Om The Grand Blue Express Restaurant
Grand Blue Express er en luksuriøs akvarierestaurant i Ueno, Tokyo. Den renoverede plads begrænset til 95 kvm fandt sted på 5. sal i en blandet brugt bygning. Inspireret af luksustog forsøger designet at overvinde de små pladsbegrænsninger for både at rumme akvarierne og give den luksuriøse atmosfære, restauranten sigter efter at implementere. Spisestuen har form som en korridorvogn, der betjener de enkelte kahytter på begge sider. hver kahyt er udstyret med sit akvarium installeret for at efterligne togvinduerne, hvilket skaber indtryk af at være inde i et tog, der krydser under vandet.

- Unikke Egenskaber
- The renovation work for the aquarium dining restaurant took place on the narrow 5th floor of a mixed used building in Ueno, Tokyo. The restaurant is inspired by luxury cruise trains and imitates them to produce a small yet luxurious atmosphere for the dining room. The seats are made into train cabins where the windows are replaced by aquariums. The space turns on to offer an immersive experience with the impression of being inside a train cruising underwater.

- Produktionsteknologi
- The walls are made using dry wall techniques. The floor is covered in ceramic tiles. While the ceiling is finished in vinyl cloth mainly, except for the central corridor ceiling which is covered in special stainless panels that imitates water waves. The aquariums are surrounded by steel frames with a golden baked painting finish. On the top of the frame another round steel panels that allows access to the aquariums for maintenance purposes.
- Designudfordring
- The client abstract when starting this project is to produce a luxury aquarium dining experience, however the total floor area to be used, including the kitchen is no larger than 95sqm and the height under the beams is limited to 2.3m. How can such a narrow place offer a luxury experience was the main challenge leading to the concept of luxury cruise trains. the second challenge was to integrate the aquariums in this composition without altering the concept.
- Forskning
- The experiment of this project was to find a way to imitate a luxury train experience on a concrete building inside the urban jungle of Tokyo. How can a built interior space offer the same experience than a moving dynamic wagon and how can interior materials be used to simulate an automotive space? The combination of material use, dimensional canons, and geometrical shapes were the core of this design exercise.
- Inspiration
- The space was inspired by luxury trains rides which offers various services. The trains are composed of several wagons with special functions and special layouts. The restaurant combines two types of wagons, the cabin and the dinner and merge them to create a dining cabin, and since the restaurant theme is aquarium dining, the train windows are replaced by aquariums to create a simulation of a train cruising under the water.
