Design Details
- Unique Properties
- This case is a restaurant design, designers through the geometric shape of the superposition, with interesting thinking into the combination of indoor and outdoor furniture. The staggering of the spherical lamp and the artistic device between the virtual and the real makes the space warm and vivid instantaneously. It lays a lively space tone and weakens the rendering of the background. The whole space shows its own personality in the blending of fashion and art.
- Inspiration
- Han Han's "triple gate" is a favorite reading for many Chinese post-80s students, and it is no exception for the male host of the project. After many years of running his own business, he also has a new understanding of the book. Therefore, whether it is a salute in the form of appearance or a triple door for dining environment, food quality and price, the designers strive to present it perfectly in this case.
- Research
- The attraction between two people is called love, and the entanglement between all things forms the universe. The mystery of it has never been abandoned by human beings. Therefore, in such a macro and micro space, on the background wall beside the gathering table, the designers made a group of star devices that seemed to follow a certain track to control each other's movement with the combination of ultra-thin stone and metal lines, and the imported paint as the base.
- Challenge
- Stairs are also a part of the design of ingenious thinking. For boys, getting a spaceship is more exciting than having a car model. But it's a strange design to put a car or a spaceship in such a shop. So, the designers decided to make the passage to the second floor a ritual for astronauts to enter and leave the cabin. From the handrail part of the stairs to the private room area upstairs, the laminated stained glass with superior texture is used.
- Realization and Technology
- The snow white stone in the hall is embedded with the logo of stainless steel metal texture, giving the first impression of high quality texture. In addition to the "triple gate" setting at the entrance, designers have added such elements to the interior many times. The three arches that rise in turn below the stairs suggest different stages of life. Combined with the mustard yellow chandelier at the corner, its color pays homage to Mondrian's classic red blue yellow color.
- Operation and Interaction
- The exterior wall was painted with sunset yellow paint to make it stand out in the gray and black of the block. Match the green plants with contrasting colors to match the positioning of its community store and bring people a bright and warm feeling. In addition, in order to keep the color bright for a long time, the designers used the food grade Teflon material to put on the invisible protective clothing.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project started in March, 2019 in Chengdu and finished in September, 2019 in Chengdu.
- Specifications
- The project covers a total of 265 square meters. On the second floor, a simple functional area division is made to meet the diverse needs of customers. The designers made a bar table by extending the concept of mosubi ring.
