The Design

About Last Romance Restaurant in einem historischen Gebäude

Last Romance ist ein Restaurant-Interieur, das in einem historischen Holzgebäude in Taipeh entstand, welches 1949 fertiggestellt wurde. Die originale Struktur und das äußere Erscheinungsbild wurden bewahrt, und die vielen alten Spuren des Hauses fügen sich zu einer durchgehenden Erzählung zusammen. Strukturierte Sechseckfliesen, Retro-Fliesenmosaike, geschnitzte Kacheln, Kupferbänder und Gusseisen werden mit nebelgoldenen Gitterelementen, Retro-Glas und Glaskronleuchtern in warmweißem Licht kombiniert. Die beiden Geschosse umfassen 370 Quadratmeter und bieten Raum für Gastronomie und musikalische Darbietungen.
