About Last Romance Restaurant dans un bâtiment historique

Last Romance est un aménagement intérieur de restaurant conçu à l'intérieur d'un bâtiment historique en bois de Taipei, achevé en 1949. La structure d'origine et l'aspect extérieur ont été conservés, et les nombreuses traces anciennes de la maison sont reliées en un récit continu. Des carreaux hexagonaux texturés, une mosaïque de carrelage rétro, des carreaux sculptés, des bandes de cuivre et de la fonte se marient à des grilles dorées mates, du verre rétro et des lustres en verre diffusant une lumière blanc chaud. Les deux niveaux couvrent 370 mètres carrés et accueillent la restauration ainsi que des représentations musicales.
