The Design
About Soda Port Restaurace
Soda Port obsahuje soukromou jídelní kabinu Tato a hlavní jídelní sál. Tato má otevřenou kuchyni se sloupem připomínajícím věž Macao. Hlavní sál má barovou část a jídelní koutek. Barová oblast je moderní retro prostor vyložený mramorovým kamenem. Jeho vzory vycházejí z dlážděné ulice náměstí Senado Square, zatímco dekorace paravánů oživují klasické vzory vitrážového skla. Design nápojového baru navrací atmosféru Macaa z 50. let. Po jeho levé straně se nachází soukromý jídelní koutek v kontextu historických Ruinas de Sao Paulo s výraznou stěnou obloženou portugalskými kachličkami.

- Production Technology
- The use of materials is a combination of modern metallic and traditional construction materials. In the dining hall, the pattern of Flagstone Street of Senado Square is reproduced in marble stones. Meanwhile, the epitome of historic Ruínas de São Paulo is recreated in modern metal. Against it is a feature wall built with traditional Portuguese blue-white tiles.
- Design Challenge
- Wall in the ‘TATO’ is decorated with wooden pillars to create a relief effect. To achieve sound insulation function, suede material is mounted onto each pillar manually. For best air quality in the open kitchen context, ventilation pipes are set on the pillar. Several drawings are made for production, installation and final visual effect. Achieving ceiling design is another challenge. Aluminum planks of various sizes are made to incorporate amplifiers, lighting systems and complete the pattern.
- Research
- Research materials come mainly from Macau Government Tourism Office's official website information. Design synchronizes with the government's mission to sustain innovative thinking to introduce Macau's culture to the world and shape the peninsula into a world-class city of tourism and leisure.
- Inspiration
- Design concept embraces Macau's unique Chinese European culture which penetrates every corner of the restaurant. Interior layout is done to allow an interactive operation. Visitors and staff are free to communicate without barriers. Diners are not only eaters but also audience of the chef's magical culinary skills. The inviting atmosphere is a representation of Macau's culture to welcome tourists from all over the world to experience this world of diversity, colours, food and entertainment.
- Project Duration
- G/F., Legend Palace Hotel, Macau Fisherman's Wharf, Avenida da Amizade, Macau SAR, China.
- Operation Flow
- It highlights Macau as a hospitable city, design concept incorporates an interactive mode. The fine-dining compartment is an open kitchen bar while the kitchen in the main dining hall is visible through glass panels. So guests are both diners and audience of chefs' culinary skills.
