the four seasons (hong kong)

(December, 2005. Central, Hong Kong.)

Was at Michelle's wedding banquet at the newly opened Four Seasons Hotel in Hong Kong, and the place with the most interesting composition, lighting... was the ladies' bathroom. :P

Still packing away... but seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. (Am also armed with huge #@$%-off roll of bubble wrap. :P)

Mmm, mirrors.

(And, I now note, a number of elements repeated horizontally. Neat juxtaposition.)

Regarding bathrooms: I was at a restaurant like that, once. High price tag, with fairly ordinary decor in the main eating area, but the (single-person) men's room was startlingly nice. Tiny track lighting provided warm illumination and focused attention on the sink, which was a converted washbasin (antique-looking), with stones, sand, and a few dried flowers decorating it...and other touches I can't remember. Overall, the effect was striking. (And made me wonder why they hadn't paid as much attention to the rest of the place. :P )

Good luck with the packing and bubble-wrap. :) Where are you moving *to*?

I've been shooting into mirrors a *lot*. I think I just like 'em. :P And re:bathrooms, I always tend to use that as something of an internal restaurant/hotel/venue rating gauge thing. I think of it as a secondary, auxilary experience. It's so nice to walk into a nicely decorated restroom... (Am I crazy or what??)

And the answer to your question is:
New York City. :P
