Oasis of Light and Sound

Wel­come to Indone­sia, wel­come to Jakar­ta. Wel­come to the cap­i­tal city of an island nation where life beats fast. Find its pulse, suck in the trop­i­cal air and plunge into the city’s hus­tle and bus­tle, where the sto­ries of tens of mil­lions of peo­ple unfold on the back­drop of the pris­tine Javanese coastline.

Let your­self be tak­en in by the wild green­ery and the urban jun­gle, and take in the hot air of sun­ny days, as well as the cool breezes of long nights spent in good com­pa­ny. Taste exot­ic fruit and go with the hec­tic flow. Expe­ri­ence the cul­ture, get edu­cat­ed, dis­cov­er the unex­pect­ed, and take an adven­ture for once. Bet­ter buck­le in for a wild ride on this eclec­tic roller­coast­er full of sights, sounds and fra­grances – Indone­sia always leaves a last­ing impression.

And when the time comes to slow down, just sit back and take stock of the unique expe­ri­ences you nev­er thought you’d have. For any trav­el­er, the hotel sym­bol­izes a tem­po­rary home, a place where one is well tak­en care of, and where one can find sanc­tu­ary and a safe haven. A high-qual­i­ty hotel also works through all your sens­es and pro­vides the per­fect atmos­phere for con­tem­pla­tion, giv­ing you some down­time to take a step back, sort your thoughts, and make your expe­ri­ences stay with you forever.

Czech glass is the cen­ter­piece for the St. Reg­is Jakarta’s design con­cept. The mon­u­men­tal light instal­la­tions from Nový Bor show off their per­fect sculp­tur­al aes­thet­ics while simul­ta­ne­ous­ly pro­vid­ing an inno­v­a­tive meld­ing of light, sound and motion. The kinet­ic instal­la­tion Sound of Light organ­i­cal­ly dances in the rhythm of the music com­posed by mae­stro Andi Rianto. Thanks to design­er Petra Junová, the piano tones come alive as a pal­pa­ble sym­pho­ny of shapes and light effects. Spend­ing just a few moments in its pres­ence is enough to trans­port you to a calmer, more serene world.

“The glass sculp­ture in the lob­by of the St. Reg­is Jakar­ta con­sists of 1192 com­po­nents made of Czech crys­tal glass.”

“I enjoy watch­ing strange, unusu­al, nat­ur­al, and phys­i­cal phe­nom­e­na. And I love work­ing them into my designs.”

Petra Junová is Lasvit Senior Design­er. She stud­ied at Mendel Uni­ver­si­ty in Brno, Czech Repub­lic and the Uni­ver­si­tat Politèc­ni­ca de Valèn­cia, Spain.

In her “glass” port­fo­lio, we find high­ly artis­tic projects like the Chan­gi Air­port in Sin­ga­pore, the Eco­park in Hanoi, Icon Siam Shop­ping Mall in Bangkok or the Elite Pavil­ion Suites in Kuala Lumpur.
