                    <p>Three weeks before the presentation of my design, I still didn’t know exactly what I would submit, so I decided to visit Kyoto to steep myself in Japanese culture. I came across a historic sumiya – a house of entertainment which embodies the supreme hospitality of the Edo Period. It was full of little Japanese-style rooms, each with a unique interior and ambiance, and I thought it fitted perfectly with the hotel’s philosophy of providing the best service and hospitality in an out-of-the-ordinary setting.</p>
