Hotel Buffet Project · Mongolia
Six People, One Afternoon, One Decision
A five-star hotel in Ulaanbaatar chose its buffet tables standing in the showroom — then added a full tabletop set before the container closed.
No written testimonial was filed — the record is the order, the redesigns and the add-on that followed:
Tuushin Hotel had a refurbishment, a budget, and no decision. The buffet tables were the problem: nobody could agree on a style or a pattern from photographs.
The answer was not a better brochure. It was a showroom. During the Canton Fair window, six people from the hotel — including the heads of the departments who would live with the decision — came to PYEIN and stood in front of the tables. The folding buffet table was chosen that afternoon, in person, by the people who would use it.
What followed was the part photographs cannot do: three rounds of 3D modelling, colour matched to the hotel's own wood sample, a pattern built for the property. And once the tables were settled, the hotel added a complete tabletop set — dessert stands, juice dispensers, ice wells, soup warmers, heat lamps — to travel in the same container.
The buffet line the tables were built for
What the hotel wanted:
- A table chosen in the room, not on a screen.
- A pattern that belonged to the property — grass, steel and light, not a catalogue colour.
- A production window that held the 45-day promise.
- One container, one certificate, one arrival.
The brief, in brief, was certainty you could stand next to.
How a Showroom Visit Became a Scene
Three things turned an afternoon in the showroom into a shipped buffet scene.
- The decision made in the room — six stakeholders, one table agreed on the spot, no design left to email.
- Three rounds of 3D, matched to a wood sample — the final pattern in laser-cut stainless, lit acrylic and 4000K marble-look stone.
- Same container for the add-on — the tabletop set added after sign-off, shipped with the tables, destination CO certificate issued.
The tables finished inside the 45-day window, the container left on 29 May, and the hotel received a buffet that had been decided in person.
A scene is easier to approve when someone has already stood next to it.
