About Kaleidoscope Restaurant
Kaleidoscope is a restaurant interior design covering 200 square meters in Taipei, Taiwan. The facade concept is based on a kaleidoscope and presents irregular geometric figures in walnut veneer and laminate sheet with a concrete pattern. Eco-friendly plaster is applied to the walls and ceiling with a trowel finish to create irregular lines. Three fixed steel columns of the former metal house are concealed by arc forms that echo the facade. A hand-drawn painting of a warrior holding a wine bottle marks the main wall, and old southern pine lumber is kept.
