The Upper House André Fu Suite

This is the ideal time to go back to my original design for The Upper House and recreate it as a private residence with pieces from my own collection. What a wonderful chance to reflect on the social, artistic and cultural dynamism of Hong Kong today.

A decade after André Fu and his studio received international accolade following his work with The Upper House, the collaboration between the architect and the hotel continues with the unveiling of the André Fu Suite on the hotel's level 48. The new 1,960 square feet suite pays homage to the long-lasting relationship between Fu and The Upper House. This namesake suite enhances his original design intention to create a sophisticated and modern residence. It embodies Fu's design ethos of "relaxed luxury" and provides residents with a peek into his personal journey with the hotel that jumpstarted his career. The André Fu Suite will open at the end of March 2021. 

As guests explore and interact with the surroundings during their stay, they enter and discover the world of André Fu Living and his collaboration with The House that has spanned over a decade. Framed sketches of the architect’s original concept designs of the Hotel from 15 years ago adorn the walls, over 100 pieces of homeware are curated from the André Fu Living Collection and hand-selected books from the architect’s personal library each translate the shared vision and history of André Fu and The House into an immersive living experience. It is designed to act as a conduit for experiential and authentic connections to people and place. 

The suite’s design is a testament to the sensibilities of its designer and his ability to bring a calm simplicity into interior spaces. Using a palette of mineral blue, dusty mink and pale ivory, the space will feature pieces from the existing André Fu Living collection, which first made its debut in Milan during Salone del Mobile 2019, as well as presenting brand new unseen pieces from his soon-to-debut Art Deco Garden collection – including a collaboration with British heritage wall covering specialist, de Gournay and lounge seatings upholstered in Loro Piana’s finest wools. From the sculptural ottoman to the fluid structure of the Mid-Century inspired furniture, and the refined porcelain tableware delicately garnished with artisan brush gilding, each piece within the suite is an expression of Fu’s signature understated sophistication and fascination with craftsmanship, focusing not simply on how beautiful things look but how they make guests feel.

Designed by award-winning architect Andre Fu, The Upper House, Hong Kong, is highly individualised and provides a sense of understated luxury. The House offers 117 rooms, all featuring scenic harbour or island views, including 21 suites and 2 penthouses, and begin at 730 sqft – the largest in Hong Kong. 

Named to symbolise an ‘upward journey’ to a retreat above the bustllng city, natural materials, original sculpture installations and seamlessly proportioned spaces are integrated to create a sophisticated and modern "Asian influenced" residence. The lush green surrounds of The Lawn offer guests a respite with relaxing cocktails or complimentary group wellness classes. A warm and inviting Sky Lounge, featuring a central fireplace, welcomes guests day and night and plays host to the House’s globally renowned signature talk series, Up Close.
