Secan Hotel Qingdao, Curio Collection by Hilton

Time etches rings on the rock, and history accumulates weight in the cracks. The quarry was the starting point of the earth's rebirth - those chiseled rock walls have now become the hardest memory of the city. The stone remains silent, yet it conceals stories that have endured for millions of years. They once supported the backbone of the entire city with their rough edges and corners, and after falling silent, they became the soil where modern civilization took root with a harmonious posture. Nowadays, it has shed its industrial edge and is nurturing a gentle vitality. The mark of the stone is precisely in this way, engraving an eternal dialogue between carving and creation.The brand refuses the monotony through the coli- sion of different colors. The visual language is becoming younger and may incorporate elements of popular culture to attract users' attention and stimulate positive emotions. Unconventional proportions, breaking the frame- work of functionalism, retaining the "imperfect" brushstrokes, combining the original and the regen- erated to shape the vitality of the new species. The brand has a strong sense of dynamics, with tilted compositions, bouncing movement trajectories that loop infinitely, and dense arrangements of points, lines, and surfaces. Pass on the energy of enthusiasm and extroversion.  The mineral veins in the stone patterns flow like life codes. Through the accumulation of time, they endow the "stones" with the original energy to awaken after slumbering for a thousand years.  Deconstructing stone with contemporary design, a layered aesthetic that combines hardness and softness is created through cutting and recombination, allowing "stone" to trans- form through its integration with different materials. Rocks crack and solidify into natural sculptures, using light and shadow as chisels to strip away redundments, completing self-expression from geological fragments to abstract installa- tions. Chinese Analysis The name "Shican" is derived from the natural scenery along the coast of Qingdao. The character "Shi" implies the land- form of a quarry, and "can" echoes the spectacular sight of the hotel setting sun with its rosy glow. The allusion can be traced back to the "Nine Chapters" of the "Chu Ci" : "The rocks are upright and the rosy light is brilliant", which implies the interweaving of rocks and light and shadow. English Creativity "Secan" is a transliteration, pronounced as [si:kæn], which is close in pronunciation to the Chinese word "Shi can".The hotel has a total of 161 guest rooms, including 149 standard rooms and 12 suites. It has nearly 1,000 dining seats, including 12 Chinese banquet private rooms, a western restaurant that can accommodate more than 150 people, a 900-square-meter grand banquet hall, multiple multi-function halls, and several divisible conference rooms.
