About The Sea Refuses No River Design intérieur de restaurant

« The Sea Refuses No River » (La mer ne refuse aucune rivière) est l'aménagement intérieur d'un restaurant Teppanyaki situé dans le quartier central de Shanghai. La surface intérieure est de 478 mètres carrés et l'espace paysager de 800 mètres carrés. Le projet associe des lignes modernes à la structure en bois traditionnelle chinoise, évoquant les châssis de fenêtres en fer des maisons Shikumen. Les matériaux comprennent du cuivre imitant l'acier inoxydable, de la roche volcanique de Hainan, du placage de chêne, du marbre gris et des textiles souples. Un tapis mural réalisé à la main habille le couloir. Les murs incurvés et le plafond à gradins suggèrent le mouvement des vagues.
