About Silver Lining Restaurant i Bar

Un bon bar és el lloc perfecte per animar la teva vida i, de vegades, millorar el teu estat d'ànim, tant si surts amb amics com si vas sol. Aquest projecte és un bar de fusió ubicat a la primera planta d'un edifici antic al centre de Taipei. Combinant la preferència del propietari pels arcs i els tocs exòtics, el disseny visualitza el concepte d'una Nit a través de la Vall. Els tons verd fosc omplen l'espai, mentre que les columnes del centre divideixen la sala en zones de cuina i àrees d'asseguda. Amb un espai una mica limitat, dues zones en forma de L invertida permeten una circulació interior fluida i una experiència gastronòmica acollidora.

Tags: Hsiao-ching Hu, J.Y. Design, Silver Lining, Restaurant & Bar, a Night through the Valley
Production Technology: Frosted glass is used for the windows to create an image of swaying moonlight passing through the shadows of woods that cover the entire valley, luring passing travelers in. Along with the green and gray, accessories and construction methods that imitate nature also enhance the tranquil experience, creating a moment of peace among the mountains.
Design Challenge: Delicate use of reflections, just like moonlight shining down through the leaves, can be found in both the acrylic mirrors that hang from the ceiling and hand-made lamps on the bar. From simple but precise design, along with creative use of complex materials, a magical space comes into existence at a seemingly mundane street corner.
Research: A straight bar extends all the way into the room. Behind the bar and the double tables, gypsum is used to form a rough surface on the walls. With belt lights hovering over, the texture creates a unique sense of wilderness, mimicking weathered mountain walls.
Inspiration: Combining the owner's preference for arches and exotic touches, the design visualizes the concept, "a Night through the Valley." Dark green tones fill up the space, while the columns in the center divide the room into kitchen and seating sections. With somewhat limited space, two inverted L-shaped areas allow for smooth interior traffic and a cozy dining experience.
Project Duration: The project finished in May 2021 in Taipei City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow: The rugged, unsaturated touch on the dark green walls simulates the misty views in a forest. The texture on the floor is created with a customized organic paint to visualize a stream that flows through the valley.
