说起日本，便不得不提及大阪，自奈良时代伊始，借助临海的地理优势逐渐发展成重要的贸易港。如今，大阪市的北部和南部构成了其主要的城市核心部分，北部是商业和行政的中心，而南部城区则是休闲娱乐为主，也是大阪真正夜生活的代表。
Speaking of Japan, we have to mention Osaka, since the beginning of the Nara era, with the geographical advantage of the sea gradually developed into an important trading port. Today, the northern and southern parts of the city make up the main urban core, with the northern part being the commercial and administrative center, and the southern part of the city being the main recreational area and representative of Osaka's true nightlife.

酒店的28楼是由Simplicity（绪方慎一郎）设计的现代日式旅馆风格的客房，它被称为“Gensui”（“gen”意为“最深的黑色”，“sui”意为“水”，体现了大阪海洋文化的特征），旨在为客人塑造传统日式美学的同时，还注入了当代的气息。

融合美食、文化、手工艺和设计，形成自己独有的日本文化设计理念。It combines food, culture, crafts anddesign to form its own unique Japanesecultural design concept.
当电梯门开时，眼前便立即进入到一片寂静的黑暗之中。这种浓郁的配色与酒店浅色的西式客房和公共区域形成了鲜明的对比。位于该楼层的Sabo茶廊，是专门为客人提供早餐和各种日式饮品的空间，地面铺设了代表“元”概念的深色六角形瓷砖，呼应当地文化，并提升品茶体验。
When the elevator doors opened, the eyes were immediately plunged into silent darkness. This strong color scheme is in stark contrast to the hotel's light-colored Western-style rooms and public areas. The Sabo Tea Lounge on this floor, a space dedicated to breakfast and a variety of Japanese drinks, is covered with dark hexagonal tiles representing the "Yuan" concept, echoing the local culture and enhancing the tea tasting experience.

Gensui的客房和套房则体现了日式生活美学，既根植于传统，又极具新时代的特色。入口处旨在模仿当地家庭的空间布局形式，欢迎客人脱下鞋子走进室内，体验赤脚或穿着拖鞋在草席地板上行走的乐趣。
Gensui's guest rooms and suites embody the aesthetic of Japanese living, rooted in tradition but also very new age characteristics. The entrance is designed to mimic the spatial layout of a local home, welcoming guests to take off their shoes and step inside to experience the joy of walking barefoot or wearing slippers on the straw mat floor.
榻榻米在日本人的生活中占有重要地位，可用于用餐、工作和睡觉等日常活动。Gensui为游客构建了一处尽可能真实地深入体验当地文化的机会。标志性的低矮座椅由绪方慎一郎所定制设计，希望客人坐得更靠近地面。
Tatami plays an important role in Japanese life and can be used for daily activities such as eating, working and sleeping. Gensui has created an opportunity for visitors to experience the local culture as authensibly as possible. The signature low seating, custom-designed by Ogichiro Shinjata, wants guests to sit closer to the ground.
此外，多种天然材料的选用是为了提升空间的舒适性，一些日式细节包括蒲团式平台床、滑动门、纸床头板和竹制百叶窗等也被融入其中，营造出温馨的亲密感，绪方慎一郎标志性的曲线和圆角设计则为场所进一步增添了温度。
In addition, a variety of natural materials were used to enhance the comfort of the space, while Japanese details including futon platform beds, sliding doors, paper headboards and bamboo shutters were also incorporated to create a warm intimacy, while Shinata's signature curves and rounded corners add further warmth to the place.

绪方慎一郎还负责设计了酒店36楼的水疗区，该区域内部设有五间理疗室与配套桑拿浴室。一个16m长的游泳池和一个日式浴池。其设计灵感的关键是“空白”及“过渡——从阴到阳、从公共到私人、从外到内”的概念，通过米色或白色土、木材和石材等材料色调来进行表达。
Shinata was also responsible for the design of the hotel's 36th floor spa area, which includes five treatment rooms and an accompanying sauna. A 16m long swimming pool and a Japanese bath. Key to its design inspiration is the concept of "blank space" and "transition - from Yin to Yang, from public to private, from outside to inside", expressed through material tones such as beige or white earth, wood and stone.
在大阪这座极具国际化的城市，现已正式开业四季酒店，旨在为客人提供现代日式旅馆的居住体验，同时积极邀请他们深入地去了解大阪的过去与当下。
Now officially opened in this cosmopolitan city, Four Seasons Hotel aims to provide guests with the experience of living in a modern ryokan while actively inviting them to delve deeper into Osaka's past and present.
