About In Between Octaves Casa de Ramen Japonesa

Este es un proyecto de diseño que integra elementos orientales en un centro comercial occidentalizado. El sistema cromático general del espacio es principalmente blanco y veta de madera. Una serie de linternas con caligrafía manuscrita se utiliza para enmarcar la cocina abierta y las áreas de comedor como una partitura musical. Los chefs de ramen cocinan con el espíritu de Isshokenmei. Desde el momento en que hacen fila hasta el final de su comida, los comensales muestran su amor por el ramen y el Tsukemen, como una hermosa melodía que resuena en el espacio. Las notas interpretan continuamente el espacio japonés contemporáneo con bandas sonoras entre las partituras espaciales.

Press Kit

Unique Properties
In a westernized shopping mall, we incorporate oriental elements into the space.
Through architectural manipulation technique, a grid sequence is created where the central axis runs through the space, creating a relationship between the new and old parallel axes. An array of hand-written calligraphy lanterns is used to frame the outer kitchen and dining areas like a musical score.
Notes continuously perform the contemporary Japanese space with sound tracks between the spatial scores.
Dimensions & Packaging
Space area 74 square meters

Production Technology
We made the following attempts to visualize the spatial atmosphere we want to convey:
1. Open kitchen bar with sliding window
2. Wooden trusses with atmospheric lighting
3. Stainless steel square expanded mesh to add details to the truss facade
4. Facade metal grille and wooden grille
5. Long wall tiles extend against textured white wallpaper
6. Long linear wall washer
7. Handwritten Japanese calligraphy lantern
8. The looming floor-to-ceiling glass
9. Brand logo styling lamp with clear details
Design Challenge
We must complete the construction within 45 days to catch up with the Christmas events in the area where the restaurant is located.
Research
The ramen shop owner insists on using natural ingredients such as pork bones to cook the secret soup every week, in order to let gourmets taste the delicious soup.
The owner told us, when we think back to eating ramen in Japan, we remember how lucky we were to get seats at the counter. The way they shook the noodles, accompanied by their spirited shouts, made us even more excited for the ramen to be served.
How to make this space reflect the focused spirit of ramen chef is our goal.
Inspiration
When we think back to eating ramen in Japan, we remember how lucky we were to get seats at the counter. From there, we could closely observe the ramen artisans meticulously preparing each bowl. The way they shook the noodles, accompanied by their spirited shouts, made us even more excited for the ramen to be served.
Project Duration
The project was designed in October 2022.
The project began construction in November 2022.
The restaurant had a trial operation in December 2022.
The restaurant officially opened in January 2023 in New Taipei City, Taiwan.
Operation Flow
When customers enter the store, you can observe the ramen chef's preparation process due to the open kitchen. The sound of the ramen chef shaking the noodles and his spirited shouting make people look forward to the ramen being served.
The inner and outer kitchens form an O-shaped circulation line through two food delivery ports, allowing for smooth execution of food preparation, soup making, meal delivery, recycling, and cleaning.
