About Elegance Restaurant

Elegance is a restaurant interior located in Taipei. The 152 square meter dining space follows the arc-shaped form of the building, and floor-to-ceiling windows open the room to the city view. Vertical decorative panels with milled curved lines gain strength from the curved structure, so heavy decoration is avoided. Dim lighting and small dot lights mark the length and the height of the room. Wooden textures, gold frames and grey mirrors add warmth and widen the view. The intent is a calm and refreshing place for guests.

Press Kit

Unique Properties: The extension of the arc-shaped space and the wide-open floor-to-ceiling windows from left to right play a unique role in the setting of urban chic. Warm beams emitted through the dim lighting, mixed-media of solid and void, and the overlapping effect between warm wooden texture and earth tone help balance function and esthetic.
Dimensions & Packaging: 152 ㎡
Tags: Solid wood, Grey Mirror, Iron, Leather, Marble, Steel plate, Laminate
Production Technology: Strength is given to the vertical decorative panels by the arc-shaped structure without excessive decorative techniques applied. Also, with dot lights’ guiding, the length and height of the space is echoed and merged with the change of various colors in the space. This large-scale dining space is turned into a rich feast of imagination. Wooden texture and gold frames bring out warmth and elegance to the space. One can leave worries and the bustling city behind upon entering this bright and sophisticated meet-up place.
Design Challenge: The arc-shaped space is balanced by the horizontal lines on the wall and which allow the interior furnishings and city landscape to unify in the space. The concept of solid and void is widely applied through mirrors in the space, and it helps lighten up both the form and the imagery and also mirrors the appearance of the fan-shaped space; as a result, the space and the view are broadened and lighten. We wish patrons a refreshing and relaxing atmosphere in this indoor space.
Project Duration: The project started in July 2020 and finished in September 2020 in Taipei.
Operation Flow: The design is the continuity of the arc-shaped, rough surface and texture language of the architecture and is incorporated with curved lines, milling depth of the decorative panels to produce a fulfilled long and winding effect. Lighting in the restaurant helps create beams and further illustrates the elegant ambiance and circulation among people, shadows and space.
Inspiration: Luster but refined, abundant but tranquil. The design conforms to architectural texture and dismantles western elements to integrate with oriental tones. These compound elements stand out against each other and also fused together. The fan-shaped space is distinctively planned to translate layers of modernity and diversity.
