Design Details
- Unique Properties
- Fangfang had a bold and capricious match. It broke the traditional fine dining rules, redefined the high-end dining form, and seamlessly connected the French dinner restaurant with the cool cocktail bar in a space. The designer hopes to create an absolute texture and luxuriant atmosphere just like the Lido dance hall in this project. It's just like ice and fire in the food, they realized the sublimation and integration of the whole in seemingly contradictory opposition and collision.
- Inspiration
- Fangfang is a new type of restaurant food brand with the promotion of pub as the main line. The dark purple curtain at the entrance blocks the view, combining with the impressionist theme of the restaurant, giving a mysterious and modern feeling. Through the bar, people instantly enter another vast world. It is quite different from the dark atmosphere. The semi package sofa seats are generous and comfortable. The overall layout has the typical delicacy and elegance of the French restaurant.
- Research
- Fangfang is a new style restaurant food brand with the promotion of pub as the main line. The latest store is located on the third floor of the southern district of Suzhou Center, the new landmark of Suzhou. That is a gathering place for many fashionable young people and also a concentrated exhibition area for the concept of urban avant-garde. Nayun Design undertook this store design and tailor-created a modern new image with subversive significance for it.
- Challenge
- The difference is that designers have shown a dining environment with a sense of accomplishment in the space capsule through a minimal device model, exaggerated expression and a modeling design with future sense. The application of a large number of curves has a sense of rhythm. The theme tone is mainly white and gray close to white, with red roses as ornament. It combines abstraction with fantasy, and gives people a brand new experience of novelty, science fiction and fun.
- Realization and Technology
- Raising the curtain, first of all, there is a dark romantic cocktail bar at the entrance. Geometrical patterns, tough lines, gorgeous colors, luxurious materials, reversible wine brands and colorful breathing light on the roof all make this place not only full of entertainment atmosphere, but also has unique characteristics.
- Operation and Interaction
- This case draws on the essence of L' Atelier de Joel Rubuchon and combining high saturation color with the concept of art decoration. The small round table is surrounded by a semicircle sofa, with clear priorities and full of changes. When the lights rotate, the whole space looks like a huge colored glaze lamp hanging with glittering view and Changing magnificence.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in March 2018 in Suzhou and finished in June 2018 in Suzhou.
- Specifications
- The project covers a total of 521 square meters. Through the bar, get around the crowd, pull open a curtain again, and instantly enter another vast world. The overall layout here makes people feel like they are surrounded by all kinds of delicious food.
