Production Technology

The half-circle plaza in front of the facade of the restaurant and the tilted staircases with embedded light strips contribute to a sense of earnestness. The quotation-mark-shaped wooden frame and the diamond shape pattern on the door panel with diverse use of colors create an exotic feeling that eventually attracts visual focus and attention. In addition, the reeded glass panel is applied to maintain privacy while ensuring the introduction of natural lighting.

Design Challenge

The great-sized floor-to-ceiling glass panels and the shading ensure immense introduction of sunlight while maintaining the privacy for the customers to feel comfortable eating. The illumination of the space is improved while it does not become too harsh to the eye. The overall open-floor plan and the translucency increases the use of electricity during the day.

Project Duration

This project is finished in October 2020 in Taichung, Taiwan.

Operation Flow

Entering the restaurant, one can immediately sense that the designer reinterprets and repackages the Korean cuisine with a modern technique and semi-industrial style. A consistent design language with diverse changes of lighting and volumes are the main elements that weaved into the gene of the space. The curved light strips and the flooring transitions between wooden and stone materials both contribute to an intuitive sense of spatial transition.

Research

The embedded light strips in the kitchen and dining areas serve to divide and to guide the flow subconsciously. The kitchen is designed to be semi-open-plan with a bar counter arrangement. Through the transparent glass panels, customers can easily look into the kitchen for the smoked barbeque display and the cooking process. The suspended shelving allows convenient arrangement of utensils that gives a sense of neatness to the restaurant.

Inspiration

The naming of the restaurant "Ribbon" symbolizes a festive atmosphere on special days and holidays. With use of patterns, lines, irregular cuts, and rhythmic combination, the designer creates a sense of ceremony with a great amount of natural lighting that expands the visual perception with consistency. The precise yet fluid interior lighting design adds elegance to the ambience in shades of brown and gray.
