The swimming pool at W Hong Kong boasts indulgences like no other. Looking out over the beautiful island, the iconic pool features an incredible and intricate giant-scale mosaic of a butterfly graphic, designed and created by Australian graphic designer Fabio Ongarato.
Wet, the nature-inspired oasis located in the heart of the city, boasts the mural with butterflies designed in Bisazza glass tile that appear to flit across the walls and ceiling, adding even further glamour to this fabulous pool with a view.
