About Sui Han San You Restaurant

Sui Han San You is a restaurant interior of about 1200 square meters set across two floors. The design draws on Tang dynasty architecture, which combines strength and beauty with a balance between rigor and magnificence. Wooden beams and columns form the spatial framework, and walnut columns are arranged along the sides and linked to the ceiling. At the entrance, a walnut column rises from a waterscape and meets a desk surface to form the reception counter. Austere materials and modern techniques reshape the beauty of the interior structure.

Production Technology
1. At the entrance, a walnut column rises out from the waterscape, supporting the ceiling. Besides, it is connected with a desk surface, together constituting a geometric shape and functioning as a reception desk in the foyer.
2. In the reception area at the lobby, the designers added a wooden structure to the high ceiling, so as to lower the height of this area, eliminate the sense of distance from guests, and achieve the harmony and contrast of spatial proportions.
Design Challenge
The client request to add an elevator to the two-storey space for the convenience of those with mobility problems, which was a great challenge.
To create space for the elevator pit, the designers lifted the ground level on the elevator area. To deal with the elevation difference between this area and other areas on 1F, the design team created a slope that extends from the entrance, functioning as a transitional space. Coupled with waterscape, the slope offers a sense of formality and mystery.
