Interviews
Grand Interview
Your innovative use of metal lattices and reflective surfaces in Twilight Interior Design creates a mesmerizing interplay between nature imagery and urban reality - could you elaborate on how this design choice enhances the spiritual experience you aimed to create?
We aim to create an interior space that engages in dialogue with the environment, extending the spatial design from the interior to the entire street. Large windows allow for ample natural light, while also providing unobstructed views of the interior from the outside. This adds a touch of modern landscape imagery to the urban streetscape. Before entering the space, the view unfolds from the outside, and the concept of "mountains are not mountains" spreads from the interior to the cityscape.
The 42-square-meter space of Twilight Interior Design serves one group of visitors at a time - what inspired this intimate approach, and how does it contribute to the deeper appreciation of both the beverage and the architectural narrative?
In the store's corporate philosophy, every customer is a VIP who deserves to be treated with utmost hospitality. They hope that through a single drink, customers can experience the culture and hard work behind traditional chicken essence and its emphasis on health. While promoting healthy living, they also contribute to a more aesthetically pleasing community space.To make customers feel at home, we utilize the long, narrow space. Upon entering, customers are immediately drawn to the tall, stylish lattice screen. A central display case showcases the store's most prized products. Following the flow of movement, customers can directly reach the tasting area, which offers a panoramic view of the entire store. Seating is positioned directly opposite the company logo, supported by custom-made velvet wall panels, providing an ideal opportunity for a complete store tour.
In Twilight Interior Design, you have masterfully integrated sapphire blue velvet with marble flooring intersected by golden lines - could you share the conceptual journey that led to this striking combination of materials and colors?
Inspired by the product of chicken bouillon, the translucent gold element flows through the space, set against a backdrop of pristine white marble. Velvet fabric allows the corporate blue to subtly shine through, further highlighting the overall corporate image through the gold element. We conducted extensive research on materials, carefully selecting fabrics, stone, and gold metals, and considering the different surface textures, all of which are reflected in this design.

- Production Technology
- We use high reflectivity of metal and mirror to create a sensual world. It is multi-dimensional and pervasive. The main source of illumination feels as warm as the Sun and stars, mimicking the warmth that chicken essence brings to the body and soul. From afar, mountains glitter gold in the Sun. Sapphire blue velvet and marble floor are intersected by golden lines as if rays of light, guiding the eye to the brand’s logo. As the centerpiece of the store, the sapphire blue counter appears to float on the marble ground, adding a sense of distinctiveness to the product.
- Design Challenge
- It is a bold project, trying to make customers understand the history and culture behind the traditional brand over a 65ml cup of beverage. The space plays an important role. It flows and reflects like rays of golden light, recalling the nourishing nectar of chicken essence. We have created an astonishing space. It is warm and impressive like the product, converting those who have experienced it into endorsers.
- Research
- Through contemporary design, we attempt to evoke a sense of being surrounded by nature during the 30-minute beverage experience provided by the store. Customers’ attention is guided by the contrasting color palette that dominates the storefront into the center of the interior. Inside, large titanium lattices reflect the hubbub of city streets, and at the same time, invoke longing for nature in people’s mind. Desire, imagination and reality intertwine, creating a kaleidoscope of reflections and imagery.
- Inspiration
- The Goal: To create an overall experience with the product, where the space plays an important role.
The Method: Reflections on metal lattices create a sense of illusion where nature imagery and reality intertwine
The Impact: To create a leisure space and bring healthy concepts to the neighboring communities. - Project Duration
- The Interior project started in March 2018 and finished in March 2019 in Taipei, Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- In response to today's health-conscious society, the product aims to put emphasis on the trusting relationship between people. We believe that the simpler the product, the stronger the message behind it should be. Through a seemingly authentic cup of chicken essence, the brand attempts to inspire customers to experience the traditional culture and healthy philosophy, in the meantime, appreciate the natural and aesthetic environment.
