About Mays Jatetxe Begetariano baten Barne Diseinua

Mays 152 metro koadroko azalera duen jatetxe begetariano baten barne diseinua da. Diseinuak alde egiten du espazio begetariano tradizionaletan ohikoa den estilo erlijiosotik. Terrazzo gris-beltza, kristal urdin eta perla partikulekin, fatxada, zorua, mostradorea eta mahai gainak estaltzen ditu. Terrazzoa berariaz egin zen proiektu honetarako. Sabaiko kobrezko kateek muino leunak iradokitzen dituzte. Metalezko harrera-horma kurbatuak tunel bat osatzen du, bezeroak jangelara gidatzen dituena. Zoruan txertatutako metalezko ertzek eremu ezberdinak zedarritzen dituzte. Kristalezko leiho handiek eguneko argia barrura ekartzen dute.

Production Technology
The YesDesign project team pays high attention to innovation in materials and structures. The gray black terrazzo facade with blue crystal and pearl particles readily catch the eyes of people. The reception area of metal background is presented in a specially designed arc shape, like a time tunnel, directing consumers to the dining area. Grey terrazzo and metal are organically integrated in vision, well coordinated without losing the sense of details. The abundant light shines through large glass windows into the interior space, while showing a glimpse of the internal layers of space.
Design Challenge
In the past, old fashioned vegetarian restaurants were usually associated with the "Buddhist rituals", mostly in the religious realm, but how to combine the brand attitude of a natural space, while subverting people's perceptions and maintaining a sense of space without losing details, was the challenge of this design.
Research
A custom version of terrazzo was chosen for this project. The designer searched almost every available flooring material and traveled to the material markets in 2 cities, Wuhan and Guangzhou, and finally found an inkstone manufacturer in Wuhan who was willing to customize the terrazzo for this design.
Since most regular terrazzo is gray cement with black and white stones, and we needed to use blue crystal particles and pearl particles, every single particle in the terrazzo that ended up being used in this project was chosen by the designer himself.
Inspiration
Vegetarianism is a very healthy lifestyle in modern society, and in Guangdong there are folk customs of vegetarianism on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, and there are even legends that eating vegetarian food all year round will reverse your growth, which is more useful than using cosmetics. So, the designer thought of creating a space that "inversed time and space", together with the dishes, to make a concept space that breaks the rules.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2018 in Wuhan and finished in February 2019 in Wuhan.
Operation Flow
The interior space is fully covered with the gray black terrazzo veneers, extending from the ground to the counter and tabletop. The ceiling reinterprets the natural earth. With carefully arranged copper chains, it transforms rolling hills into a scenery with ultimate beautiful visual effects. The ground lines are carefully arranged with metal edges to define the functions of different spaces. The Nordic decorations are visible everywhere, on intimate terms with people.
