The Murray Hong Kong unveils new design
The Murray, Hong Kong, a Niccolo Hotel has unveiled its new design by Foster + Partners, an award-winning global studio for architecture, urbanism and design.
Set to redefine the luxury hospitality scene when it opens in late 2017, the iconic landmark will be transformed into an international luxury hotel, a destination hotel, if we may.


Defined by its distinctive three-storey arches and unique recessed windows, the original structure was designed by British modernist architect Ron Phillips in 1969, and is seen as an early pioneer in sustainable and energy efficient design.


Led by Colin Ward in Hong Kong and Armstrong Yakubu in London, Partners at Foster + Partners, the new design retains elements of tradition and adapts to the needs of sophisticated contemporary living and discerning global travellers.
