Production Technology
According to themodern expression of traditional culture, the entire exterior of the restaurant is covered by a pale gray hazy metal grid, presenting a restrained, subtle oriental beauty. It is these several layers of hazy metal grids that create the most important "space" the exterior and interior. When you step inside, it's as if you are filtered and the noise of the world is left behind. The whole person calms down.
Design Challenge
The atmosphere that designer wants to create is a kind of mistakenly entering the wilderness, the garden, the study room and the Southern Song Dynasty which bring the sense of time-travel, the sense of amazement. This kind of feeling has no violation and pressure, but surprises, happiness and nourishment...
Research
The small hall on the right is six meters high, and the video playing on the wall is a piece of art taken by the designer from the Art Basel in Hong Kong. With the surging of the fog, the whole picture changes from hazy to gradually clear, to full bloom, and then to the haze, which is a metaphor for reincarnations in the world. There is a stage surrounded by semi-translucent gauze in the air, where harp players perform every night. Consumers can only hear the sound but not see the people.
Inspiration
"Huixianlou" wasthe largest restaurant in Kaifeng, Bianliang, Northern Song Dynasty, which a place for gathering place for literati. Therefore, designerjust wanted to create the sameelegance of Song style. The reason for choosing the most prosperous place in Beijing, the Financial Street, is to find an inner peace and the elegant state of the ancients. The hotter and irritable the outside is, the more peace of mind is needed inside.
Project Duration
The project started in Beijing on April 10, 2019 and completed in Beijing on December 20, 2019.
Operation Flow
Market survey, Site survey, Layout plan, Simulation renderings, Construction practices and details.
