GrandHyatt – 2022 Collection : The House of Shí Wǔ 十五之家 (WM ONLY)

Commemorate joyous reunions this Mid-Autumn as Grand Hyatt Kuala Lumpur reunites with award-winning Malaysian fashion designer, Melinda Looi, for another collaborative journey featuring an avant-garde mooncake collection celebrating the classic heritage of Peranakan culture in Malaysia.

The House of Shí Wǔ十五之家’, unlike any other, is a Mid-Autumn advent calendar fused with the essence of journeying down the Peranakan-themed memory lane with an illustrious exterior that is also an accolade to the timeless architectures and motifs found in the artistry of iconic Peranakan homes throughout the Straits of Malaysia.

The term Shí Wǔ, or ‘fifteen’, represents the 15th day of the 8th month in the Chinese calendar where Mid-Autumn Festival is celebrated. It is also the number of curated items that are hidden within the ‘house’, respectively categorized into food, fun and flair, to which should each be unveiled daily within the 15 days leading up to Mid-Autumn Festival for the best element of surprise.

Comprising a novel collection of four classic mooncakes along with numerous curated treasures of different kinds, ‘The House of Shí Wǔ 十五之家’ resembles an intricate wooden structure of a miniature house that moonlights as a multipurpose box, complemented by a grand and functional canvas bag.
