The Design

About When the Present Meets the Past Diseño interior de restaurante

Cuando el Presente se Encuentra con el Pasado es un diseño interior de restaurante en la ciudad de Taoyuan, Taiwán, finalizado en agosto de 2015. El proyecto renueva un antiguo restaurante local en un inmueble de 198,34 metros cuadrados. El diseño se inspira en el estilo de Suzhou, China, y aplica la estética china al espacio gastronómico. El techo se integra con una celosía basada en los métodos constructivos chinos en madera. Las tradicionales puertas chinas de madera con celosías talladas dividen los corredores y permiten un uso flexible. Las superficies espejadas aportan amplitud visual, y grandes murales representan escenas tradicionales.

Production Technology: Through design ingenuity, the designer echoes the owner's persistence and touch with the ingredients, and creates a dining experience that can be immersed for the diners through the design aesthetic space through the ancient and modern.
Design Challenge: The exterior of the building retains the structure of the original building, combined with Chinese architectural features, making visitors experience as if they are instantly in the misty and rainy Jiangnan thousands of miles away. The dining area is set up with a number of large-scale murals depicting the beauty of tradition, through which the original appearance of the south is sealed.
Research: The partition wall between the corridor and the corridor adopts the traditional Chinese wooden door, which not only shows the meticulous window grille carvings, but also can use the space flexibly according to the needs of the restaurant.
Inspiration: This project is to create a new dining space for an old local restaurant, echoing the owner's spirit of craftsmanship, and burning the classical misty rain of the south and the creative ingenuity of Taiwanese cuisine into a delicious feast. Inspired by the style of Suzhou, China, the designer extracts the essence of Chinese aesthetics and uses it ingeniously in the space.
Project Duration: The project finished in August 2015 in Taoyuan city, Taiwan.
