Charles H.
Interiors, Custom Furniture and Lighting
Situated in the Four Seasons Hotel in Seoul, South Korea, Charles H is inspired by the intersection of historic speakeasies in New England as well as traditional royal Korean palace dress and ornamentation. A discrete entrance leads guests into a lavish space that begins in a barrel vault complete with exposed theater lights. It terminates into the entrance to the main space or a concealed entryway leading to a hidden lounge area with plush seating and an exclusive mini bar. The main space features a custom-made bar comprised of metal paneling that was pressed on sting ray skins, a glass mosaic floor inspired by the mother-of-pearl inlay techniques of Korean lacquerware, a custom-made trio of brass tables etched with artwork inspired by traditional ink landscape paintings, and a custom bar cart designed to convert into a simple DJ station.
