake and neighbor. Both the restaurant and the residences re developed by the same owner, 1919 Global Sdn Bhd. 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.”

建筑师的描述：Loke Thye Kee住宅位于乔治敦槟城的中心地带，这是马来西亚教科文组织世界遗产丰富的5处遗址之一。国防部的设计灵感来自这一遗产，特别是历史悠久的Loke Thye Kee餐厅，它有着百年历史的同名和邻居。餐厅和住宅都是由同一个业主开发的，1919年环球Sdn Bhd。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。“

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.

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。

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.

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。

Floor rugs, cushion fabrics and furniture pieces were chosen to reflect the central theme of adding a contemporary twist to the traditional. MOD also designed all the branding and in-room collateral in order to provide a holistic experience, ranging from a quirky pillow menu, to a food map navigating the area’s street food, the room service menu, TV menu etc. The artwork was specially commissioned for the project and it reflects the spirit of historic Penang framed in a modern way.

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。国防部还设计了所有品牌和室内附属品，以提供一种整体体验，从古怪的枕头菜单，到导航该地区街头食品的食品地图、客房服务菜单、电视菜单等。这些艺术品是专门为该项目委托的，它以现代的方式体现了历史上槟城的精神。
