Nature
The original shape of the land has been preserved as
much as possible. Ancient coconut trees (over 60 years old) were kept to
maintain the authenticity of the location. Many trees are incorporated
within the design of the Hotel. The expansive and uncluttered garden is
representative of the simplicity of life one finds when one is open to
it. It brings a feeling of peacefulness and serenity that luxuriant
vegetation may not express so effectively. Placed throughout the Hotel’s
garden and walkways are numerous bonsai trees, a parallel to the Thai
service where each Guest is taken into personal consideration, with
care. On a calm clear night with no rain, you may enjoy counting little
rabbits admiring the yellow full moon. The moon represents a coveted
person. The rabbits are those who crave for this person's heart in vain.
This is the kind of broken-heart phenomenon which may occur to anybody |

Media
The architect has decided to use simple raw materials
for the construction and decoration of the Hotel. Many local craftworks
have been used in this process. This concept creates a blend of
simplicity together with the inherent practicality using materials
available on hand. All furniture were made specifically on site during
the construction. The decor seeks to becalm the senses and plays down
the luxuriance. This minimalist environment engenders a certain simplicity
to fulfill one’s life without aspiring to excess, a suitably honorable
way to behave in a Buddhist country |
| |
|
|
Tradition
The overall image of the Hotel is a blending of the
ancient Javanese house-village design with a traditional Thai southern
slow-slung roof, a structure which impels the visitor to humbly bow
one’s head on entry and exit, thus showing respect to the householder.
The two identical stone sculptures in front of the lobby are not mortars
but are fashioned on traditional banana-leaf ceremonial pieces used for
receptions. In Thai they are called Bai Sri and will welcome you right
on your arrival

Spirits
Some of the objects and structures of the decoration are
the reflection of local beliefs. The main stairs leading to the Upper
Floor recall the design of the traditional Buddhist temple with its
mirrors chasing away the bad spirits and conversely the Lotus, a holy
flower, attracting the good one. The twin phalluses, for example, well
known as Shiva Lueng in Thai, represent a Hindu God's sexual organ which
Samui fishermen have worshipped for long as their protector against the
mischievous Goddess of the sea. The phallus miniatures however, named
Palad Kik, have the same shape as Siva Leung only smaller. Normally
Palad Kik are worn on the body, usually at the waist, and are considered
as magic amulets or lucky charms for the wearer inviting good business
and prosperity. The cubic blocks on the lawn are designed as one-of-a-
kind spirit houses which serve to spiritually protect both staff and
guests who stay here. The cubism is styled after the bases of Buddhist
pagodas which are placed atop each other, biggest to the smallest at the
top. Its solid structure symbolizes the powerful strength of the
residents' morale and the hotel's longevity |
