Inspired by the style of Suzhou, China, the designer extracts the essence of Chinese aesthetics and uses it ingeniously in the space.
- Research
- The partition wall between the corridor and the corridor adopts the traditional Chinese wooden door, which not only shows the meticulous window grille carvings, but also can use the space flexibly according to the needs of the restaurant.
- Challenge
- The exterior of the building retains the structure of the original building, combined with Chinese architectural features, making visitors experience as if they are instantly in the misty and rainy Jiangnan thousands of miles away. The dining area is set up with a number of large-scale murals depicting the beauty of tradition, through which the original appearance of the south is sealed.
- Realization and Technology
- Through design ingenuity, the designer echoes the owner's persistence and touch with the ingredients, and creates a dining experience that can be immersed for the diners through the design aesthetic space through the ancient and modern.
- Operation and Interaction
